Romance of the DW Pairings
Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao
The Chang Jiang is still strong months after the Battle of Chi Bi. He is still watching the great river flowing. People say the victory at Chi Bi is impossible, but he defies all impossibilities with the help of all those he trusts.
"Everyone is talking about you for your heroic deed at Chi Bi," Xiao Qiao said.
"It wasn't me, Xiao. But, the work of all the people in Wu, even Sun Ce's spirit empowered me to achieve success," Zhou Yu turns to his wife smiling.
"Of course, everyone is with you to the end, even me," Xiao Qiao giggled.
"You did a good job out there, but Xiao, promise me…" Zhou Yu mood changed to worrisome. The last thing he wanted to see is the scoundrel's appearance next to his Xiao.
"Promise me not to show yourself in front of Cao Cao? Trust me, you don't want that guy get ahead of me by this competency," Zhou Yu begged.
"Why? Do you think I'm afraid of that pervy? He's not my type, but no way I'll turn myself in for the safety of the people in Wu. I've made my decision final. The next thing he tries touch me is the sharp tip of my fans," Xiao Qiao boldly answered.
"You can't be serious. There's a lot about this guy that is bothering me a lot. I may admit I'm lucky, but there are more tricks up his sleeves to try to steal you from me," Zhou Yu squeezes his fist hard. It hurts me a lot to fight with everything he got to defeat Cao Cao at Chi Bi.
"Yes, like Cao Coa is a womanizer. That charm of his and his poetry won't work on me," Xiao Qiao said.
"He..he got all this stuff that I don't even have the qualities to get," Zhou Yu whimpered.
"So, he's rich, but my father taught him best," Xiao Qiao countered.
"He defeated Yuan Shao with the same kind of results we had at Chi Bi," Zhou Yu added.
"Battle of Guan Du bores me, I like Chi Bi better," Xiao Qiao said.
"Because Chi Bi is all water battle and sadly imbalance? I admit it was," Zhou Yu admitted.
"Oh come on, why are you giving such a man that much credit? He was a great man, but I don't like his attitude and I don't like him. I like you a lot as my husband," Xiao Qiao said.
"But, Xiao.." Zhou Yu tried his best to get even with his wife.
"What's next, his son Cao Pi isn't it?" Xiao Qiao asked.
"Ugh, I'm beat…" Zhou Yu grunted.
"Come on, there's a whole world of ambitious guys out there trying to rival you on your cool," Xiao Qiao said.
"Ahem, Zhuge Liang?" Zhou Yu guessed.
"I'm starting to think he's sort of weird," Xiao Qiao said.
"Hahahahah" Zhou Yu then went close to her engaging a hug.
"To me, you're my favorite tactician and I love you," Xiao Qiao told.
"One more thing, Dong Zhuo?" Zhou Yu thinks a lot.
Xiao hit him hard on commenting her to pairing with Dong Zhuo of all guys and the worst.
"Ok ok, I am joking about Dong Zhuo.," Zhou Yu gave up.
"It's not funny," Xiao turned away from her hero.
"Forgive me," Zhou Yu begged.
"Hmph," Xiao crosses her arms pissed.
'Xiao, it's time I go see Sun Quan at the council," Zhou Yu let go of her and turns to prepare for work.
"Sure thing, all work, no play. That's my Zhou Yu," Xiao Qiao taunted.
"There will be lots of time we can play, my lady," Zhou Yu promised.
"I'm curious to when," Xiao Qiao said.
Before he gets on his horse, he kissed her in the forehead like she's just a child, then spoke, "In time you see," Zhou Yu gets on his horse and head to work.
The Pride and the beauty of Chang Jiang continue their relationship flowing like water.
