    Summary

    ‘Alright, fine,’ huffs Wei Ying, blowing out his cheeks. He adjusts his grip on the smooth hilt of the sword, as cold as wet stone beneath his palm. ‘How do I give this back to you?’
    ‘I must trade with you something of equal worth,’ says the strange man.
    ‘Uh. Okay.’ Wei Ying rubs his forehead with his free hand. ‘How about your name? Your real name.’ In case he needs to file a police report or stalk this beautiful, scary man on google or something.
    The man looks even more angry. He pulls his shoulders back and draws himself to his full height, which is rather impressive and forces Wei Ying to tip his chin up slightly.
    ‘My name is Lan Zhan,’ the man says.

    Summary

    "It is not meant to create a powerful effect; it is rather a Romance, calm and melancholy, giving the impression of someone looking gently towards a spot that calls to mind a thousand happy memories." — Chopin, on his new Concerto I in E Minor in letter to Tytus, 15 May 1830
    -

    When he heard Wei Ying’s rasping voice say, quietly, I’ve missed you, Lan Zhan, his heart skipped a beat, jumped, and then flopped right out of his chest and onto his white bedspread, a dull red stain spreading out from the throbbing scarlet mass of Wangji’s own feelings, impossible for him to ignore. Impossible for him not to see.

    Wei Ying was back.

    Summary

    Wei Ying peers up at him through dark eyelashes. Huddled in his oversized hoodie, he looks rather like a lost puppy. A nasty bloodsucking puppy, Lan Zhan reminds himself.

    “I need help,” Wei Ying says. “I need somebody to explain all this shit to me because all I’ve got to go on are a bunch of B-movies. So you, Van Helsing, are the best option I’ve got.”


    Protecting the city from supernatural menaces is a burden, but field agent Lan Zhan has always borne that burden without complaint. Then one night, he meets Wei Ying, a vampire in need of rescue. A very pretty, very pathetic vampire. Lan Zhan will mentor this ridiculous vampire, but he is absolutely going to complain about it.

    Summary

    Wei Ying leans on the bar. “So, what can I get you, Lan Zhan? Do you want your signature drink, or do you want to try something new?”

    Lan Zhan gets lost in the pretty face pushed in less than a foot from his own--and in the giddy realization that Wei Ying remembers his name. “Something new,” he says finally.

    “Great! It's harder since you don't do alcohol, but I like a challenge.” He winks at Lan Zhan before spinning around to peruse the shelves. “Are you more of a sweet or sour guy?”

    Lan Zhan’s taste in beverages pretty much begins and ends with green tea, but today is a day for risks. For climbing out of his rut and trying new things. He decided that in the last two minutes. Perhaps Wei Ying's enthusiasm is contagious.

    Or Wei Ying is a bartender who makes terrible drinks. Lan Zhan keeps going back to his bar anyway.
