CHAPTER ELEVEN
Brother!








The two of them went to the restaurant which the lady recommended to Wei Wuxian earlier. It was three blocks away from the bus stop, Wei Wuxian didn’t mind that he’s going home late but his concern was the cake which was held by Lan Wangji, he saw the slight moist on the box, it’s almost ten minutes’ walk until they arrived on the Homey Restaurant. Wei Wuxian called it Homey since the outer and interior design of the said place was styled into a typical native Chinese home with Chinese Lanterns, bungalow house appearance, the furniture are wooden antiques and as he glanced above the door of the entrance, he noticed the golden wind chime with intricate design which resembles to the Sun. Wei Wuxian guessed that the owner of this place inherited this from their Old Generation.

He took a peek inside while Lan Wangji was only observing him, there are already customers who are eating inside, and the strong smell of spices met floated in the air. Wei Wuxian loves to eat spicy food and it made his stomach churn involuntarily; Suddenly, Wei Wuxian realized that the money he brought with him is only enough to buy the cake.

Lan Wangji who was silent on his side can’t help but say, “Are we supposed to eat here, right?”

Wei Wuxian jumped on his feet when he heard Lan Wangji’s voice. He looked up to him and he met his intense gaze. He smiled shyly, “Uh, Yes”.

Wei Wuxian scratched his head, his stupidity is beyond grasp. All his confidence was drained from his body. Lan Wangji noticed his troubled expression but he didn’t comment further.

A sudden idea came inside Wei Wuxian’s mind. “Uh, Lan Zhan… I think it’s already late, I might miss my bus.” He immediately glanced on his watch to make his alibi convincing.

The person infront of him looked at him incredulously.

It made Wei Wuxian to chuckle awkwardly, “Uh, I’m sorry Lan Zhan.. I know that I was the one who invited you..” then his eyes fixed on the entrance, Wei Wuxian remembered that the food here costs a lot of zeros and the way the both of them standing on the side of the entrance is quite laughable.

“Sirs?”

A young man, called their attention. He’s wearing a uniform in black pants, white sleeved shirt and a black ribbon. His hair is neatly kept on the side; he looked both of them expectantly.

“Would you like to come in?” he added. The manager of the restaurant called him as he noticed the fine men standing on the entrance for almost five minutes, as if they are debating whether to go inside or not.

Wei Wuxian thought of slipping away from Lan Wangji by lying his way out but when he saw the cold expression on the person, he had to rethink again.

“I thought you are hungry?” Lan Zhan asked in indifferent tone. He ignored the gent on the entrance who is waiting for them.

Wei Wuxian’s face go awry, “Uh, Yes but its already late and-“

Lan Wangji pursed his lips as if he heard something that is pissing him, he can’t help but grabbed Wei Wuxian’s left hand and lead him towards inside. He saw the relieved expression on the waiter but Wei Wuxian on the other hand was so stressed that he had to yanked his hand from Lan Wangji’s grip.

“Hey Lan Zhan! Wait!”

But Lan Wangji didn’t listen to him, instead he talked to the waiter that he wants a table for two.

Wei Wuxian hastily goes to Wangji’s side then says in pleading whisper, “This is so embarrassing but I have to tell you that I forgot to bring extra money with me.”
