Drama
The Second Senior Sister Lays Low
My Eldest Senior Sister was a brilliant talent, yet she died young, a victim of schemes and conspiracies.
My Little Junior Sister was charming and lovely, yet she died after being possessed by a Demon Creature and suffering endless torment.
Then there was me-the plain, unremarkable Second Senior Sister of the Sect. I never drew any attention, but I lived long enough.
Eventually, I became the Sect Ancestor, taking on countless disciples. I finally passed away peacefully of old age, surrounded by the weeping of my many students and their successors.
When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to my youth.
At that time, Eldest Senior Sister was already the Prodigy everyone looked up to, and Little Junior Sister had just joined the Sect.
The two of them hadn’t yet become bitter rivals over a man; they were still sisters who loved and cared for one another.
Looking at the two of them in their prime, I made a firm resolution:
I still need to keep my head down. As long as I lay low and survive long enough, the Magical Artifacts and immortal elixirs will all be mine eventually.
However, this time around, both Eldest Senior Sister and Little Junior Sister took a liking to visiting my place.
Eldest Senior Sister once asked me with a heavy heart,
“Second Junior Sister, he always says that Little Junior Sister is better than me. I know it’s not her fault, but I still feel a spark of jealousy. Am I truly that terrible?”
I replied, “Eldest Senior Sister, one thought leads to divinity, another to the demonic. Has he caused a heart demon to take root in you?”
Eldest Senior Sister’s expression turned solemn, and she cupped her hands toward me in respect.
“Thank you, Junior Sister. I have learned much from your words.”
She turned around and immediately broke off her engagement with her Fiancé.
Little Junior Sister also came to me to complain, looking lost.
“The Senior Brothers have all given me so many things. Sometimes I really can’t use them all, but I’m afraid of offending people, so I rotate through them every day. It’s much better here with you, Senior Sister; it’s always so peaceful. But don’t you find it a bit lonely?”
I hummed in agreement and gave a gentle answer.
“I don’t like letting too many people into my life. I think things are perfect just as they are.”
Little Junior Sister dithered for a moment, her eyes shimmering with envy.
Later on, she started becoming someone not to be trifled with, systematically removing a great many people from her life.
Ironically, those people were the ones who refused to let go.
The Secret of Five Letters
My husband jumped from a building and died in a pool of blood.
The police quickly cordoned off the scene.
A few days later, the autopsy report came back: the cause of death was a massive intracranial hemorrhage, and his body bore numerous signs of a struggle.
The police told me he had committed suicide and that there was no killer. I didn’t believe them.
The Sect Must Not Fall Today
The Sect Cannot Disband Today I was toiling away in the Accounts Office until the hour of the rat when a crisp notification suddenly rang out overhead.
“Ding! Detecting the imminent and simultaneous start of ‘The Stand-in Junior Sister’s Bitter Love,’ ‘The Yandere Junior Sister’s Imprisonment,’ ‘The Amnesiac Junior Sister’s Wife-Chasing Anguish Arc,’ and ‘The Salted Fish Junior Sister’s Flat Life.’
If no intervention occurs, the Guiyuan Sect will suffer a total collapse of its reputation due to a series of Love-Struck Mind incidents in three hundred days.
Its assets will be liquidated, and it will officially go bankrupt.” I looked down at the bright red debt of 1.03 million High-grade Spirit Stones recorded in the ledger.
Closing the book, I seriously wondered for the first time if the Heavenly Dao was specifically out to get me.
The Seven-Year Lie
On our seventh wedding anniversary, I found the plane tickets hidden in the drawer by Lin Yuezhou.
I thought he was planning a surprise for me, but when evening came, all I got was a sentence: he was going on a business trip.
Unable to sleep, I scrolled through social media and saw his first love’s post:
[Eighteen-year-old wish list-Go to Iceland with the one I love most to see the aurora. Today, it finally came true!]
The photo showed her kissing Lin Yuezhou under the northern lights.
I didn’t cry, nor did I message him to question anything.
After chasing after him for so many years, I’m truly exhausted.
The Shrine Finally Opens Today
On the very first day I hung up my sign offering a “Protection Charm for a Happy Marriage,” the handsome guy from next door came to make a wish: he wanted to be a normal person.
That night, he collapsed beneath the Torii of my home, drenched in blood that shimmered like liquid gold.
My small shrine, which hadn’t seen a single offering in three months, had suddenly picked up a deity on the verge of being reclaimed by the heavens.
The Silent Suspect
On the day my stepsister was murdered.
I told my dad and the police that I had gone to school to do homework, that I hadn’t been home, and that I really didn’t know what had happened.
But the truth was, I lied.
The Silk Tassel
I once saved a pregnant noblewoman. She smiled and told me that once the child was born, they would recognize me as their godmother.
But later, as I led my troops to station at the border, we gradually lost touch.
Until one day, eight years later, my subordinates reported that someone had come all the way from Jinling, specifically asking to see me by name.
“Who is it?” I asked as I walked toward the entrance.
There, I saw a young girl sitting atop a pony, threatening the group of soldiers surrounding her.
“Song Yunying is my mother! If you dare bully me, you’re all finished!”
I am Song Yunying.
The Snow Where I Left You
The West Coast-style video I filmed of my son has gone viral.
But I’m not the one who’s famous.
It’s my son.
Netizens recognized him at a glance as a mini version of Liang Jingnian.
That man is the head of Xiyue Group and the renowned Crown Prince of the Jing Circle.
The more the internet dug, the more they found.
They even unearthed a video of Liang Jingnian and me breaking up, leading everyone to conclude that I’m the ex-girlfriend who ran away with his child.
I sighed. They’ve got it all wrong.
Liang Jingnian and I weren’t just dating-we were actually married.
The Sorrow of the Moonlight
After getting married, I found out my husband had once loved an ex-girlfriend deeply.
On the eve of her wedding, that woman drove through the night and gave herself to him, just to say goodbye to her youth.
When I found out, my husband begged me not to expose it. “Otherwise, her whole life will be ruined.”
The Sprouting Chronicles
Zhao Qingzhu and I were betrothed through an exchange marriage.
The agreement was that his older sister would marry my older brother, and I would marry him.
He was a scholar, which meant his education was a money pit.
My family had to tighten our belts to provide for him, and the entire village laughed at us for being fools.
But five years later, he passed the imperial examinations with top honors and became the most sought-after bachelor around.
Suddenly, everyone was saying I was no longer worthy of him.
