Thinking more about Qiong Ding Peak disciple Shen Yuan.
What if he transmigrates in around the same time Luo Binghe gets picked up by Qing Jing Peak? He's kicking himself because while he was still figuring out where he was and getting his bearings, the disciple selection happened, and now he's too late to interfere and try to at least get Binghe onto a different peak or something.
Not that he's totally sure that would have even been possible. At least he's got front row seats to the plot, although that does put him in the revenge splash zone too, and currently the "plot" is just a misery conga line of abuse the protagonist suffers.
Anyway he quickly decides (for purely strategic reasons) that his best option is to try and help Binghe suffer less, at least. Especially in unobtrusive ways that won't catch Shen Qingqiu's ire and make more problems. He also should probably stay off of Binghe's radar too, but given he's a man, that won't be difficult!
Luckily, one of Shen Yuan's jobs is to be the disciple who runs over to Qing Jing Peak to announce when his shizun is going to be visiting. This is lucky because Shen Qingqiu avoids the hell out of him already as part of his weird relationship with the sect leader. Shen Qingqiu's primary disciples also tend to like, turn and run away if they see Shen Yuan, because otherwise he can tell them that the sect leader is coming and then they're the poor bastards who have to tell Shen Qingqiu. The only exception is Ning Yingying, but she doesn't bully Binghe anyway.
Shen Yuan utilizes his ability to clear the area on Qing Jing Peak just by being present to grant Binghe reprieves from bullying, at first. Then he starts finding excuses to give Binghe "extra" things that he "just happened to have" and oh he thought he would pay attention to his cute juniors on QJP, but it looks like Binghe is the only one around, well Binghe is cute enough for an army of juniors anyway so he can be shixiong's audience for this latest cultivation technique he learned! Oh whoops Binghe's manual got damaged. Not to worry, Shixiong will go and get him a fresh one. Let's just keep this between us so no one gets in trouble! Wink, smile.
Shen Yuan: I am nailing the generically nice senior role!
Luo Binghe: Shixiong... ☆*: .｡. o(◕.◕)o .｡.:*☆
Anyway, to further cement his status as Not a Threat, Shen Yuan decides to take as many opportunities as possible to assert that he has no interest in women. At all. Ever. He thinks he's giving monk-like asexual vibes, a misconception that only deepens when Yue Qingyuan is like, not to worry, I'm the same way. But perhaps it does not need to come up in every conversation...?
