WuXie 吴邪 & Zhang Qiling 张起灵 || I’ll be your shield

When I heard this song I knew I had to use it for WuXie & Zhang Qiling. It is of WuXie loving his brother to the point he would do anything to keep him alive, even if it meant dying. But Zhang Qiling feels the same so WuXie clearly is being a bit much. But it’s a story with both POVs. After I made this I read Long Ge’s interview with upcoming L’Officiel magazine & he speaks of WuXie’s biggest fear is Xiao Ge dying, and of the emotions behind the hallucinations scene. What are the chances, see how brilliant of an actor they both are? That scene of XiaoGe dying sticks with me so much because of WuXie’s reaction - so different when PangZi died. WuXie is desperate, lost, and on the verge of madness through his grief of losing Zhang Qiling. That scene made me realize how much I love these two characters, the look in WuXie’s eyes and Zhang Qiling smiling before he dies “that’s it’s okay” - masterpiece from both of y’all. The coincidence is really bizarre but that’s the beauty of life. Drama name: Reu
