    Summary

    A flicker of something wounded crossed Hua Cheng’s face. He hadn’t expected this to be so difficult, to feel so thoroughly stripped of the easy charm and confidence that so often left his husband flustered. Now, standing before this earlier version of him, he felt strangely outmatched.

    He exhaled quietly, setting the matter aside. Taking his place at the altar, Hua Cheng picked up a brush, posture straightening as he prepared himself. He tilted his head slightly, aware of Fangxin stepping closer, hovering just behind his shoulder.

    For a fleeting moment, a thought crossed his mind. He had assumed this request would give him the upper hand, a rare opportunity to play with a more abrasive version of Xie Lian, but perhaps he had miscalculated. Perhaps his husband had known exactly how this would unfold, leaving him here instead, about to be drilled in calligraphy until his fingers bled.

    OR: Hua Cheng buys a spiritual device that allows Xie Lian to revert to Fangxin under the guise of improving his calligraphy. He's absolutely elated to find out that this version of his husband keeps having intrusive thoughts every time they touch.
