I Want to Be My Senior Sister's Dao Companion

[A story about reuniting with an old friend, moving house, and making peace]

Rao Yao was a little fish who took human form in a pond on Little Spirit Mountain.

The mountain was home to a group of fluffy senior disciples and a cool, aloof crane senior sister. Rao Yao wanted the senior sister to become her cultivation partner, but the senior sister was unmoved by affection and firmly rejected her.

Everyone said, "The head senior sister can hear the malice in our hearts. It's so awkward. Stay away from her."

Yet for some reason, Rao Yao liked her. Every night, she would secretly leave her body and accompany the senior sister on her night patrols.

Gradually, she discovered that the senior sister liked preening her feathers and sleeping up high. She would smile when she heard mortals scolding children, and she could also cook dishes that were practically poison.

Much later, when the senior sister cradled her face in her hands, Rao Yao finally remembered how, amid the ruins of her homeland, the senior sister had scooped her out of a pond that was about to dry up with a lotus leaf.

Oh, so they were old friends.

Falling in Love with Dr. Liang

The day after receiving a breakup text, Nan Zhi drove to her girlfriend's hometown and pounded on her door like a madwoman.

A cool, aloof woman with snow-white skin and her long hair tied up peered out from next door. In a soft voice, she said, "Stop banging. No one's home. Find someone else to date."

It wasn't until the next day that Nan Zhi learned this was her girlfriend's older sister, Liang Yingxue.

Nan Zhi waited for three months. Not only did she fail to find out where her girlfriend was, she also ended up on the operating table, where Liang Yingxue removed her appendix.

As the anesthetic wore off, Nan Zhi's eyes watered from the glare of the lights. Then she heard Liang Yingxue, dressed in a white coat, say:

"Still thinking about her? Maybe she'll come back if you find a new girlfriend. Want me to play along?"

Nan Zhi gritted her teeth. "Fine!"

Nan Zhi's ex-girlfriend thought Nan Zhi was wonderful in every way, except that she was too possessive. She wanted to get away from Nan Zhi for a while and clear her head.

She stayed away for months. Then she suddenly heard that Nan Zhi had gotten together with someone else. She didn't believe it, thinking Nan Zhi must have found someone just to make her jealous.

Just as she was missing Nan Zhi, her older sister called her home for a family dinner.

That night, fireworks were going off outside. Shivering all over, she saw Nan Zhi and her sister embracing and kissing on the balcony.

"Are you really together?"

"Yes. I don't regret it."
