independent writing blog for vein / xiao weiying from the donghua 时光代理人 ╱ link click. not spoiler free. dark, mature, and triggering content. follow at your own discretion! 21+ interactions only. personals will be blocked. canon compliant with some headcanon influence. crossover, duplicate, and oc friendly. bio page in the works. rules and bio under the cut.
house of the hotheaded:
xia fei ♡ — limel1ghts.
liu xiao — timeislikemusic, violetfaded.
this blog is very low activity / low effort / a focus on interactions with friends. don’t follow me if you don’t intend to interact.
Vein is a villain before he's anything else. a mafia leader and a sadist, I don't plan to water him down. he has a few people he's softer on, but those are plotted dynamics.
I don't share his beliefs/condone any of his actions, it shouldn't have to be said but yeah.
Do not steal anything from this blog. Copying headcanons, writing styles, etc. is all really annoying and I’d rather not deal with seeing it happen.
I love crossovers and duplicates! I encourage Vein writers to come my way and enjoy this weirdo together.
There won't be much shipping here. He's not the romantic type and ships aren't my first choice in plots and I am ship exclusive with limel1ght’s’ Xia Fei and timeislikemusic’s Liu Xiao.
Dark topics include: murder, violence, harsh language, mentions of sexual harassment ( not by vein ), the dark side of the entertainment industry, abuse, unreality, suicide, cannibalism, and detailed descriptions of torture / gore.
No godmodding, no proshipping, no minors / no shipping minors with adults, no bigotry, and no weirdness pls. I don't engage in drama or associate with gross ppl and I especially have a low bandwidth for constant negative posting / excessive ooc.
If you have a problem with me, I’d appreciate for you to come into my IM’s with it! As that is what I’d do if I had one myself. I also don’t engage with fearmongering / doom posting / baseless assumptions of me or others around me.
I'm sure I'll write more for this but these are the basics / most important.
basics.
name: vein / xiao weiying.
dob, age: august 23 ╱ 25-28 years old. depending on timeline.
height: 6’2”.
occupation: head of bridon’s chinese chamber of commerce. running an underground operation of organized crime syndicate. owns a modeling agency as a hobby / side project.
status: faked death. undercover.
bio: the youngest son to an organized crime empire, Xiao Weiying was not destined for the ‘throne’, nor would he inherit the ‘crown.’ He grows older with sheer bitterness for his eldest brothers who all had greater chances to inherit their father’s wealth after his passing. But with a little help from an “unexpected” fire and a few friends behind the scenes, his family is caught in the blaze. Thus, the pathway is paved for him to bathe in gold and luxury.
Xiao Weiying becomes Vein. Vein becomes a force to be reckoned with. Extortion. Bribery. Blackmail. Murder. Cannibalism. The list goes on, and Vein indulges in the privilege and status his family name carried. Despite the wealth and infamy, all his dealings take place behind the scenes. Vein, in all his horrific nature, is the man behind the curtain. The last face one would see before death.
headcanons: here.
I know link click s3 will give us all the answers but my brain is so curious as to what Vein was doing from the ages 19-24 since he’s a 25 year old mafia boss. I’m trying to work a timeline in my head if he overthrew his father / the crime empire as a kid or in his late teenage years!!! But imagining him as more fiery and impulsive, only to become the calculated and carefree man he is sounds about right.
vein missing his prior life so bad, and choosing to smile and laugh / try to feel like he's not a living ghost by lurking in xia fei's stream while hanging out with liu xiao's owl... what if i die
Once upon a time, I might’ve deemed Vein as wrath but with the new content… I’m understanding more the decision to make him into pride. There’s parallels between Vein and the many tellings of Lucifer. Lucifer’s sin was pride ( and hubris ), similarly to Vein. Both usurped their fathers. Both felt entitled to greatness and notoriety. Both wanted to mark their path to power in blood, and both fell from grace. Lucifer and Satan are tied to each other in such a way, some tellings say they’re the same person ( they are not. )
It becomes more interesting when looking to Lu Guang- depicted as wrath. The same sin as Satan. Lu Guang often times as a demon whilst Cheng Xiaoshi is an angel. However, I’m looking to Vein more in this analysis. If Lucifer and Satan are the same person or exist in tandem, this points to more similarities between him and Lu Guang than they’d both like to admit to. Both are willing to take things too far, to get what they believe is rightfully theirs.
Hi friends!!!!! Missing you all lots and can’t wait to make this gremlin ( vein ) wreak havoc!!!! But in the meantime, enjoy some highlights from Maishima seaside park! 💙

“ is that measly sweatshirt supposed to be keeping you warm? You look like you’ll catch your death out here. ” he holds his umbrella over their head, clearly someone hadn’t anticipated the rain today. awfully typical of bridon and its fickle weather.

English subs by me.
June 8, 2025: Video has been reuploaded to edit a typo
The subs don’t quite capture it, but Vein actually speaks like some ancient warrior or some other ancient domineering figure.
In the beginning, he lists six classic Chinese cold weapons: 刀枪剑戟棍棒, followed by the chengyu (4-character idiom) 百无禁忌 “All taboos are off”. (If you’re familiar, this is also what Xie Lian from TGCF always says, albeit translated as “no paths are bound.”)
The next line is 天圆地方碰撞. A literal translation would be “the round sky and square earth collide,” alluding to ancient Chinese cosmology. But I prefer translating it as simply “Heaven and earth collide.” This would smoothly connect it to the next line—“so let’s test your luck now” because the world is in chaos, so let’s see how lucky you can be.
Why is it always "I love you," and never "I want to sink my teeth into your soul, crawl inside your skin, and bury myself in your dark warmth with insatiable hunger, binding our blood in a rhythm so deep with such ferocity that the earth sighs, and not even the cold grasp of death could pull us apart?"
