Summary
Before he notices, Jing Yuan is holding out a skewer with that same fried sweetbread Stelle had tricked March into eating pierced on its end.
“You looked like you really wanted to try it.”
“Oh.” Had he been that obvious? Flustered, Dan Heng looks down at the containers in his arms, calculating how best to rearrange things in order to free up a hand. “Give me a moment.”
“No need.”
Then, casual as anything, Jing Yuan brings the skewer up to his lips. Dan Heng freezes.
They’re in public, is his first thought. Not in the busier main street, thankfully, but even so. He could practically see the headlines now. Luofu’s general spotted with mystery lover!!
They weren’t even dating.

Story 1: Reverse Scale
Dan Heng lifted his head, the beginnings of an apology on his lips, only to be interrupted by a loud gasp.
“Jing Yuan-daren, you should have told me that your husband was traveling with you!” Qingyin exclaimed, an expression of startled delight on his face.
Dan Heng froze. His what.
“My what?" Jing Yuan said, inadvertently echoing his thoughts.
Qingyin faltered, beginning to look flustered. “Ah, wife? Bondmate? I mean no offense. If anything, I’m glad to see that scale bonding ceremonies are still being practiced on the other ships. It's one of our oldest ones, and I feared the worst for our traditions after—well, just look at what’s been happening with the Yaoqing lately. It hardly looks like a proper Xianzhou ship anymore with all that IPC influence!”
Dan Heng could barely hear him, mind whirling in shock.
He couldn’t mean—
But what else could it possibly be?
