Untamed Feeling ( wangxian )

chapter forty five 🫰

Wei Wuxian's face flushed at the Lan disciple's comment, and he shot a glare at the Jiang disciples "Are you happy now? You made me lose face in front of the Lans ! "

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes "And whose fault is that? It's you who always acts like Second jade's personal mosquito."

Wei wuxian cheeks started to burn, and he felt like soon they would burst but he still tried to act nonchalant and cool, "ChengCheng, I was just trying to befriend Lan Zhan," Wei Wuxian muttered defensively, but he was already aware of how ridiculous his excuses sounded, now.

"Wei-xiong, it looked more like you were obsessed with Hanguang-jun's presence," Nie Huaisang chimed in with a teasing smile, waving his fan over his face.

Wei WuXian opened his mouth to defend himself, but for once, words failed him. Flustered, he turned toward Lan Wangji, half-expecting him to scold the others on his behalf.

But the moment his eyes met Lan Wangji's face, he faltered.

Is Lan Zhan... enjoying this teasing?

Hanguang-jun's usually impassive face carried the faintest hint of amusement, almost invisible curve at the corner of his lips, a softened gaze that lingered a second too long.

Wei WuXian forgot whatever he was going to say.

Nei Mingjue scolded his brother, " Sang don't fool around," then he turned to wei wuxian and said," Wei Wuxian don't make me take my words back about you being a good teacher."

Wei WuXian pulled his attention to Nei Mingjue, grinning smugly, arms folded, "I only speak the truth. That kid has a keen eye. He'll grow up to break hearts for sure."

Lan Qiren, overhearing it all, sighed deeply and muttered, "Such improper teaching..." While Nei Mingjue shook his head like he accepted that Wei wuxian is so unpredictable -each passing second holds a different meaning for him.

Another boy spoke, "It looks like that the sounds of a bamboo pole knocking on the ground were from when she was walking. If she had been blind before she passed away, she would not have been able to see even after she became a ghost, so she could only rely on the white cane."

Another one of the boys argued, "But how would that be possible? You have all seen blind people, have you not? Because they cannot use their eyes, they move and walk slowly, in case they bump into anything. However, the ghost outside the door has swift movements. I have never seen such a nimble blind person before."

Wei WuXian smiled, "Good job. Props to you for thinking about this. This is exactly how you should analyze. Don't dismiss any points of suspicion. Now, let's invite her inside to get some answers."

Suddenly, a wave of chaos erupted in the hall.

"What?!"

"Wei Wuxian, have you lost your marbles ? "

"You want to invite a ghost inside the house?!"

"There are children with you too !"

Accusations flew like arrows as everyone glared at Wei Wuxian like he was a madman loose in a sacred temple.

"How could you even think of endangering the juniors? "
Sect Leader Ouyang wrapped his arms protectively around his son, his voice shaking with anger.
