A short and sweet: post Guardian/Zhenhun - somewhere in the future- Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan are abroad on a very formal business trip, which involves certain dress codes and Shen Wei takes the opportunity to treat himself and rent a diamond necklace. Zhao Yunlan wants to convince his husband to keep said necklace in classic Zhao Yunlan style.

There was no point in coming home early, just as there was no point in going home at all. Now, alone there, Zhao Yunlan thought about that and how he had been so angry about the situation for so long that he hadn't even tried to figure out how his spouse's embrace and kiss felt.
His spouse. Not anymore.
He was gone away.
Not because he said he wanted to leave, but because Zhao Yunlan told him to go. He had told Wu Xie that that damn deal between their families was stupid and that Wu Xie should go away and have his own life, because here, where he hadn't chosen to be, he would never have anything to call happiness. But now Zhao Yunlan wondered if he might not have tried to find some happiness with the spouse who was once his. Perhaps it was his fault more than anyone else's for all the tears he had seen Wu Xie shed.

Zhao Yunlan walks into the SID office with Shen Wei running his hands through a brand-new hairstyle, and everybody in the office gets the, "Oh yeah, I tapped that," message loud and clear.

Well, almost everyone.

Professor Shen smiled with a perfect ease that was almost infectious enough for Changcheng to take a proper breath. "I'm here for a few minutes," he said, "so if I can help, take your time. Were you discussing something downstairs?"

He nodded, recalling the last several confusing moments, and trying to decide how best to sum them up. "I guess I wasn't sure why everyone thought it was important that Chief Zhao changed his hair? And then Lin Jing-ge said..." After briefly considering what Lin Jing-ge had said, Changcheng shook his head. It couldn't be appropriate to say sex words in front of Professor Shen.

Kneeling was not difficult. Whatever pride he lost, however belittling it felt, it didn’t matter as long as Zhao Yunlan could regain his sight. (The selfish side of Shen Wei had revelled in the way Zhao Yunlan clung to him, easily reached for him to guide him, trusting Shen Wei would be there, would keep Zhao Yunlan safe; but the Good Fight required Zhao Yunlan at full capacity and Zhao Yunlan’s own happiness demanded his eyesight so Shen Wei would not be selfish.)

To go from having Zhao Yunlan’s eyes look at him but not see him to have Zhao Yunlan’s eyes find him and actually seeing him made Shen Wei’s heart flutter. The easy, relieved smile on Zhao Yunlan’s face made his whole body sing.

That moment of joy made it all that much harder to confront Feng Qübing only days later and witness Zhao Yunlan, once again, make the selfless decision.
