    Summary

    The light still doesn't make sense against his eyes, but he thinks he remembers something like color. There is a lot of color around him, and he is able to discern white and black and a great deal of something else. It's a breathtaking splash of vivacity on a new canvas, where there had been no canvas at all for so many eternities. It is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.

    Red, Xie Lian finally names it.

    -

    In a disorienting turn of luck, Xie Lian is rescued from State Preceptor Fangxin's coffin. He recovers his other senses in good time, but his sight is taking longer to return—decades with no exposure to light have weakened his capacity for it.

    His benefactor and worshiper, a wealthy and eccentric ghost named Hua Cheng, hasn't left his side for months.

    Summary

    Laurent finds himself in the company of a talkative group of people. That all the men and women in that group have one very specific common denominator does not sit well with Damen.

    “What kind of stories were you subject to?” Damen asks, trying to parse out how exactly he should feel about this conversation. He cannot even begin to imagine the amount of detail and tall tales Laurent had extricated from the group, he had been talking to them for so long.

    “Informative ones,” Laurent says. “Colourful ones.”

    “Clear exaggerations.”

    “Bold ones about how you have a lot of prowess. And apparently quite the repository of bedroom talents.”

    “You’ve experienced it,” Damen points out gamely, and Laurent hums in a contemplation that bodes trouble.

    “I have learned that I have experienced a part of it,” Laurent says, his voice laced with mild distaste. “But not all. And that wounds me.”

    Summary

    Wen Kexing looked him over with his flat black eyes. Zhou Zishu watched him notice the flush in his cheeks and throat, the way he clutched the robe. Wen Kexing's attention felt like hot water seeping over and through him. He said, "I see."

    --

    Zhou Zishu embarrasses himself.
