He still didn't hear clearly what the name was. Blood rushed up to his face. Both his head and the joints of his limbs ached from the heat. The ringing noise within his ears went on and on.

"We're back in this timeline." said Nie Huaisang.

"That's great then." said Wei Wuxian with a sigh.

When he woke up again, as Wei WuXian opened his eyes, what he saw was neither the black ceiling of the underground cave nor Lan WangJi's pale yet handsome face, but rather a wooden board. Drawn on the board was a funny series of kissing heads.

These were the sketches that he drew on his own bed at Lotus Pier.

"What the heck?! Why do you have that?" asked Jin Zixuan.

"I was young, okay." said Wei Wuxian.

"He imagined himself in that kind of situation." said Jiang Cheng with a scoff.

"Well, whose first kiss was taken before me?" asked Wei Wuxian.

"I bet you're first kiss makes you weak." said Jiang Cheng.

"It really did." the juniors whispered with a chuckle.

Wei WuXian was lying on his own bed. Jiang YanLi was reading a book, her head tilted downward. Seeing that he woke up, her mild brows immediately lifted, laying her book down, "A-Xian!"

Wei WuXian, "Shijie!"

He managed to get up from his bed. His limbs stopped burning, but they still felt weak. His throat was a bit dry as well. Wei WuXian asked, "I'm back? When did I come out of the cave? Did Uncle Jiang take people to rescue me? Where's Lan Zhan? Where's Jiang Cheng?"

"You're first priority when you woke up is to ask about him. And here you are, oblivious to his feelings." said Jiang Cheng.

"Why are you attacking me?" asked Wei Wuxian.

"So you know what it feels now? Then don't do that to me ever again. Tease me one more time and I'm going to get my revenge." said Jiang Cheng.

"I won't stop." said Wei Wuxian.

The wooden door opened. Jiang Cheng came in with a white porcelain jar hanging from his hand, his voice harsh, "What are you shouting for?"

After he spoke, he turned to Jiang YanLi, "Sister, the soup that you boiled. I brought it over."

"Look at how you speak to us in different tone." said Wei Wuxian.

"Do you expect me to talk softly to you? That's impossible." said Jiang Cheng.

"A-jie is more special." he added.

"So I'm not special." said Wei Wuxian.

"No, you're not." said Jiang Cheng.

Jiang YanLi took the jar over and ladled the contents inside of it into a bowl. Wei WuXian, "Jiang Cheng, you bastard, come over here!"

Jiang Cheng, "Why would you want me to come over? You wanna kneel down and thank me?"

"I will never." said Wei Wuxian.

"You guys are really so sarcastic." said Nie Huaisang.

"What do you expect?" asked Jin Zixuan.

Wei WuXian, "You got here after an entire seven days-did you want to kill me?!"

Jiang Cheng, "You've been killed? Then who's talking to me right now?"
