    Summary

    Chu Waning had his own work. And he had the great and dignified quiet of the Nanping mountain, which he had chosen precisely because it was great and dignified and quiet, and if that quietness had lately come to feel less like solitude and more like loneliness, that was simply the damp weather playing tricks with him again.
    No need to dwell on it.

    He maintained this position with perfect composure for the rest of the morning.

    It was somewhere around the wei hour that his position began, very slightly, to crack.

    By eventide, Chu Wanning had constructed a complete and adequate theory of the situation.

    The theory was this: Mo Ran was bored with him.
    - - - - - - -

    Or: The marital life is a bit of a struggle. Mo Ran, helping a distressed village down the river, ends up staying away longer than promised.
    Chu Wanning finds that he's not happy with this development. He decides to take matters - and his prodigal husband - into his own hands.
    He does not improve the situation.
    Someone needs to come and save Chu Wanning from himself.

    Or: Two days (and two nights) from ranwan 2.0 life, which took me nearly 30K words to write about.

    Summary

    On his 30th birthday, Lan Zhan gets struck by a mysterious curse: suddenly he's a mind reader!

    As much as he dislikes most people talking too much, hearing their unfiltered thoughts is even worse.

    To top it all off, he learns that his old friend Wei Ying might not be flirting with him just to be a nuisance. He might be flirting with Lan Zhan because he's actually really into him?

    Summary

    Какие плюсы Мо Жань видит в политическом браке? Ну, наверное, он скажет про расширение территории и красавца-супруга, который радует глаз. Какие видит минусы? Устраивайтесь поудобнее, Этот достопочтенный закончит рассказ, дай бог, к следующему утру. И начнет он, пожалуй, с хрустальных ваз, которые тот самый красавец-супруг в него швыряет.

    Summary

    There are moments of clarity.
    Moments where he feels like his body is his own, when he looks at his clenched fists and, for once, can feel his fingernails digging into his palms.
    It seems, in all those moments, he’s knelt at the altar in that newly erected temple that looks so much like home. Knelt there, kowtowing until his forehead feels bruised and raw, and the only words that make it out of his mouth are Yuheng, and help me, pay attention to me, and I’m tired. But no god steps out of the shadows and comes to his side. No god comes to hold an umbrella over his head to shelter him from this storm.
    He wants to say, “I’m cold, please hold me.” He’s really…so cold.

     


    ~~
    In the foothills of the mountains, there is a derelict temple of a long forgotten god. One cold winter, a boy is blown in with the wind. He calls himself A-Ran, and he is a mirror image of the past.
