Ways to carry your partner (one of these is actually a very bad example (don't follow it kids))

consider: xie lian being like “we need friends that are also couples!” and hua cheng agreeing because “ofc gege” but hua cheng doesn’t really like anybody so he’s just picks the two people he knows (hx and yy) and is like “they each have their own dumpster fire soap opera going on. i need to make sure they end up with their partners so gege can have dinner parties like he wants” but post canon hx and yy are both like “why are we still here? just to suffer?” and end up finding companionship with each other in that and so hua cheng notices them spending more and more time together while both doing parkour to not be seen ever by sqx and qyz and… wait. wait no. he doesn’t like where he can see this going. why does this feel weirdly romantic?? you two can’t fall in love! from hua cheng’s perspective you can only have one true love and you two already have obsessions with other people so this is not allowed! and not once does he consider if hx and yy DID get together, they could still be their friends who are also a couple, because he already planned this out and it! does! not! fit! with! his! fantasy! and so just like that hua cheng becomes a very aggressive beefleaf and quanyin shipper
