    Summary

    Xie Lian had grown accustomed to the mundane, repeating the same routine day after day; however, a pleasant change has gradually woven itself into his usual rhythm.

    His hands rested loosely on the steering wheel as he approached the familiar intersection, his eyes flicking toward the empty lane beside him. He slowed his car, anticipation fluttering nervously in his stomach.

    As his gaze lingered, he couldn’t help but think about how it hadn’t always been like this.

    OR: Xie Lian keeps meeting the same biker at the intersection every morning before work. Though he's never seen the man's face beneath his helmet, their brief encounters slowly become the highlight of his day. When the biker doesn't show up at their familiar intersection one morning, Xie Lian is left unexpectedly disappointed. To his surprise and delight, the biker finds another way to make it up to him.

    Summary

    ”Uncle has become more...” Lan Xichen said, ”concerned for us, lately.”

    Lan Wangji nodded. He was standing by the window, looking to the courtyard where Wei Wuxian was talking to an alpha servant he had not seen before. They were standing close, and while it was Wei Wuxian who was leaning in and laughing, there was a shy smile on the face of the clearly more timid alpha.

    Behind him, sitting by his desk, Lan Xichen continued, “He seems to be of the mindset that our lineage is in danger, should we not get married soon.”

     

    or, lwj is a noble alpha who needs to get married

    Summary

    Five years of war leave the land drowned in blood. The Sheng dynasty has fallen, a new emperor sits on the throne, and the broken remnants of Xianle await their fate.

    Among them is the former Crown Prince, Xie Lian—once beloved, now a prisoner awaiting judgment.

    When rewards are offered for his role in ending the war, General Hua Cheng asks for only one thing: to marry the fallen prince.

    The court believes it must be cruelty, humiliation, or some elaborate punishment. No one understands why he would want a disgraced prince with nothing left to give.

    Least of all Xie Lian himself.

    Summary

    Hua Cheng crouches down in front of the jam selection and is lost in thought, until a soft touch against his thigh startles him. There’s a small, pudgy hand clutching at his pants.

    “Hello?” Hua Cheng looks at the small, curly child and can’t suppress a smile.

    “Noods.” The kid says, voice quiet but sure.

    “Okay.” Hua Cheng lets out a laugh.

    Or,

    Xie Lian has three kids, two jobs and not a minute to spare.

    Hua Cheng has no kids, lots of time and a crush.
