Wen Kexing Poetry Episode 2 - I’ll prepare a pot of good wine and place it among the flowers.  I’ll drink by myself, with no relative or friends in sight.”

In Episode 2, Wen Kexing invites Zhou ZIshu to drink with him on board his boat (which fails spectacularly lmao).  In his invitation, he cites this poem - 花间一壶酒，独酌无相亲 (Huā jiān yī hú jiǔ, dúzhuó wū xiāngqīn).

This arises from the Tang poem to “Drink Under the Moon”.  Written by Li Bai, the poem depicts the cold and lonely scene, where the author drinks alone under the moonlight.  The author is depressed and he speaks to the moon, pouring out his sorrows while drinking wine.  This poem is written in an interesting way as on the surface, the poet looks as though he’s enjoying himself, but deep within he is lonely and sorrowful. 

On the surface, it does look as though wkx is merely flirting with zzs.  However, I’m wondering if this is a possible foreshadowing of wkx’s character (ie. on the surface he looks well and he’s constantly surrounded with people. whereas on the inside ..  KNIVES)

Ye Baiyi saves Xie Wang for trolling and giggles, but things turn out to be more complicated...

So, it’[s like “Heidi” where everyone are jerks or “Taming of the shrew”... where everyone are jerks.

The funny thing is, that the sex scene in this text is loosely based on one of the real taoistic sex rituals. The real thing is way more complicated and strange, of course, but I like its solemn and serious tone, which suits Baiyi very much.
