My Dad Really Is the Richest Man
To win Jiang Bai over, I, a spoiled little princess with a monthly allowance of hundreds of thousands, spent three whole years pretending to be dirt poor.
All just so I could mooch meals and drinks off him.
But now his “white moonlight” has suddenly returned, and she even had the nerve to mock me for being a broke loser.
Fine! Great! You want to see who’s richer?
I’m done pretending!
My Darling
During the year of our purest love, Chen Ming and I shared a kiss in front of everyone when we won the Zhengfa Cup debate competition.
But later, when our son was diagnosed with autism, we both came to regret it.
After ten years of love, the wear and tear of life had transformed us from a match made in heaven into a pair of bitter rivals.
Time skipped forward to our son’s fifth birthday.
Chen Ming and I were in the car, arguing once again over our child’s illness.
Right in front of our son, we cursed each other, screaming for the other to drop dead.
The next second, an out-of-control heavy truck barreled toward us.
Chen Ming went against his instincts and jerked the steering wheel to the right, but the violent impact swallowed all the shouting and cursing anyway.
When I woke up again, we were back on the day we won the Zhengfa Cup.
This time, facing a stadium full of cheering and jeering, we pretended we barely knew each other.
My Oblivious Boyfriend Is Green-Tea-Proof
My boyfriend’s manipulative junior had tried to steal him away from me one too many times. Finally, I reached my breaking point and gave him a piece of advice.
My boyfriend replied, “Got it.” The next day. The junior said, “Good morning, Senior! What a coincidence, seeing you here again.”
My boyfriend replied, “Good morning. I’m gay.” The junior: “?”
No Returns Accepted
My husband absolutely loathed his new graduate student.
He even went so far as to cause a scene in front of the Dean, demanding that she be transferred to another research group.
He claimed she was morally corrupt and a disgrace to academia.
That was, until the fire alarm went off. His custom-made suit was soaked through as he draped it over her head.
He pushed past me, carrying her in his arms like a princess as he rushed down the stairs.
Old Mountain Spring
My fiancé had been secretly sponsoring a young girl behind my back.
As my car passed by her school, I saw the girl clutching the faded sleeve of a teenage boy, timidly calling him Brother Xu.
The boy had delicate, handsome features and stood tall and elegant, like a white birch tree.
“Bring him over,” I said. “Miss?” I lifted my chin, my tone indifferent. “It’s nothing. I just want to do some sponsoring of my own.”
Premeditated
This was the seventeenth time I’d run into my roommate Cheng Yuming’s girlfriend on my way downstairs.
As was her habit, she pulled a plump orange from her bag and offered it to me, her eyes curving into a gentle, sweet smile.
I didn’t take it. I simply called her name. “Jiang Tingyu.”
“Yes?”
“Try a different fruit,” I said, my voice flat. “Oranges cause too much internal heat.”
Surrender
During the first week of the semester, I frequently dreamed of two men. Both of them claimed to be my boyfriend.
I woke up every morning with my entire body aching, so I went to see a psychiatrist.
“It’s just too much stress. Don’t be nervous.”
He gave me a mild smile and prescribed some medication. “Take these, and you’ll fall asleep much earlier.”
Later, I realized the dreams were only getting longer.
In the dream, the other man pinned my hands down and chuckled.
“I told you to keep the dosage small. If it lasts too long, she won’t be able to handle it.”
The Earth Master Girl and the Ghost Castle
[Does Chinese Taoist magic work on foreign ghosts?]
[I have no idea. I’m on my way to a cemetery castle right now. I’ll let you all know when I get back.]
My reply to the post was voted to the top of the comments.
Everyone said I was bragging, but what they didn’t know was that I am the sole Earth Master successor.
And the thing inside that British Castle is far more terrifying than any ghost.
The Earth Master Girl: Construction Site Strange Tales
A friend of mine was developing a residential complex for a real estate company in Xi’an when they discovered an ancient tomb. To avoid delaying construction, they chose to cover it up and report nothing. But none of them expected that someone would write a line on the wall of the work shed in red pen. Rules of the corpse-nurturing ground: 1. Do not feed the corpses raw meat. 2. If you see a child under the age of ten, close your eyes immediately. 3. Eat the rats.
The Earth Master Girl: Poyang Lake Water Monkey
I had a dream while boating on the lake with my friends.
In the dream, a man told me he had taken a liking to me and demanded that I marry him.
I refused.
The next day, a female classmate on the boat vanished without a trace.
When I dreamt again that night, I agreed.
He laughed with joy, but unfortunately for him, he had no idea that I am the sole Earth Master successor.
