The World of Single Dogs

At 30, a pure man becomes a wizard; at 30, Xiao Ke’ai discovers she can understand dog language.

On her 30th birthday, Xiao Ke’ai blew out the candles and wished to find love by the next year. Casting a glance at her dog, Papi, lying in the corner, she sighed:

“If only you could turn into a human, how great would that be.”

Papi, who had been lying quietly in the corner, suddenly stood up.

“You don’t have a partner, but I do!”

Warnings:

The story includes some pandemic-related content (portrayed positively).

Though it features a cute pet, the story leans heavily into realistic themes and discussions about the pressure to marry.
