Lan Qiren watched the young toddler that Lan Xichen had brought with him to his study. He still could not believe that Lan Wangji had irresponsibly flew all the way to the Burial Mounds despite all the prohibitions put on him.
And he had come back with a child.
Who knew where he had found him. That dirty and feverish little thing. It had not even been sure if the child would survive.
Luckily, the toddler proved to be stronger than even the healers anticipated. He rebounded quickly. Only for everyone to find out that he had lost his memory completely. He could not even say what his name was.
It was Lan Wangji who named him and insisted, that he would take him as his son. Lan Qiren and the rest of the Gusu Lan sect elders were not too happy. A child of unknown origin as a possible heir to the clan?
Lan Xichen, the acting leader, stepped in however and proclaimed the child a part of his family.
Family, huh, Lan Qiren mused. Even though he was less than happy with Lan Wangji, he could not deny that the thought of a grand-nephew was not completely displeasing.
