Jiang Fengmian and his wife, who were far away in the Lotus Pier, were confused when they saw the Lan family's direct disciple respectfully handing over Qingheng Jun's invitation, inviting them to go to the Cloud Recesses to discuss important matters.

But they couldn't ask the Lan family's disciples anything, so they could only fly their swords towards the Cloud Recesses with a confused look on their faces.

------------------------

In the evening, Zimu thought that with Jiang Fengmian and Yu Ziyuan's personalities, there would be something exciting to watch as early as tomorrow afternoon, so it would be difficult for him to have the mood to give special treatment to Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng sat aside with his arms folded across his chest, his brows furrowed and his face full of displeasure.

Wei Wuxian hung his head, playing with a blade of grass in his hand with a dazed look on his face. The two of them looked like eggplants hit by frost, having lost their former vitality.

Just when I was thinking about whether I should ask someone to call Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji to come and eat together, I heard two footsteps coming from outside the yard.

The footsteps were steady and powerful with a unique rhythm. A moment later, two familiar figures appeared at the gate of the yard.

"Zi Mu, Young Master Jiang, Young Master Wei." Lan Xichen's voice was as gentle as jade, making people feel comfortable like a spring breeze. At this moment, there was a hint of apology on his face and concern in his eyes.

"Wei Ying, Miss Jiang, Mr. Jiang." Lan Wangji's voice was still as cold as ice, but with a different kind of tenderness.

After greeting Zimu and Jiang Cheng, he fixed his eyes on Wei Wuxian.

His eyes were focused and fervent, as if Wei Wuxian was the only existence in his world.

No matter how thick-skinned he was, Wei Wuxian felt embarrassed by Lan Wangji’s stare: “Lan Zhan, stop staring at me like that. It makes me feel embarrassed.”

Wei Wuxian's face flushed, and there was a hint of shyness in his eyes. He scratched his head, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Tsk... Haha, you, Wei Wuxian, would feel embarrassed too. I'm dying of laughter." Jiang Cheng laughed loudly, and his laughter was full of sarcasm.

After Jiang Cheng finished laughing, he looked at the Gusu twins with disdain: "But, what are you doing here?" Jiang Cheng's tone was full of hostility, as if these two people were uninvited guests.

"A Cheng" When Zi Mu saw Lan Xichen, his heart beat faster unconsciously, but Zi Mu was helpless about Jiang Cheng's strong hostility and could only look at Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji apologetically.

Lan Xichen looked at Jiang Cheng’s still tense face, knowing that his worry and dissatisfaction had not completely dissipated.

He straightened his expression slightly and said sincerely: "Mr. Jiang, I know that what happened last night was my and Wangji's fault. We, the Lan family, will definitely take due responsibility."

Jiang Cheng raised his head, staring straight at Lan Xichen, and snorted, "Take responsibility? That's easy to say, but how are you, the Lan family, going to take responsibility? What about my sister and Wei Wuxian's reputation?"

"My father has already sent people to Yunmeng. Sect Master Jiang and Madam Jiang will arrive at the Cloud Recesses in the next two days. If the two elders and Young Master Wei are willing, our Gusu Lan Clan will go to Yunmeng to propose marriage soon."

"Regarding the reputation issue, we have already properly handled it and will never allow Zimu and Master Wei to be slandered in the slightest. The disciples near the ancestral hall today are all direct descendants of the Lan family. Father and uncle have also strictly prohibited this matter from being spread wantonly by the outside world. Please rest assured, Master Jiang."

Lan Xichen's eyes were firm and serious when he spoke. They were like bright stars, shining brightly, making people trust his words more.

Jiang Cheng frowned, obviously not completely satisfied with this answer, but did not refute it immediately. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, as if he was thinking about the credibility of Lan Xichen's words.

Lan Xichen continued, “Besides, Wangji and I will personally explain the whole story to Sect Master Jiang and Madam Jiang, and will never implicate Zimu and Young Master Wei.”

His words were full of sincerity and responsibility, making people feel his sense of responsibility as an elder brother.

Wei Wuxian, who was originally worried about getting beaten, suddenly brightened up after hearing Lan Xichen's words, as if a beam of light suddenly appeared in the darkness.

However, he felt uncomfortable at the thought of Lan Wangji getting beaten.

Wei Wuxian's eyes changed in an instant, sometimes full of hope, sometimes full of worry.

His eyes flickered from time to time, which naturally did not escape Lan Wangji's attention: "Wei Ying, don't worry."

Lan Wangji's voice was cold and gentle, like a clear spring in the mountains. Wei Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then his usual heartless smile appeared on his face again: "Okay"

"Jiang Cheng, don't be angry. Why don't you wait until Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang come to the Cloud Recesses and discuss it with Qing Heng Jun and Mr. Lan before you make a decision."

Jiang Cheng glared at Wei Wuxian and said, "Shut up!"

"I am obviously the same as my senior sister, Jiang Cheng, why do you always criticize me?" Xianxian is unhappy and feels wronged. Xianxian is unhappy and feels wronged, and feels that he is treated differently by Jiang Cheng.

"How can it be the same? She's my sister." Jiang Cheng's tone was full of protection for Zimu.

Wei WuXian responded unyieldingly: “Then I am also your senior brother.”

“Ha…” Jiang Cheng felt that he was almost mad at Wei Wuxian, his heartless senior brother. Who was he doing this for?

My sister will get married sooner or later, and Lan Xichen is the best candidate, so it doesn’t matter if she marries Lan Xichen.

"So Wei Wuxian, do you really think it's an honor to marry yourself off?"

Wei WuXian suddenly remembered what he had said before and quickly shook his head: “Absolutely not.”

Before Lan Wangji could even feel disappointed, he heard Wei Wuxian's next words: "If anyone is going to get married, it should be Lan Zhan."

"it is good"

"Hmm?" Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng looked at Lan Wangji at the same time. Even Lan Xichen and Zimu felt as if they knew something extraordinary.

"Lan Zhan, well, I'm just saying that it wouldn't sound good if two grown men like us got married."

"I don't mind." Lan Wangji bowed to Zimu and asked, "Miss Jiang, can I have a few words with Wei Ying alone?"

"Ah? Okay, Xian, calculate the time and come back for dinner later."

"Okay, Xianxian loves Senior Sister the most."

Zimu: Um...Second Master Lan, you see I’m useless, really.
