Chapter 7 Fear

By the time they returned to Cloud Reccess, it was already nightfall. The juniors had retired to their rooms.

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan had just returned to their Jingshi. Lan Zhan sent a butterfly message to his brother, saying they were back.

He removed his present he got for Wei Ying, a beautiful black robe with red embroidery to go with his inner robes that were red.

"Lan Zhan, this is beautiful. You don't seize to spoil me, Er-gege," his face gave of a wide smile

"Mn," Lan Zhan was looking at how beautiful Wei Ying was smiling, touching the robes and smelling it .

"I didn't get anything for you, Lan Zhan am such a bad husband." His countenance had turned to that of a sad one. "I was so distracted."

Lan Zhan almost wanted to ask, distracted by what or more to say who, but he kept his mouth shut .

"It okay Wei Ying you're with me," he decided to say

"Lan Zhan, my body is the gift, Haa!" his tone teasing as he had shifted bumping his shoulder with lan zhan's own

"Not what I meant, Wei Ying." he looked amused

"I know, I know I couldn't help tease you a bit," and then Wei WuXian moved to kiss his lips, but before he could do that, they were interrupted by ZeWu-Jun

"Hope am not interrupting anything Wangji , Master Wei." Lan XiChen had a smile on his face and his gaze on his brother as if telling him you guys should lock your doors.

"No Sect leader Lan," Wei WuXian responded, knowing clearly well that his brother in law knew what he had done but acted like he didn't know.

"How was the night hunt? Anything new to report," his tone serious

"No, brother," Wangji responded tone equally serious.

"Well, Sect leader Lan, there is something I have been meaning to discuss with you when you have time, maybe over a cup of tea,"

"Sure, Wei WuXian, you're always welcome to my office when you're ready." he gave Wei Wuxian, a gentle smile

"Thank you, ZeWu-Jun," Wei WuXian said while bowing.

"No need for the formalities " Wei WuXian couldn't help smile looking at Lan XiChen he had always remained the talkative of the two brothers .

"Then excuse me," and with that, Lan XiChen walked out of the Jingshi, his right hand behind his back, and his white ribbon flowing with the wind

"Say isn't it odd that nothing has occurred for the past weeks we have been going on night hunts." Wei WuXian had two fingers on his nose, flicking it

"Mn," Lan Zhan was staring into the distance, apparently also thinking

"Ah Lan Zhan I feel odd like something isn't right" his fingers had left his nose and were in a continuous motion rubbing his chin "I have tried to sense for any demonic activity and found nothing it almost to peaceful"

"Mn it odd indeed I sense no disturbances "

"Well, maybe.... " he didn't get to finish his sentence when a butterfly flew past his ears to land on Lan Zhan's hand

''My uncle has called for me. " His expressions showed slight worry after hearing the message

Wei WuXian could see that something wasn't right. The look on Lan Zhan's face had worry all over it

"What did he say?" Wei WuXian asked

"I don't know yet," and when he looked at him now his face had returned to normal, clearly trying to hide his earlier worry .
