    Summary

    “Gege doesn’t have to do anything that makes him uncomfortable,” Hua Cheng murmured as his hand slid lower, fingers caressing over Xie Lian’s tented trousers. “But it seems like he likes the idea.”

    He leaned in, close enough that his lips barely brushed the shell of Xie Lian’s ear, voice dropping to a whisper. “Do you like the idea of dominating your San Lang? Forcing him to do devious things for the sake of his devotion?”

    Xie Lian’s composure unraveled all at once. His lashes lowered over half-lidden eyes. The heat rising in his chest spread quickly, coloring his expression, leaving him thoroughly flustered. He reached forward, catching Hua Cheng’s lips in a deep kiss.

    When he pulled back, it was only by a fraction, his voice soft and unsteady. “You want me to pretend… it’s my first banishment?”

    OR: After acquiring temporary amnesia pills, Hua Cheng convinces Xie Lian to indulge one of his darkest fantasies. He wishes for Xie Lian to roleplay as a calamity, still in the agony of his first banishment, taking advantage of his most devoted believer, Wu Ming. Xie Lian is more than willing to give it a shot.

    Summary

    And then when he looked a bit closer, at the same jaw line, at the same black hair, at the same collar bone, at the same boy, Xie Lian realized his touch felt even more familiar then anything else.

    The same rough hand that held his hand so gently.

    "...Wu Ming?"

    OR: Hua Cheng has Hanahaki for Xie Lian while Xie Lian has it for Wu Ming, and the prince realizes sooner then later that the two are the same person.
