"Are you sure it's him ?"
"A soul always remembers his soulmate. Last time he failed his promise to spend entirely with me and I failed my promise to protect him . My wait has come to an
end . And I can fulfill my promise . "
" But he doesn't reme...
"So much for a ... stranger?" the words sliped out before he could stop .
" I told you about myself . You can tell me about yourself , so we won't be strangers " Wei Wuxian said looking directly at other's eyes .
" My father was a healer and my mother was a cultivator . Unfortunately my parents were burnt in a house fire . Somehow I was saved. My neighbors saved me and raised me when I was 5. They had an older son and we got along well . But few year they passed away in a disease . I haven't seen my brother for a year . I tried looking for him but probably he doesn't want to meet me . so yeah... "
Wei Wuxian stood dumbfounded in silence as so much sensitive information just got thrown at him . But he found his heart cry in pain that he knew wasn't his own . His ever-so-chatting mouth sealed shut .

Xie Yun blinked looking at the wall , as he also shocked himself. He just had breakfast and definitely no alcohol was in it, then why did he spill his pain out to a stranger? It was too random , he never shared his personal information with someone but it also felt good to let go . Like a tragic, beautiful and peaceful escape.
Suddenly he was pulled into a full arm hug . He remained stiff for a moment but then slowly returned to hug . He feels that stupid tender feeling return, poking away at the edges of his heart.
Both didn't say anything to make the air awkward . Xie Yun silently returned to his bed and pretended to fall asleep . While Wei Ying went outside after cleaning the outside . And the day came to an end before they thought . It was like time running faster when they are together
The next day they both knew that Xie Yun was healthy enough to leave on his own but both kept stubbornly quite . Taking extra time to do simple work while glancing each other.
After failing to find his brother , a void was left empty in his heart . But in this few day Wei Wuxian managed to carve out his way and unknowingly fill the void . The thought of leaving already made his heart ache allover again . Then suddenly
" Tonight is lantern festival . Will you go out will me ?" Wei Wuxian asked , trying to hide his nervousness . He practiced it in his mind many times , he hopes it came out like that .
First Xie Yun thought he heard wrong, just his imagination to comfort him but then he turned and saw the other's face and knew he just got asked out . He smiled freely and replied
"Yes. Of course "
And oh as if Wuxian already didn't realise , that gorgeous smile shoot an arrow across his heart. He resisted the urge to smooth his chest . He also resisted to do other things .
By the time they went out side , it was evening already . Walking across the bridge is fairly straightforward. One foot in front of the other, another foot in front of another, repeat repeat repeat . Somehow that was weirdly mesmerizing . Wei Wuxian looks at the other way as his hand reaches to grab latter's hand and pull him closer.
