lack of colour

born and raised in new york to liliana and roger qinghou. his father is a businessman who founded noble international, china's largest conglomerate, while his mother is a real estate tycoon. money was and never will be an obstacle for arya. his parents planned his entire life ahead of him ever since he was a child.

they were determined for their children to become perfect (because lbr, who else is going to take over the family business?). they moved him to singapore to attend nanyang primary school and then phillips exeter academy. the qinghou's only want the best for their kids. they won't settle for anything less.

he spent most of his childhood with an endless list of tutors, from mandarin lessons to basketball lessons but he wasn't complaining since he enjoyed them all. and he was not allowed to complain anyway. when he was in high school his parents finally let him do whatever he wanted to do so you can imagine!!! how happy he was. he pm had a "rebellious phase" for a bit and discovered the nightlife -- there's nothing he loves more than alcohol.

even though he knows his parents mean well, he never really liked them that much. they always kept their distance with their children. they were there but never really there. liliana and roger qinghou missed an endless list of birthdays and milestones amongst other things. he stopped caring when he was fifteen because what's the point when they were never really going to love you anyway?

life after high school was a breeze. he went to yale and majored in economics. graduated with summa cum laude and as for everything else.. well, he doesn't remember. now he's back in new york to do what he's supposed to do.

let me tell you, arya is 100% psycho. for the most part, he is mr. nice guy but if you cross the line with him he'll probably do anything in his power to destroy you. he will make sure that you can never make a living and because of his family name, he's more than capable of doing so. "i will buy you." - arya qinghou, probably.

he has a very competitive nature and will do anything to win. he's relentless, direct and obstinate. but also genuine, thoughtful and amiable. he's actually pretty approachable -- he won't be rude for you for no reason at all. believe it or not, he has a chill and calm composure. he likes to spend most of his free time with a) friends or b) his dog, momofuku (yes he named it after momofuku milk bar). before he goes out on friday's, he watches how to get away with murder. if you insult the show, he will have a go with you. he also low-key loves taylor swift.
