Hong Kong and Taiwan Heavy smut--but please, try for a little plot--maybe for them to be talking about China (since Taiwan hates him, and HK is a bit dependent of him) and it kind of spins out from there? Anon needs more of this pairing.

She has never been to Arthur’s house before. Since she took up her brother’s seat on the Security Council, the three allies-Arthur, Francis, and Alfred-have tentatively welcomed her into their intimate circle. Still, there is still a sense of staleness, of distrust, between them, and it weighs heavily upon her. Of course, there is always the unspoken supposition that she is merely a temporary fix, a patch on a problem they don’t have the energy to deal with. But she tries, as much as she can, not to think of that, because there is no point. She knows where those thoughts would lead, and she needs no further cause to be miserable

He braces his hands against his shoulders-he’s so big and strong, now, that the contact sends a jolt through Xue as he does so-and pushes her away, as though to get a clearer look of her

They fall into an easy routine, after that. Every time the Security Council meets, Arthur brings Wen along. He waits for Xue’s signal, and then the two of them sneak away, finding an empty hotel room or a uninhabited couch somewhere to enjoy a few stolen minutes alone. He’s not allowed to go anywhere without Arthur’s permission, at first, but as the years roll by-they seem like days to immortals-his freedom grows closer and closer, and he travels, bringing her flowers and staying for tea

→ I chose Taiwan's name to be "Xue" and Hong Kong's to be "Wen." The "Yen" they mention in the beginning is Vietnam. → The first scene takes place in about the 1960's; after the Chinese Civil War and during Britain's control of Hong Kong. → The second scene refers to 1971, when China's seat on the Security Council reverted to the People's Republic. → The last scene takes place in 1997, when Hong Kong was given back to China after fifty years.

I really liked the diachronic structure you chose! It's not what one thinks of first when reading the prompt, but it works well. A note: Chinese titles go after the names, so it would be "Yen Jiejie", not "Jiejie Yen".

Bonus: Taiwan's name isn't Meimei. Please.
