You cannot convince me that this is not canon Xie Lian

Xie Lian: oh this water looks deadly, let me taste it to make sure.

Hua Cheng: NOOOOOOOOOOO SPIT IT OUT!!!!

Xie Lian: *smack smack* definitely some kind of nuclear waste. No wonder the people are sick!

Hua Cheng: *passes out*

✨️TGCF Head-Canon✨️

We both know Hua Cheng has the most absolute sorry excuse for chicken scratch hand writing that Xie Lian has ever laid eyes upon. Xie Lian would have known from book 1 the Hua Cheng was down bad if he was able to read the scribbles on that man's arm the firs time he saw the tattoo.

THAT BEING SAID, we also know Xie Lian is God awful cook. Let's not judge baby boy too hard, he got it from his mama, and I'm assuming cooking this way could be a means to keeping her close. Especially after his punk ass cousin desecrated her resting place.

What if these two wrongs made a right?

One day Xie Lian realizes he has been name dropping a lot of recipes lately and he wants to keep track of them. So he decides it's high time he start making a recipe card or books. And since he loves his husband so much and wants to ensure he keeps practicing his writing, he suggests Hua Cheng scribe for him.

Nervous about his atrocious writing, he hesitantly agrees and sits down with Xie Lian to write down ingredients and instructions.

Fast forward to a week later. Feng Xin and Mu Qing have arrived just in time for dinner. Much to their dismay Hua Cheng was the one who greeted them so they couldn't run away once he told them "Ah you two....actually perfect timing, Gege made extra."

The two generals looks as though they were being shipped off to war as they waiting for their bowls to be served. "Ah Mu Qing, Feng Xin! I wasn't expecting you two to stop by today! Good thing dinner was prepared. Its a recipe I'vebmade before so, its nothing new." Xie Lian said with a soft smile.

The two generals steeled themselves as they thought back to all the past 'receipes' they have been subjected to in the past.

"You think he heard about our fight yesterday?" Mu Qing whispered.

"He must have...he's punishing us, I know it..." Feng Xin whispered back.

Xie Lian approached the table with a hot pot and placed it in the center. "I apologize in advance, the flavor seems to be a little different." He said softly. He had actually struggled to read the recipe cards Hua Cheng had dutifully wrote out for him.

"Make sure to eat up well good generals." Hua Cheng quipped as he served Xie Lian, himself, and the other two.

Full of reluctance they begin to eat. They suddenly freeze. Xie takes their frozen expressions and worries, "Oh no! I'm sorry it's ba-" "DELICIOUS!" The generals announce in unison, as they down their bowls together.

"Your highness, we thank you for this meal!" Mu Qing speaks between slurps.

"I will find strength in your cooking Your highness!" Feng Xin says as he's helping himself to seconds.

Bonus: Xie Lian ended up making all the recipes the Hua Cheng made recipe cards for, and all of them were absolutely edible. Though he didn't know what he was doing differently, he decided to prepare buns, as a delicious offering to his mother and father then next time he went to visit.

Tgcf as Starbucks drinks.

I tried tbh but i struggled for some so it might not be as accurate 😅

Xie Lian: White hot chocolate -> simple, warm and sweet

Hua cheng: cold brew with vanilla sweet cream -> strong and cold but always sweet for gege

Feng Xin: pumpkin spice -> strong taste and “spicy”

Mu Qing: citrus black tea or something -> sour and bitter but “refreshing”

Qi rong: a mix of tea, milk and coffee with random extras -> weird and bad tastes but funny in a way

Gu Zi: any sweet drink with sweeter extras -> he’s a child no need to elaborate further

Shi Qingxuan: venti matcha Frappuccino with caramel drizzle, whipped cream, vanilla syrup and cookie crumbles on top -> extra and sweet but we still love it

He Xuan: ice with caramel syrup -> not even drink lol, cold hearted mf, sweet (soft) spot for sqx, in debt.

Yin Yu: iced coffee with 6 shots espresso -> tired assistant

Quan Yizhen: sweet milk/vanilla steamer -> simple(minded) “child”-like tastes

Ling Wen: like Yin Yu, iced coffee with 6 shots espresso -> overworked tired employee

Pei Ming: iced coffee no sugar, no milk -> basic adult drink, gives “hot fuckboy” vibes for him idk..

Shi Wudu: a cup of water with no lid -> do i need to say more..

Lord Rain Master: a tall espresso -> doesn’t take money donations so can only afford the cheapest drink (water works too since it’s free)

Jun Wu: cold brew with bland milk foam -> pretty looking idk, basic mature adult vibes?

Heaven Officials Blessing au where everything’s the same but Pei Su calls Pei Ming “Grandpa”

I love Xie Lian at one point had all four calamities inside his tiny hut. Like- imagine if the Heavens Eye guy showed up then. Like- he would have passed out.

Xie Lian holding Starbucks with a trail of ghost children behind him:

Hua Cheng: gege, what’s that?

Xie Lian: a latte.
