Destiny

Chapter - 16

In Gusu , Lan Xichen had just came from the elders hall. He didn't get any news from Lan Wangji so he was little worried. It's not that he didn't trust in his brother's ability but this time he felt anxious when he left.

He was walking and subconsciously arrived in front of his mother's house or say prison , Gentian Hall. Away from main house. After their mother's death he never entered here , just stare from outside.

Lan Xichen stood in front of the house but didn't dare to enter. He was staring in front when he heard someone's voice.

" Sect leader" Wen Qing said and bowed.

Lan Xichen turned to the voice and smiled warmly.

" Lady Wen " lan Xichen said and nodded slightly.

" Sect leader, here.... " Lady Wen said.

" I was in thoughts so walked here without knowing." Lan Xichen answered.

Wen Qing nodded in understanding.

" Lady Wen , what are you doing here ? " Lan Xichen asked.

" I was looking for some herbs and I found some herbal plants here. Weird no one notice these common plants."

" Because no one come here " lan Xichen cleared the confusion.

" May I ask why ?"

" It's my mother's place."

" My apologies , sect leader." Wen Qing said. Everyone knew rumours about Twin Jades' parents but no one knew the internal story. So wen Qing thought she crossed the line.

" No, no it's ok ." Lan Xichen said with gentle smile.

" Lady Wen , you don't have any inconvenience here ? "

" No, sect leader "

" If you have , please don't hesitate to complain. You are also a part of sect now." Lan Xichen said.

Wen Qing still used her Wen surname as she and her brother were given permission by Lan Xichen. Lan Xichen didn't want them to live in hiding anymore, they have already suffered a lot. But as sect member Wen Qing was given sect robes with a forehead ribbon without cloud patterns. Wen Qing rarely wore it. She had started to wear different colour robes in light colors instead of red only.

" Yes , sect leader."

" May I ask why are you worried, sect leader ? "

" I'm fine, thank you for concern, lady Wen. I was just thinking about Wangji."

" Hanguang Jun is a great warrior, you don't have to be worried."

" I have faith in him." Lan Xichen said.

" Then ? "

" Just his fate always play with him." Lan Xichen said with a sad smile.

Wen Qing didn't understand the words but still she knew her boundaries so she didn't say anything.

" Lady Wen, you can come here for herbs. You have my permission."

" Thank you, sect leader." Wen Qing said smiling.

Lan Xichen turned to leave. When he was walking towards Hanshi , he saw a disciple coming to him. The disciple bowed and tell him that Lan Qiren asked for him in his room. Lan Xichen nodded. And moved towards his uncle's room.

" Uncle " Lan Xichen said and bowed .

Lan Qiren nodded in acknowledgement.

" Is something matter ? " Lan Xichen asked.
