Summary
Amber and black eyes meet, one wary and tired, while the other is piercing and knowing. “Li Lun…” Zhu Yan whispers. Li Lun responds with a small smile on his face, which only unsettles Zhu Yan. A lifetime ago, he would never have described Li Lun’s smile like that. But after everything that has happened, from Li Lun’s schemes and overwhelming dark presence, Zhu Yan knows that there is trouble. With another breath, Zhu Yan speaks again, steadier this time than his previous whisper, “Why are you here?”

An alternate ending from Episode 17, what if instead of Zhuo Yichen, it was Li Lun who talked to Zhu Yan? This is purely a self-indulgent fic because I could not get this idea out of my mind. Not beta read!
