Lan Yin closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the watery blue of his pupils had faded, replaced by an enchanting blood-red.
He curved his lips into a smile, reached out to pull Yu An into his embrace, and whispered against her ear, "Female Master, long time no see."
Yu An hesitated. "Lan Yin, you..."
"Call me Lan Ying. You may not remember, but I remember the grace of my Female Master's assistance."
Lan Ying chuckled lightly. "That time you drugged Lan Yin in the Imperial City, he was trying to permanently seal me within this body. Thanks to my Female Master's interruption, I had the chance to slowly take it over."
"A drop of kindness should be repaid with a gushing spring. How about I repay my Female Master by giving myself to you?"
"What about Lan Yin?" Yu An paused. "What is your relationship with him?"
'One body, two souls, or a split personality?'
"Why bring him up?" Lan Ying swept her up into his arms. "My Female Master is only allowed to have me in her heart."
