Summer memoir (YiZhan FF)

Nine

"Yibo, it's amazing right? " Zhan asked then he sat down beside Yibo who is playing a zither. They were in Lan Zhan's bedroom and enjoying the time for themselves. Yibo is enjoying his newly found hobby, playing a song Lan Wangji created for Wei Wuxian.

"What is? " Yibo asked while focusing on playing.

"Everything that happened ever since we got here, it's chaotic yes, but it's also amazing.. look how we got double identities now, and now i understand who we really are. " Zhan explained.

Yibo stopped playing and looked at Zhan " but we must not forget, this isn't our time ZhanZhan, we belong to the present and they belong to the past, technically, we are reincarnated but the question is, why are we both here? What do we have to do? Do we have a mission to fullfil or what? "

"I agree, if only we could remember what happened inside that cave, our memories seem to be altered but it felt like it's only an illusion. " Zhan said, he tried to remember the night they went to the cave and how they got here, but somehow, the memories they have doesn't match at all, how can they travel back to the past just by chatting and sleeping inside the cave while waiting for the rain to stop? It doesn't make sense.

"I have an idea. "

Zhan looked at Yibo questioningly. "What? "

" Why don't we both travel like what Lan Zhan and Wei Ying usually does? That way, we might find some clues "

"Yeah, that's Great! Do you think we have to sneak out this time? You surely remember when we both got back so late from a night hunt and your uncle scolded us, not allowing us to leave cloud recesses for almost a year because he thought we does something lewd, right?" Zhan said while laughing, remembering something from Wei Ying's memory.

Yibo smiled as he remembered that too.

"If we want to start immediately, we have to let my brother know first. "

(AN: if you're confused, I decided not to write it but Xichen and Yibo agreed to call themselves brothers since Yibo got Lan Zhan's memories. My mind is chaotic I'm sorry TT^TT)

"Okay, I'm coming with you. "

And so, both of them went to visit Xichen, walking hand in hand, Zhan acted like he was trying to flirt with Yibo while Yibo was just walking calmly, gazing at Zhan who looks ethereal in his eyes. Seems like he doesn't see anyone but Zhan, everything is a blur except for Zhan. Gazes from different people follow them because there are a lot of disciples watching their move.

Zhan clung onto Yibo's arm and leaned towards Yibo's ear before whispering "acting is so tiring, good thing this will be our last day here in clouds recesses. "

"Mn. " Yibo replied.

When they reached Xichen's room, the latter welcomed them and offered some tea.

They both accepted his offer and sat down.

"We want to tell you something Zewu Jun, Yibo  and i decided to travel around. We thought we might get some clues of what we had to do here so we can both go back to the present. " Zhan said immediately after they sat down, with one foot resting at the chair and his elbow laid on top of the table while his forefinger brushed his nose. Xichen wasn't even able to pour tea on their cups first.

"Oh, that's great, i was going to suggest that to you but you said it first. I also thought that might be a great idea. "

Zhan Nodded. "We just want to let you know since you've helped us so much. "

" So when do you plan on leaving? "

"As soon as possible. " Yibo answered.

"I suggest, you both go with the Juniors since they're going to a night hunt with Wen Ning. "
