      Xichen opened his eyes slowly, he looked around and realized that he was already in Hansi. He took a deep breath, he peeked at the window across the room, it was still dark. That means it's still night. Xichen moved his hand, and he realized that someone was holding his right hand. He turned his head and saw Lan Zhan sleeping while sitting up, his head resting on the bed while holding his hands.

Xichen smiled, he stroked Lan Zhan's head gently. Lan Zhan woke up with a start, he saw Xichen who was awake, immediately jumped onto the bed and released his power, he tried to heal Xichen's sealed jindan.

Xichen grabbed Lan Zhan's hand "it's alright Wangji, I'm fine" he said

Lan Zhan looked at him with a look full of fear, he held Xichen's hand tightly, his hand was shaking very violently.

Xichen then held Lan Zhan's hand with his other hand, he brought Lan Zhan's hand to his chest "it's okay didi" he tried to calm him down.

Lan Zhan's expression became somewhat calm, he looked at Xichen with a look full of sadness, his eyes were filled with tears, but he refused to let the tears fall.

"Zhan Zhan, do you remember the song that mother used to sing to us when we were little?" Xichen asked

Lan Zhan nodded

Xichen took a deep breath

"Sleep, little one, close your eyes
Your body's cooling with the night
Let your worries slip away
Tomorrow is a brand new day" Xichen started to sing

"Shimmering moon and satin sky
Soft wind breathes its lullaby
Your dreams are here to set you free
The dawn will bring you back to me" Lan Zhan followed Xichen to sing with him

"The dawn will bring you back to me" they sing together

Xichen looked at Lan Zhan with a warm gaze full of affection "The dawn will bring you back to me..."

Xichen held Lan Zhan's hand tightly and didn't let go "didi, don't worry, whatever happens I will always be here with you. I will always be your home, even though you are an adult and married, you will always be my Zhan Zhan, and I will always be Huan Huan gege. Understand"

Lan Zhan pulled his hand, he then pulled Xichen into a hug, a very tight hug, he shed tears "I don't want to lose anyone again" he sobbed into Xichen's shoulder

Xichen returned Lan Zhan's hug, he patted Lan Zhan's shoulder.

After hugging for a long time, Xichen let go of the hug, he took Lan Zhan's hand and kissed Lan Zhan's knuckles again, and stroked Lan Zhan's head. He always did that when they were little, but as they grew up, they were stiffer and Lan Zhan seemed to withdraw from Xichen. Lan Zhan always thought that Xichen had changed too, because they are a grown up now, but no. Xichen is still his Huan Huan gege

"And remember. ,"The dawn will bring you back to me"
