Summary
When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.
It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Xie Lian has a plan.
“Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
His voice caught.
“I mean, to—”
Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
“As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”- Language:

Summary
After Hua Cheng disappears in a flurry of silver butterflies, Xie Lian waits for his return. Rumours whisper across the land. Crimson Rain Sought Flower has returned and is ruling over Ghost City. And he doesn't remember Xie Lian at all.
“Did daozhang think he could come here, flash his enchanted eyes, and pull one over on the Ghost King?” Hua Cheng coos.
Xie Lian’s teeth begin to chatter. “My enchanted…my…aha—”
“I have never seen a performance quite like it in all my long years. Daozhang must be very experienced in getting his way just by fluttering his long lashes. But is he truly foolish enough to believe this act will work on me? Does he think I will fall for his tricks?”
*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ
Or: Hua Cheng is cursed and has no memory of his beloved. Xie Lian takes a job in Ghost City to try to get Hua Cheng to fall in love with him again before he dissipates.

Summary
In whatever form Hua Cheng was allowed to have Xie Lian, he would take it and it would be good enough. Yet he couldn’t help the aching in his soul, the yearning in his heart for something else, something more.
—
Or: to escape an arranged marriage to Jun Wu, Xie Lian instead arranges a marriage to a mysterious yet oddly familiar Hua Cheng.

Summary
“Why are you being so kind to me?”
That wasn’t at all what Xie Lian had wanted to ask. He had a million questions echoing around in his head, and that one was not a part of them. He had no idea why that left his mouth, but as it did, he realized he wanted to know the answer.
San Lang looked surprised by the question, but after a moment, his expression softened and he leaned his head on the hand that was propped up on the back of the divan. “Because you deserve kindness.”
-
When Xie Lian finally gets out of the coffin, instead of walking away from Yong'An for good, he decides to turn back and see for himself what was left of the city. What he didn't expect was to meet a strange man intent on helping him.
