Updated my strawpage, but just to be clear, I love all xianle quartet equally and I will block people for hating on any of them. Love hualian, love fengqing.
I think it’s funnier when an author drops something EXTREMELY american in a non-american setting. Like what do you mean wei wuxian took an uber to the hospital so he wouldn’t be charged for the ambulance ride. In China.
