Wei Xinyi spent a few more moments with Jin Xuanyu before a servant came to escort him to his quarters. The next day was kind of a holiday for them. The night hunt was scheduled the day after. Her thoughts drifted back to that of the Jiang siblings and Wei Wuxian. In the fanfiction, Wei Xinyi was just an OC character and hence, she wasn't close to her own twin and instead betrayed him later. In fact, Wei Wuxian was more of a sibling with Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yanli.
She had changed things so much now...... But can she change this as well? Can she change how deep their bonds go? But,she doesn't have anyone except him....not in this world nor in hers. How could she share her brother? She knew Lan Wangji was a different case. They were soulmates. But why should she share HER brother with the Jiang siblings? Wei Xinyi unconsciously clenched her sword so right that her knuckles turned white.
She was jealous. And insecure.
______________________________________________________________
The next day Wei Xinyi woke up from a bad sleep. Her worries had only worsened after Wei Wuxian talked to her about Jiang Yanli's soup and Jiang Cheng's grumpy love. She schooled her expression into nothing and if Wei Wuxian noticed something wrong with her he didn't call out her for it.
However, apparently things weren't so simple! Early next morning a knock at the door caught her attention. She stopped the Sect work she was busy completing,put down her brush and went to open the door.
Again? Why can't you leave us alone? Wei Xinyi's inner turmoil didn't let her affect her expressions.
"Young Master Jiang, Young Lady Jiang .....and Second Young Master Nie?" This was the first time for her seeing Nie Huaisang up close.
"Young Lady Wei. The rumours about your beauty was true then. Nie Huaisang greets you" Nie Huaisang flatteringly held his fan in front of his face as he smiled at her.
"You are flattering me, Second Young Master Nie. Please come inside." Wei Xinyi allowed the guests to enter as she hurriedly cleared the table before pouring them fresh tea.
"A-Xian....is he not awake yet?" Jiang Yanli tentatively asked as she kept the pot she has been holding down.
"Yes! Yes! I am especially here to meet Jiang-Xiong's rumoured buddy.... apparently they are as close as brothers" Nie Huaisang excitedly fluttered his fan.
"Nie Huaisang do you have to open your mouth?" Jiang Cheng grumbled yet secretly smiled.
Wei Xinyi stiffened with each passing second. Some things..... She cannot change. She wonders how Lan Wangji would react to this later. Would be be as jealous as her? Or would he be happy for him?
"Shijie????" Wei Wuxian smiled brightly at the guests as he settled down beside them.
"Nie-Xiong, long time!" He cheerfully greeted his friend he had met twice during his stay at Lotus Pier.
"Woah,Wei-Xiong, you and your Meimei look so similar! Are you twins ???" Nie Huaisang quipped.
"We are! We are! I am just older by 3 minutes. So I tease her by calling her my Meimei! Hehehe!!" Wei Wuxian grinned.
"A-Xian did you have breakfast? I made you your favourite soup today." Jiang Yanli affectionately called out as Wei Wuxian excitedly asked for it.
Wei Xinyi felt like an intruder sitting at the table. Wei Wuxian definitely liked Jiang Yanli more. No matter how much she tries she cannot be his Shijie for him. Her expression hardened. When it comes to choose,just who will Wei Wuxian choose then?
"Young Lady Wei,can I call you A-Xin? You may call me Shijie as A-Xian does. Would you like some soup?" Jiang Yanli was nothing but kind. She was her favourite character after the protagonists. Yet, when you become a part of their lives, your emotions can't help but change.
"You may call me as you wish Young Lady Jiang. But it would be inappropriate for me to call you as such when our Sects are not affiliated." Wei Xinyi spoke the truth after all. Her brother was untamed, frivolous but,how could she be the same? No one can be Wei Wuxian after all!
The silence was really tense at the table. Jiang Yanli looked shocked. Nie Huaisang worriedly glanced between them. Jiang Cheng glared at Wei Xinyi. However, Wei Xinyi never expected what came next.
"Wei Xinyi! Is that a way to speak to Shijie? She was just trying to be familiar with you."
For the first time Wei Wuxian had used her full name to address her. Wei Xinyi's gaze hardened. After everything,she was still not enough!!
"Wei Wuxian! You don't tell me what to do. It is only proper to address the Young Lady of another Sect as such. Why should I call her my Shijie when she is clearly not?"
There was only one big flaw about Lu Xinyi! She was hot tempered. Wei Xinyi or not she couldn't tolerate people raising their voice against her. Wei Wuxian's eyes widened in surprise as he stared at his sister in confusion.
Finally Jiang Yanli placed a placating hand on Wei Wuxian's arm, "It's okay A-Xian, I am sure A-....umm Young Lady Wei didn't mean anything by it."
Before they could speak more,a bright voice came through the open door and so did a small figure.
"Xinyi-Jiejie! Xiao-Xuan came to visit Jiejie!!" Jin Xuanyu ran straight to Xinyi tackling her in a hug. For a moment Wei Xinyi was frozen shocked before she hugged the child back. She needed the distraction right now!
The other occupants were confused seeing the back of a child very obviously dressed in the Jin Sect's colours hugging Wei Xinyi.
"Xiao-Xuan why are you here!? Did you sneak out?"Wei Xinyi teased him before he settled down on her lap.
"Meimei! Why does he look like A-Xian??" Wei Wuxian dramatically wailed staring at the small boy in astonishing horror.
"Hi Gege! Are you my Gege? We look so sammmmeee??" Jin Xuanyu apparently had a loud voice.
"Wei Wuxian just how many siblings do you have??" Jiang Cheng gaped at the child.
"This.... is this the rumoured Third Young Master Jin perhaps?" Nie Huaisang guessed.
" He is. I met him yesterday in the peony garden." Wei Xinyi nodded as Xuanyu ate her candy.
Jiang Yanli glanced at her with a strange expression. Wei Wuxian continued studying her and Xuanyu closely and pouted.
"No wonder you yelled at me today! You got a replacement for me, right there!" Wei Wuxian accused her with a pout.
Wei Xinyi was supposed to laugh at the joke. But a lot was going her in a mind.
"Wei Wuxian, didn't you do it first?" She knowingly glanced at Jiang Yanli and Jiang Cheng before settling her expression into nothing.
"Please excuse us." She bowed before holding out her hand for Jin Xuanyu.
"Xiao-Xuan I will escort you back."

Wei Wuxian glanced at her back as she quietly went out.
"Wei Wuxian what nonsense is she telling? Doesn't she know that we will become sworn brothers someday? What's wrong with you calling A-Jie, Shijie?" Jiang Cheng questioned.
Oh. He had forgotten. Hadn't he?
Wei Wuxian how could you yell at your own Meimei?
Stupid. Stupid.
That day Wei Xinyi didn't return to her quarters even if the Jiang siblings and Nie Huaisang went back in the late evening. So Wei Wuxian went out to look for her.
