Chang Geng's pupils contracted. He reached into the heavy armor to pull Gu Yun down by the neck and, throwing all caution to the wind, pressed a kiss to those wind-chapped lips. (page 31)
This time was different from the farewell kiss they shared at the capital ramparts; it lacked the intensity of desperation. Gu Yun felt as though a corner of his heart had collapsed, offering up the softest spot in his chest. From now on, this person is mine. (page 157)
"Zixi, just now, I...I honestly thought I was dreaming." (page 256)
"In all my life, I've never had such a wonderful dream, " he said with a hint of self-mockery. His mouth crooked up in a stiff smile. "If only I never woke up. "
Catching sight of Chang Geng in the distance, Gu Yun waved him over. "Chang Geng, come here, I'll play a little something for you". (page 319)
An earnest attempt to play was what Chang Geng most feared. He strode over and wrapped his arms around Gu Yun, pulling him off his perch atop the railing. He leaned close to his ear and murmured, "Save your mouth for other things."
While everyone was screaming themselves hoarse fighting with the great condor, Chang Geng had stealthy licked Gu Yun's neck. (page 342)
Beneath the din, Chang Geng breathed into his ear, "Dying for love right here wouldn't be so bad, would it?"
Their rizz is unparalleled and I love that they take turns. This volume has so much character development for both of them. I also love a good third-wheel and Shen Yi is a perfect example.
