Summary
Techno Blade has been forced to suffer through courting season in L'Manburg long enough to know that courting isn't his thing. He'd much rather be spending his time at his cabin or doing anything rather than stand around and be gawked at.
Your first courting season has most certainly not gone to plan - the richest and most powerful man in L'Manburg has chosen you to be his suitor, but you can't bring yourself to love him.
With Techno's inheritance on the line, and your heart, you strike a last-minute deal to ensure he never has to suffer through another courting season, and you never have to worry about marrying the wrong man. Only issue?
Pretending to court feels a lot like falling in love.

Summary
Star crossed rivals, star crossed adversaries. Star crossed equals. In a strange way, Wei Wuxian believed him and Lan Wangji to be all that, from the very first moment they’ve met. From the very first moment he laid eyes on the legendary Hanguang Jun, the younger Jade of GusuLan himself. Yet, if someone were to tell him in that moment, they were so much more, if someone from the future came, revealing all that was to come, telling him he will not only fall in love with the Jade, but deem them star crossed soulmates, proclaim their love story to be the greatest one ever told, he, Wei Wuxian, would laugh into the person’s face. “Hanguang Jun and I, we are akin to fire and ice,” he would say, “put the two together, and neither will survive.”
He, off course, could not have been more wrong. And perhaps the force which seemed to have drive him toward Lan Wangji at all times, the craving for the man’s presence, should have been indicative of that from the very beginning.
Many a time however, what is in plain sight for others to see, is most obscured, from the one which it concerns.
With Wei Wuxian, it always seemed to have been the case at least...- Language:
