    Summary

    But it was … natural. As if the ceremony had peeled away the last barriers of propriety between the couple. By no stretch was it flawless, but it certainly was precious. Without the constant force of wanting what he couldn’t have, and without Maomao’s incessant ignorance to his affection, Jinshi found it very easy to tilt her chin up and finish a conversation they had started many years before. It turns out when she is compliant, Maomao responds rather enthusiastically - to his kiss, his embrace, his hoisting her like a sack of rice before he laid her out on their bed.

    or

    Jinshi finally gets his girl and he's sentimental after.

    Summary

    There's an odd girl at the back of the throng.

    To the casual eye, she looks completely average. She wears the same soft cream and dull yellow uniform of the other girls around her. She is small and slight, and her cheeks are dotted with freckles. Among the other palace girls surrounding her, she blends in perfectly. She could be any girl from any far-flung village of Li.

    But her eyes—they are what catch his attention. They are what draw him in.

    Or: Snapshots of Jinshi and Maomao, throughout the years--of their scars, their mistakes, and a little red string that endures through it all. An exploration of love, fate, and the choices we make, told in twenty-six parts.

    Summary

    Jinshi didn't sleep without the smell of Maomao, but even with that smell he didn't just sleep.

    Something that became a problem when Maomao was actually sleeping in his bed, holding onto him as she dreamed what he could only hope was something of him, all while he was kept awake by desires that screamed at him to have her as he so very wanted. Desires that could not be put back into a box as he had once managed for her sake, no it was long past time to act, and she was so wanting so what was truly the harm?

    They both wanted this, what did the circumstance change that?

    Summary

    "I believe you, sir." She puts two fingers to his chin and pushes his face away. He continues to pout.

    It really is still him.
