jin guangyao’s death scene in the novel reads all like “he led lan xichen to nie mingjue’s coffin so they could die together and then, at the last second, he changed his mind and pushed lan xichen away”

and I call bullshit

that little snake didn’t change his mind

he led him there on purpose. he made it look like he wanted lan xichen to die with him on purpose, and he pushed him out of the way on purpose.

think about it, who, aside from lan wangji knows lan xichen the best? lan xichen has been manipulated by jin guangyao for so long, that he knew exactly where to strike to break lan xichen once and for all  

this is why he reminded lan xichen of all the times jin guangyao had helped him, had helped his clan, had essentially saved his life. all jin guangyao is doing in that last scene is adding one more life debt to the burden of gratitude lan xichen is already carrying, because he knew that the honorable, pure, and infinitely forgiving zewu-jun would literally shatter under the strain

that little fucker was like, “I’ve given you everything including your life, and you killed me, so live with that if you can”

people talk about jin guangyao‘s last moments as if he redeemed himself by saving lan xichen from a situation that he put him in in the first place

and that’s bullshit, because he knows, and we know, that lan xichen would have preferred to die rather than live with the truth

in the end, jin guangyao is no different than xue yang. they would both rather utterly destroy the person they love, then admit that they’re not worthy of being loved by them
