"Are you being unfaithful?" Wen Qing angrily accused him when they were alone in his room. And Zhan couldn't help but notice the hurt in the woman's voice despite the anger. "With a fiancé like yours, you shouldn't let Lan Wangji's flirting get to you."
"I-I don't know how to explain, Wen Qing," he said feeling a bit lost. The thought that he was just dreaming vanished entirely.
"What explanation will you give?" she said sadly. "Just like last night you were locked in that man's arms. And now look at you— you're both almost naked and I don't know what you and Lan Wangji just did?" Zhan let out a sigh, trying to ease the tension. "What you saw was just that, Wen Qing."
Wen Qing appraised him for a moment before breathing a sigh of relief. "Well, I'm glad I didn't tag along with Nana Shuyi at the market. By the way, what you're wearing, did Uncle Changze buy that for you?"
"Just forget what I'm wearing."
"Just forget?" Wen Qing's eyes widened. "I just don't get you, Wuxian. And seriously, where did you even get that kind of clothes? I can't tell if Lan Wangji is the one making a move on you or you are the one seducing him..."
"You can't blame me if I find Lan Wangji attracted, Wen Qing. He's gorgeous..." Zhan said as if dreaming.
"G-gorgeous?" Wen Qing repeated. "When did you start learning to say stuff like that?"
"And irresistible," Zhan added with a grin, clearly enjoying the chance to tease her.
"Uh, yeah, I can't argue with that," Wen Qing said, her expression shifting to one of confusion. "Gorgeous... irresistible. Yes. That definitely fits Lan Wangji." Then she got serious again. "Don't go playing with fire, Wuxian. You keep pushing Wangyin's patience and love for you."
"I-I'm not in love with him, Wen Qing." How that came out of his mouth Zhan didn't know. It made him think back to when Zhoucheng was trying to woo him.
"Regardless, you can't just go back on the agreement. Uncle Changze won't let that happen. You'll bring shame to your father and even more to Wangyin if you refuse to marry him!" Her voice was filled with panic.
Zhan stayed quiet. Is Wen Qing talking about his Grandpa Wangyin? The husband of Grandpa Wuxian? Makes sense! His dad said he wasn't even born when Jiang Wangyin passed away. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Wangyin didn't have any children.
So, who exactly is Lan Wangji? What is the role of Wangji in the life of his Grandpa Wuxian? And why does he seem to have this pull towards him? And what's the connection of Wangji with Lan Quiren, the father of the man paired with his cousin Ziyi?
Above all, why was he at this timeline?
