Summary
"You got scammed."
"He was a very convincing salesman!" Hu Tao's voice comes through the speaker sharp and a few touches too loud. Xiao holds his phone an inch further away from his head, hoping to salvage his eardrums.
"You said he told you it was a magic music box," Xiao says flatly. He lets every ounce of judgement seep into his words.
"Exactly! Very convincing, Xiao!"
In which Venti sells magical music boxes, Xiao is his unwitting customer, and there is absolutely, definitely nothing more to it at all.

Summary
The chatter in the room immediately quieted as Yae Miko stopped just inside of the doorway. The small smile against her features was relatively impassive, though there was a flash of mischief in her eyes that Venti did not miss as she eyed the gathered students.
“So, is this our turnout for this year? Not bad, but I’ve seen better.”
“Thank goodness I’ve already filled one position for a stagehand, otherwise who knows if enough people would volunteer?” She stepped away from the door and gestured with her hand for whoever was behind her to enter.
A moment later, a scruffy-looking boy followed her into the room, hands buried in his black zip-up hoodie and looking very much like he wished he was anywhere else, judging by his refusal to look at anything but the floor.
“Everybody, this is Xiao. He will be joining us to help for the entire process of bringing this play to life.”
Venti felt a little bolt of panic in his chest.
Because that was the same Xiao who had just recently been caught fighting another student. The same Xiao who had a reputation for not giving a single shit about anyone or anything in school.
What was Yae Miko thinking?- Language:

Summary
“Your assignment,” Ningguang said, “Is to assist the Ordo Favonius of Mondstadt in dismantling a newly-surfaced criminal organisation that goes by the name of the ‘Abyssi Familia’.”
Exactly one week into their new positions, the 115th generation of the Liyue Qixing’s secret elite forces are given their first assignment; to take down a major criminal syndicate that is surfacing in their neighbouring nation of Mondstadt.Consisting of 5 of the most dangerous personnel across databases continent-wide, their assignment will conclude when all five of their targets are arrested, subdued, or dead.
However, of the five is an enigmatic mercenary by the name of Arsenic - holding claim to the highest current kill count, and without a single failed hit. They are notorious for their weaponization of toxins, their mysterious escapes from assassinations, and for their distinguishing feature of not having a single shred of information or data regarding them.
Something which, the Ordo Favonius emphasises, is highly concerning.
With the arcane nature of Arsenic and the Abyssi Familia, one could say the Yakshas have quite the unpredictable mission ahead of them.

Summary

It would be easier if he wasn’t stared at by his clearly more successful childhood friend from every billboard and magazine.
It would be even easier if he had a magical teapot with a wish dragon…
Wish Dragon AU in which Xiao receives three wishes from an extremely tired dragon who just wants to retire already. Also, he is in love with his childhood best friend, because life just keeps getting more difficult for him.

Summary
“But I will grant him a boon,” Lord Barbatos says with a smile. “Anything in my power to give. How does that sound, little Xiao?”
Too good to be true, Xiao thinks. There had to be a catch, a trick. Nothing good ever falls into his hands like this, without years and years of patience and luck.
“Exceedingly generous, my lord,” he says, out loud. His voice quivers despite himself. “But I do not know what to ask for.”
Or, when Xiao falls in love at a young age, and Venti allows him a boon every time they meet.
