t/n: salty pig hand means pervert (esp. one who gropes women in public)

Ling Xiao gave a low chuckle, “My dear wife, you cannot stop your husband from exercising his right as a husband.”

You XiaoMo’s mouth twitched, what kind of right was this? “You have your rights. I also have my human rights. Now, I am protesting.”

Ling Xiao lightly laughed, “Protest overturned.”

You XiaoMo was dissatisfied, “On what basis?”

Ling Xiao said, “If you marry into a chicken’s family follow the chicken, if you marry into a dog’s family follow the dog.”

t/n: if you marry a chicken follow the chicken, if you marry a dog follow the dog means a woman follows her husband no matter what his lot is.

You XiaoMo blushed and refuted, “Who married into your family?” He was clearly a man, how could ‘marry into’ be used to describe him?

t/n: There’s jia and qu (嫁 and 娶) in Chinese, both mean marry, but jia (嫁) is to marry off a daughter or wife marrying into the husband’s family while qu (娶) is to take a wife. Since You XiaoMo is a man, he should be the one taking a wife instead of being married off.

Ling Xiao earnestly replied immediately, “Dear wife, my body and heart, and all my firsts have completely been given to you. You have to take responsibility for me till the end.”

You XiaoMo gnashed his teeth and glared at him, “Whose first time was it too? So many of my firsts have also been given to you, why don’t I see you taking responsibility for me till the end?”

When he finished speaking, You XiaoMo wanted to bite his own tongue off.

Ling Xiao’s eyes were filled with laughter and he had an expression of having gotten exactly what he wanted, “Since the wife has said as such, then I will definitely take responsibility for you till the end. Please rest assured my darling wife.”

Thus, the salty pig hand once again touched his waist and even wanted to move downwards this time.

You XiaoMo was alarmed and grabbed his hand, “Stop messing around, there’s so many people watching.” He would not need to be so anxious if the box was not transparent.

“Relax, they’re all watching the auction and won’t notice.” Ling Xiao whispered in his ear as his right hand started headed between his legs.

You XiaoMo immediately clamped his legs shut, “That’s not okay.”

There were so many experts here, which one would not be aware of everything in all directions? Maybe there may even be one who wasn’t too interested in the auction and was instead watching the people all around. Though those who came to participate in the auction would normally be very interested in it, there was no lack of people who are not interested in the beginning, as he was also one of them.

“Okay, I get it.”

Ling Xiao and You XiaoMo confronted each other for a few seconds before the former gave up.

You XiaoMo was finally relieved.

At the time of their dispute, the auction below was already underway in full swing. The atmosphere of the venue was extremely intense and many were competing with each other. The price of every item in the auction steadily rose and the highest hammer price was forty four thousand spirit gems. However, the auction was only two thirds of the way in. Thus one could imagine how the prices of the next items would climb once again.

The items sold in the Cang Alliance’s auction were all good quality so the price would remain high every time. Some small groups who did not have enough spirit gems could only watch the proceedings while green with envy.
