TW: death, gore and the big sad

"Is mama okie?" Sīzhuī asked clutching onto his father's robe this time,lan zhan looked at his son with teary eyes and shook his head."He isn't" Lan Zhan said picking him off the ground and put him on his lap. Sīzhuī frowned and did what his mama had taught him to do when people were sad.

"If somebody's sad, you hug them with your chubby little hands, okie?" Wei Ying chirped hugging the twins. They nodded and bolted towards their uncle wanyin who they had assumed was sad.

"Have hugs" Sīzhuī whispered and wrapped his little hands around his father's neck. Jingyi on the other side had been taken away by lan xichen when he had thrown a tantrum trying to break inside of jingshi where his mama was.

"Go back to your brother, I have to be with mama" A'Yuan, nodded and followed lan qiren who took him to his chambers.

Lan wangji was in the main hall with his uncle when the healer's assistant had come inside rushing to tell them that wei ying had fallen down head first and had a dagger stuck on his side possibly fatal to kill the unborn child. Without wasting anymore second not batting a look at tue snowy surrounding around him, lan Zhan bolted towards the Jingshi to his wei ying's aide, just to realise that it was too late to save one of them.

"I-i am afraid that the child did not survive" The healer said in a less remorseful tone, rather with a lot of guilt filled look on her face. Lan zhan could do nothing but nod with his eyes red from earlier. He was ready to hear the worst from just like he had expected to a few months ago.

"A girl" The healer confirmed the child's gender, who once lan zhan used to despise for slowly killing his husband, but, who was he to unsee the fact that in the end of the day the child was his. The girl was his and wei ying's proof of love. How could he ever learn to truly hate the child which once he had looked forward to.

"How about a girl next time, hanguang jun?" Wei Ying spoke excitedly as he put the newborns in their cribs gently.

Lan Zhan looked at his husband with a bewildered look on his face and remembered how wei ying had decided to not let him touch him for another time when he was going through labor.

"Oh come on, hanguang jun, I think Yiyi and a'yuan would really like to have their own little sister when they grow up wouldn't they?" Wei Ying spoke in a cheeky tone sitting down on lan zhan's lap.

"Does wei ying really want one?" Lan Zhan asked getting rid of the stray strands of hair off his forehead. Wei Ying nodded and cuddled closer to lan Zhan basking in his warmth which radiated off him when he was in jingshi.

"Then fine" lan Zhan said in a hushed out whisper when he heard the twins move around in their crib.

Pressing kiss on Wei ying's soft cheeks he got up with him in his arms to go back to their bed.

"She had completely developed for a two month old" The healer spoke asking the man to come inside his own house, it was as if lan wangji had completely frozen from his head to toe when he was lost in past where him and wei ying had wanted nothing but a girl.

How much ever he had tried to hate the child, in the end of the day he had wanted nothing more than to hold her in his arms along with wei ying who had gone to such long pains to bring her into this world. Hoping to hold his daughter to be moving around in his arms getting all worked up as she giggled continuously, it was still a dream as he held his daughter in his arms. 

"It's about time that master wei wakes up, you should let her go hanguang jun"

And Lan Zhan did, he let her go far away from him and Wei Ying, all the hatred he had for the child had also let gone of when he saw his daughter being taken away from him and wei ying. He let her go so far that he had hoped to wake up from his nightmarish reality next to his wei ying and the twins early in the morning when he could go for little walks with the twins who were still in a sleepy daze murmuring ' where mama' every time.
