Reread all of Guardian over the course of two days and I gotta say, Shen Wei is so funny.
The way he's so dramatic? I mean, "Live or die, it'll be by my hand"? "I'm giving you a choice but I'm not giving you anytime to think about it, tell me your answer now"?? "I guess I'll sacrifice myself without taking you with me but I'll take all of your memories of me with me"??? Man's amazing. The way Zhu Hong totally called that he was manipulating Zhao Yunlan and told Zhao Yunlan about it, and Yunlan ultimately decided to let himself be manipulated? The way he tells Zhao Yunlan that he's manipulating Yunlan and Yunlan still goes with it?
I love drama Shen Wei but unhinged, barely-able-to-control-his-urges, thinks-about-murdering-his-beloved-so-they-can-never-be-used-against-him, was-only-chill-with-the-sacrificing-himself-plan-if-he-could-sacrifice-his-beloved-along-with-him, manipulative, scheming little mountain ghost Shen Wei will always be my favourite.
I mean, come on. Man literally unpossessed his own body when he got drunk. He stalked his crush for thousands of years. He has a room full of photos and paintings of one guy. He's the final boss of yearning and obsession. He's absolutely wild. Mad even. But he also very carefully takes care of all of Yunlan's subordinates because he knows they're dear to him and he takes care of Yunlan even to his own detriment and they laugh together and are comfortable together and I just find Zhao Yunlan caving to Shen Wei hilarious like. Zhao Yunlan is so mad that he's not topping but we all know Shen Wei's pouting him into bottoming and the mental image is just so funny.
