    Summary

    “Are you feeling compelled to tell us anything?” Lan Xichen asked.

    “Not precisely. It does feel nice. I hadn’t associated honesty with anything pleasant before now.”

    “I don’t think you’ll appreciate this in the morning,” Nie Mingjue muttered. “Do you want us to leave you be? Or gag you?”

    “I’m finding this entire affair curiously enjoyable, actually,” Meng Yao stated.

    Summary

    Nie Huaisang was yelling at him again, voice painfully shrill and piercing, but for Nie Mingjue, to hear his brother worried for him and not from him made for a nice change.

    Anyway, he himself had probably been just as shrill, when it had been his father that –

    It wasn’t that bad, he reminded himself. Baxia was as strong a presence in his mind as ever, their bond uninterrupted. It only looked bad from the outside.

    It looked – pretty bad from the outside.

    Summary

    Yan Wushi observed the changes in Shen Qiao’s expression, his own moving into something subtle. And rather unexpectedly, he softened his voice to say, “A-Qiao, don’t be too sad. Xie Ling may be gone, but this venerable one has to admit you’ve done me a great favour.”

    “Yan-zongzhu is overly gracious,” he replied curtly.

    “So even if Xie Ling is no longer here, this venerable one can feed you in his stead—”

    “Yan Wushi!” Shen Qiao suddenly burst out warningly. He couldn’t understand why the other man was bringing up Xie Ling over and over again. He’d done so a few times before in a mocking fashion, but today seemed especially excessive—and if Xie Ling was already long gone now, what was the point of still harping on this matter?
