A Sweet Little Bedtime Collection

(A brainless, sugary little treat, seriously brainless)

Story One: The Magic Town (POV: Bottom lead, complete)

Lan Yi was tired of city life. People who relied on magic were always so arrogant. There were far too many people he disliked.

He arrived in a remote little town, where mountains rose beyond mountains. The delicate city folk could get hurt from the slightest bump. He found someone very obedient, someone who even carried his footbath for him.

But then a second mage came to town. His obedient companion seemed to be growing disobedient.

Story Two: Beauty Beneath the Moon (POV: Bottom lead, complete)

Sheng Ziyue had known about the moonlit beauty flower since childhood. It was gorgeous, and incredibly difficult to pick.

Yet wave after wave of people arrived with all sorts of bizarre tools to try to gather it. He would come out and move around only after the Bamboo Lady had eaten them.

But this time, he seemed to have fallen for someone. Should he give up a little of his own nourishment to pick a flower for him?

Story Three: True or False (POV: Bottom lead. This story is the core inspiration for the premise. Complete)

Yu Nan was the youngest son of the Yu family. He had been pampered since childhood and was engaged to his childhood friend, Shen You.

Naturally frail, Yu Nan was watched over by Shen You everywhere, whether going to school or out to have fun. Shen You never let him suffer even the slightest bit of bullying.

That was until Shen You, the student council president at an elite academy, met a poor student. Yu Nan felt that Shen You seemed to have changed.

As the saying goes, you can forgive someone once or twice, but not a third time. He would put up with Shen You three times, and then he would no longer need him.

Oh, and by the way, if that poor student comes flaunting himself in front of Yu Nan, he shouldn't blame Yu Nan for showing no mercy.

Story Four: The Bell Rings at Midnight (POV: Bottom lead, complete)

Le Yinyan has two secrets. Whenever a bell rings at midnight, he always hugs his quilt and pretends to be asleep, because if he opens his eyes, he will see something terrifying.

His second secret is that he was betrothed as a child. Every day, he carries a wooden tablet around with him. Once a month, he stains it with his scent using his first blood.

After transferring to a different university, Le Yinyan seems to have become able to see the figure he once embraced after breaking down in tears.

Story Five: The Demon King's Flower of Love (POV: Bottom lead, complete)

Chu Qingyi learned from childhood to read people and adjust accordingly. A timid soul with not a penny to his name, he yearned for money, but longed even more for someone to love him.

He joined a variety show, thinking he might find someone who would love him.

But Guest One liked watching him eat, Guest Two liked making soup with all sorts of strange things, and Guest Three liked dressing up as a ghost to scare him... He had to soothe one and then another, dashing around to indulge their little amusements.

All the new guests knew he was the special one, but why?

Why hadn't any of the guests bloomed?

Premise: You can't deny other people's excellence just because you are ordinary
