The roaming love in the warm winter.

There was no point in coming home early, just as there was no point in going home at all. Now, alone there, Zhao Yunlan thought about that and how he had been so angry about the situation for so long that he hadn't even tried to figure out how his spouse's embrace and kiss felt.
His spouse. Not anymore.
He was gone away.
Not because he said he wanted to leave, but because Zhao Yunlan had told him to go. He had told Shen Wei that that damn deal between their families was stupid and that Shen Wei should go away and have his own life, because here, where he hadn't chosen to be, he would never have anything to call happiness. But now Zhao Yunlan wondered if he might not have tried to find some happiness with the spouse who was once his. Perhaps it was his fault more than anyone else's for all the tears he had seen Shen Wei shed.

How many times had Shen Wei stopped to listen to music in the streets and alleys of that city? How many times had he chosen to sit for coffee in a place where he could hear the musicians playing? And enhance that nostalgia a little more with poetic melody.
In the remaining light of the sunset, the face of a man Shen Wei had never seen and who was at the same time the most familiar thing he had encountered in weeks - or perhaps months - was framed by windblown hair and adorned with a welcoming smile that felt like home.

What if we had more time? A question Zhao Yunlan asks himself too often now that he was, where he was. Looking back over what he had accomplished, the people he met, and those he helped. His mind kept wandering to everything and nothing at the same time wondering now what could have gone differently.

Shen Wei swallows. “And this is why you asked me to—” he makes a vague gesture that means go undercover as your husband “—pretend with you.”

Zhao Yunlan comes to a stop, eyes on Shen Wei. “That’s why the cover is a married couple. The reason I’m asking you is because there are no other options for people to go undercover with.”

Shen Wei scoffs to give himself an excuse to look away. “You certainly know how to flatter someone, Zhao Yunlan.”

Zhao Yunlan shouldn't have stopped to talk to the paramedics - that was his first thought when he rounded the corner. The second, spoken aloud, was, "Professor Shen. Why is it you again?"

(a.k.a. the one where Zhao Yunlan finds Shen Wei in a highly suspicious place even earlier than episode 3/4)

In the early morning sun, the SID’s brick façade glows like a volcano. There’s already a snaking queue outside, people singly and in couples—one woman with a baby, two teenagers with a sleepy child.

Dai Jiaying joins the queue’s tail, and others soon come up behind until, logically, they’re the tail, and she’s right in the snake’s belly. She banishes the thought, shoves her doubts and misgivings away; she’s here now. She tilts her face into the sunlight and prepares to wait.
