"Zewu Jun, can we chat?"

"Of course, Master Jiang and Master Wei, would you like to sit in the cold room for a while?"

"Um"

After entering Lan Xichen's yard, Jiang Cheng snorted coldly before Lan Xichen could say anything polite.

He found a place to sit in the guest room and stared straight at Lan Xichen: "Zewu-jun, let's stop beating around the bush. Wei Wuxian and I saw how you got along with my sister today. Just tell me straight, do you like my sister?"

Lan Xichen was slightly stunned; he didn’t expect Jiang Cheng to be so direct.

He did have feelings for Zimu, but he hadn't fully expressed these feelings yet, at least he hadn't said it in person or in the subtitles. Now that Jiang Cheng asked him so bluntly, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Zewu Jun, you know that Senior Sister is very important to us. We can't just watch her get hurt. If you are just acting on impulse, you'd better give up as soon as possible."

Lan Xichen sighed softly, sorted out his thoughts, and slowly said, "Master Jiang, Master Wei, my feelings for Zimu are not just a whim."

“Zi Mu…” Lan Xichen was warned by his sinister brother-in-law’s eyes before he could finish his words, so he changed his words and said, “Miss Zi Mu is a very special woman. Her kindness, intelligence, courage, and high level of cultivation all deeply attract me.”

Jiang Cheng frowned and said, "Zewu Jun, you are the head of the Lan family and you have a noble status. Although our Yunmeng Jiang family is among the top five aristocratic families, it is not as good as your Lan family. But our Yunmeng Jiang family is not easy to bully."

“Of course. Everyone in the cultivation world knows that my Gusu Lan clan only seeks destined people. I understand Mr. Jiang’s concerns, and I ask Mr. Jiang to believe me.” Lan Xichen said this without even swearing to the heavens.

Jiang Cheng also thought of the ancestor of the Gusu Lan family, who entered the world for one person. There was indeed such a rule in the Lan family rules.

"Zewu Jun's heart is fickle. If you really like my elder sister, then that's fine. But if you have other ideas, I, Jiang Cheng, will be the first one to not let you go."

"And me."

"I can't forget you. Sister treats you the best."

"That's right, who asked me to find someone to be rare?"

Wei WuXian scratched his head and said, “Zewu-Jun, Jiang Cheng and I didn’t mean to embarrass you. Even though we know that Senior Sister is very powerful, we are still afraid that she will be deceived.”

"I understand what Master Wei said, and I will naturally understand your concerns."

"Zewu Jun, you said you were sincere, so how do you plan to treat my senior sister?"

Lan Xichen said seriously, "I will respect her wishes and accompany her through every moment of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. Whether facing difficulties or joy, I hope to walk hand in hand with her."

"What if my sister doesn't like you?"

Lan Xichen obviously hadn't thought about this possibility, but now that Wei Wuxian had said it, he felt uncomfortable whenever he thought about Zimu not being with him.

"Then I will wait until Zimu likes me, and I will use my actions to let her feel my sincerity."

Jiang Cheng studied Lan Xichen's expression, as if trying to determine the truth of his words.

After a while, he said, "Zewu Jun, I hope you can remember what you said today. If you dare to make my elder sister sad, our Yunmeng Jiang Sect will never let it go."

Lan Xichen bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Don't worry, Master Jiang. I will keep it in mind."

Wei WuXian patted Jiang Cheng on the shoulder and said, “Okay, Jiang Cheng, I don’t think Ze Wu-Jun is lying, so let’s not make it too hard on him. After all, when it comes to relationships, it’s up to them to see how they develop on their own.”

Jiang Cheng snorted and said, "I hope so. Zewu-jun, it's getting late, you should go to bed early."

After saying that, he pulled Wei Wuxian and turned away.

"Brother Lan, please go to bed early. Jiang Cheng and I will take our leave now."

When Lan Xichen heard Wei Wuxian change his address and Jiang Cheng did not say anything to stop him, he knew that he had to pay his respects to the other two brothers-in-law for the time being.

After watching Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng leave, Lan Xichen sat at his desk, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

His mind kept replaying every move of Zimu since he had briefly met her, as well as the warning words just now from Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian.

Even these two people could see what he was thinking, so how could Zimu, who is so smart, not sense it at all?

So what does Zimu think?

On the other side, Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian were walking on the road. Jiang Cheng's face was still a little gloomy, and his footsteps seemed a little heavy, as if every step was filled with resentment.

"Jiang Cheng, don't think too much. I think Brother Lan really likes Senior Sister. We all know what kind of person he is. He won't treat Senior Sister badly."

Wei Wuxian walked while tilting his head to look at Jiang Cheng, trying to persuade him.

“Humph, Lan Xichen is the head of the Gusu Lan Clan. With his status and position, who knows if he will change his mind in the future. I can’t let my sister suffer any injustice.”

Jiang Cheng crossed his arms, narrowed his eyes slightly, and showed a stubbornness. He was like a hedgehog with its hair blown up, exuding a vigilant aura all over his body, and he was stubborn and refused to accept the defeat.

“You are just too worried about your senior sister, like an old hen protecting her cubs.” Wei Wuxian shook his head helplessly, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Hey, Wei Wuxian, aren't you worried about Sister?"

Jiang Cheng suddenly stopped and stared at Wei Wuxian with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, as if blaming Wei Wuxian for not caring.

“Let’s not talk about anything else for now. Just look at Senior Sister’s temper and cultivation level. Is she someone who would let herself be wronged?” Wei Wuxian also stopped and spread his hands, his eyes full of confidence.

He knew his senior sister too well. She was like a burning flame, passionate and powerful, not the kind of weak woman who would be bullied by others.

"Too."

Jiang Cheng lowered his head slightly, thinking about what Wei Wuxian said, and had to admit that he made sense.

Zi Mu has always had a straightforward temper, and her cultivation is also among the best among the younger generation. It is really not an easy thing to make her suffer any grievances.

"Right, your explanation is too much. Instead of worrying about Senior Sister, you should worry about Brother Lan. I don't think he can beat Senior Sister. What do you think?"

Wei Wuxian raised his eyebrows, a sly light flashing in his eyes. He imagined the scene of Zimu and Lan Xichen sparring, and couldn't help laughing.

“That’s true.” Jiang Cheng imagined the scene and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

He seemed to see Lan Xichen being beaten back step by step by Zimu, and the anger in his heart caused by worrying about Zimu also dissipated a little.

However, he quickly regained his serious expression: "But this doesn't mean that Lan Xichen can be with Sister without any worries. I still have to keep an eye on him."

"Brother Lan, if you are worried, then who do you trust? Jin Zixuan?"

"Jin Zixuan? That Peacock? How could my sister like him? He might as well be browsing Xichen."

"That's it. Senior sister will get married eventually. Okay, junior sister, stop being so mad and go back to sleep."

"Go away, don't call me Junior Sister."

"I do not."
