Title: What if a mad wind rocked us both? Author: BeneaththeBrim Summary: Zhan Yunfei was one of the girls, according to Tianji Hall’s second mistress. She shared herself with him under this pretext, all her likes and her worries and her biting commentary. This was already more than enough for a lifetime. Zhan Yunfei had annealed his heart when it became too brittle; he managed his expectations and allowed closeness to grease it sparingly, a trickle of oil to ward off rust. He wouldn’t make the same mistakes as in the past, and he would hammer his infatuations into bowls of pounded brass, all-receiving. Always empty. Always empty—she, too, loved another, and he expected it. She loved so many and so much, so it didn’t hurt. Didn’t bend him out of shape. Certainly didn’t break him. The young master came back for the wedding, mysterious friend in tow. And it was his face after all. A pallid Li Xiangyi carrying no sword, a drop of ice water in Zhan Yunfei’s sparingly oiled heart.

Crossed swords, crossed cups by BeneaththeBrim Fandoms: 莲花楼 | Mysterious Lotus Casebook (TV) Explicit Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Rape/Non-Con M/M Complete Work Tags Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Rape/Non-Con, Di Feisheng/Li Lianhua | Li Xiangyi, Di Feisheng, Li Lianhua | Li Xiangyi, Jiao Liqiao, Fang Duobing, Shan Gudao, Medicine Demon (Mysterious Lotus Casebook), Brief appearances from Su Xiaoyong and Wuyan, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Missing Scene, Porn With Plot, Hurt/Comfort, Post-Canon Fix-It, Graphic Torture, the noncon is JLQ/DFS, Flashbacks also reference to both of them having been raped in the past, including past SGD/LXY, DFS pov, angsty sex Summary Di Feisheng’s old impalement wound was long healed, but he chose to keep the scars over his heart, front and back. Li Lianhua ought to have seen them, and known what they meant. Crossed swords, crossed cups, consummation. You were in me and I was in you, where we sealed our martial understanding. Where we cleaved all else apart. Di Feisheng took Li Lianhua’s chin in his hand. He stared at the dark mirrors of himself in the black of Li Xiangyi’s eyes. “My heart stopped after our battle on the East Sea; my Bitterwind Poplar fought to restart it. I know what death feels like. It’s cold. It’s excruciating. You won’t get to feel the bliss you take from getting fucked when you die. Don’t succumb to death as easily as you succumb to me, Xiangyi.” Li Lianhua stared at him for a beat, dazed. Then, he laughed. “Lao-Di, ah, don’t think that your jade pillar will save me.”
