    Summary

    Young Master Shen is one of those types of nobles. Sheltered, weak, ignorant, and a pain in the neck. Running away just before his wedding and then refusing to kill the monsters attacking him only makes Liu Qingge’s already unfavorable impression of him drop even further.

    Liu Qingge attacks the oversized birds attempting to kill them both, and ignores Young Master Shen’s affronted cries to spare them. At least he’s getting paid well to bring this spoiled young master back, Liu Qingge thinks sourly.

    Summary

    On a warm night in Lotus Pier, with his husband pressed against his side and water on their feet, Shen Qingqiu has a talk with Liu Qingge about their long-time friend and fellow cultivator Jiang Wanyin.

    “Shen Qingqiu, I like him too.” Liu Qingge turns to him, eyes blazing. He emphasizes the word like as he responds, as if he’s trying to get at something more. “And you’re fine with that?”

    “Of course I am,” Shen Qingqiu responds, bewildered. Jiang Wanyin is their friend. He can’t imagine why he wouldn’t be fine with his husband liking their friend. “We both like him, don’t we? What’s the problem with that…?”

    (On a bright summer morning, Liu Qingge addresses Jiang Wanyin with Shen Qingqiu’s hand clasped in his:

    “We wish to court you. The both of us.”)

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu tries his best to be a good teacher. Nurturing young talents is a pleasure, and guiding them into finding their passions and honing their craft is just as fulfilling.

    Of course, when he walks into the library and finds Ning Yingying and Liu Mingyan hunched over and planning a story, he must approve. Of course he would do everything he can to support these promising young disciples!

    Shen Qingqiu only approves more when they decide to base their project on his experiences and adventures with Liu Qingge, naturally.

    Summary

    Liu Qingge wakes in a bright white room, everything hurts, and there’s a constant beeping noise that won’t stop. He swats at it— his damn alarm clock, probably— but he’s stopped by something.

    He opens his eyes and shoots his nastiest glare to… to…

    He gawks, mouth wide open.

    There, sitting by his bed, is the most beautiful stranger in the world.

    Summary

    Liu Qingge tries to calm his anger. It’s unfortunate that he’s already reached his limit on how many people he can throw off his peak for this month— Shen Qingqiu’s rule, naturally.

    “A demonstration of the Four Arts will show which of us is the most qualified to be Peak Lord Shen’s lover.”

    Liu Qingge snorts. How foolish is this talentless poet, to think that the Young Master of the famed Liu family would be so uneducated so as to not know the basics?

    Summary

    Liu Qingge presses a devoted kiss to the hand of the plum blossom fairy that he's always loved. Fairy Shen stammers and turns red, but doesn't pull away.

    Liu Qingge kneels first, cradling Fairy Shen's hand carefully and speaks: "Fairy Shen, I have become the strongest cultivator of the jianghu, become peak lord, and have been upright and righteous my whole life. Now that I am your ideal lover, won't you finally accept my courtship?"

     

    (Liu Minghui is six when he meets the plum blossom spirit, and his heart is forever shaken. Liu Minghui is six, and he knows that this must be love.)

    Summary

    "Ah, isn't my shidi so peerless? Not only is he brave and strong, but he is also kind." Shen Qingqiu chuckles, the sound ringing hollow. Shen Qingqiu offers him a carefully practiced smile. The curve of his lips is slight, and a less experienced person would even call it charming. But the incongruence between that curve and the dim glaze of his eyes is too obvious to Liu Qingge, and he has to hold back his worried thoughts. "Holding an umbrella for this old man, how noble."

    Liu Qingge can't help but think that for Shen Qingqiu, holding an umbrella is the very least that he would do for Shen Qingqiu.

    (Shen Qingqiu, lost in grief, wanders Qing Jing in the rain. Liu Qingge shields him, and reflects.)

    Summary

    After a secret peak lord meeting, it is decided that Liu Qingge must accompany Shen Qingqiu to a temple. His tendency to get attacked, poisoned, plotted against, or all three of those at the same time is getting to a point where they have reached out to a temple to see if they can lessen his terrible luck. With Liu Qingge escorting him, they reasoned, Shen Qingqiu should be safe.

    Liu Qingge should have known that with Shen Qingqiu’s luck, it couldn’t have been that easy.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu had never thought about it before. He had been so caught up in his own feelings, simply following his heart when it came to Liu Qingge. He had sworn his love to his husband, made his bows without a second thought. It was simple to live in that ignorant bliss. But the more he thinks about it, the more it rings true. It is devastatingly and insultingly simple, clear even to a blind man.

    Shen Qingqiu has never deserved this love, this adoration from Liu Qingge. The love that is given to him should have never been his in the first place. His heart protests heavily, painful in his chest, but Shen Qingqiu ignores it.

    When he thinks of what Liu Qingge could have, what Liu Qingge deserves to have, it is clear what Shen Qingqiu must do.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu blinks. Once, then twice. And just to be sure, he rubs his eyes and blinks rapidly to clear his vision. It's still there, just sitting on his bed. He's never seen it before, and there's no way that anyone could have left it for him, so he calls on the one thing that could have possibly done this.

    “System?” Shen Qingqiu calls mentally. “What is this?”

    [Congratulations!! Congratulations!! Congratulations!! Good things must be said three times!! o(*≧▽≦)ツ Host has been given a reward (°ロ°) ! Reward: Xiao Liu obtained!!]

    Summary

    Liu Qingge takes the tanghulu sticks out of his pouch and sets them on the platter. The tanghulu peeks out of the waxed paper wrapping, bright and enticing against the simple and elegant platter.

    "If Liu-shidi is offering, then this shixiong will gladly oblige." Shen Qingqiu gingerly takes a stick of ruby red cherry tanghulu, and lifts it to his mouth.

    (The Tanghulu Incident will never leave Liu Qingge.)

    Summary

    It was Liu Qingge’s duty to protect Shen Qingqiu, to ensure that he would be healthy and safe, that he would always come back home. It was his duty as a shidi, as a friend, and as someone with the potential to be more. It was reasonable to assume that the mission to Jinlan City would be no different.

    Shen Qingqiu does not return from Jinlan City.

    There are no words to describe the grief that Shen Qingqiu has unknowingly left in his absence.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu, his lovely cheeks stained red, carefully takes the mysterious flower from his hands. His eyes sparkle, and Liu Qingge’s breath is punched out of him. Liu Qingge doesn’t know what’s so special about it, but if flowers get that kind of reaction from him, then he would gladly uproot a whole meadow just to see that smile again.

    “I accept.”

    It’s a flower, and nothing more. But Shen Qingqiu looks at him like he’s brought the greatest gift of all.

    Summary

    Just the thought of Liu Qingge makes Shen Qingqiu feel fluffy, flushes his system with warmth. His heart flutters when Liu Qingge brings him gifts, when he visits Qing Jing with that small, but no less charming, smile on his face. There’s no doubt in his mind that Liu Qingge is his most favorite shidi– no, his most favorite person.

    Of course he is– he’s Shen Qingqiu’s best friend.

    It can’t be possible, it can’t be true. And yet, it is. It feels like he’s trapped in a nightmare, but he won’t ever wake from it.

     

    Liu Qingge grits his teeth, because it is the An Ding Peak Lord, Shang Qinghua, who has won the hand of Shen Qingqiu.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu flicks his fan open and runs his finger down the length of the fan. Liu Qingge chokes on his tea.

     

    I always long to be near you.

     

    Surely, Shen Qingqiu is joking, because he cannot seriously be suggesting that to Liu Qingge, the brutish and bloodthirsty Bai Zhan War God?
