Summary:

“Perhaps I should tell you—” Lan Zhan begins, and then stops.

“Tell me…” Wei Ying prompts. He knows exactly what’s coming—I’m dating someone, I have a boyfriend. I’m married, maybe. Lan Zhan had never seemed like the marrying type, but he could have changed his mind.

So that’s where Wei Ying’s thoughts are when Lan Zhan says, “I’m an eco-terrorist.”

Wei Ying chokes on his drink.

Medieval coin hoard could be one of the largest ever discovered in Scotland

The discovery, known as the 'Dunscore hoard,' is made up of more than 8,400 silver coins that date from the 13th and 14th centuries.

Another huge coin hoard found, and I am as yet hoardless. I really should move to a country that has the slightest possibility of coin hoards. New Zealand is sadly lacking in them, although perfect in many other ways.

Summary:

“You should make a Tinder account for campaigning,” Nie Huaisang says.

Wei Ying chokes out, “What?”

“Sounds like an absolutely terrible idea,” Jiang Cheng says flatly.

“No, it’s a great idea!” Nie Huaisang insists. “You just swipe right on everyone and then send them a message about how they should vote for you. You’re hot, Wei Ying! People will definitely match with you and then you can swoop in and hit them with the politics!”

“I don’t even have Tinder,” Wei Ying protests. He’d downloaded the app in first year but had quickly deleted it after a girl responded to his message of wanna get a drink with yeah sure, what time?

“That can be easily fixed,” Nie Huaisang says.
