    Summary

    They meet at one of Jin Zixuan's barbecues, in the fancy house halfway up the coastal hills. Behind Wei Ying's shoulders and bitten-down mouth, sunset is staining the salt flats orange.

    (Or, Lan Zhan loses his battle against sexting, NBA Live, and diner food, but wins the war)

    Summary

    Lan Wangji had always known he was different. One day, his brother and uncle sat him down, and told him that the reason was called autism. But that was fine, because he didn’t need to be like everyone else. He knew exactly what he loved: rules.

    It made perfect sense, then, to become an attorney. With an encyclopaedic knowledge of every law on the books, Hanbada law firm had never seen such a stellar win record from an associate. His life was going exactly to plan. He ate gimbap, he won cases, he had one whole friend, and he knew everything there was to know about whales rabbits.

    Why, then, did a legal investigator named Wei Wuxian want to upend it all?

    Summary

    “It is for charity,” is all Lan Zhan says, neatly folding the paper back up. “Please provide me with my clues.”

    “That is the spirit!” Nie Huaisang says, a smile gracing his face again as he pulls out an envelope made of a thick, stocky paper. “There’s just one more thing,” Nie Huaisang adds. His grin looks less friendly, more sinister than before. “The Jiangs confirmed their attendance.”

    Lan Zhan’s face would have fallen if he’d been making any expression.

    Lan Zhan attends his brother's themed fundraiser night, and spends most of the evening pretending like he's not entirely obsessed with Wei Ying. It turns out Wei Ying might just be obsessed with Lan Zhan, though.

    Summary

    “You’re in the hospital,” she says. “You were in a traffic accident, and–"

    “No, I heard that. But–” Wei Ying glances at the extremely pretty man, who’s just staring at him, completely still. His empty hands hover in the air. “I don’t need anyone to take care of me. I just wanna go home."

    “You are going home,” Yanli reaches over and tucks his hair behind his ear, giving him a tiny smile. “Don’t worry. Just a few more scans, and then Lan Zhan can take you back."

    “Who’s Lan Zhan?” he asks.

    The pretty man by his side inhales so sharply Wei Ying feels the air get sucked out of the room.

    -

    Wei Ying gets in a traffic accident and loses six years of his memories, including meeting and marrying the love of his life. This is the story of how he falls back in love with Lan Zhan: quickly, and inevitably.

    Or, my take on one of my favorite tropes.

    Summary

    Transmigrating into the stallion novel he hates most is bad enough, but why did it have to be into the body of one of the protagonist's wives? Shen Yuan spends exactly two months dealing with harem intrigues, sullen maids and his husband utterly ignoring him before he decides to go on an extended holiday. Very extended. Surely no one will care if he just forgets about being married and becomes a cultivator, right?

    (In which Luo Binghe goes on a quest to bring his errant husband home and Shen Yuan takes him on an adventure instead.)
