None of the three said anything. After they had walked out of the Library Pavilion, Lan WangJi finally spoke, “I will go see Uncle.”

Having been silent for a long time, Lan XiChen spoke as well, “I will bring Young Master Wei back. You can come afterwards.”

"Is Lan Qiren even awake at this hour?" asked Jiang Cheng.

"You should start calling him uncle.." said Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng just looked at him.

"Besides, is Lan Qiren even awake from the day he passed out in the room?" asked Nie Huaisang.

"When?" asked Wei Wuxian.

"Back in the Mingshi." said Nie Huiasang.

"When was that?" Wei Wuxian asked again and the three just looked at him.

"Lets just say he just woke up." said Jin Zixuan.

"Don't mind about when he passed out." he added and Wei Wuxian frowned at him.

Leading Wei WuXian, he walked along the white-pebble paths of the Cloud Recesses for a while before they returned to the secluded, gentianfilled cottage in the depths of the mountains. Wei WuXian stood in front of the door, “Does Mr. Lan know that HanGuang-Jun…”

Lan XiChen, “Uncle has just woken up. I told everyone not to tell him anything unnecessary.”

"I'm right, he just woke up." said Jin Zixuan.

"I don't care." said Wei Wuxian.

"I'm curious about that house though." he added.

"It's just a house." said Jiang Cheng and the Lans gave him a look.

"It's just a house, right?" he asked.

"I guess, that house has a lot of secrets and very important." said Wei Wuxian.

"And I guess, I offended the Lans." said Jiang Cheng.

If Lan QiRen knew of the things that Lan WangJi did with him under Koi Tower, he’d definitely be so angry that he passed out right after he had woken up. Wei WuXian, “Much thanks to Senior Lan for all of the work that he’s done.”

Lan XiChen, “Uncle has done a lot of work indeed.”

"I can even imagine his reaction when he finds out that Mo Xuanyu is Wei Wuxian all along." laughed Jiang Cheng.

"Me too. Like his eyes will be wide open because of shock, he will stutter, cough blood, and finally, he will pass out with blood dripping from his mouth." said Wei Wuxian.

"Oh, but don't forget the 'you're tainting my nephew, stay away from him'." said Nie Huaisang.

"They really love seeing me suffer, do they?" asked Lan Qiren.

Qingheng-jun just smiles at him.

Suddenly, he spoke, “Young Master Wei, do you know what this house is for?”

Wei WuXian, “ZeWu-Jun, why would you think that I’d know?”

Lan XiChen glanced at him, “This was where my mother lived back then in the Cloud Recesses.”

"Huh?" Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng asked in unison.

"I thought they love one another." said Nie Huaisang.

"Is it a forced marriage?" asked MianMian.

"Is a Lan even capable of doing that?" she added.

"If Lan Wangji could be shameless then, that's not impossible." said Jin Zixuan.
