yin yu (tian guan ci fu)

Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made. Faith. His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs. "I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him. I remember you. I remember you. I will always, for as long as I live, remember you. (A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.) (MULTIPLE TRANSLATIONS AVAILABLE)

Once the lecture was over, Xie Lian stood up abruptly, a sudden urge to talk to the youth blossoming inside him. He descended the stairs quickly, mindful not to bump into anyone, and waited near the door for the youth to appear. When Xie Lian noticed the youth's face among the others, his heart quickened once again. He opened his mouth to speak, but no sounds emerged, a sudden and strange feeling filling his body, warmth spreading over his cheeks as he gazed at the youth's face from such a close distance. Xie Lian found himself unable to utter a word, mesmerized by the youth's beauty. All the courage Xie Lian had gathered within dispersed in that moment. His hands reached for his heart, clutching the soft fabric of his white pullover, his eyes following the youth as he left the lecture hall, never once glancing in Xie Lian’s direction.
