Summary
Cheng Xiaoshi spends the next several minutes just staring at the photograph, his finger running gently down the curve of Lu Guang's sunlit features. His mother's voice sounds from the back of his head.
The photograph is a window into the photographer's soul. Look, baobei, what does this photo tell you about the person who took it? What emotions do they feel?
Attraction. Longing. Desire. It might as well be written in Sharpie over Lu Guang's face, big bold characters in Cheng Xiaoshi's handwriting.
Fuck. He really has been blind.
Over the course of a year, Cheng Xiaoshi learns to see what's been right in front of him this entire time. (Or, familiarity as a love language.)

Summary
As a mandatory part of your post-grad program, you're required to log 200 hours as a teaching aide—which would’ve been fine, if you had any say in who you were working with.
Instead, you're assigned under Professor Jing Yuan: esteemed war historian, charming bane of the faculty lounge, and the one man who makes grading ancient battle essays feel like a tactical skirmish of your own.

Summary
In a certain office building, there's a single worker whose presence sticks in neither memory nor recording. Of course, this is intended by design — it's to ensure that his mundanity stays undisturbed, and that nobody asks too many questions about him.
This all changes one day when the new hire displays an uncanny ability to ignore the strangeness entirely, and becomes determined to prove that 'X' is more than meets the eye.
Of course, X knows that they know; but unfortunately for them, he finds their noble attempts more endearing than troublesome.
