Wei Ying hums softly as he waters the few plants that President Lan had in his office, the pile of work that he had completed for him to look over sat neatly on his desk with a fresh cup of ginsing tea, the ceramic cup was actually the twin of Wei Ying's own cup, but in white with a matching lid that keeps the tea nice and hot. It had cute bunnies frolicking around the cup, all of them had adorable robe like jackets and magnolia flower crowns. His own cup was black, the bunnies dressed in the robe like jackets, but their flower crowns were spider lilies. Wei Ying giggled softly at the subtle prank he wanted to pull on President Lan when he returned. He's sure he will see the cutesy cup and request Wei Ying to get him a mug of coffee instead, feeling a bit out of sorts because he did not want to drink out of a cup meant for the fairer sex.

"There we go, you're all nice and watered now..." Wei Ying smiles and goes to put the little watering can back where he found it, but startles seeing President Lan standing behind him. "Oh, you gave me a fright! Can I help you, sir?"

"What was Wei Ying humming just now?" he cocks his head to the side slightly, his golden eyes piercing into Wei Ying and leaving him feeling oddly exposed and yet wholly guarded.

"Oh, it's an old love ballad, my Mama use to sing it all the time. I would fall asleep dreaming I was the fairy in the song falling in love with the Phoenix Emperor... silly right?" Wei Ying laughs softly, cheeks flushing. "My parents did not believe in gender norms, if I wanted to play with dolls, they would buy me dolls, if I wanted to dress like a butterfly princess on my birthday, Baba would spend a week making me those butterfly wings and dress. When I came to live with my Aunt and Uncle, I had to stop doing that, at least until I was an adult."

"Why did Wei Ying stop?" The white clad man asks, silently stepping closer and Wei Ying feels like the helpless mouse staring into the eyes of a cat or a snake about to pounce and devour it.

"Madam Yu, my aunt, thought it was disgraceful for a boy to play with girl toys or to dress like a girl. My Uncle tried to fight her on it multiple times, but she would just grab my things and toss them or burn them. So I played with boy toys and dressed like a boy until I was old enough to buy my own things with my own money. Now she cannot touch them if she does not want to pay me back." Wei Ying tells him, wondering why he was being so chatty about his home life.

"If Wei Ying wishes to wear something pretty, he should..." President Lan tells him and for a hot second Wei Ying thinks the man will grab him and ravish him, but then those golden eyes blink, the spell is broken and President Lan goes to his desk to work, calmly removing the lid from the bunny cup and taking a deep breath of it before he sips the still hot tea.

Wei Ying is left stunned because President Lan didn't even bat an eye at the cute cup! Maybe next time he will put hot sauce in the tea. He pouts a bit as he turns to leave.

"Wei Ying, come." He blinks and moves to the desk, wondering what he missed or what the man could need. "Closer." Wei Ying comes to stand beside the desk only to gasp when the bigger male grabs his wrist suddenly and pulls him to sit across his lap. "Better." The older male says and begins to look over the documents as if he was not hold Wei Ying hostage

Wei Ying was too shocked and flustered to say anything or to attempt fleeing, and even then, just the slightest shift to get a bit kore comfortable, he felt the steel bands that Presidant Lan called arms entrap him with little hope if any, to escape. Wei Ying eventually felt tired and slowly dozed off, nestling into the Lan as he did so. Said male gives a pleased growl, nuzzling Wei Ying's temple as he keeps working.

"Rest, my Ying, I will not have my bride tired or stressed..." He whispers as Wei Ying snuggles close and snores softly in his sleep...
