    Summary

    With the confirmation that Mr. Hollander is attending, Ilya absolutely will follow. Even if only for a few hours, they’ll occupy the same space, the same room, maybe even talk together, laugh at jokes. Of course Ilya will attend the gala, but he can’t be too excited, lest Mr. Hollander smells his callowness through the phone, so he settles for a meek: “Maybe.”

    Galas generally disinterest Ilya. Every rule, however, has its exception; after all, how could he turn down an invitation to an event he knows Mr. Hollander will be at?

    Summary

    "The house is beautiful. It’ll need a little bit of work, but it has a lot of character.” Xie Lian accepted the keys when she offered them, turning the ring thoughtfully between his fingers. “I still don’t know why the previous owner abandoned it.”

    The realtor’s smile faltered almost imperceptibly. She shifted her weight and glanced toward the house before hesitantly looking back at him. “The house has been on the market for years,” she said carefully. “I couldn’t tell you why the last owner left, but it appears the house has a high turnover rate.” Her fingers tightened slightly around the clipboard tucked against her side. “Once someone moves in, they don’t stay for very long.”

    OR: On the verge of losing his apartment, Xie Lian jumps at the opportunity to purchase a beautiful old Victorian home for a fraction of what it’s worth. After a series of strange occurrences, Xie Lian begins researching the property's history. He quickly discovers that one name keeps appearing: Hua Cheng. An eighteen-year-old young man who died in the house nearly a century ago.

    Summary

    They had hugged longer than usual. Because Hua Cheng was leaving.

    … right?

    With his arms wrapped tightly around Hua Cheng’s neck, Xie Lian had stood on his tiptoes and trembled in Hua Cheng’s arms. Because it had been morning and the air outside was still cool.

    …right?

    Then why had Xie Lian whispered, “Bye, bye, San Lang,” instead of “See you soon,” as he always had?

     

    _
    Or: Hua Cheng sacrificed part of his body to return to the past and prevent the tragedy that had taken the life of his best friend—Xie Lian—for whom he had feelings.

    Summary

    Hong Hua’s attention settled immediately on Xie Lian, eyes lingering with a subtle admiration, before quickly diverting to Lang Qianqiu.

    “Your Highness,” he greeted, stepping forward and bowing with practiced precision, “I hadn’t expected the honor of your presence today.”

    Lang Qianqiu smiled, clearly in high spirits. “We came at the State Preceptor’s suggestion. He thought it best that I observe and demonstrate my current understanding.”

    Hong Hua inclined his head again. “Then it is our good fortune to be under the State Preceptor’s guidance today.” His attention settled once more on Xie Lian, a faint warmth touching his expression.

    “Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Hong Hua.” He bowed his head, measured but sincere. “I have long heard of the State Preceptor’s skill. If I may be permitted, I would be honored to witness it for myself.”

    OR: Hua Cheng finds Xie Lian three hundred years earlier, during his time as Fangxin Guoshi in Yong'an. To get close to Xie Lian, Hua Cheng joins the Yong'an Infantry under the alias of a young solider, Hong Hua, and must gain Lang Qianqiu's trust to become a member of the Imperial Guard, the personal bodyguard of the Crown Prince of Yong'an.
