    Summary

    Hua Cheng is smitten with Xie Lian from almost the first moment she sees her, when the woman turns up at her flower shop and asks for help in picking out a plant for her apartment.

    But then Xie Lian keeps returning, seemingly cursed with the inability to keep any plant alive for longer than two weeks.

    Hua Cheng doesn't mind though, not if it means she gets to spend time with her jiejie.

    - - - - -

    “Jiejie,” she breathes, disbelieving, “what did you do to it?”

    Hua Cheng doesn’t want to sound incredulous, she truly doesn’t, but she’s never seen anyone manage to kill an aloe plant before.

    This one is rotten.

    Summary

    Exiled for her beauty, Xie Lian is condemned to climb Mount Tonglu and ordered to marry the first beast she meets at the summit of the mountain.

    The beautiful woman she finds at the altar, however, is not at all what she'd expected.

    A Hualian AU of the Eros and Psyche myth.

    - - - - -

    In the light of the candle, there’s something to her wife that she has never seen before, something far deeper than a simple change in her form. San Niang may be hiding her true face, but there’s a power thrumming beneath her skin that Xie Lian has never noticed in the light of day.

    It’s clear that her spouse is no simple nymph child of a minor god, but a goddess, and a powerful one at that.

    “San Niang,” she whispers, reaching out to touch, “who are you, really?”

    Summary

    “I’ll catch a ride with someone, actually.” Xie Lian finally answered. She realized she hadn’t asked ahead of time. She just assumed, and she was about to retract her brazen statement when Hua Cheng’s smile widened and she nodded approvingly.

    Xie Lian swallowed.

    “What??” Feng Xin sounded alarmed. “What do you mean with someone?? Who??”

    “A friend, Feng Xin. I’ll be fine, I promise.”

    “What? Wait, Xie Lian what do you-“

    Xie Lian hung up.

    “Jiejie, I’ll give you a ride home,” Hua Cheng leaned closer.

    After finally making her music comeback, singer Xie Lian's life is further changed when she meets her favorite actress, Hua Cheng, at a dinner party.
