In the end, Shen Wei returns from Dixing. Zhao Yunlan does not.

(Until.)

******** INDEFINITE HIATUS

He just wanted to pet the fat black cat in the window.

"Brother you don't need to turn me away
I was waiting down at the ancient gate
You go
Wherever you go today
You go today"

- Fleet Foxes, "Mykonos"

It's an hour of Chu Shuzhi's life he's never getting back.

New Year's morning, a sofa.

Shen Wei couldn’t keep this up forever. Zhao Yunlan honestly wasn’t even sure how he’d managed for this long.

Shen Wei is inexperienced and eager; Zhao Yunlan is delighted. They are both having the time of their life.

Zhao Yunlan laughs silently, ribcage shaking. “Embarrassed, bao bei? You shouldn’t be, you came five times. That’s some godly stamina.”

“Zhao Yunlan!”

Silently, two people in the SID find themselves pining for one another. If only they could get over their obliviousness and find each other!

"Tell you the truth," Zhao Yunlan says, and Shen Wei knows what's coming is unlikely to be true, "I really don't know why, but the moment I saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity."

The Regent of Dixing is dead, but that's only creating more problems for Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan.

It was ironic, Shen Wei thought. After all the nonsensical information he had made Zhao Yunlan sit through, he had still not expected to be attacked by bears.

Shen Wei has never seen Zhao Yunlan so openly vulnerable before, or so willingly leaning into him.

Shen Wei almost doesn't return the kiss.

Chu Shuzhi puts Professor Shen under surveillance.

It had been a successful evening—Shen Wei had accepted his apology for the hidden camera, they’d cut Cong Bo’s blackmail off at the knees and recruited him as a consultant to the SID, and Shen Wei had been unusually relaxed and forthcoming afterwards, telling Zhao Yunlan about his Dixing power. They worked well together; it made Zhao Yunlan hungry for more.

Shen Wei doesn't need subtitles. But we do.
