Song Yu was a koi fish, the big, plump, bright-red kind. Apart from being a little small, there wasn’t anything wrong with her.
But she was only two months old, so being small was normal. Song Yu had no idea how long she’d been growing before that.
After all, she’d only joined the journey halfway through. She hadn’t been reincarnated directly as a fish.
Though something had gone wrong with the reincarnation process, things weren’t so bad as they were now.
It was just that Wang Mengmeng should stop tossing coins at her and making wishes every day.
Even when she won, she never offered Song Yu any tasty food.
What a disrespectful human.
Wu Xie bought a red koi. The little fish was about the size of his palm and chubby from all the food it ate. Wang Meng especially loved making wishes at it, saying that koi brought good luck.
Wu Xie thought the whole thing was nonsense. If koi could bring good luck, why had he never won anything? At least Wang Meng had once scratched a prize off a lottery ticket while eating sunflower seeds.
Besides, the fish splashed water in his face every day.
He was her keeper, after all.
Zhang Qiling was quite interested in keeping fish. The chubby, bright-red little fish was so well-behaved and adorable, apart from its habit of floating belly-up and sinking to the bottom.
Black Glasses, meanwhile, was very interested in whether koi were edible and how they tasted. Surely a fish that had gained sentience would taste different from one that hadn’t.
Xie Yuchen was interested in whether koi could bring good luck and attract wealth. After all, he had a money-gobbling beast at home to support, and he needed to make money.
The Fatty would buy the family koi fish food in all sorts of flavors whenever he had time. The fish liked eating it, and it was adorable to watch it swim around.
Well, the thing about koi bringing good luck is that sometimes it really does depend on who you are.
