    Summary

    Xie Lian's life fell apart in a few simple steps. But when he gets a chance to turn it around as a marriage offer comes from Wuyong estate, despite his hidden disdain for the other, he accepts.

    Who would have known, it would have costed him everything and everyone he had left?

    His memories disjointed, stuck in a mansion in a life that feels too good to be true, perhaps Xie Lian can finally find home in the mysterious owner of the manor: Hua Cheng.

    Summary

    Xie Lian has been imprisoned in the coffin for who knows how long. When he finally gets out, he's met with a slew of problems- and an unexpected friend.

    ----------

    Xie Lian lay among a patch of brush for days or weeks, he couldn’t tell, letting his body knit itself together and grow accustomed to the brightness of the world. When he confirmed he was whole and unwounded, he snuck out to a river in the middle of the night to wash himself or drown himself, whichever came first. He didn’t look at his reflection– he didn’t want to know what a horrifying sight he must have been. He submerged himself completely, trying his hardest to clean the dirt and blood and who knows what else from his hair, his skin, and his robes. The water ran red and brown, and he didn’t leave the river until several hours later, when the stench of dried blood had lessened enough to be bearable. He thought maybe he’d drowned in the water. He crawled, dripping wet and shivering, to a meadow hidden in the woods, where he lay hoping that the sun would dry him off tomorrow.

    It was there, the next day, that the red fox found him.

    Summary

    For now, he gives in to the pressure, lets it pull him down until he’s nestled on the stone floor next to his God. Lets himself rest his head, his empty eye socket throbbing like his still heart once did, and remains there. The cool brush of stone arms around him are never enough, but he knows it’s more than he ever has deserved.

    ——

    A very self indulgent fic where Hua Cheng finds comfort in the strong arms of his husband.

    Summary

    “Rescue me?” Xie Lian arches an eyebrow at the man, mentally racking his brain to try and remember the scholar's name or anything else he can about him or his companions, but Xie Lian has spent far more time at Paradise Manor or in Puqi Shrine over the last few years than he has in the heavens and so these three young gods are barely known to him. “From what?”

    The healer god, Wa Ying, lets out an exasperated huff of breath. “From that monster of course.”

    Instantly Xie Lian stiffens, his back straightening and his tone cooling. “What monster?”

    Wong Tu lets out a mocking laugh. “The one you call your husband of course and I told you before,” this to his companions, “he's not a victim. He's a willing participant.”

    OR Post-Canon Xie Lian gets abducted by gods who don't like the influence Hua Cheng has over him...

    Summary

    Xie Lian hasn't heard from his ex in three years—not since Jun Wu dumped him and kicked him out of their home. Now, Xie Lian runs his own little flower shop and is engaged to his true love, Hua Cheng. Life is good. Happy.

    When Jun Wu suddenly makes an appearance, Xie Lian is surprised by the bad memories that rise to the surface. He can't sleep or eat, and Hua Cheng is in the capital preparing for an art show. Slowly, the grief consumes him.

    Or: Xie Lian doesn't take care of himself and gets really sick. Hua Cheng is there to take care of him.

    Summary

    Faced with such odd behaviour, Xie Lian couldn’t help but worry. As he took a deep breath to calm himself, a sweet scent suddenly assaulted his nose; an aroma that he was shamefully familiar with. It wasn’t long before he realized that it was coming directly from the man in front of him.

    All of him, really. His breath, his clothes, his hair—Hua Cheng reeked of it.

    “Oh, you’re…” Xie Lian said quietly. “You’re drunk, aren’t you?”

    In an over-the-top show of gratitude, Hua Cheng eagerly downs the whole jug of wine Xie Lian had thoughtfully given to him.

    Summary

    "I don't want your suggestions, I already have a beloved," Hua Cheng said, his tone sounding more annoyed, and Xie Lian too sighed heavily. This conversation again…

    "Ah, so it is true! I thought it was just rumors going around. But do we know her? How could we make sure you're not making this up to get off the hook?" The lady pushed, and Xie Lian couldn't let this keep going any longer. Just as he was about to say something, Hua Cheng spoke up.

    "My beloved is-" Hua Cheng cut himself off with a hand up to covering his mouth, holding onto it tightly.

    Before, when Hua Cheng had talked about his past and those few other comments he made, he looked surprised that he'd said them at all. Now, he looked terrified.

    "Something is definitely wrong" Xie Lian thought.

     

    Or: Hua Cheng accidentally drinks a truth serum and a lot of things he meant to keep hidden come to light.

    Summary

    Summary

    Divine dragon Xie Lian has lived centuries as a scavenger, scraping through life by wandering the realms searching for a thing he dare not hope for.

    Horrible luck haunts his steps, and heartache has long since faded into acceptance.

    And yet, when another near-fatal wound drags him close to death, has that luck turned around in the shape of a human named San Lang? Long buried instincts start to rise to the surface, but it doesn’t matter. San Lang is already in the service of another dragon: a mysterious, powerful being named Hua Cheng. At least, Xie Lian thinks so...

    Summary

    Acquaintances of various nature had come to know him as the God of Misfortune. The nickname took root and spread like plague as it often happened that, when he was spotted talking to someone, that person’s beloved partner could start expecting an unpleasant break-up in the next few hours.

    His appearance in one’s closeness was ominous and disaster itself was spurred by the tapping of his fingers on the greasy, cracked glass of a borrowed phone. A text from him was commonly received with curses and spurn: a god of goodwill made grim reaper against his desires. It was no good sign that he often walked around with a broom in his hands as if ready to beat the good luck out of anyone he encountered.

    or: Xie Lian becomes a ghost writer for his friends' break-up texts. Shi Qingxuan asks him to help a friend break up with his partner, Hua Cheng.

    Summary

    Hua Cheng is a successful idol, reaching his ten year anniversary. In an interview, the inevitable question of his partner's brought up, and while everyone expects him to repeat the usual script, this time he doesn't.

    “I’m married,” he says, a ripple of audible gasps from beyond the cameras. “There’s already someone at home.”

    “This–this…”

    “I owe everything to them. And so, I want to say it today. Crimson Rain is off the table everyone. It’s time I embrace my beloved back, with all the same love and gratitude.”

    Unfortunately, Hua Cheng forgets one detail: perhaps he should have told this to his beloved first.

    (Or: Hua Cheng confesses in the most roundabout way possible, Xie Lian's confused and jealous, and in between all of this is Yin Yu's braincell saving the day.)
