A Good Teacher, Too

To be fair, Zhao Ye was definitely not a good teacher.

Realizing this, Teacher Zhao changed careers early on so she wouldn't keep leading her students astray.

Who could have guessed that years later, a celebrated young author of inspirational classics would suddenly come looking for her former teacher to thank her profusely, while also helping her escape her miserable life of having no job, no partner, and constantly wandering from place to place?

"I wouldn't be who I am today without your guidance back then..."

Zhao Ye looked at the puppy-eyed young man gazing at her with admiration and hesitated.

"If you don't know how to repay me, why not give yourself to me?"

Their relationship is purely that of teacher and student in the early school days

New novel: When This Tribulation Comes

Jian Wuke had been a wandering immortal for a thousand years or more, spending her days drinking monkey wine and teasing her pet snake. Life couldn't have been better. Then a bolt of heavenly lightning ruined her happy days, and she learned that it was time to repay the debt she'd incurred a thousand years ago.

"All right, what do you want? Fine clothes and good food, or wealth and status?" Great Immortal Jian asked her creditor with grave sincerity.

The creditor shook their head.

Jian Wuke couldn't help reaching out to tug at the creditor's red hair ribbon. "Then shall I find you a perfect husband?"

The creditor shook their head.

The pet snake beside them rolled its eyes. "What do you expect a kid of ten or so to ask for? Date candies?"

The little creditor's eyes lit up.

Jian Wuke: "..."

Later, Great Immortal Jian took her young creditor traveling through the martial world, defeating monsters and leveling up.

Watching as all the other flowers, plants, humans, and ghosts fell in love, the immortal turned to look at her grown-up creditor, her face full of grievance. "A Shi, I want kisses and cuddles and to be picked up too!"
