Summary
“This San Lang is the prettiest ghost in any realm,” Xie Lian teases, resting his cheek on the crown of Hua Cheng’s head.
The noise that gets is utterly incomprehensible, and he laughs as Hua Cheng nuzzles closer against his chest.
“Gege is so cruel to this San Lang,” Hua Cheng whines.
“This gege is one hundred percent genuine,” Xie Lian answers. “Return if false.”
Hua Cheng’s hands tighten in the back of his sleeping robe, strong arms wrapped securely around Xie Lian.
“No,” he says stubbornly. “Never.”

Summary
Hua Cheng stiffens. For a brief moment, a shadow passes over his face.
Then Xie Lian blinks and it’s gone again, replied by the usual languid smile that adorns Hua Cheng’s face when he’s looking at Xie Lian.
“Why does gege want to hear about my childhood? San Lang’s childhood was boring, there’s nothing to see.”
When Xie Lian asks to see Hua Cheng's memories of his past and discovers exactly how much his husband has been through, he reminds Hua Cheng that what matters is him, not the state of him.

Summary
Hua Cheng isn't sick. He hasn't been sneezing, his throat doesn't hurt, and he hasn't been having headaches that pound his brain in painful throbs. He is perfectly fine, thank you very much!
He wouldn't have time to be anyway. He's got a surprise to prepare for his gege's birthday, and he intends to get it done, whether his body decides to betray him or not. Xie Lian's gone for a few days, so he has to make use of that short window of time if he doesn't want to be suspicious and be done in time.
He just... needs to be careful and not mess things up. Maybe ignore how dizzy he's getting too. Grin and bear it when Xie Lian and he video chats...
He can do this. He can totally do this...

Summary
Xie Lian can't stop thinking about how Hua Cheng's younger/past forms never got any closure or the thanks and praise they deserved from Dianxia, and it haunts Xie Lian.
Hua Cheng is a good husband and wants to help Xie Lian heal, and if that means allowing Xie Lian to see people from his past, then he would do it.
______________
In other words, Hua Cheng only wants to help Xie Lian, and Xia Lian loves his husband very much, no matter what form he is in.

Summary
“Okay, San Lang, let’s talk,” Xie Lian says, and is proud of how steady his voice stays. “Tell me about the cuts.”
“You talked to E-ming, didn’t you,” Hua Cheng says bleakly.
“It only confirmed what I already suspected.” Xie Lian closes his eyes. “Can you tell me that those injuries aren’t from who I think they are?”
“Dianxia is so clever.” Hua Cheng looks at him, and there is a sudden exhaustion written in the lines around his eye. “I could tell you they aren’t, but...this San Lang is tired of lying to his god.”
Despite his suspicions, to hear it admitted so plainly from Hua Cheng’s own mouth feels like a fist to his heart. Xie Lian takes a deep, deep, deep breath. Calmly. Calmly and clearly. He has already done his crying. He is not going to freak out right now. He is not going to yell. He is not going to yell. He is not—
“What were you thinking, Hua Cheng?!”
When E-ming is stolen and its curse activated by enemies, Xie Lian fully expects the chorus of pained howls he hears outside of Paradise Manor. What he does not expect is the multitude of raw, gaping wounds that split open along his husband’s skin.
