Wei Wuxian sat kneeled before his mirror. His heart beating madly in his chest, a growing blush upon his cheeks as he thought of the nearing moment. He couldn't help but smile as he looked up at his shijie, Jiang Yanli.
"Are you alright A-Xian?" She kneeled next to Wei Wuxian.
"Yes, I am. I-I guess I'm a little nervous" He chuckled.
"This is an exciting moment though! One to be proud of!"
"I know I know, and I'm very happy with what's to come, but I can't help but feel anxious as well. Sometimes I wonder if I'm really the one for Lan Zhan. He's perfect."
Jiang Yanli faced her didi, took his hands in hers, and spoke her words fiercely.
"A-Xian listen to me. No matter how anxious you feel at this moment, you will be so full of relief and love that all of those little worries will leave you behind. Just live in the moment now. I know you love Lan Wangji very much so and he loves you as well. I can see that you two are perfect for one another and the way that you care for one another is so deep that whatever happens? You'll be alright. You are perfect for him." She smiled as she finished her words.
Wei Wuxian had no words but to hug his shijie. He felt as though his anxieties have calmed, and he decided to take Jiang Yanli's words to heart. He wanted to live in the present moment. He couldn't wait to get married to his beloved Lan Zhan.
"Thank you" He smiled once he had recentered himself. He let himself look back at the mirror in front of him. Jiang Yanli smiled back at her dear didi and stood from her kneeled position, ready to continue on helping him to finish dressing in his marital robes. When they both finally finished, she stood back to gaze and admire her didi's amazing robing pattern.
Wei Wuxian was anything but hideous. He was absolutely beautiful. His robes draped flawlessly down him in a swaying motion. All the edges perfectly matched with a golden yellow color and a bit above were these beautiful yellow-beige flowers blooming from the bottom of his robes, to his sleeves. The red so bright and vibrant that it complimented his features to a tee. His long luscious black hair was in its normal ponytail with a red, golden laced, ribbon tied to it; the bangs he had, fell graciously in front of him. The veil that sat upon his head gently graced along his back and until the top of his forehead. It was also laced with golden edges.
"How do I look?" He asked standing, facing his shijie.
"You look stunning! Lan Wangji would be amazed, my dear didi." She looked at him with content eyes. Jiang Yanli was proud of her didi to be getting married. After everything that the couple had been through, she knew this was a momentous occasion. One to be celebrated in its entirety.
Wei Wuxian turned to look back at the mirror once again, standing this time. He didn't know what to make of the stunning silk robing. He felt his heart pounding as he really took in what was about to happen. He smiled so brightly; relief had washed upon him. And then crying.
"A-Xian...are you okay? What's wrong?" Jiang Yanli asked, face full of worry.
"I'm just so happy. I can't control myself...I just needed to cry."
His shijie smiled back at him. She hugged him tightly. They both stayed like this for a few minutes before finally pulling away. She cupped her didi's face and gave him a reassuring smile.
"I hope only the best for you today and always." She wiped the tears from his face.
"Thank you for being here...I really needed this."
"Of course A-Xian. However, it's best we get going, we don't want to leave your fiance waiting."
"Right, of course." He took a deep breath in through his nose, and released from his mouth. He looked once more at himself in the mirror. He was ready.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
In another room of the Cloud Recesses, the Jingshi, Lan Wangji stood tall next to his gege, Lan Xichen. He knew that Lan Wangji was absolutely full of happiness, though it didn't show on his face, however, Lan Xichen had always been able to read his didi's face like an open book.
"You seem happy."
"I am. Very much."
"That's quite the relief, Lan Zhan. Are you nervous?" Lan Xichen spoke with a small smile.
"Of course I am, but isn't that normal?" Lan Wangji looked over to his gege.
"It is, but you seem especially nervous. Is this because of tonight's occasion?" He said with a small smirk.
"Lan Huan! I- ugh."
"Haha. Don't worry, things will be alright with you two. You worry too much didi."
Lan Wangji turned away with a blush creeping on his face. He took a breath and then faced back at his gege. He needed to compose himself. Lan Xichen smiled again, he was happy for his didi to finally marry his beloved Wei Wuxian. It has been years of course. He knew the two would finally find each other.
His didi's robes were beautiful as well. It held much of a resemblance to Wei Wuxian's robing with some differences. Lan Wangji's robes were fully red with the golden laced edges, but they did not hold yellow-beige flowers. Instead, they held a golden band around the sleeves and bottom of the robes. The back of his robing having a gorgeous yellow design of the sun. His hair, long in length, also fell along his back, while some were held in a bun above with a red tie and golden hairpin. And lastly, his white headband was replaced with a red one of the same design, but with a blue gem hanging from the mid of his forehead.
"Are you ready?" Lan Xichen spoke
"Yes." Lan Wangji said with great certainty. He couldn't wait to marry his darling Wei Wuxian.
"We shouldn't keep them waiting then. Come, come."
"Thank you Lan Huan."
"If it means to see you as joyous as you are with the one you love, then anything for you Lan Zhan"
Lan Wangji had his normal, expressionless face upon him, with a bit of a blush. His brother always knew what he was thinking and feeling though he never showed it.
They both walked together to where the beginning of the aisle took place. Lan Xichen nodded at his brother and stood back to where the other guests stood. Those from the Lan Clan, Jin Clan, and Jiang Clan were there.
Now they were all waiting on Wei Wuxian.
