「It's Emperor's Smile! If I share a jar with you, can you pretend that you never saw me?"」 
Lan Wangji was dazed for a moment and got back immediately, "no... Not drinking..." Why would he dream like that in the middle of the day? Although the memory was so clear, he couldn't make any visual of the person standing before him in that memory. All he could see was the red ribbon flowing along with the raven locks on the wind and those bright mercurial eyes.
He looked at Wei Wuxian who had his mouth hung open at the thought, 'Who in his year never drank alcohol?'
"It's okay Mr. Wei.." Meng Yao said, "you don't have to drag...Ummm. Mr. Lan... Just don't drink much... Don't want to find you in the hospital again..." Then Meng Yao gave them a soft smile and walked away.
Wei Wuxian release a sigh of relief, and looked at him, "really Mr. Lan? You've never drunk alcohol in your life? Such a boring life you have..."
He glared at Wei Wuxian and started to walk after he picked loquats. "Hey!'"
Wei Wuxian grabbed his shoulder and an even more dangerous death glare was thrown at him by Lan Wangji, "don't touch me..." although the touch somewhat electrocuted him, he was able to remain as passive and cold as ever. 
Wei Wuxian gulped and slowly withdrew his hand away from him, "Then let's become friends, Mr. Lan!"
"Not close..." He answered.
"Arghhh! Mr. Lan! That's the purpose of being friends! To become close..." Wei Wuxian childishly pouted. Wangji looked at him as if he had gone insane. He knew the meaning of friends. However, a being like him cannot be too close to a mortal. So it's better to draw the distance even before it's crossed. He promised himself that the only person he'll be close with will be his son and no one else. "I'm avoiding people..."
It was Wei Wuxian's turn to raise his brow. He just remains as quiet and stern as he has always been. "Who in the world would avoid people Lan Zhan? It's the dumbest reason I've ever heard in my life..."
"Why?" he asked not looking at Wei Wuxian. He did not even realize he was called by his name.
"Who in the world would want to be alone?" 
"I'm not alone... There's Sizhui..." Wei Wuxian looked at him intently but the Lan Wangji refused to meet his gaze. The tension seemed to fill them.
"Mr. Lan can we continue this conversation somewhere... It's about Sizhui..." Wei Wuxian prompted.
Lan Wangji did not expect this kind of news. He was taken aback by this suddenness. He knew that Sizhui has always been excellent in everything he does. He couldn't ignore this kind of thing especially when it comes to home. His fatherly tendency naturally kicks in whenever it concerns his son. He can't help but nod and proceed to pay for his groceries. 
They went to a nearby cafe and ordered some treats. He can't seem to meet Wei Wuxian's eyes. Just staying with this man at the same pace made his heart pound so hard. He felt like choking and only answered with a simple nod. 
He's hurt... But at the same time, it's fulfilling... He felt so safe with just his presence... But he also felt like crying with the sorrow he was feeling.
It's as if the three thousand years of emptiness and oblivion were just a distant memory with this person's presence. 
"Sizhui... Was feeling down for almost a week..." Wei Wuxian started, "he was not cheerful these past days... When I was trying to call him he passed by me looking so distant and distracted... He almost fails one of his summative tests..."
