Work Text:
When the buzzing activities of the Sect becomes truly irksome to her ears, Jiang Yanli wisely decides that the best course is to retreat and find a quieter location to relax within; the kitchen would likely be busy as well and while it was one of her favorite places to be, she didn’t want to be in there right now.
So, instead she makes her way to one of the farther away pavilions. She is unsurprised to find a-Xian meditating there, his red aura flaring gently outward as their instructors had taught them to do when pressing for progress within their cultivation growth of the Golden Cores. With a soft smile, she reaches down and gently brushes aside a wayward strand of hair before kneeling beside him and carefully resting her head against his shoulder.
He sighs, acknowledging her as his eyes remain gently closed. “Shijie.”
She enjoys the little moments like this one, no matter how hard to come by they are in their day to day life.
