    Summary

    A small lump rose up into his throat. Despite this, Xie Lian let out a chuckle.

    “It doesn't really matter what I want. Wherever I might I go, and whatever I might do, I’d be recognized eventually. My reputation is… a bit of a curse following me.”

    His fingers were digging absentmindedly into the backs of his arms. It hurt, but he didn’t let up. This always helped keep him focused and level whenever things were spiraling out of his control.

    Hua Cheng was thoughtful, his long fingers drumming idly on the plush armrest.

    “Gege… what if we could fix that?”

    Xie Lian blinked at him in confusion. “What do you mean?”

    Hua Cheng slowly sat forward, resting his elbows on his knees. He fixed Xie Lian with a surprisingly dastardly grin and Xie Lian’s stomach did an unexpected little flip.

    "We might have to break a few laws to do it, but what if we can prove you were telling the truth? What if we can clear your name?"

    --------

    TLDR: Hua Cheng helps Xie Lian bring down the man who ruined his life. This fic will be cute dates, trust issues, minor felonies, and probably the occasional mental breakdown.
