At five o'clock in the afternoon,
Lin Yu stood in the lobby holding a DSLR camera, a tripod bag, and a folded reflector bag, waiting for the Chi sisters.
The three of them had just created a small WeChat group specifically for discussing their assignment.
The chosen shooting location was quite casual—simply random spots around the neighborhood.
After the rain, the outdoors offered many scenes with excellent artistic atmosphere.
While waiting, Lin Yu had already started planning the composition for the photo series.
After a while,
footsteps echoed from the hallway.
"Finally done changing, ladies?"
"I thought you were going to—"
Lin Yu rose from the couch, but his words trailed off as he froze in place.
The Chi sisters were wearing identical white chiffon dresses and matching white sneakers.
Even their hairstyles and makeup were exactly the same!
The only distinguishing features were their outerwear—one blue, one pink.
Lin Yu: "!!!"
He had been too naive!
Without relying on the system, there was absolutely no way to tell the twins apart by sight alone.
A few days ago,
he could still rely on their hair color for an easy distinction.
Chi Qingshui had black hair, while Chi Qingchi’s was chestnut brown.
But today at the comic convention, Lin Yu had noticed
that Qingchi had dyed her hair black as well.
He had casually asked why she’d changed it, since the previous color suited her.
Qingchi’s answer?
"Black is the ultimate vibe!"
Lin Yu had been speechless.
If black was the "ultimate vibe," why had she dyed it some random color before?
Now, as the twins approached with identical shoulder-length hair, it almost seemed like they were deliberately testing him.
Lin Yu rubbed his eyes but didn’t immediately pull up the system info panel.
Instead, he studied their expressions.
The one in blue had a slight upward quirk of her lips, while the one in pink wore a more neutral expression.
Blue radiated a clever energy, while Pink exuded an air of pride.
Ohhh…
So that’s how it was.
Most people, seeing blue and pink and knowing the sisters’ personalities,
would instinctively assume the calm blue was the older sister and the lively pink the younger.
So,
the twins had done the opposite—Qingshui wore pink, Qingchi wore blue—
hoping to trip Lin Yu up and laugh at his mistake.
When they reached him, both stood with their hands clasped behind their backs, watching him expectantly without saying a word.
Lin Yu grinned.
"Trying to make me guess who’s who?"
"You two are really—"
"!!!"
Mid-sentence,
his mind suddenly jolted.
No, something still wasn’t right…
The scent was off.
Lin Yu’s sense of smell wasn’t as absurdly sharp as Gou Ge’s,
but after enhancements, it was far keener than an average person’s.
Qingshui, with whom he’d been intimate, carried a faint jasmine-like fragrance—
or rather, the scent of ink? A scholarly aura?
This was a distinct trait Qingchi didn’t have.
Maybe Qingchi had her own unique scent when undressed,
but Lin Yu hadn’t experienced that yet.
And this particular "bookish" scent… came from the one in blue.
These twins… what a close call!
Their micro-expressions had been deliberately exaggerated to throw him off.
Not daring to take chances, Lin Yu immediately pulled up their system info panels to confirm his suspicions.

Lin Yu: "!!!"
Just as I thought.
I almost fell for the sisters’ coordinated act.
Luckily, I’m attuned enough to Big Chi’s scent to tell them apart.
Now that I’ve identified them, the sisters don’t seem so indistinguishable after all.
On Big Chi’s gauzy dress collar, isn’t there still a faint "mosquito bite" mark?
This oversight was downright careless!
If I’d failed to tell them apart,
Big Chi—already my body cultivation Dao companion—would’ve been heartbroken.
Lin Yu hefted his camera bag and stepped closer to Blue Chi, saying:
"You really think you can hide from me?"
"Did you actually believe I wouldn’t recognize you, Chi Qingshui…?"
"Later, you’ll test-shoot a few shots. This camera’s brand new—no portraits taken yet."
"Today, you and Little Chi will be the first and second leading ladies in my lens!"
[Ding!]
[Masterful Move! The Holy Son’s sharp eyes discern his Dao companion, filling the Head Librarian’s heart with sweetness!]
[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones]
[Ding!]
[Masterful Move! Seeing through the Joyous Sect Bell Envoy’s disguise with a single glance, earning her awestruck admiration!]
[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones]
Chi Qingshui: "!!!"
Chi Qingchi: "!!!"
Lin Yu’s confident unmasking left the sisters stunned.
Pink-clad Little Chi immediately broke character, pressing him:
"How’d you tell us apart? Lin Yu, don’t tell me you just guessed from the clothes?"
"I thought you’d pay closer attention. Guess I overestimated you~"
Anyone could’ve guessed—
this prank had Little Chi written all over it.
Big Chi probably went along just to see if Lin Yu could spot her at a glance.
Thankfully,
Lin Yu didn’t embarrass himself.
Hearing Little Chi’s pouty complaint, Lin Yu crossed his arms and smirked:
"Your micro-expressions gave you away. At first glance, they did throw me off."
"But once I got closer…"
"I would never mistake the two of you!"
With those words spoken,
even Chi Qingshui couldn't help but ask with curiosity and anticipation:
"Is there really any other difference between us?"
"Lin Yu... how exactly did you recognize us?"
...
(First chapter for today, with an extra update coming tonight!)
reezy rom-com) Good news: Jiang Liu is quite the ladies' man. Bad news: He’s lost his memory. Lying in a hospital bed, Jiang Liu listens to a parade of goddesses spouting "absurd claims," feeling like the world is one giant game of Werewolf. "Jiang Liu, I’m your first love." "Jiang Liu, you’re my boyfriend—she’s your ex." "Jiang Liu, we’re close friends who’ve shared a bed, remember?" "Jiang Liu, I want to have your baby." The now-lucid Jiang Liu is convinced this must be some elaborate scam... until someone drops the bombshell: "The day before you lost your memory, you confessed your feelings—and got into a relationship." Jiang Liu is utterly baffled. So... who the hell is his actual girlfriend?! ... Before recovering his memories, Jiang Liu must navigate this minefield of lies and sincerity, fighting to protect himself from these women’s schemes. But things spiral even further out of control as more people show up at his doorstep—each with increasingly unhinged antics. On the bright side, the memories he lost due to overwhelming trauma seem to be resurfacing. Great news, right? So why are they all panicking now?
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
