    Summary

    “A-Xu. I just got doused in boiling broth from shoulder to fingertips, I smell overwhelmingly of chicken soup and I almost killed you. The sun rises over the pool, feathers shine like jewels, it is a beautiful day.”

    Zhou Zishu gently pulled away and squatted down in front of him. “You didn’t ‘almost kill’ me, you arrogant bastard. You didn’t even come close.” He reached out, tentatively, and cupped Wen Kexing’s jaw, forcing him to look at him. He was still awfully pale, but the vacant half-smile was gone, replaced by a barely controlled expression of agony. There was a wet stripe on his left cheek, which Zhou Zishu carefully wiped away with his thumb before sealing the acupoint in his shoulder. “Let’s have a look at your arm, shall we?”

    OR: Relatively mundane kitchen disasters escalate in surprising ways at Four Season Manor.

    Summary

    “You can go on, if you want,” he said when Zhou Zishu stopped for breath. “Scold and punish me for seven years, then I will scold you for the next seven, and then we’ll have to find something else to do.”

    The thought of years took any other words out of his mouth. Zhou Zishu had gotten used to measuring time in thimblefuls. A New Year’s day, a drift of peach blossoms blown off the trees: each one, perhaps, the last he would see. There wasn’t a container in his mind big enough to hold years, decades, centuries.
