When Wei Xinyi returned back with her cousin in tow carrying the bitter tea the Lans favoured, the room was doused in silence. Lan Xichen was playing his Xiao, Liebing; probably a healing song of the Lans.
She knocked at the door and entered the room to prepare the tea. On the bed Lan Wangji was leaning against Wei Wuxian, who kept a hand on Lan Wangji's back in support. Madam Lan looked at them happily, while Qingheng-Jun closed his eyes in meditation, pretending he didn't see the blatant display of affection.
"A-Ying! Are you going to lounge here all day? Let Hanguang-Jun breathe....and go do your work," she muttered under her breath.
"My dear Meimei! I have finished everything for the week! What work? Just let me accompany my Baobei," he said happily.
Lan Xichen coughed awkwardly hiding a smile as Qingheng-Jun opened his eyes to glare at Wei Wuxian. Lan Wangji's ears turned red at Wei Wuxian's antics but he didn't say anything.
"Finished...? Uhh? Ok," Well, it was a pleasant surprise for Wei Xinyi.
"Biao-Ge, I am staying here for a week ok? I have a lot of things to discuss with you about my new talismans," Jin Xuanyu said, not hiding his adoration.
Wei Wuxian grinned happily.
"Of course, A-Yu, this is your home. Stay as much as you like. I say....you just stay with us here away from Koi Tower...." Wei Wuxian winked mischievously.
"Wei Wuxian! He is the Jin Sect Heir. Try not to wage any kind of war between Sects any time soon, will you?" Wei Xinyi hissed as her brother laughed.
Finally remembering her guests she took it upon herself to lead them to their rooms.
"Zewu-Jun, this is your room. If you need anything, please call for me or A-Yu," she said dryly.
Lan Xichen hesitated as if he wanted to say something.
"What? Anything to say?" She asked.
"Two weeks... Two weeks later is my ascension ceremony. Wangji will be needed there. Will.... Will you come?" He asked, in a single breath.
Right. She remembered the invitation from the Lan Sect that came a few days ago.
To be honest, it was her right and duty as the future Sect Leader's wife to stand beside him on such an important day. But, was she really his wife?
His family and Sect don't think so.
Lan Xichen himself is in love with another man!
They have slept once, which she doesn't remember.
And she fought against his Sect disciples.
Wei Xinyi felt a headache thinking about the recent fight between her maiden sect and her in-laws.
"Of course I will. Can't have my dear husband running to someone else for comfort!" She said, smiling sarcastically.
Lan Xichen's eyes dimmed.
"Do you hate me?" He asked quietly.
"Huh?" Wei Xinyi was stunned.
"Do you hate me for not standing by Wangji?" He asked.
"Well... He didn't retaliate either. You Lans are too much in love with your rules, I suppose," she said, snorting.
Lan Xichen was silent before there were two hands grabbing her shoulders tightly.
"Wei Xinyi, will you come back with me?" He asked desperately. In the slightly dark room, Wei Xinyi couldn't see Lan Xichen properly, but she heard the plea in his voice.
