My Young Lady Is a Sickly Cat

A writing exercise. Read at your own risk. Sickly cat-like young lady vs. loyal dog of a male servant, 1v1. Shen He, a famous consumptive invalid, a rootless crab with both parents dead, a fragile beauty like a paper lantern. When she is so sick she can barely hold on, her heartless aunt drives her out of the estate. The Shen family’s young lady is frail and sickly, harmless to people and animals alike, a helpless duckweed deserving the world’s pity. Crushing her should be easier than crushing an ant... right?
