Qi-deviation turned Shizun into the man he is today, he’s smiling more, and talking to Zhangmen-shibo without being angry!
But she feels like he’s not the same man who taught her how to braid her hair.

Ning Yingying wasn’t so stupid that she didn’t know what was happening. Everyone always thought that. She also wasn’t so stupid, or so kind, or maybe so enlightened, that she couldn’t hate it, too.
She hated that Shizun hit A-Luo, and she hated that she didn’t hate him.

Luo Binghe meets a kind version of his Shizun and attempts to find out what made him that way. Along the way, he talks to Ning Yingying, thinks about Ning Yingying, meets another universe's Ning Yingying, and completely fails to understand anything about Ning Yingying. She suffered under the same man as he did, right? So why are her feelings so hard to dissect?
(This is not a story about Shen Qingqiu, regardless of how badly Luo Binghe would like it to be.)

She'd never been anyone's favorite before he'd told her that, the lesser daughter of a prestigious family that had enough heirs and spares that she could be given away and the act called an honor. It was a scary but lovely thing to be the best, the most loved. When she'd heard those words she'd clutched them to her chest and hoped she'd never prove them false.
That did not mean that she did not hate him, too.
OR: Ning Yingying loves her shizun; she loves Binghe, too. These things come into conflict, whether she wants them to or not.
Thank you for all the fic recs!
