She Visits My Dreams Every Night

A new neighbor moved in next door.

Su Huaiwang saw her through the fence. The girl was slender and soft, her skin exposed to the summer sun so translucent and white, yet carrying the cool sheen of jade. When their eyes met, the delicate face beneath the wide-brimmed hat broke into a friendly, gentle smile. Su Huaiwang smiled back, then lowered her head and went on tending her vegetable garden.

She never expected to see her new neighbor again that evening.

In her dream, the girl fulfilled every one of her fantasies. When Su Huaiwang woke, the sun was already high in the sky. She glanced at the little toy beside her, the one she had used last night and had not yet put away, and felt flustered.

So the wildest erotic dream she had had in years was about trying every single thing from last night's side dish with a new neighbor she had met only once?!

Su Huaiwang covered her face in anguish, wondering whether something was wrong with her.

The doorbell suddenly rang. She hurriedly pulled on some clothes and went to answer it.

Standing outside was the very girl who had been entwined with her in her dream the night before.

The girl greeted her and chatted with her as if they were old friends. The hand she held out was cold in the summer heat, as if it had just been dipped in a stream. Immersed in guilt, Su Huaiwang paid no attention to these details.

Like her pretty face, the girl was warm and gentle, brimming with a vitality unique to the young. She made Su Huaiwang's heart, long dormant, start beating again.

Su Huaiwang had thought the dream was just a coincidence. But from then on, the girl appeared in her dreams every night. Wearing the sweet, obedient smile she showed when they talked during the day, she used the games Su Huaiwang had chosen before bed to keep her under her thumb, again and again.

Su Huaiwang had once been missing for a month.

During that month, no one could find her, not even herself.

She had lost her memory, and forgotten every last thing about that month.

When she awoke in a hospital bed, many people were gathered around her, looking at her with complicated expressions.

Confused, she asked what had happened, but the answers were unsatisfying:

"She was just missing." "It was just an accident."

With no answers forthcoming, Su Huaiwang quickly put the matter out of her mind.

It was not until a year later, while passionately entwined with the girl in a dream, that she vaguely remembered the meaningful remark the girl had made when they talked about her disappearance.

"...Because you're so good, those filthy things grew covetous of you."

The new neighbor's delicate features seemed impossibly beautiful in the sunlight, yet in dreams she was like a block of ice, entirely at Su Huaiwang's beck and call.

Panting, Su Huaiwang lowered her head and looked at the girl, who kept her eyes demurely lowered, though a flash of obsession crossed her face as she moved.

So, who were the filthy things coveting her?

Coming next: A Guide to Escaping the Chasing-Your-Wife Crematorium

Xu Yanxi had been unlucky for the first half of her life. She could choke on a drink of water, fall from the top bunk while sleeping in her dorm, and get slapped over and over by women she dated. Fortunately, her optimistic outlook helped her make it this far.

Who could have imagined that one day her luck would turn around? Not only did a gentle, beautiful senior help her at work and in life, but her romantic prospects suddenly exploded. One by one, the women who had dumped her came back around, impossible to keep away.

The girl next door who had once hurled insults at her moved into the apartment above hers, clinging to her and acting coquettish as she desperately declared her love.

The aloof beauty who had once torn up her love letter became her client, clumsily creating chances to spend time with her. In private, she was like a pitiful little puppy.

The good friend who had once gone their separate ways met her again, her tender gaze full of affection.

As Xu Yanxi watched a whole chasing-your-wife-into-the-crematorium drama unfold, she was at a loss.

Even novels wouldn't dare write this! Is the Matchmaker trying to hit her quota?

As a carefree, independent woman, Xu Yanxi thought all these chasing-your-wife-to-the-crematorium plots were completely unnecessary. They only gave her a headache.

Fortunately, she still had her ever-kind senior. Not only did the senior help her find a place to live and get hired, and bail her out of trouble, she was even willing to make a sacrifice and pretend to be Xu Yanxi's girlfriend to help her ward off all these romantic entanglements.

Xu Yanxi was so moved she could hardly bear it. With a senior like this, what more could she ask for?

She had planned to treat her senior to dinner and thank her properly. Who could have guessed that she would enjoy the drinks a little too much, black out briefly, and wake to find her senior's bewitching face flushed with a shade of red she had never seen before. The woman was leaning over her, panting as she kissed her.

Xu Yanxi: Can someone tell me if this is an erotic dream or a nightmare?

Strictly speaking, Sheng Qi had only met Xu Yanxi once during their entire time at university.

When Xu Yanxi was a freshman, Sheng Qi was a senior, busy with an off-campus internship. She had only exchanged a few messages online with the new junior.

The one time they met was at a department team-building event. The young woman was lovely and full of life, her eyes crinkling as she sweetly called Sheng Qi "Senior."

That day, Sheng Qi had rushed back to the capital from Guangxia, travel-worn and exhausted. But for some reason, after seeing Xu Yanxi, she felt the trip had been worth it.

Sheng Qi thought it came from recognizing and feeling pleased with a junior. Her first impression of Xu Yanxi was a good one.

That was, until Xu Yanxi came to Guangxia and Sheng Qi arranged for her to live next door.

She was just as cute as before, but her private life seemed a little chaotic.

When Sheng Qi came home from working late, she might see the girl in the hallway, clutching her sleeve and sobbing uncontrollably. During a break at work, she might see a colleague from the company they were working with repeatedly slap herself in front of Xu Yanxi. Even at the cat cafe she occasionally visited on weekends, the owner might be tightly holding Xu Yanxi's hand, eyes red-rimmed.

At first, Sheng Qi thought the discomfort in her heart came from being unable to stand by and watch a junior with such a bright future fall into ruin. But it was only when she kissed Xu Yanxi that she realized...

She had just been jealous.
