Destiny

Chapter - 2

Lan Sizhui bowed to Wei Wuxian and then throw himself on Wei Wuxian and embraced him in a bone crushing hug.

" Aiyaa..  A' Yuan your arm strength has increased  from last time. "

"Are you taking revenge on me for squeezing little you in hugs ? "Wei Wuxian said laughing.

Lan Sizhui release Wei Wuxian and gave a big , wide smile. He usually remained calm , collected, stoic but perfect lan like Lan Wangji . He gave these wide smiles or laugh only to his Wei gege and A'die.

"Wei gege , you are back. " Lan Sizhui said . Excitement and happiness was clear in his face and in his voice.

" I missed my little radish." Wei Wuxian said pinching Sizhui's nose.

Lan Yuan scrunched his nose and rubbed like a kid .

" But the little radish has grown taller than last time." Wei Wuxian said.

Lan Yuan immediately sat down and held Wei Wuxian's leg like he used to do as a kid.

Wei Wuxian laughed heartily.

" A'yuan, you are not a small kid anymore ." Wei Wuxian said lovingly , caressing Sizhui's hair.

Lan Sizhui had a goofy grin on his face.

" Aiyaa... get up ! someone will see you. " Wei Wuxian said.

Lan Sizhui stood up straight.

" Where were you ? " Wei Wuxian asked.

" I went to town for some work with jingyi."lan Sizhui answered.

"So you have just come ?"  Wei Wuxian raised his eyebrows.

" No, I was with A'd...  Hanguang Jun behind the mountain. I come to find you after giving him report." Lan Sizhui said.

Wei Wuxian nodded.

" Wei gongzi ! " Lan Xichen who had just came said when he saw Wei Wuxian.

Lan Sizhui immediately bowed .

" Sect leader lan !" Wei Wuxian said and cupped his hand in a bow.

" It's pleasant to see you here." Lan Xichen said with his usual warm smile.

" Thank you." Wei Wuxian said sincerely.

" Sizhui where is Wangji ? " Lan Xichen asked.

"Hanguang Jun is in library." Lan Sizhui answered politely . He had already schooled his expression.

" You don't have to be like Wangji all the time." Lan Xichen said shaking his head .

Wei Wuxian laughed at lan  Xichen's comment . He fully agreed with him.
Lan Sizhui ears had become red .

" Then first I meet Wangji. After that I would like you to join me for tea." Lan Xichen said glancing at Wei Wuxian.

" Sure , sect leader lan." Wei Wuxian said.

Lan Xichen nodded and left.

" Well I agree with Sect leader. You have become a mini version of Lan Zhan." Wei Wuxian said putting his hand on Lan Sizhui's shoulder.

" He brought me up." Lan Sizhui said softly.

"But I can never be like him . It's impossible for anyone to be like him." Lan Sizhui said with proud and admiration.

" Little radish , I am jealous. You now only praise your hanguang Jun. You don't care about this poor soul." Wei Wuxian complained like a child.

Lan Sizhui smiled . He knew his Wei gege very well.

Wei Wuxian also smiled . He was grateful of lan Wangji for bringing up A'yuan.

Then they both went towards the garden.

Lan Xichen when entered in library saw his younger brother focused on papers in front of him.

"Wangji ." Lan Xichen said getting his brother's attention.

" Xiongzhang." Lan Wangji said and stood up to greet lan Xichen.

" You are doing paper work." Lan Xichen said sitting in front of lan Wangji.

"Mn." Lan Wangji said.

Lan Xichen knew it's hard to initiate a conversation with his brother but in reality they never needed words . He always understood lan Wangji without any words.

" You are happy." Lan Xichen said.

Lan Wangji didn't said anything in response. Actually he had no need . His brother knew, lan  Wangji knew that.

" Show me your palm." Lan Xichen said.

Lan Wangji looked straight at his brother with stoic face.
Lan Xichen could see the question in his brother's eyes.

" Show me." Lan Xichen said again.

This time lan Wangji put his left hand forward,  palm towards the ceiling.

Lan Xichen brought something out from his wide sleeves and put on Lan Wangji's palm. After doing so he stood up.

Lan Wangji looked at his palm when he felt something cold on it.

"I found it beautiful. It remind me of you. So I bought." Lan Xichen said and left.

Lan Wangji stared at his brother's back and then at his palm. There was a jade tassel for his sword. It had a white dragon with some bluish glint .

Lan Wangji was staring it with poker face but his eyes , they held a look which was hard to comprehend.
