The night wind swept by. Lan Xichen's hair and forehead ribbon were already somewhat disheveled. However, the GusuLan Sect's sect leader, who had always regarded appearance highly, didn't pay any attention to them.
He only put down Liebing after the song had finished, "Music is forbidden at night in the Cloud Recesses. Today I have gone many times too far. Excuse me, Young Master Wei."
Wei Wuxian, "How so? Zewu Jun, have you forgotten that the person standing in front of you is the person who has broken the most rules..."
...
"How are you still hanging around Cloud Recesses after breaking so many?" Jingyi asked.
"Because of you and your brother and A-Die," Wei Wuxian said, "you are actually close to my record too. You've broken quite a few, Jingyi."
Jingyi sank into his seat, "you win."
Wei Wuxian laughed.
...
Lan Xichen smiled, "The GusuLan Sect had never revealed to the outside Wangji and my pasts. I should not have told you. Tonight was my sudden urge to unburden myself, a spur of the moment."
Wei Wuxian, "I'm not the kind of person who talks too much. Don't worry, Zewu Jun."
...
Everyone looked at Wei Wuxian, "not a person who talks too much?" Jiang Cheng asked playfully.
"You shut up!" Wei Wuxian told him.
"You are the most talkative person we know," Wen Qing stated.
"I meant that my lips were sealed. I wouldn't just go around telling something so personal," Wei Wuxian explained.
"Well, now we know that you know," Wen Qing said.
"Not my fault," Wei Wuxian told her.
"I know, I just like to make you uncomfortable sometimes...it's fun," Wen Qing said.
Wei Wuxian huffed and decided to ignore her for now.
...
Lan Xichen, "Regardless, I would assume that Wangji would not hide anything from you anyways."
"Zewu Jun, since you are still here, and Hanguang Jun isn't at the moment, I hope to inquire about something," Wei Wuxian said.
"Please, go ahead, Young Master Wei," Lan Xichen told him.
"The Whip scars on Lan Zhan's back?"
"You don't know?" He asked.
"I wanted to ask, but he won't speak about it," Wei Wuxian said.
Lan Xichen, "with Wangji's personality, how could he say anything if you do not ask? There are some things that even if you ask him he would not say."
Wei Wuxian, "If he doesn't wish to talk about something then I won't ask, especially twice."
"Very well," Lan Xichen said, "after you fell from the cliff at nightless city, Wangji made a mess at the burial mounds. Along with Uncle, we chose thirty-three seniors who had always thought highly of Wangji and searched for two days on our swords in secrecy. My uncle suddenly appeared before him and scolded him, asking for him to explain things. As if he knew all along he would be discovered by us, he said that there was nothing to explain, that this was it..."
