Chapter 1125: [Bonus chapter] Rose Petal Bath

Chapter 1125: [Bonus chapter] Rose Petal Bath"Do you have more to say, Mr. Husband? Why don't you just say it while we have time?"         

Shui Xian took her words seriously and tapped his chin as he thought about it long and hard before he nodded. He turned her around and looked at her face with a bright smile. He held her face in his hands as they faced each other and said, "As the moon shines on this earth to illuminate the way for people in the dark, you're my guiding light. You shine with your own ethereal light straight into my heart. And you illuminated my world with your grace and mysteries."     

Raelle seemed to be listening to him with relish and said, "Oh? Why are you so obsessed with the moon tonight?"     

"It's beyond my control," said Shui Xian. "The more I look at the moon, the more it's reminding me of you. It's like you and the moon are inseparable."     

"Leave the moon alone, it has a more important job to do."     

"What?" he asked curiously.     

"To shine on the earth and make it less dark for the people."     

"Oh."     

"It has a purpose in life to give people hope. All of us see the same moon but not all of us associate the moon with the same thing. Some associate it with the person they love the most like you just did. Some associate it with beauty. Some find it a way to dream of a world they haven't seen before. Some just see it as a symbol of nature and some like me find it just like a mirror that reflects the sunlight to us in a different way. Because scientifically, that's what it does."     

Shui Xian's smile dropped a little as he felt like his wife was ruining the mood by saying this again. Even if she was right.     

Raelle pinched his cheek as she added, "Don't be upset. What I mean is that we just all see the same thing but have different perceptions of the same thing. The same rice nurtures different kinds of people. Good and bad. The same moon can be different things to people. A different kind of hope and I realized, sometimes it can also be people's companion."     

"That's true," agreed Shui Xian. He suddenly shook his head, "Okay. Stop swaying me with your words. I'll leave the moon away. I was just trying to compliment my wife. How did we get here from that?"     

"I don't know."     

"Don't act so innocent. You're the reason we got distracted."     

"Okay. I did it on purpose. Who told you to keep complimenting me? Since we met you had been doing it. I don't wanna hear these compliments."     

He rubbed the side of her head saying, "In a gown of elegance and adorned with rare jewels, you outshine them all with your inner beauty and captivating spirit. How can I stop complimenting?"     

"Here we go again," said Raelle and pulled away from him. "I'm leaving."     

Shui Xian held her hand to stop her and said, "Don't leave me."     

"Oh? So, why don't you join me?"     

"Huh?"     

Raelle walked over and touched the button of his shirt with her nail. She skillfully opened the button exposing his chest and moved her finger teasingly on his skin as she said, "You are welcome to join me in the bathtub." Shui Xian gulped and his breath hitched. Raelle didn't stop there and continued unbuttoning his shirt slowly as she added, "Didn't you just say I'm more beautiful than the moon? Then why are you wasting time here watching the moon? Isn't it fun to watch me instead? In the bathtub filled with rose petals. Just you and me."     

"Stop!" said Shui Xian. "I'm sold! Let's go!"     

With that, he leaned down and picked her off the floor. Raelle instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck and looked at him.     

"I told you to stop teasing me. But you kept doing it all night. You really think I'm a monk and won't get back at you."     

Raelle looked very innocent as she said, "When did I say that? Am I not the one who really wants you to get back at me?"     

Shui Xian had nothing to say about that since that was true. She was more eager for him to get back at her than he was.         

He walked into the bathroom and made her sit on the chair inside while he went to open the tab to fill up the tub. He looked at the rose petals placed on the huge tray and raised his brow. It seemed Raelle wasn't just saying it, this bath was really gonna be filled with rose petals.     

He went back to Raelle's side and helped her take off the gown. He even slowly and patiently took off the jewelry that she wore.      

"I have to take off the makeup," reminded Raelle.     

"Yes, I know," he said and went to get the makeup remover wipes. Then came back to wipe her makeup carefully. He practically did it all himself. He didn't let her move. She just had to sit and he'd just serve her without a complaint. He was more than happy to serve his wife right now.     

He even helped her unbind her hair.     

"It's too complicated and time-consuming, isn't it?" she asked.     

Shui Xian leaned down and kissed her deeply. And when her hands were about to entangle him, he pulled away and smiled at her, "Be patient. Let me do it for you."     

"Be fast."     

"I thought my wife was the most patient person in the world."     

"Who told you to come into my life and take my patience away? I'm still very patient as long as it doesn't involve you."     

Shui Xian laughed at that and hugged her up as he took her to the bathtub. "Then you enjoy your rose petal bath."     

"Don't even dare to think about escaping," she said.     

"I'm still here," he said. "Let me take off my clothes, okay?"     

"Oh."
