Summary
“I could tell you weren’t human from the moment I stepped through the door.” Xiao’s eyes were cold, studying Baizhu with apathy. “But I didn’t care to ask what you were. You’re not affected by my karmic debt, either. While neither of these bother me, there is one thing that still doesn’t sit right with me; how do you know my true name?”
Baizhu let out a musical little chuckle, a glimmer of mischief in his serpentine eyes. “My, my, we’re curious now, aren’t we, Alatus? I’m sure you’re /dying/ to know. Two divine beings masquerading as humans; no matter how hard we try to look like them, there are bound to be some things that give us away. You, for example, have a gorgeous set of fangs that betray your true nature. I plan to find out what, exactly, that nature is.”

Summary
Qiqi had been the pinnacle of his renewed lease on life, the turning point that had agitated the waters of stagnation within his psyche. It was serendipity that brought them together, two pieces in the tapestry of eternity that had been woven since the beginning of time.

From the instant he laid his eyes on the little jiangshi, holding onto her hat so as not to let her precious talismans blow away in the midsummer breeze, he had felt a strong connection to her.
