    Summary

    Xie Lian was what people would call weird for paying for innocuous services at a brothel rather than an inn, because if he could afford tea and a table, shouldn’t he prefer a place without any sexual proclivities? But the best part about visiting brothels was that no one would ever recognize him if they were looking! Xie Lian would never be caught dead in one of those establishments, right? And when he was injured, as he often was, waiting to feel better was easier when he could listen to gentle music in a warmly atmosphere!

    Yes, the atmosphere was designed to lure men into beds! No, Xie Lian didn’t want a bed or anything like that! He wanted tea, a small table in the corner of whatever room the singers were performing in, and something to lean on as his vision spun from the aftermath of falling off a cliff! Funnily enough, while no one had ever sought him out before—nor did he drink in these places—there was a first time for everything!

    Why was there a youth at his table looking at him like that?

    (or: xie lian frequents brothels, which would definitely be a shock to anyone who once knew him. similarly, he’s frequently injured. these things occur simultaneously more often than not!)

    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

    Shen Qingqiu steals Yue Qi. 

    It is disgustingly easy for him to do. The Sect Leader has been made vulnerable, and there aren’t any guards in front of his room? No one looking over him, to make sure that no one takes advantage? Secrecy alone is not enough to keep him safe, especially if all of the Peak Lords are in the know. Shen Qingqiu would have a sharp word with Mu Qingfang for the lax security on his peak, but that would be a little like the thief telling the lord to look after his goods better. His martial brother is only lucky that Shen Qingqiu isn’t seeking to kill their Sect Leader. 

    He thinks. 

    He’s still making up his mind.

    Shen Qingqiu gets Yue Qi back.

    Summary

    Xie Lian had only meant to rest his eyes for a moment before he started reading through the scroll about gods and ghosts that Ling Wen had given him.

    How could he ever know that he would end up opening them only to find himself in a strange place, decked in luxury and red- so much red.

     

    Or the pair fic to my previous work, where past Xie Lian wakes up in his marital bed, 30 years later, and suddenly has to face his husband...

    His very shirtless husband.
