littlesmartart:LEVERAGE AU (…sort of) when Jin Guangshan deliberately sets up Meng Yao to take the fall for his latest… business indiscretion, he nearly winds up going to jail for it, and it is the final straw for Meng Yao, who realises that his father is never going to care about him, and is never going to face justice inside the legal system. he puts together a plan to bring his father down, and turns to his friend Huaisang for help putting together a team to execute it. Huaisang brings himself - a master hacker and digital forger who could be an incredible grifter if he could be persuaded to leave the (relative) safety and comfort of his van - his older brother Mingjue - who left spec ops to come home and raise him when their father died, and who has a passion for cooking and a moral compass all the more rigid for the guilt over what he did in his years in the forces - and his college buddy Jiang Cheng - a prickly young man whose older siblings married rich, leaving him to inherit the secretly failing family business and a whole heap of abandonment issues, both of which he, naturally, completely refuses to talk to his siblings about. to finish the team, Meng Yao asks Lan Xichen to join them - as the heir of the Lan family, he has spent his whole life creating perfect personas and honing his people-reading skills to make himself more diplomatic and charming, so as long as he has his character pre-planned, he makes a surprisingly good grifter… and whatever he can’t bring himself to lie about, his handsome face is able to smooth over. Xichen feels like he ought to have moral quandaries about how, ah, less-than-legal this plan is, but he’s so relieved that Meng Yao has finally actually asked for help for something that he’s able to set them aside, and besides… Jin Guangshan really does kind of deserve it. the rich and powerful, they take what they want, and now this team are going to steal it back. you could say that they’re looking for… “leverage”…(see under the cut for their dossiers) Keep reading -- source link
