    Summary

    Foolish he was to think that tenderness could sate Taxian-Jun’s hunger. He needed none of that from Chu Wanning. His chest burned with a scorching hatred mixed with a love that had been kicked aside like pathetic garbage on the road.

    Summary

    When the man called Taxian-Jun arrives, years later, it’s the coming of a storm. 

    He sweeps into a dinner appointment between Chu Wanning and a client, clad in black, a smirk tugging at his mouth. Over the spark of irritation, Chu Wanning can’t help but admire his lean frame, the way his hair, cut rebelliously short, falls over smoldering, dark eyes. The way he towers over him, even when Chu Wanning rises to full height. 

    Chu Wanning’s heart races as Taxian-Jun leans in close, ignoring the shouts and gasps around them.

    “Sakaki of Ran,” he purrs in their native tongue. “You’re mine.”

    Chu Wanning lifts his chin. “I don’t know you.”

    “You will,” Taxian-Jun says, and leaves.


    In which Chu Wanning is a courtesan serving Chinese merchants in Nagasaki, Japan, and Taxian-Jun decides to make him his.

    Summary

    Chu Wanning, an ancient vampire, has joined a series of evening baking classes and promptly fallen hopelessly in love with the instructor, Mo Ran.

    Unfortunately, Mo Ran thinks Chu Wanning is already taken… by the perpetually irate Tanlang Elder, who attends every class for “moral support” and keeps advising Chu Wanning to lock Mo Ran in his barn for Stockholm Syndrome purposes.

    TLDR: baker!mo ran thinks vampire!chu wanning and the tanlang elder are in a toxic vamp4vamp relationship, and he is 100% willing to be a homewrecker.

    Summary

    In the modern day era, Chu Wanning is jobless, homeless, and broke. In an event of what can only be called divine intervention, he is unexpectedly chosen to become the new Wood God of the Red Lotus shrine. The shrine, a long forgotten old relic of the past, is inhabited by Mo Ran, a powerful wolf-demon familiar who has been waiting for a thousand years for his former master to return. What will happen when he finds out that the new stranger appearing at the doorstep is not who he expected?

    Summary

    Chu Wanning hated vampires. Until he found himself drawn to one.
    Mo Ran wanted a plaything. Until he craved more.
    ________
    Chu Wanning, unemployed and desperate, began selling his blood to make ends meet, reluctantly drawing, packaging and sending small amounts to vampire clients.
    Everything changes when he gets a new client—Mo Ran, a vampire who just returned to his homeland, seeking to escape the death-stained centuries of his existence as Taxian-jun.
    Mo Ran insists on drinking directly from the source. The amount remains the same, but this client demands it warm, fresh, and dangerously intimate.

    Summary

    Mo Ran's best friend (and crush) Shi Mei is suddenly transferring from Sisheng University, and Mo Ran is devastated. But when Shi Mei tells him that the reason he's leaving is because his doctoral supervisor came onto him, Mo Ran's heartbreak turns to rage.

    He's not even surprised. Former child prodigy Chu Wanning might seem as pure as driven snow, but no one is that monomaniacally ethical, that scrupulously altruistic, without hiding some big secret.

    Then, with his parting words, Shi Mei ruefully says that he might be believed if Chu Wanning had been inappropriate with some other student too... and Mo Ran has a brilliant idea.

    Summary

    ”Should I stay away from you?” Mo Ran stepped closer, only a breath between them, his hand brushing away a strand of Chu Wanning’s hair, the path of his fingers against his neck scalding, like molten iron.

    ”It hurts my hands to keep them from you,” he all but snarled, his voice pained as if he was in agony, the words slipping from behind his teeth against his better judgement.

    ”Then don’t,” Chu Wanning said simply, twisting around to face Mo Ran, his expression steadfast and cold as if he didn’t care either way. ”Don’t stay away from me.”

     

    Or: Chu Wanning stumbles onto a cursed mountain and meets its emperor, Taxian-Jun, who doesn’t seem all that happy to see him…

    Summary

    A year after the death of his first husband, Shi Mei, of which Mo Ran blamed Chu Wanning, an imperial decree arrived: he had to marry Chu Wanning for political reasons.

    "They want me to marry him?" Mo Ran thought. "Very well. They'll see."

    During the 8 years they were married, Mo Ran showed him nothing but disdain. He favoured his concubines over his lawful husband, brought him down again and again, denied him the deference he deserved. Thus, Mo Ran didn't expect...

    ... that the only one left by his side when he was accused of sedition is his husband, Chu Wanning...

    ... that Chu Wanning would die in prison, 5 months after their imprisonment...

    And Mo Ran... Mo Ran didn't expect to come back to life in the fifth year of his marriage with Chu Wanning.

    But he's determined to make things right this time and make up for what he did to his husband in his last life.

    Summary

    Chu Wanning picks one up. “So, do we… eat them like this?”

    Taxian-jun looks at him strangely. “No, these aren’t edible. She said to plant them.”

    He feels a little offended when Chu Wanning drops the seed in surprise. “You’re going to garden?”

    “What’s with that reaction?” Taxian-jun says, folding his arms defensively. “Can’t this venerable one take up a hobby?”

    Taxian-jun takes up gardening and learns to adjust to the simple life with Chu Wanning. Contains spoilers for up to the end of the novel and the extras.

    Summary

    “See you around.”

    “Yes.”

    Another ache. Where’s around for you? Mo Ran doesn’t know anymore. He hasn’t seen him at all this past year, for all the times he’s whipped around to double-check every lean, dark-haired figure in white crossing the periphery of his vision.

    “Do you—”

    “We’re heading out,” the nurse calls out, cutting him off as they start to wheel the trolley towards the exit.

    “Yeah,” says Mo Ran. “See you,” he says, tearing himself away before he asks him something ridiculous. He doesn’t look back.

    (When first year orthopaedics resident Mo Ran sends a cardiology consult for a patient one morning, he isn't expecting it to reach the one person he's been trying all year to forget.)

    Summary

    “Chu-laoshi,” he says, ensuring that his voice is gentler, deeper, and slower than it usually is. “I'm sorry to disturb you, but do you have a minute?”

    Chu Wanning looks back. Mo Ran, who has been starved of the endless pool of Chu Wanning’s attention, helplessly moves closer and closer.

    “Do I know you?”

    Mo Ran adjusts his thick glasses, straightens up his tie, and boldly shakes his head. “Would you have forgotten me, had we met before?” he asks when he clearly knows the answer.

    Or: Mo Ran relies on the Clark Kent effect to seduce his husband.

    Summary

    When a man with the face of statue wearing the suit of an office worker arrives at Mo Ran’s tattoo shop smelling like booze, Mo Ran expects to do what he always does with drunks who think they can use alcohol to make bad decisions: turn him away at the door… or at least, turn him away once Mo Ran's gotten a chance to see how he flusters in the face of flirtation.

    Except, Chu Wanning is more than what Mo Ran first expected. When he realizes that this office worker hides a willow-branch tattoo under his cocktail-stained button up, he’s intrigued enough to offer his services.

    Only:

    Mo Ran doesn’t do tattoos. Or hasn’t in a long time.

    Chu Wanning has left him free reign over what goes on his body.

    And it turns out being professional is a bit difficult when both of you are attracted to each other and the profession demands constant physical contact.
