    Summary

    Chu Wanning knows his place. In the cultivation world, it’s a lofty one, his abilities putting him high above others. In the hearts of those around him, it’s inverse. He is too cold for anyone to look at him with warmth, much less touch him.

    That knowledge is tested when he's sent on an assignment with Mo Ran to exorcise a lust-fuelled ghost gone mad.

    “You’re fucking kidding me,” Mo Ran swears as his eyes sweep over the two long gashes along Chu Wanning’s side, his face complicated. “What, you were just going to rinse this off?”

    “I can take care of myself,” Chu Wanning tries, though he catches a glimpse of Mo Ran’s hands and finds himself craving their touch. As if reading his mind, Mo Ran reaches forward with his other hand, his fingertips brushing the skin right beside the claw marks.

    To his utter mortification, Chu Wanning lets out a small but audible whine. Mo Ran’s fingers pause and Chu Wanning hopes whatever poison must be seeping through his bloodstream, kills him.

    Summary

    “You know what?” Wei Ying said. “I think we should be friends.”

    “Vulcans do not have friends,” said Lan Zhan. He was staring very determinedly at the screen in front of him.

    Wei Ying frowned at him. “That can’t be right.”

    Summary

    “I’ve been thinking,” Wei Wuxian said casually, “of going to the next discussion conference.”

    “You mean the meat market?” said Jiang Cheng.

    Wei Wuxian frowned in confusion. “What? Isn’t the next one in Gusu?”

    “It is,” said Jiang Cheng. “And it’s going to be swarming with people trying to marry Hanguang-Jun.”

    Two years after the Sunshot Campaign, Jin Guangyao is dead and the cultivation world is at peace. Wei Wuxian is settling into his new life as a farmer, slowly ridding the Burial Mounds of resentful energy. But when an errand takes him back to Cloud Recesses, he finds Lan Wangji in a bizarre predicament.
