Summary
“The last words that your soulmate will say to you appear on your skin” they say and the thought sounds truly beautiful in theory. But what happens when someone doesn’t have their soulmate’s words on the skin of their wrist?
Wen Kexing has spent the majority of his life frustrated with the fact that there was not a single word imprinted on his skin by fate. He’d always thought it was some sick joke the fate was playing on him, but it all changes when he learns about the reason why there will never be any last words from his soulmate. It turns out fate is not as sick as he thought and it certainly is more powerful than he’d ever imagined.
Or: All the times Wen Kexing agonised over not having a soulmate through the few times he started hoping to the time he figures everything out.

Summary
“Out with it, which one of my enemies will I have to work with?” he inquiries.
“Zhou Xu,” hearing the name, Wen Kexing curses. “He’s gonna be playing your character’s closest friend.”
“Why does it have to be him of all people?” he whines, unhappy.
It’s common knowledge that Wen Kexing and Zhou Xu didn’t get along. The relationship between them was strained at best and no one’s entirely sure what caused it. They met by chance one day and somehow became friends. They used to talk a lot and spend time together, but after a while, it ceased as they changed their attitude towards one another completely.
Or: Wenzhou actors AU in which they hate each other, but have to work together

Summary
“Get Zhou Zishu to fall in love with you, I'll even pay you 500 if you manage,” says someone and Wen Kexing takes the offer with no hesitation, thinking “what can happen?”. Worst case scenario, another guy will end up hating him. It wouldn't even be the first time. It's easy too, he thinks; after all, the only thing he needs to do is use his charms to make the guy fall for him and then break his heart in a seemingly cruel manner that will make him feel nothing at all. In the end, however, nothing goes according to his plan as he finds himself falling in love with Zhou Zishu.

Summary
Zhou Zishu opens his eyes.
Instead of waking up in the same place he has for the past five decades, he is sitting slumped by a desk in a room that he recognises, but wishes he didn't. He swallows harshly and stares down at the desk in front of him.
Seven long and thick nails lie on the table before him, along with a written record in his own hand on their usage.

Summary
“It’s okay that you miss him,” said Lan Wangji, a familiar litany to them both by now. “Do you feel sad?”
“I feel sad,” A-Yuan repeated, shoulders hitching with tiny hiccuping sniffs. “When is he coming back?”
“I don’t know. I am not sure where he is.”
But this seemed to frustrate A-Yuan. “Xian-gege! I miss him! Please, baba?” He looked up at him with wet cheeks and a wide, quivering frown. “Please baba can you ask him? I really miss him!” He sobbed again, heartbreakingly.
It stabbed straight through him, cracking open the reservoir of loss and helplessness that was all his own. His child’s grief did that, sometimes. It always took him by surprise. He caught his breath sharply and gathered A-Yuan into his arms, holding him tight until the pain ebbed.
“I will try,” he said softly into A-Yuan’s hair, when he could speak again. He never made uncertain promises and tried not even to raise uncertain hopes, but his son was hurting. His son believed he could make it better. He couldn’t not try.
Wen Qing might at least know who this “Xian-gege” was. He would text her in the morning. It would be a start.
