"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.

My World To Live
[Do Not Read this version, New FINAL version uploaded August 9th, 2021 as separate fiction, click to link here on RR. Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence. — Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction — The My World To Live (MWTL) series, the alternative short name is Canaan, is comprised of three books symbolically named My World, To Live, and My World To Live. Two years prior, the entire story had been planned and detailed out from start to finish before actual writing. Thus, the story will never be dropped. While the genre is largely Fantasy, the book is comprised of many other elements including a School Life (Magic Academy) story portion. MWTL has a lot of scattered symbolism and allusions, hence, the mystery aspect. The science fiction elements progressively become more pronounced, and the slow romance is a late bloomer. The female lead is strong and independent, and her backstory and identity unravel as drivers of the plot. Expect lots of action/fighting throughout and scattered philosophical and psychological themes arising. It's a human journey to find the essence of one's living and purpose. What kind of world do I wish to live for? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope to share the journey with you~! Canaan's Original and New Covers: If you're curious about my art and the various covers I made for this series and other authors, I have a RR thread that makes free covers and shows art processes. [October 1, 2020 Notice: Hello, I aplogize to all followers for suddenly taking an extended hiatus. Life threw a lot at my face and then the pandemic happened, so I hadn't been able to write until around the last month when I decided to challenge myself and finish the first book in this series. I am ok now, and thank you for your patience and understanding. No words can express how much every reader means to me. RR was the first writing platform that I ever felt accomplished to any small degree, so I am forever grateful to it. Multiples changes have been made since this final revision and writing of the ending, so please see the latest chapter detailing the update. This also includes my decision to submit this story to the 2020 Wattys contest (the deadline was Sept 30th). That means I will not be posting the updated version of this story on here until the contest is over (since I doubt I'll win anyway lol). And so, if you want to read the full, now completed (woohoo!) story, please go to my Wattpad. Thank you once again, and wishing you all the very best health and happiness! FINAL UPDATE, March 7, 2021: The complete story has been re-posted after the Wattys. This version that was on Wattys is the one being re-posted. However, the Final Version (which will be on a separate book from this to remain organized, and is technically the fifth version of the story xD) will be released May 2021. For more information, please read this update linked here. Thank you to all readers for taking this two year journey with me!

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.3
They say third times the charm. With every iteration we improve. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art.
