    Summary

    "Were you saying that only because you were dying?" Typically even that Zhang Qiling asked in the most neutral voice you could've imagined.

    "W..what?" Wu Xie knew very well, what Xiaoge was asking, but he really wanted to postpone this conversation as much as possible, so he had time to decide which way to go with this.

    "Were you only saying that because you were dying?" He repeated stubbornly and monotonously, leaving him no ways out.

    Summary

    Xiaoge wakes up late. He checks on his phone to see that it’s already eight in the morning. Perhaps, he just feels comfortable enough in his sleep that he overslept. Regardless, it’s not the time that catches Xiaoge’s attention next.

    Today is August 17th. Wu Xie and Pangzi always celebrate it as the day Xiaoge came out of the Bronze Gate. Every year they buy a big cake, prepare a feast with lots of alcohol, and invite their friends.

    “You know that today is August 17th, right?” Xiaoge nods, and Wu Xie continues. “We usually celebrate it as the day you come out of the Bronze Gate. But, uh… I want this date to be… different? Something more… special? For us?”

    Xiaoge has no idea where this is going. Wu Xie reaches inside his pocket, and pulls out a red velvet box.

    Summary

    Act with no regrets.

    Move decisively, and do not second guess.

    Hesitation in a tomb is death.

    Zhang Qiling had taken these lessons to heart so long ago that they had imprinted themselves upon his being in a way that he could never ignore. These were the lessons of a protector, of a warrior, of a living weapon. These were the lessons of Zhang Qiling.

    He had not hesitated to walk through the Bronze Door.

    He had not hesitated to leave his life, and those in it, behind him.

    He had not hesitated to protect the only man he had ever chosen to protect.

    He had not expected to return.

    He had not expected Wu Xie to be waiting for him, as he'd promised.

    …he had not expected Wu Xie to be so changed.
