"alright, come in!"
wei xin pulled suzanna into the house. qiao jiusheng hesitated outside for a moment before following her into the house.
seeing that the living room had been cleaned up by the dog girl, qiao jiusheng finally heaved a sigh of relief. su shanna went to make coffee and asked qiao jiusheng, " ah sheng, what kind of coffee do you want? "
"what's there?"
"there's no special-grade blue mountain. i haven't come back to stay for a long time, so i'm out of stock. oh, i only have mandheling coffee beans. what do you think?" there was a faint apologetic smile on susanna's fair face.
!!
qiao jiusheng rolled her eyes and said " i'm fine with anything ". then, she complained to wei xin, " you guys have time to roll around in the living room with susanna, but you don't have time to buy things. what are you guys doing? "
qiao jiusheng clicked her tongue twice, then said, " how licentious. "
wei xin couldn't be bothered with her.
"sit."
there were only two sofas in the living room. wei xin sat on one, leaving only the one opposite her. qiao jiusheng glanced at the empty chair, and hesitated for a moment before sitting down.
just now, wei xin and susanna were fighting on this sofa.
after sitting down, qiao jiusheng did not dare to touch anything, for fear that she would touch her underwear or rabbit tail.
seeing how qiao jiusheng was sitting upright, wei xin immediately saw through her thoughts. she snorted and said straightforwardly, " don't worry, there's nothing suspicious on the sofa you're sitting on. "
even qiao jiusheng, the experienced driver, blushed for once.
"you still have the face to say that." qiao jiusheng glanced at susanna, then asked wei xin, " where's your child? "
"he went to play basketball."
"oh."
the introverted child had gradually become more cheerful under the care of susanna and wei xin. it was said that he was even a football player in their school.

although qiao jiusheng was the same as usual, always laughing and joking, wei xin had been her old friend for many years, and whenever qiao jiusheng acted out of the ordinary, wei xin would always notice. seeing that the person was a little absent-minded, wei xin narrowed her eyes and asked qiao jiusheng, " what's wrong with you? is there something on your mind? "
qiao jiusheng's gaze turned deeper. " i can't hide anything from you. "
"that's true." wei xin thought of the past and sighed, " i could recognize you when you pretended to be qi yunsheng. i know you better than your boss." other than fang yusheng, the person who understood qiao jiusheng the most in this world was probably wei xin.
qiao jiusheng's mood brightened when she heard this, and her lips curved into a smile. " i heard that my sister has contracted cervical cancer today. boss applied for release for medical treatment and has already taken her to the hospital for treatment. "
qiao jiuyin is out? " wei xin was a little surprised. " cervical cancer ... this is really ... "
it had been so many years since that incident, and qiao jiuyin was also atoning for her crimes. when wei xin mentioned that woman again, her tone was no longer filled with hatred.
the more mature a person was, the less likely they were to get angry.
"i don't blame my brother, he's doing the right thing. i don't wish for my sister to die. in my heart, i even wish for her to be well. after all, she was my sister who had the same child as me. even if she's done all sorts of bad things, our blood can't be cut."
"i just thought of some things and my heart isn't very calm." qiao jiusheng faintly asked wei xin, " what can you do to relieve the depression in your heart? "
at this moment, susanna came in with a cup of coffee.
wei xin quickly stood up and took the plate from her. she even kissed su shanna in front of qiao jiusheng and said nauseating, " honey, it's been hard on you. "

qiao jiusheng's mouth twitched.
wei xin handed qiao jiusheng a cup of hot coffee, then pulled su shanna to sit beside her. qiao jiusheng tossed two pieces of sugar into her coffee. " we have macarons at home, do you want some? "
"alright."
susanna went to get two macarons.
wei xin had one, and qiao jiusheng had one.
the correct way to eat a macaron was to take small bites and slowly taste it. one would only eat one piece during afternoon tea. this was how qiao jiusheng ate, but wei xin was different. wei xin threw the entire piece into her mouth like she was eating a small biscuit, and she didn't seem to mind.
although qiao jiusheng was used to seeing her carefree attitude in private, she could not help but ask, " don't you feel sick of it? "
wei xin said, " that's more exciting. "
okay.
wei xin finished her macarons and took a sip of her coffee before saying to qiao jiusheng, " let's go, i'll take you out to have fun. it's been so many years since i've gone out with you. " before qiao jiusheng got married, wei xin would definitely invite qiao jiusheng to the high-end places in binjiang city as long as she was there.
those were all money-squandering places. one could spend hundreds of thousands of yuan in a single night.
ever since she married fang yusheng, qiao jiusheng, who had once led a carefree life, was now living a life of hard work and frugality. since qiao jiusheng had stopped bringing her out, wei xin felt that there was no fun in returning to binjiang city.
when qiao jiusheng heard this suggestion, she was also a little tempted.
"alright, let's go."
qiao jiusheng had to go to work today, so she was dressed formally. wei xin didn't like her clothes, so she found her a pair of tight low-waisted jeans and a white v-neck shirt.
qiao jiusheng saw that the clothes were not very revealing, so she gladly changed into them.
susanna didn't want to go at first, but she couldn't stand wei xin's clingy attitude, so she had to go with her. when they set off, it was dinner time.
the three of them went to have dinner and then entered a high-end club, which happened to have a chess room.
wei xin brought qiao jiusheng to gamble, and after a few rounds, qiao jiusheng's heart ached when she lost a few hundred thousand. seeing qiao jiusheng's heartache as she praised her, wei xin despised her for being useless.
wei xin laughed at her, " my good shengsheng, you want to leave just like that? " are you afraid that your yusheng will beat you up if he finds out?"
qiao jiusheng subconsciously replied, " he wouldn't dare! "
since fang yusheng was not here, qiao jiusheng could say whatever she wanted.
qiao jiusheng replied, " the financial power of our family is in my hands. " qiao jiusheng opened her card bag on the spot and took out fang yusheng's bank cards, which symbolized his extraordinary wealth and status.
staring at the cards, wei xin's eyes were a little surprised, and the other mahjong friends were also surprised. it was said that the head of the fang family doted on his wife a lot. it seemed to be true. such a valuable thing was all given to his wife.
qiao jiusheng kept the other cards, leaving a silver card on the table. she said, " this is fang yusheng's. there's more than six million yuan in it. even if i lose all the money, he won't do anything to me. "
"awesome!" wei xin purposely clapped her hands.
qiao jiusheng suddenly felt her face light up, and her spine straightened.
after a few more rounds, qiao jiusheng's luck was bad and she kept losing. when she lost another four hundred thousand yuan, qiao jiusheng's heart was already filled with bitterness. her yusheng couldn't even bear to buy a new car himself. she always felt guilty to fang yusheng for wasting money like this.

Player Killer
In the world of New Dawn, the citizens seem to be suffering a divine punishment of some sort. The monsters that plague them are worse then devils, demons, or depraved criminals. The devils have their own twisted morality, demons are not intrinsically bad—they're just above humans in the food chain—and depraved criminals can at least be killed. The undying, capricious monsters kill anything and everything, devouring all in their sights like a swarm of locusts. What's more, the lords and kings who should be protecting them seem to be working with these monsters. When all seems lost, it falls to a young boy to save his people from these monsters… from the players. … In the players' eyes, he is a hidden boss—possibly even the final boss! In the developers' eyes… what the heck is this bug?!

8 194Thorns of Jade [A Progression Fantasy LitRPG Adventure]
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Solo Leveling meets Chainsaw Man in this fun new LitRPG Series To become the king of Kissen, Noah Hearts trains to become the strongest swordsman in the world. The only problem — he can’t use Aura at all! Everything changes when he’s left for dead in a forest on the Kissen Fields… In a world where horrific creatures known as “demons” terrorize mankind, those who wield the mysterious force known as “aura” are the only ones who can fight them. These fighters call themselves the “Wolves of Haven”, and strive to create a world where demons no longer roam their lands! Though Noah Hearts is an exceptional swordfighter for a young man, his total inability to use aura means he could never hope to defeat the demons! Despite this major setback, he still hopes to become the king of Kissen and create a better world for those in his country! As he walks home from his daily training, his world is shifted upside down when he sees a few familiar faces in his home… This is the first draft of what I want to be a 9 volume series. I'll be editing, rewriting, and releasing the volumes on Amazon once they're finished. I'll admit, I'm finishing chapters in sprints because I want to participate in the writathon (Apr. 2022) so I apologize if there are some issues with the prose. Point them out to me and I'll fix them! Anyway, I have no backlog, but I plan on uploading chapters as I finish them. I don't want to spend weeks re-editing and never publishing like I used to, so I'm just gonna post when it's done. Like I said, this story is my take on a mix between solo leveling and chainsaw man. Specifically, the MC is the only one that can consciously level up (sort of), and the plot is fast paced and emotional just like chainsaw man. There are plenty of other inspirations, like HxH, Jojo, JJK, Cradle, and even FF6, but the first two are the biggest. Basically, if you don't like Shounen stuff, this probably isn't the story for you. Regardless, I hope you all like the story!
8 194Psyche Reflection
In the universe, Year 20XX, there exists people who are able to enter the cognitive realms of others and alter their perceptions and emotions, for better or worse. These people are known as "Divers" for their ability to dive into the psyche of others in a process called the "Psyche Dive". The cognitive realm is unique to each individual, hence it's also named the "Reflected World". There, one's innermost emotions and beliefs are materialised when the balance between the id (source of psychodynamic energy, represented by our desires and individuality.) and the superego (represented by our conscience and need to conform to society) is disrupted, with the id overpowering the superego more often than not.As a result, the excess psychodynamic energy on either side results in the formation of Spectres, ghost-like beings that haunt the ego (an individual's personality) and push a person to ruin by clouding his perceptions of reality, influencing his decision making in the process. If left unchecked, Spectres would continue to grow in number and power, eventually consuming the ego completely to form Demons within the person's psyche. At this point, it is extremely difficult to restore a person's id to its original state, as Demons are often extremely powerful and well-protected by their army of Spectres. People who are possessed by Demons are often twisted individuals who commit the most heinous of crimes, as they have lost all of their conscience and morals, fuelled only by their desires. The Divers are the last hope for humanity against the Spectres and Demons. Armed with the power to use their cognition to fashion into effective weapons against these abominations, the Divers seek to cleanse the minds of victims from such insidious influences. 21 year old Lee Jin Kai became a Diver abruptly on his first day as a University student, after a chance meeting with a beautiful foreign exchange student by the name of Aiko Verde. Despite having different motivations, the pair must now stick together, as they traverse the psyches of various people while gathering comrades, resolving real-world issues in the process... Inspired by Persona 5.
