Summary:

Hei Xiazi wants it known that he can do Romance. He wants it known. All the pretty things - the flowers, the beautiful moon - the lovely lies that boil down to a simple truth, you matter to me. He’s good at that when he cares to make an effort, and in a long life he has cared more than is perhaps good for him.

Wu Xie isn’t looking for Romance here.

That’s alright. Hei Xiazi’s pretty good at doing ‘Real’, too.

When Wu Xie's mind goes wandering, Hei Xiazi helps pin him down.
