    Summary

    In the aftermath of the novel, the Lan elders cite an old Confucian rule in refusing to acknowledge the unwitnessed marriage between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji: it is inappropriate, they say, for a younger brother to marry before the elder.

    In the face of mounting attempts to drive Wei Wuxian from the Cloud Recesses, and rampant infighting for the position of Jin sect leadership, Jiang Cheng proposes marriage to Lan Xichen. The marriage, he says, will cement their allyship and bring stability to the crumbling coalition of the Great Sects.

    Unfortunately, the new couple just do not get along.

    Xicheng enter a marriage of convenience. After much strife, they agree to try anew. Eight years pass in peaceful co-existence, but they eventually capitulate to requests from elders to annul the marriage and beget heirs. However, they soon realize that it's not so easy to put eight years of marriage behind them. Falling repeatedly into bed together, they begin to navigate a shameful, secret relationship.

    Summary

    “Why are you crying, gē?” A child’s hand reached up to brush away the wetness. “Does it hurt?” Jin Ling grabbed desperately at the wrist of the small hand. “Gē?”

    “...Jiùjiu…?” Jin Ling finally cleared enough of his vision to meet large grey eyes. He laughed a little breathlessly, wiping more of his tears away in disbelief. “Jiùjiu!”

    “Did you lose your Jiùjiu?” the child asked. “I’ll help you find him, gē! My name’s Jiang Cheng.”

    or: Two years after the events of the Guānyīn temple, a monumental error on a night hunt renders Jiang Cheng back to being a 8 year old child, which has more consequences than anyone could have expected.

    Summary

    The cashier, barista, shopkeeper, all in one, all-rounder Jiang Cheng sighs and resists the urge to slam his head on the counter. He really thinks it's a sick fucking joke.

    "What do you want to order?" He needs to ask for a raise for his impressive patience. He deserves it.

    The man speaks after his golden eyes scanned him up and down, "Jiang Wanyin..?"

    "Last time I checked I'm not on the fucking menu," he deadpans.

    Lan Xichen sputters.

    Jiang Cheng adds before the man can open his mouth to speak, "Hurry up and place your order. You're holding up the line."

     

    Or; Jiang Cheng ran away from home at 17, found a job at a coffeshop, and met someone from his past. Oh, and it's coffeshop au all over again.

    Summary

    After an awkward interview with Key admitting he’s seen fanfiction about the two of them, Key and Minho discover that maybe the fanfiction writers weren’t too wrong about them after all.
    “You’ve read fanfiction about us?” Minho near shouted. His eyes nearly bulged out of his head, mouth open staring at Key.
    “Hahaha, Minho is just surprised there’s any such thing.” Key laughed at the interviewer. Quickly turning back to Minho he bit out “Get with the times honey, everyone who’s famous has had fanfiction written about them” Key smiled back at the interviewer who looked at them both slightly confused “How about we speak more about the concert, I designed some of the costumes you know.”
