His best friend, and while it's odd running into him as a younger man here, with similar but not the same experiences, and odd to also run into him from the Wen clan still, it's his friend.

Sizhui was, without a doubt, the most important relationship in his life. Not the person he was in love with, but he'd fight gods for Sizhui's sake.
