<333 Thank you! I love this exploration of a canon divergence! More words to come on ao3 when I am less !!! and more coherent, but to start: I adore how you dig into so many characters' feelings and perspectives through this fic, and how deeply Chen Moqun and Lin Nansheng care for each other despite everything (and Gu Shenyan, too, is not immune to this desire for things to work out better)! It's delicious. <333
