Lmao ikr? I've watched that a criminal amount of times, if they had let him repeat that look especially in the extra episode, maybe waking up next to XFF,  that would have been super satisfying 

Also his subtle hair flick after he ended his sword dance 剑舞 in 18? Like he KNOWS what he's doing to us right?
