"Gege, why are you with Lan WangJi?"

Wei WuXian stood up abruptly and rushed to Xiao XingChen. Wei WuXian took A-Qing away from the baby carrier.

"Oh, this gentleman offered me some helps to bring my bags. Is he your friend?"

"... Ah, yes. He's my schoolmate."

Wei WuXian scratched his cheek. He took a glance at Lan WangJi and bowed a little. He felt uneasy.

Lan WangJi bowed back and reached his hand to Xiao XingChen.

"I haven't introduced myself. My name is Lan WangJi."

"Ah, my name's XingChen. I'm A-Ying's family. Thank you for your help."

XingChen reached out his hand and Lan WangJi shook it.

"It's okay. I was just on my way home when I saw Wei Ying's part... I mean, family... carrying heavy bags while holding a baby."

"Oh, you know me before?"

"Ah, gege. He's the one who helped me to bring you to hospital."

Wei WuXian chimed in.

"Oh, my! So, you're my savior! Thank you so much! I heard from A-Ying that someone kind was willing to take me to hospital without asking for compensation. You have my thanks."

XingChen shook Lan WangJi's hand once again, a little bit harder now, then smiled brightly towards him.

"You're really a kind person. I'm glad A-Ying has a good friend like you."

"..."

'Friend, huh?'

Wei WuXian held back his thought and stared at Lan WangJi.

Lan WangJi just nodded his head. He smiled bashfully. The room went silent for a short moment, when Jin GuangYao suddenly came out.

"Huh? We have another guest? XingChen?"

"A-Yao, I'm here."

XingChen chuckled when he saw GuangYao beamed with a big smile when he saw A-Qing.

"Aaah! Little Qing, how cute!"

He bombarded her with kisses.

"And this gentleman is?"

His gaze quickly turned into Lan WangJi. He checked on Lan Wangji's appearance from head to toes. His eyes sparkled and a big smirk was formed on his thin lips.

He elbowed XingChen's side.

"... Are you cheating on Wei Ying, Xing? Your new lover?"

Twitch.

Wei WuXian's lips twitched hearing the question from GuangYao. He frowned without any reason.

"He's not!"

XingChen blushed and pulled his hand from Lan WangJi's. Jin GuangYao laughed. He loved to tease this single father.

"Ahahahaha! You don't have to hide it from me. Isn't it good if A-Qing has-"
"He's my friend, boss."

Wei WuXian cut him. He didn't like this thought of Lan WangJi was close to XingChen. He didn't know the reason, but he just hated it.

"His name is Lan WangJi."

"... Lan?"

GuangYao's eyes a little widened, showing his surprised expression.

"... Are you by chance Lan Huan's brother?"
