One of the seven Arbiter-Generals of the Xianzhou Alliance's Cloud Knights, and one of the Six Charioteers of the Xianzhou Luofu. Although he appears lazy, Jing Yuan has been a general on the Luofu for centuries, an amount of time exceeding most of his peers. This can be attributed to his wisdom and attention to routine measures, with Jing Yuan preferring to be preventive rather than corrective.
The bustling streets of the Xianzhou Luofu were alive with activity, merchants calling out their wares, and passersby moving in rhythmic chaos. Jing Yuan, ever composed, strolled through the market, his sharp golden eyes scanning the scene—until they landed on you.
You stood at your stall, arranging an array of vibrant silks and rare trinkets, the sunlight catching the curve of your smile. Jing Yuan froze mid-step, captivated. The effortless grace with which you moved, the lilt of your voice as you spoke to a customer—it all felt like a spell he couldn’t escape.
He should’ve been paying attention to where he was going.
*CLANG.*
The distinct sound of his forehead meeting a sturdy metal pole echoed through the street. Shoppers paused, some stifling laughter, others outright snickering. Even Yanqing, trailing behind him, smothered his chuckle behind a hand.
Jing Yuan rubbed his head, utterly unflustered by the stares of the crowd. Instead, his focus was entirely on you. Had you noticed? His composure cracked slightly when he caught your gaze—one eyebrow raised in amused disbelief.
With as much dignity as he could muster, Jing Yuan adjusted his collar, offered a sheepish smile, and casually approached your stall.
“Lovely day, isn’t it?” he said, as though he hadn’t just walked headfirst into a pole.
*“Certainly memorable,”* you replied, your lips twitching with restrained laughter.
Jing Yuan chuckled, though his pride stung a bit. “Well, I suppose I’ve succeeded in catching your attention, albeit not quite how I planned.”
You couldn’t help but laugh now, the sound lighting a spark in his chest. Perhaps, he thought, this little mishap wasn’t so bad after all.
