    Summary

    Along with the cold realization of how much they touch is the discovery of how much Luo Binghe thinks about him. Which is a lot. Shen Yuan could count on one hand the number of times he’d glimpsed into Luo Binghe’s thoughts and found his friend not thinking about him. And it’s not just the existence of the thoughts themselves, but also the contents of said thoughts, which range from rather sweet sentiments about taking care of Shen Yuan in some way, to— Well.

    And look, Shen Yuan isn’t the thought police. It’s not like he’s going to hold it against Luo Binghe for having certain thoughts within (what should be) the privacy of his own mind. But does he have to have so many? Doesn’t he ever get tired of thinking about Shen Yuan and all the, ahem, things he’d like to do to him?

    After making it past his thirtieth birthday without losing his virginity, Shen Yuan gains ‘cherry magic’ wherein he can read the thoughts of anyone he touches. In doing so, he discovers that his good friend Luo Binghe has been in love with him for ages. Too bad Shen Yuan is straight and doesn’t have a chance of returning his feelings.

    …Right?

    Summary

    Qiu Haitang goes to the Imperial City, not the cultivation sects, for help in pursuing the man who killed her brother. A decade of work, one political marriage, and a shockingly short coup later, and she receives two gifts: the throne and a message with Shen Jiu's whereabouts.

    One drawn-out set of negotiations later, and Shen Jiu—Shen Qingqiu, now—arrives at the imperial palace.

    Qiu Haitang has wanted answers for a lifetime. Equally, subconsciously, she has wanted her fiancé back. Now that she has him, there's no way she'll let him go.

    Summary

    As Yue Qingyuan turned towards him and approached, Shen Qingqiu was forced to witness the bare front of his torso as well—just as thick as the back, with a ridiculous amount of padding over the muscles of his pectorals. There was a generous dusting of dark hair across his chest as well which also trailed southwards, down his stomach that showed he was clearly eating well enough, and dipping under the waistband of his—

    Shen Qingqiu lifted his gaze to find Yue Qingyuan staring down at him with pink cheeks. It seemed not even the esteemed Xuan Su Sword was immune to the effects of exertion.

    A chance encounter has Shen Qingqiu seeing more of Yue Qingyuan than he anticipated. He feels very normal about it and reacts in a completely sane way.

    Summary

    Shang Qinghua laughed it off and said that Shen Yuan’s hypothesis was probably right—it was likely just that she hadn’t had many female friends before now. Lots of women were touchy-feely like this with their friends, Shang Qinghua had said. It was normal.

    Well, alright then.

    Shen Yuan hasn’t had many friends that were women before. Shang Qinghua has had some...interesting friends in the past. This leads to quite a few misunderstandings.

    Summary

    “Ahh,” Shen Qingqiu breathes, a sigh of understanding. It freezes Yue Qingyuan in place, and she stalks forward like a predator. “Has someone made an attempt on your dearly protected virtue, Shijie?”

    She says virtue like it’s a much filthier word instead. A stand in for something crasser. Yue Qingyuan swallows, and her mouth is so terribly dry.

    “Nothing has been done,” she says, trying to keep her tone steady and even.

    “Oh, good,” Shen Qingqiu says. She is very close now. Has backed Yue Qingyuan up against the door. “It would be terrible if our respectable Zhangmen-shijie were to be groped and fondled like some common whore. No, that would not do. You aren’t--”

    The words groped and fondled stick in her mind like sticky honey, bringing with them images of Shen Qingqiu’s long, elegant fingers digging harshly into soft flesh. She whimpers.

    --

    Yue Qingyuan has a problem, and Shen Qingqiu graciously helps her shijie out.
