I just...really like looking at him (In all seriousness though, I love his character so much. I can't hate him because yes, he's done many despicable things (ik people loathe what he did to Hua Cheng), yes, I know his own trauma and neglect don't justify them. But his hurt, the way he copes is so intriguing, and when his humanity does shine through (especially with Gu Zi), it's so bittersweet. One of the many reasons I teared up on Book 4, if you know what I mean. He's more than Hualian's antagonist, he's more than the mad cousin calamity, he's his own person, and a really interesting one I find at that.
