Entropy (WANGXIAN FanFic)

11 - Intervention

Zewu Jun managed to convince Wuxian to go with him to his place called Hanshi. He said he was willing to sit with him and Wangji to help them sort out their problems with each other. Wuxian at first did not want to listen and just move on. He was sure that he and Wangji would figure it out on their own. When Zewu Jun told Wuxian how upset Wangji was, to the point of tears, that he wanted to be there to give them guidance in any way they needed. So Wuxian reluctantly followed him to Hanshi.

Wuxian could see similarities to Jingshi when he first stepped inside. As he moved further with the building, he saw Wangji already sitting at the table with tea already set and made. Looking at Wangji's eyes, Wuxian could actually see that they were still a bit puffed up and red from crying. Now Wuxian felt terrible about his outburst. He was just tired of being misunderstood.

Wuxian sighed as he followed Zewu Jun and sat across from Wangji at the table with Zewu Jun in the middle. Now it was quiet. Too quiet that it was starting to become uncomfortable. Zewu Jun could feel not only the sadness in each of the boys, but he could feel the tension. Wuxian just sat looking at the table with his arms folded in front of his chest. Wangji glanced back and forth between his hands on his lap, the tea on the table, his brother, and Wei Ying.

The boys didn't know who was more sorry. Wangji for the words he said that were out of the line and judgmental, that he basically broke a rule was misjudgment as well as yelling which was also prohibited. Then there Wuxian who knew that the two barely knew each other, and even though he was tired of judgement of his character, he knew Wangji would feel bad the moment he said those words, and Wuxian ignored it. He was upset at himself for yelling at him. He never lashed out at someone like that and for it to be Wangji of all people, it hurt him even more.

"I am sorry I lashed out and yelled, Lan Zhan," Wuxian finally had the courage to break the silence and apologize first, "I have never yelled like that before and I am really sorry."

Lan Zhan looked into Wei Ying's silver eyes, "I should be the one to apologize," He told Wei Ying, "I should not have said those things. I guess I was just too caught up and flustered I could not think straight. I should not have said that at all and I am sorry."

"Not that it's an excuse but I feel there is an imbalance of energy here. The Yang energy is so strong that I can't keep the yin energy calm," Wei Ying said. Though it is not an excuse as he said, Wuxian feels as if Cloud Recesses energy has so much pure spiritual energy that the resentful energy has been too harsh on him.

Zewu Jun looked at Wuxian confused, "What do you mean?"

Wuxian immediately knew he messed up. Lan Zhan knew and his grandmother knew, but Zewu Jun did not, "If I answer will you promise not to judge me or tell anyone outside of this room?"

Zewu Jun expelled a protection barrier over Hanshi so nobody to get in and no one can listen to them speak, "I promise you, whatever is said, will stay in this room."

Wuxian sighed and explained, "I am someone who can use spiritual and resentful energy. I do not know when or how old I was when I was able to grasp such harsh cultivation but my grandmother has spent years helping suppress it and manage it. After I got my silver core, it became easier to control."

"You can control resentful energy," Zewu Jun repeated and then spoke again, "how?"

Wuxian held up his flute, "Chenqing, though I would advise others from touching it as it has a habit of lashing out to those who try to touch it other than me...though I am curious why it did not lash out at Lan Zhan when he held it."

Zewu Jun couldn't help but smirk a little, 'so, it is comfortable around Wangji, huh? I am sure that the flute knows that Wangji is important in Wei Gongzi's life.'
