Yesterday there was a small event on lofter to celebrate, and the result is that we got more beautiful FW fanarts!! Here’s one for our lovely Gu Xiang, one for her and Weining, Zhou Zishu, Wen Kexing, more Wen Kexing (the two fanarts below it are from Imperfections, which you can read here), and finally some for our main couple 😊 For fanworks of other Priest novels, you can check out the rest of this tag and this tag.
Chapter 28. Monk Gu
Wen Kexing gave her a cold look, voice venomous, “What makes you think you can interfere with my business?”
His tone was so unusually cruel that it took Gu Xiang by surprise; her eyes widened and she jumped down from the ceiling. She started following Wen Kexing since she was little, and she knew that while he took important matters very seriously, it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t allow some joking around. Gu Xiang bantering with him was a frequent practice and he never showed any disapproval, so she didn’t understand what this was about.
Gu Xiang examined him warily, voice soft, “Master, this…”
Wen Kexing fell silent, then inhaled after a good while, still feeling incredibly irritated. He casually leaned on the window to enjoy the chilly wind and said to Gu Xiang in a bland voice, “Say, according to you apparently I’m not at all interested in women, can only bed handsome men and harm those who don’t look that good? Can’t I have a friend or two just to talk to?”
He didn’t intend to scare Gu Xiang, but the girl had no idea what he wanted from her so she only became terrified. She stammered, “Yes, Master, I was wrong.”
Whatever Wen Kexing was about to say was swallowed once he saw Gu Xiang’s lost look. Talking to her was such a chore since they weren’t on the same wavelength. In some ways, he felt an accumulating amount of sadness at himself; these days, the lot he was surrounded with was either scared of him or thought that he was a stubborn madman. Not many would have sat with him by the fire like that, listened to him singing off-key like that, talked about old stories that only he could understand like that.
He suddenly asked, “Ah-Xiang, do you think I’m crazy?”
Gu Xiang was stunned, and looked at him hesitantly. Seeing the dull calmness on his face without any trace of anger, she nervously nodded. Wen Kexing turned away and scoffed.
After some thinking, Gu Xiang added, “I’m following you even if you are.”
“And why do you want to follow a madman?”
