"HanGuang-Jun, look at SiZhui—he’s scared you’ll punish him and he’s peeking at you. Say yes, quick. If you say ‘yes’, it means you also agree with my point of view, which then means you won’t punish him."
Without any change in expression, Lan WangJi replied, "Yes."
"And in the end? You go and protect outsiders, haha! The Wen Sect's people, even. How much of their rice did you eat?! Defecting with such resolution! What did you take our sect to be?! You did all the best things, yet every time you do the worst ones, it's involuntary!"
Wei WuXian responded, his expression serious this time, "I’m sorry. I was just too happy. Lan Zhan, how come you’re so good at everything? You’re amazing even when it comes to cooking!"
"HanGuang-Jun, just what is wrong with you? You… You are not you anymore. In the past, you clearly could not even stand the YiLing Patriarch. Just what technique did Wei WuXian use to bewitch you for you to stand on the side opposite to us?"
"My mom said you have to remember the things others do for you, not the things you do for others. Only when people don't hold so much in their hearts would they finally feel free."
Again, he spoke in a low voice, "Mnn."
Wei WuXian laughed, "What did you ‘mnn’ for? That’s not how you should’ve responded." Meanwhile, in his heart, he commented gleefully, "Mnn" is the only thing he knows to say. He’s still so stuffy!
Lan SiZhui buried his head between their shoulders, "HanGuang-Jun, Senior Wei, I… I…"
Hearing his muffled voice, Wei WuXian and Lan WangJi exchanged a look, only inches apart. They both saw something soft within each other's eyes.
"…You said I'd be the sect leader and you’d be my subordinate, you said you’d help me your whole life, you said you’d never betray the YunmengJiang Sect… You said so yourself."
After a moment of silence, Wei WuXian replied, "I'm sorry. I broke my promise."
"Do you behave in such a frivolous way towards everyone?"
Wei WuXian thought for a second, "I think so?"
Lan WangJi looked at the ground. He only replied a moment later, "How impudent!" He spoke the two words through clenched teeth, along with some strange hatred.
Wei WuXian clapped lightly, whispering, "Wow. You’d expect no less from Sect Leader Jin."
Jin Ling blushed, hissing, "What are you doing? Don’t distract me, alright?!"
Wei WuXian grinned and pointed at himself. "How about this one?"
Lan WangJi, "Mine."
"..."
Lan WangJi stared at him, slowly and articulately stating, "Mine."
"Ignoring the objections from his clan, he knelt with her for the Heavens and the Earth without making a sound and told everyone in the clan that she would be his wife for the rest of his life, that whoever wanted to harm her would have to pass through him first."
Instantaneously, the boys from the GusuLan clan started beaming, as if they were born again. Lan SiZhui wiped the blood off his face and raised his head, happily exclaiming, "HanGuang-Jun!"
Lan WangJi immediately stood in front of Wei WuXian, while Lan SiZhui stood in front of Lan WangJi, speaking carefully, "Young Master Jin."
Wei WuXian walked out from behind the two, "What are you doing? It's like you‟re making a human pyramid."
