Big Sister Would Rather Bend Than Break

☆You're well over thirty and still haven't turned gay? That's because you haven't met me!

[CP] Quiet younger woman x alluring older woman, 12-year age gap

Lu Lu has two moms, one silver-tongued and the other quick-witted, yet somehow they gave birth to a little stutterer who can barely get a word out.

But when it's your own kid, you have to treasure her and raise her well, no matter what.

To make up for her shortcomings, Lu Lu took the cool, aloof route from childhood, saying as little as possible. As a result, even after graduating from college, she had barely any social experience.

Her two moms cried out in dismay and air-dropped her into the sales department, where eloquence was essential, to nurture this green little sapling.

When she met the department head, the beautiful Sha,

Lu Lu finally understood: so this is how you learn to talk a mile a minute!

In Lu Lu's eyes, Manager Sha was just like her surname: so beautiful she was downright lethal, making Lu Lu swallow hard. She seemed unstoppable in love, but who knew she was even more clueless about romance than Lu Lu?

In Lu Lu's eyes, Manager Sha was as straight as they came, her old bones creaking as she stubbornly refused to bend. But who knew it wasn't that she couldn't bend, but that she had misgivings and didn't want to? "Sometimes women are even less trustworthy than men."

In Lu Lu's eyes, whenever she got nervous her tongue tied itself in knots. But who knew that in front of Manager Sha she could chatter away without even stopping to breathe? "You're fine living on your own, and you'd be fine with a man too, but neither is even one ten-thousandth as good as being with me, because only when you and I are together are we truly happy!"

The beautiful Sha pinched little Lu's fleshy earlobe. "Sis never expected you to be fake-deep and genuinely flirtatious."

The pressure was just right. Lu Lu hummed with pleasure. "I never expected you to be fake-flirtatious and genuinely deep either, Sis..."

Coming soon: Little One, Who's Your Mom?

CP: A trust-fund kid who coasts through life x the mysterious mom of her child

Ouyang Yu had been living the carefree life of a rich second-generation kid for well over twenty years. She thought she could keep living like this until she died.

Until one day

A little tyke showed up looking for her family, threw herself into Ouyang Yu's arms, and cried, "Dried Bean Mom hits me! Potato Mom, you have to protect me!"

So the little tyke was being abused at home. Ouyang Yu's chivalrous streak kicked in, and she took the child in.

One more kid just means one more set of chopsticks, Ouyang Yu naively thought.

·

But once the little tyke had secured the right to live with her, her true nature gradually came out. She was even more nitpicky than Ouyang Yu, despite being the rich one.

Ouyang Yu grabbed a big shrimp and gobbled it down. It was pretty tasty as she chewed.

The little tyke struggled to peel the vein out with her tiny hands as she explained, "It contains undigested food scraps and metabolic waste."

The shrimp got stuck in Ouyang Yu's throat. "..."

·

The little tyke loved watching the news and documentaries. Ouyang Yu didn't care. She snatched the remote and put on her favorite stand-up comedy instead.

As soon as she finished laughing, the little tyke handed her a notebook and told her to copy down the best words and memorable lines from the comedy, saying, "Dried Bean Mom told me you should learn to be someone who always has a clever thing to say."

Ouyang Yu, who hadn't written anything by hand in years, stared back in confusion. "???"

·

Wait!!

She only knew one person in her entire life who was so stiff, awkward, fussy, and born a perfectionist. Wasn't "Dried Bean" just Dou Qian?!

Holy crap!!

The nightmare of being bossed around and controlled, which she thought was dead and buried, was coming back to haunt her!!

A note: This story is set in a world where same-sex couples can marry and have children. The protagonist's name is a little unusual. The "Qian" in Dou Qian is normally pronounced qian, but when she's being cute, it becomes "Dried Bean."

Theme: Love one another, walk hand in hand, and keep moving forward.
