Wei Ying's pov

It's been about three years since Shufu found me in Yilling, and it's been a lot of experiances. I thought that aunt Yu would be mean to me since she glared at me a little in the beginning, but then an incident happened when i had been there for about a year, and now she's super overprotective of me. She is like that to the Jiang siblings aswell (since they're her real kids), but maybe a little more over me. I don't really know about that.

Anyways, tomorrow is A-Cheng's awakening, meaning that we'll celebrate both his and my (early) birhtday today. Everyone in the sect house has been fussing around all day long, and me and A-Cheng are not allowed to be inside where all the preparations are being made. We are to either stay in our rooms or be outside in town, and even in town, everyones fussing over it.

But, I guess it's better than sitting in my room without having anything to do. Don't get me wrong, I'm eternally gratefull for the Jiang family for letting me stay. And I'm usually a very calm person, but sometimes my persona can affect how I usually am, like now. So right now, me, A-Cheng and A-Li are in town finding something to do before some disciples come to get us. I must admit, it is quite fun teasing A-Cheng, even though it's only my persona while in public. Everytime somebody important or we're in public, we put up this kind of persona in order to keep  everything as people think it is and keep us safe. When that incident I talked about happened, Shufu Jiang and Āyí Yu said that it would be best if we made personas so that it wouldn't happen again. Only our closest friends and house keepers know how we really act.

"A-Xian? Are you listening to me?" A-Li asked me sweetly. Her persona is being that sweet older sister that calms everyone down, but in reality, she can be quite scary when angry. Not saying she's not nice normally, but her temper can softly go from Shufu Jiang to Āyí Yu's. For an example; if mine and/or A-Cheng's persona would have done something bad and/or mean to the other person, or someone just in general, she would, when we're alone of course, get mad and scold the one that made the bad/mean act very badly.

"No, sorry Shijie, I spaced out a little"  I answered her truthfully. Sometimes, I space out thinking of what has happened during the years that have passed, like now. It has trully been much. I went from being what other people would call a "street rat" to being head disciple of the Junmeng Jiang clan. It might seem like a fancy title, but for me it's just that; a title. I don't necessarily need a title, I would just be happy to be able to live here in Yunmeng, but Shufu said that I would be living with him.

"Oh, well if somethings wrong, you can tell me" she said, but there was a little glimt in her eyes. I sweet dropped a little. That was a cue to her scolding you or making a long talk about how I can tell her anything and that I shouldn't keep everything to myself. Like for myself, her persona can sometimes affect here when she's not acting.

"Of course shijie" was my only response. She could be quite scary, but only our family, close friends and house keepers know about this, as said.

Just then, I saw a stand that was selling different toys. I ran over and looked at the different toys and saw the one I was looking for. A rattle drum, not much for the world, but it was my favourite toy. A year or two before Shufu found me, a boy walked past me and gave me his rattle drum. I don't remember his face, but he had white robes. He was rather sweat, and he didn't hit me. In all cases, after that, rattle drums have always had a way of making me softer than I already am.

My persona is a thick headed guy who flirts with every woman I see. I am also a guy who has a glimt in the eye and is a complete rule breaker. And I hate it. Just as I hate my status... Okay... I don't necessarily hate it, but I don't need it... But I do hate my persona. It's just not like how I am normally. Jiang Chengs persona is the counterpart of mine. His persona is to be the one that keeps me in check. But truly, he is the one that runs away from A-Li everytime she's about to scold him. The worst way she scolds you is taking her shoe of to spank you. It's quite embarrassing. That's why I don't take my personas pranks to far, I don't want to be spanked because of it. Anyways.

I paid for the rattle drum and went back to A-Cheng and A-Li. Soon we went to buy some food and some drinks. It was quite fun, it being just us three. But soon, the disciples came and told us to come back to the sect house. The fun in town was over, but it was fine. Now it was time for the banquet. Atleast for the one for the public. There will be two different banquets. The first one is for the public, where I'll, of course have to act like a complete flirt and jokester. Yay... did you note the sarcasm?

'sigh'

Anyway, we're at the sect house now.
