After Love, Animals Hurt by Xiao Zhan

一只哀伤的猫　倚著铁窗舔著打架后的伤 一张白色床单　皱成一团不知所云的凌乱

A wounded cat, leaning on the steeled window, licking its wounds after a fight A white bedsheet, wrinkled into an unknown mess 谁的菸头　尽管嚣张　扩散理不乱还乱的贪婪 谁撑的伞　一点温暖　究竟是天堂还是苦难

Whose cigarette butt, carelessly arrogant, spreading chaotic greed Whose umbrella, a little bit of warmth, is it heaven or suffering 在悬崖的顶端　时间总是过得比时钟还慢 一旦汗被风干　包著皮肤一层隐形的惆怅

At the edge of a cliff, time is always slower than the clock Just as wind dries up sweat, skin wrapped inside an invisible layer of melancholy  谁的情感　无法张扬　谁在陌生的房故作勇敢 谁在夜晚　害怕腐烂　任呼吸突然变得野蛮

Whose feelings, unable to be released, who is pretending to be brave in an unfamiliar room Who is the one, in the night, scared of rotting, suddenly breathing wildly

先爱吧　霸占一副肩膀　挡掉一点遗憾 先爱吧　啃噬一双翅膀　多熬过一季黑暗 先爱吧　动物不都这样　一旦欲求不满 先爱吧　之后感伤　之后再算　之后感伤　之后再算

Let’s love first, occupying a pair of shoulders, hiding a bit of regret Let’s love first, biting a pair of wings, to get through a season of darkness Let’s love first, aren’t animals all like this, if lust unsatisfied Let’s love first, then get hurt, then settle the score, then get hurt, then settle the score 是要一点胆量　还是真的要对生活感到烦 天台望下的窗　又有那扇抱着满足入梦乡

Do I need a bit of courage, or do I have to feel bothered by life Peering down at the window from the platform, there are ones that carry satisfaction in their arms into dreamland 谁的情感　无法张扬　谁在陌生的房故作勇敢 谁在夜晚　害怕腐烂　任呼吸突然变得野蛮

From a fellow Peter Pan ("me") on weibo during his early days as an emerging idol in x-fire in 2016:

2016/03/03

One day I got the chance to ask Xiao Zhan for a To autograph.

Me: XZ, can you do a To autograph for me?

He didn't know how to do it.

Me: You just have to write To XX, and then sign your name.

Then he hesitated for a really long time, really really long time...

Zhan: Ah? How do you write that?

And finally wrote this

Zhan: Is it this "To"?

Me: ...

(This character is pronounced like "to" in Chinese, and means basically something that protrudes outwards)

After explaining to him how to write it properly, he signed flourishly:

I'll sign you a "have money!"

(His signature resembles the words "have money" in Chinese)

"Fate pushed you onto this path, so keep walking resolutely. Because people who have walked down this path before met a lot of the same problems too. And as you keep walking back and forth this road, you will meet these same problems."
