Summary
Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made.
Faith.
His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs.
"I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him.
I remember you.
I remember you.
I will always, for as long as I live, remember you.
(A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.)

Summary
“Nobody’s heard from you in a while,” he says, irritated. “We wanted to check you weren’t dead or something.”
Xie Lian laughs. “Don’t be silly! I can’t die while—” and then he pauses mid-sentence, brows furrowing together, fingers ghosting over the unmarred skin of his neck. “Oh, of course. No, no, I’m not dead. I’m fine. Why don’t you both stay for tea?”
He doesn’t think they’ll accept, really—and Xie Lian isn’t actually sure he has any tea, but he’s once again surprised when they both reply in unison with a decisive, “Yes.”
“Oh!” and his smile feels less brittle this time, chest a little warmer as he claps his hands together. “Come inside, then!”
OR Xie Lian struggles to live in silence while waiting for his beloved to return. Mu Qing and Feng Xin keep him company - and some long, almost forgotten half-secrets fall out of place.

Summary
“Hua Cheng really will have our heads for this.” Feng Xin sighs again, pulling Mu Qing out of his reverie.
“His highness will speak on our behalf.” He moves behind Xie Lian to fix his hair.
“You make it sound so simple,” Feng Xin says.
“Isn’t it? What are friends for?”
Apart from the serene smile on Mu Qing’s face, his words stun Feng Xin to silence. It’s strange seeing him so calm and content while doing Xie Lian’s hair. Then, Feng Xin looks at Xie Lian, while the other man combs his tresses before twisting them into a half-bun. All the while, Xie Lian plays with the tassels of his belt like a child. He looks just like he did when he was a spoiled young prince once in his life.
OR
Xie Lian, Feng Xin, and Mu Qing spend a day out and rekindle their friendship.
