    Summary

    Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji were once considered a doubles pair to watch as they rose through the ranks of tennis players in China. Though they were each skilled individually, together they were practically unstoppable. But things ended poorly between them, and they haven't seen each other once since the downfall of their partnership.

    But when they meet again, two years later, their connection is still stronger than the distance that has grown between them, and they seize their second chance at standing together with everything they have.

    Summary

    In 2008, Wuxian discovered the secret to enjoying all the fun parts of college life without the pesky classes. He dropped out to bartend full-time. Auntie Yu cut contact with him, which was a plus in Wuxian’s book. Being a flirtatious chatterbox paid off—in tips, and lots of phone numbers scribbled on the back of receipts.

    After nearly 5 years, he’s starting to question his choices. He'll be 25 on his next birthday, and the age gap between him and the undergraduate student body is starting to make him feel deeply uncool. Unfortunately, all the students his age are like his roommate Huaisang—neurotic PhD candidates constantly teetering on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

    Wuxian’s starting to consider moving back home when he sees Him. An exemplar of male beauty, practicing tai chi at dawn as Wuxian staggers home after a late night partying with co-workers. According to Huaisang, the hottie with a body is a tenured professor in his forties. All of the faculty and students think Professor Lan is like a mountain—beautiful and serene, utterly centered and unmovable. Wuxian is convinced the man is actually a dormant volcano. He’s determined to do whatever it takes to make him lose control.

    No, this is not the broken, fucked-out mess of a sex slave the Jin usually bring him in the hope that Lan Wangji will fashion them into a tool for entertainment. Something stirs in his core. Something dormant and long forgotten.
     
    or;

    Wei Wuxian, former war weapon of the Qishan Wen, now a Jin war prize, is brought to Jinlintai to serve as a courtesan. His tutor? The Second Jade of Lan. It goes about as well as can be expected.
