Summary
"Qin Huaizhang's disciple, I'll ask you a question first. How willing are you to let that insolent shidi of yours trade his life for yours?" Coldness suffused his veins. If that was what Lao Wen chose to do, Zhou Zishu would follow him onto the Yellow Spring Road and drag him back into this world, kicking and screaming, and murder him himself. They lived together, or not at all.
Ye Baiyi's lips curled into a sneer. "As I thought. I say, what's the point of going to all the trouble when you're just going to off yourself?"
"I didn't say anything - "
"It's written all over your dainty face."
Zhou Zishu blinked, unsure what part of that sentence he should be taking offense at, if at all.
"How willing are you to suffer the pain of death, no, pain worse than death, pain that would leave you wishing you were dead - "
"That I can do." Zhou Zishu interjected.Or, a different road taken but all roads lead to home; in which Zhou Zishu's self-inflicted accelerated hurtle toward death is discovered early on, and it turns out that Fate is capable of dealing a much kinder hand toward two men with irrevocably bloodied hands and what constitutes their found family.

Summary
“A-Xu,” Wen Kexing whispers. No movement. “A-Xu. Let me up, I need to water the night blossoms.” He laughs at his own forwardness. Ah, still not entirely sober, then.
When A-Xu doesn’t free him, he pinches him in the side.
A-Xu grunts and smacks him back, hitting his shoulder and chest several times.
“If a gentleman is awake he should let his partner leave the bed when he pleases,” Wen Kexing says.
“You’re not in bed with a gentleman,” A-Xu says.

Summary
“We’re going home,” Zhou Zishu huffs when he pulls Wen Kexing’s arms over his shoulders, then hitches his legs around his waist. He hops in place to get a good grip under the bends of his knees, then makes sure his robe is covering as much of Wen Kexing as it can. “If you die before we get there, the first thing Shixiong will do when we see each other on Naihe Bridge is hit you.”

Summary
"I don't have any certainty that it'll work," Zhou Zishu warned him, as if they didn't both already know. "I need you to be sure. I would—I'll have to break you down, until you can't see or hear or speak, and it may all be for nothing. I'll have put you through agony for nothing. Lao-Wen, I need you to be sure."
"I am," Wen Kexing said, before pulling him into a kiss that drew a desperate sound from Zhou Zishu's mouth.
What was life if not a collection of disparate days, sorted each into the bitter and the sweet? To have tasted honeyed time just once was already more than he deserved. To surrender himself here, in the end, wholly and willingly at Zhou Zishu's mercy—whatever else, it will have been worth it.
He traced the curve of that beloved, stubborn jaw. "I trust you, A-Xu. Take me apart."
