    Summary

    Jiang Cheng sacrifices himself to save Jin Ling, because it's Jin Ling and besides, no one needs him anymore.
    But he opens his eyes to find himself in the body of a demonic cultivator, cursed to keep his true identity secret, and to his surprise, the cultivation world is in mourning.

    “I’m sure all your uncle would want is for you to be happy,” Jiang Cheng said quietly.
    “And now I know for sure you aren’t him,” Jin Ling said, a broken smile on his face as another tear fell, “He never talked to me this nicely.”

    Summary

    Sitting in the passenger seat while his boyfriend drives at a reasonable speed is one of the most frustrating things in the world. Jiang Cheng has never had a problem with Lan Xichen’s driving, but he’s also never had to rush to the hospital upon hearing that his brother is in the hospital, and that is more than enough firsts for today.

    (Or: Jiang Cheng learns a thing or two about Lan Wangji while they sit in Wei Wuxian's hospital room.)

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng hates seeing that look, hates the regret and resentment that begins to rise in his stomach. Jiang Cheng wonders if he could handle seeing that look on his brother’s past face, the face Jiang Cheng grew up with. His only solace is in the fact that that is not truly Wei Wuxian’s face, not really his eyes watching Jiang Cheng with trepidation. Except it’s not really comforting at all, because he is soon reminded that Wei Wuxian is inhabiting another’s body because he died and Jiang Cheng watched him die just like he watched a-jie and his parents die.

     

    Because of a storm, Jiang Cheng is confronted with Feelings and forced to have an Actual Conversation with Wei Wuxian.

    Summary

    “Is that…?” Lan Wangji whispered. The juniors were looking back and forth between Jiang Cheng and...Jiang Cheng. 

    The man that stood before them, weapon at the ready, was most certainly Jiang Cheng, from everything down to his hairstyle, icy scowl, and his glowing whip. But he appeared much younger, almost by two decades.

    “What is this?” The younger Jiang Cheng snapped, Zidian began to spark angrily. “Is this some sort of trick? What the hell is going on? Are you the reason why we’re here?”

    “...We?” The older Jiang Cheng mumbled in confusion. But then all of a sudden, he saw a baby version of his nephew peek out behind the man’s leg, staring at the two Jiang Chengs with a look of wonder and amazement.

But he's suddenly forced to confront his past. His younger self, still grieving and spiteful over losing everything, is brought to the future, along with a baby Jin Ling. Pain and healing ensue.)

    Summary

    “I mean your face is pale. I can practically see the veins from under your skin. You have huge bags under your eyes. It took us ten minutes to walk here, but my room is only two buildings away from yours. And don’t think I didn’t notice how out of breath you looked when you sat down. Also-”

    “Okay!” Jiang Cheng snapped. “I get it. I’ve had better days.”

    “Jiujiu, when was the last time you actually slept?” Jin Ling squinted at his Uncle.

    “I slept last night!” Jiang Cheng lied, crossing his arms over his chest.

    “Liar!” Jin Ling crossed his arms as well. “You wouldn’t look this terrible if that were true!”

    “Fine!” Jiang Cheng rubbed at his eyes that were surely red from fatigue at this point.“I haven’t slept since I left for the Yao Sect.” He admitted.

    “Uncle! That’s almost five days without rest!”
