Synopsis

[Two heroines + supernatural mysteries + two strong, mature women + heartwarming + comedy + bickering couple + past lives and present]

The cool-headed, warm-hearted, strongest fighter Shen Siyu x the vindictive, theatrical, sharp-tongued Su Nianhuan

When Su Nianhuan was four, her parents died in a car accident, and she was taken in by her maternal uncle’s family. They only wanted the house her family had left behind. For fourteen years, she took care of the household and waited on them, until she could finally leave and live on her own in Haicheng.

On July 15, her birthday, Su Nianhuan is forgotten by everyone. Her uncle’s family makes trouble at her workplace and gets her fired. With her wages frozen, she can’t pay her mortgage. After receiving the final phone call ending her ties with her uncle’s family, she passes Dongjiang Bridge. Seeing a “child” by the railing, she rushes to save them without hesitation. Once everything is over, she slips and falls into the water, drowning.

Because Su Nianhuan has many unresolved karmic ties, she cannot be reincarnated. Several of those ties are merits she earned over the course of her previous lives.

When the Underworld learns of this, it promises Shen Siyu that Su Nianhuan can temporarily be given the status of a soul agent, allowing her to resolve the red threads binding her.

Shen Siyu gradually loosens the bonds around Su Nianhuan’s feet and resolves her different karmic ties. As the two spend time together, tender feelings begin to grow between them.

Each thread represents a story, and the two experience all kinds of danger and emotion in every one, giving rise to many heartbreaking tales.

At last, they unravel Su Nianhuan’s final red thread: the marriage fate they shared in a past life. Having repaid the debts of their previous lives, the two reincarnate together.

Any Highly Recommended Stories with Two Female Leads? I Want Something That Isn't Tragic

Something sweet, not angsty, and not too melodramatic. That's about it. This old soul can't handle angst. Sapphic novels from outside Tomato are fine too. This is the first time I've wanted to read a romance between two women, and I figured asking everyone would be more efficient than searching blindly on my own.
