11

It was 5 pm, just one more hour until dinner. Wei Ying was fidgeting a lot in his room, he was worried about the dinner. He could already see how the dinner would unfold, Yu Ziyuan is going to make a fit about his and her son's relationship with men. She wanted Jiang Cheng to marry a fine girl, someone who had a good background and would be a good housewife.

"Boy, will she be pissed." Said Wei Ying to himself

There was a knock on the door, Wei Ying looked up to see that it was A-Jie.

"Your guest is here, I told him to wait in the kitchen. You should have told me that he is so handsome."

Wei Ying blushed, he wasn't ready for reality to hit yet.

"Okay, tell him I'll be down soon."

"Sure."

Wei Ying got properly dressed and walked down the stairs. He heads into the kitchen to see that Lan Zhan was sitting at the table drinking tea. Lan Zhan was wearing a blue suit, it really brought out his golden eyes.

"Lan Zhan, you're here."

Lan Zhan looked up, he smiled.

"Omg, how can his smile be so handsome?" thought Wei Ying

Lan Zhan stood up and walked over to Wei Ying, he took something a box of his pocket. He gave it Wei Ying, he leaned in and whispered something. Wei Ying's eyes grew big, he really wanted to see what it was, but Lan Zhan just told him to open it when they were alone.

"Who are you?"

Lan Zhan felt a tug on his pants, he looked down to see Jin Ling looking up at him.

"Jin Ling, let go of his pants," said Wei Ying

Wei Ying leans down to pick up his nephew, Jin Ling kept on shifting in Wei Ying arms.

"Wahhh, I want to play with big brother." Jin Ling said crying

"Shh, calm down Jin Ling," said Wei Ying

Jiang Yanli comes into the kitchen.

"What's wrong?"

"A-Jie, Jin Ling is just upset that I won't let him play with Lan Zhan."

"A-Xian, don't bully Jin Ling."

"Sorry A-Jie, Lan Zhan; do you want to hold Jin Ling?"

"Um, sure."

Wei Ying passed Jin Ling to Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan was hesitant. He had never held a child before.

"You're doing fine Lan Zhan." Said, Wei Ying

"Big brother, let's play together."

"Mmm."

Lan Zhan puts Jin Ling down, Jin Ling leads Lan Zhan to his room. Wei Ying followed them, he wanted to see how things would unravel.

"What do you want to play Jin Ling?" asked Wei Ying

"Let's play hide and seek," said Jin Ling

"Hm okay, are you going to be hiding Jin Ling?"

"YAY!"

Jin Ling starts running around, finding a place to hide while the two men cover their eyes and count to 10.

"1," said Wei Ying

"2," said Lan Zhan

"3,"

"4,"

"5,"

"6,"

"7,"

"8,"

"9,"

"10,"

"Ready or not here we come," said Wei Ying

The two men start walking around the room, they look everywhere for Jin Ling.

"Where are you Jin Ling?" asked Wei Ying

There was no reply, Lan Zhan looked in the closet. Jin Ling wasn't there. Wei Ying looked under the bed, Jin Ling wasn't there either.

"Where could Jin Ling had run off to?" Wei Ying asked Lan Zhan

Lan Zhan shakes his head, but he takes this opportunity of being alone with Wei Ying to kiss him. He slowly closes the door to Jin Ling's room.

"Mhm, we can't do this now; there are other people in the house."

Lan Zhan pretends to not hear what Wei Ying says and continues to kiss Wei Ying.

"I've missed you."

"Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan; we saw each other this morning."

"Too long."

Lan Zhan slowly guides his hand down Wei Ying's chest.

"Mhm, Lan Zhan; we really shouldn't be doing this."

This only makes Lan Zhan more bold, he gets down on his knee and starts to unzip Wei Ying's pants.

"Lan- Lan Zhan, stop."

Lan Zhan begins to suck, it was slow at first; but he quickly picked up the pace. Wei Ying came slowly after into Lan Zhan's mouth.

"Go spit it out."

Lan Zhan looks him in the eyes while swallowing the cum.

"Sigh, Lan Zhan; you are going to be the death of me."

"Mmm."

Wei Ying cleaned himself off, and pulled back his pants up.

"Let's go find Jin Ling before people start to worry."

"Mmm," Lan Zhan says getting up off the floor

They hear a giggling sound coming from outside the room, Wei Ying smirks.

"Let's check downstairs."

"Mmm."

The two of them leave Jin Ling's room, they start to go down the stairs. The giggles get louder, they follow the sound all the way to the living room. Standing there was Jiang Cheng holding Jin Ling.

"When did you get here Jiang Cheng?" asked Wei Ying

"Like 2 minutes ago," replied Jiang Cheng

"Where is Lan Xichen?"

"He's in the kitchen with sis."

"Hm, Jin Ling you're so sneaky." Wei Ying said turning his attention to Jin Ling

"Hehe."

"We didn't say you can leave the room." Wei Ying went to pinch Jin Ling's cheeks

"Hehe."

Lan Zhan was watching them from the corner of the room.

"Wei Ying, is so good with kids." thought Lan Zhan

Wei Ying sees Lan Zhan looking at him.

"Do you want to try holding him again Lan Zhan?" asked Wei Ying

"No."

"Ok, Jin Ling let's go check on your mommy."

"Yay!"

Jiang Cheng, Wei Ying carrying Jin Ling and Lan Zhan walk back into the kitchen. They see Jiang Yanli cooking and Lan Xichen helping her.

"Lan Xichen, you are so good in the kitchen," said Jiang Yanli

"Thank you, I've been cooking since I was a kid," replied Lan Xichen

"Sis, what is that nice smell?" said Jiang Cheng

"Oh, Jiang Cheng. Lan Xichen made some mapo tofu, it tastes so good and spicy."

Wei Ying perked up when hearing that the mapo tofu was going to be spicy. He puts Jin Ling down and goes over to the stove. He was about to serve himself some mapo tofu when he hears a males voice.

"Wei Ying, be patient." It was Jiang Fengmian, and next to him was Yu Ziyuan (Madam Yu)

Jin Ling runs up to Madam Yu, Madam Yu smiles at her grandson. A smile that Wei Ying never gets to see.

"Uncle, you are back."

Wei Ying puts down the bowl in his hand.

"Glad you decided to come back home. You should come home more often with Jiang Cheng."

"I'll try uncle."

Jiang Fengmian looks at the two men who are not his family.

"Who are those gentlemen?"

"Oh, this is Lan Wangji and the other is his older brother Lan Xichen," replied Wei Ying

"Lan? Do you gentlemen know a man named Lan Qiren?"

"Yes, he is our uncle," said Lan Xichen

"Oh, he never said anything about having two handsome looking nephews."

"What are they doing here?" Madam Yu said

"They are here to celebrate Wei Wuxian's passing for his audition."

"Hm, so you actually did something with your life." Madam Yu said bluntly

"Yes." Wei Ying said heads down

The Jiang family can feel the tension in the air.

"Come on, let's eat before the food gets cold," said Jiang Yanli

They walk to the dining table, it has already been pulled out to make room for more people. Jiang Fengmian and Madam Yu sat across from each other. Jiang Yanli sits next to her mother with Jin Ling sitting in a high chair and Jiang Cheng to Madam Yu's left. Lan Xichen sits next to Jiang Cheng with Lan Zhan sitting across from his brother. Wei Ying sits next to him.
