Chapter Text
" Tomorrow, I 'll confess to Lan Zhan, Lan Wangji, the baby of my life!" Wei Ying announced to his and Lan Zhan's friends.
Jiang Cheng gagged then said " Finally! I'm so done with your pining" and rolled his eyes.
"That's great. I thought you'll continue to be oblivious for the rest of your life." Wen Qing
" Hey!"
" Good luck Wei xiong!" Nie Huaisang
" Do your best in facing the challenge Wei Ying!" Qingyang said looking quite mischievous than usual as she looked at Wen Qing and Wen Qing looked back at her. It looks like they're communicating with their eyes which is quite odd but Wei Ying chose to ignore it and just smiled widely like an idiot.
~~~~~
Wei Ying slumped down on his bedroom floor.
" Ui Wei Ying what happened? Got rejected or something? Hahaha" Jiang Cheng
" No, but I might as well be!" Wei Ying said looking pitiful.
Qingyang and Wen Qing laughed.
" Why what happened Wei xiong?" Huaisang said while Wei Ying narrowed his eyes at the two women with them.
" You knew about it don't you? "
" Don't say I didn't warn you Wei Ying haha"
" Just what happened?"
" Lan Zhan said yes. That she likes me too. We're together now but with one condition"
" What is it?"
" No kissing on the lips! Silly idiot me pretended to be okay with it and agreed!" Wei Ying said pouting.
The girls laughed again and the others joined them.
" I see now what you mean by the challenge Qingyang. Sigh. I thought it was about me confessing. Turns out it was the condition."
" Well. Lan Zhan's been inlove with you for years. Of course you confessing to her is not much of a challenge."
Wei Ying light up upon what he heard.
" Really? Why didn't you tell me then?! Nevermind that. What I want to know right now, is the reason of this condition she set on our relationship. She didn't even tell me a deadline... Wait does this mean I can never get to kiss her?! Oh no!" he said looking more miserable than before.
" What a pity Wei xiong hahaha"
" If you'll just be patient Wei Ying, you will know the reason one day. That is, if you are willing to endure and that you love her, more than your want to kiss her..."
~~~~
It's been a week since they started their relationship. Wei Ying the CEO is currently in his office cracking his brain thinking of the reason why Lan Zhan would set this condition.
They met five years ago when Lan Zhan applied for the secretary position in his company. He hired her instantly because she's over qualified and also because she 's stunningly beautiful for her own good.
As she works for him, they became friends along with it. He thought as friends, the two of them don't have any secrets but then he found out today that Qingyang and Qing jie knew something very important about her. He felt quite betrayed and he pouted.
A knock woke him up from his reverie.
" Come in. "
He smiled from his pouting as he saw the person coming towards him.
" Sir, here are the documents you need to sign today."
" Thank you, Lan Zhan! But didn't I told you you don't need to knock? Also not to call me sir when were alone!"
She shook her head.
" Be professional. "
" Aiyo Lan zhan! Please babyyy" Wei Ying said looking at her pouting.
Lan Zhan sighed ears blushing at what Wei Ying called her.
" Fine. Wei Ying."
He grinned standing up and walk round his table towards Lan Zhan.
" There! That isn't so hard isn't it?" He then hugged her waist pulling her close to him.
" Wei Ying were at work."
" I know! Can't I hug my baby? Don't tell me 'no hugging' is added in the condition? Then what's next ? ' no touching' ? No way! " Wei Ying said drammatically and put his face on her shoulders for further drama effect.
Lan Zhan huffed and hugged Wei Ying back.
" Ridiculous. "
" That's me! Hahaha"
~~~~~
Weeks pass by and Wei Ying is finding it difficult to restrain himself from kissing Lan Zhan. Most especially when he sees her sleeping, unguarded. Or when their face are close when speaking or merely staring into each others eyes.
He wants to be selfish. But at the same time, he feels like he's being tested somehow and he doesn't want to mess up and fail. Funny, he thought. His situation feels like when Psyche was restricted from seeing her husbands face. He should be thankful. At least he can see Lan Zhan, hug her and kiss her. Just not on the lips.

6 months later....
💪💘💘MayIkissLan ZhanAsap💘💘💪
Qluomian: Congrats Wei Ying!
Qwenjie: You passed. Congrats! Don't mess it up.
Thesuitor'swei: ❓❗
Qluomian: 😶
Qwenjie: 😶
Thesuitor'swei: 😣
Wei Ying sighed at his phone and decided to sleep after texting Lan zhan goodnight and I love you.
~~~~~
In the morning, Wei Ying dressed up for a date with Lan Zhan. It's their day off today.
He drove towards Lan Zhan's apartment to fetch her. They're going to a botanical garden today. Their destination date since they both like gardening in their spare time.
As he arrived at her apartment he honked and went out from his car. He leaned his back on his car facing Lan Zhan's apartment smiling all the while. A few seconds, Lan Zhan's door opened revealing a Lan Zhan wearing a very short sky blue dress. Her long legs on display.
Wei Ying gulped and scowled at what he saw. He came close towards Lan Zhan.
" Baby, you're lovely and all but I can't let you go out showing your beautiful legs for all to see." Wei Ying whispered in her ear. Lan Zhan's ears went red.
"I apologize. I.."
" Let's come inside first." Wei Ying said as he saw the boys who passed by looked at Lan Zhan. He scowled even more.
They went inside the apartment and Wei Ying close the door.
" Lan Zhan, you don't usually wear something this short. Did someone gave you this? Qingyang or Qing jie"
" I...bought it myself" she said looking away.
" Huh why?"
" For a change and just want to look good for you. Didn't expect you wont like it. Apologies."
Wei Ying's heart went soft.
" Lan Zhan. You dont need to change. I love you the way you are. It's not that I dont like it. It's just that, I don't want anyone else to see your pretty legs. I should be the only one to see it hahaha"
Lan Zhan relaxed as she heard Wei Ying laughed.
" Also. I want you to value yourself. Like what you always do. That's one thing about you that made me fall in love with you. "
Lan Zhan felt touched by what he said and smiled a bit at him.
" Mn. Alright. I'll go change. "
As Lan Zhan went upstairs to change, Wei Ying went to the kitchen and drink cold water. He needs to calm his sexual hormones which has gone haywire when he saw Lan Zhan earlier before it goes out of control.
~~~~~~
They arrived at the botanical garden and are currently walking around while speaking with each other. Lan Zhan is wearing an above the knee dark blue dress.
Wei Ying stopped walking and picked a yellow flower close to him then put it on Lan Zhan's ear.
" It suits you. So beautiful. " He said grinning at Lan Zhan. Lan Zhan looked away ears blushing. Wei Ying chuckled.
" Thank you."
" You're welcome baby."
Then they continued to walk around.
As they reach the most beautiful part of the garden, they are alone. Lan Zhan paused and looked at the beautiful gentian flowers.
" Wei Ying, may I tell you a story?"
" Oh I'd love to! Let's hear it then "
" There was once a young girl in her teenage years who vowed to kiss the only man she would marry. "
" Hmm. Interesting! She's quite romantic! Go on" Wei Ying said looking at Lan Zhan who is still looking at the flowers as she spoke.
"In order to achieve this, she would test the man she's in a relationship with. To see if he has the potential of becoming her husband in the near future.
The test is quite difficult therefore they would give up in a short amount of time.
As time passes by, she's close to giving up the vow she made for herself. She thought, maybe she's just getting ahead of herself."
" Oh no! "
" Mn. But thankfully, her friends will encourage her to keep going. That if they can't pass the test, then they don't deserve to be with her. "
" That's right! I agree with her friends. But wait Lan zhan, what is the test she would give them? "
Lan Zhan's eyes moved towards Wei Ying beside her. Her face still facing the flowers.
" She would put a condition in their relationship. A condition of 'no kissing on the lips'."
" Oh! But of course that would be the test hahah. Quite difficult indeed. The condition sounds familiar though..." he replied, murmuring the last part looking thoughtful.
" Mn. Then one day, after years of waiting for the next candidate, there a man came and attempted the impossible."
" How nice! What 's next then?"
" She would propose to him for marriage. Like this" Lan Zhan suddenly faced Wei Ying holding a small red velvet box. She then knelt down on one knee in front of him. Wei Ying looks confused his brows frowning.
" Wei Ying, you have no idea how happy I am when you confessed to me. Even more so when you didn't give up on me like the others did. You attempted the impossible and endured."
" Wait Lan Zhan, are you saying you're that young girl.."
Lan Zhan nodded.
" Mn. " Lan Zhan raised the small red velvet box and opened it.
" I love you so much. Want you to be the only one for me."
" Wait Lan Zhan! I should be the one doing this!" Wei Ying said with teary eyes. Lan Zhan smiled a bit.
" Doesn't matter. Wei Ying Wei Wuxian, would you do me the honor of becoming your wife and marry me?"
Wei Ying smiled widely shaking his head with disbelief.
~~~~~~
" Okay, so apparently Lan Zhan would tell them everything after 6 months of being in the relationship."
" For the one who can endure.Yes. And out of the few relationships, Lan Zhan had, you're the only one who passed the test. Congrats again."
" Yeah right. But that doesn't mean I can kiss her now! I still have to wait until were on the altar for our first kiss" Wei Ying said pouting while stirring his coffee.
" In a hurry are we? You've already endured for 6 months. Another 6 months would be nothing to you hahaha"
" Arghh. You have no idea how hard I tried. How does Lan Zhan endure this kind of thing? Or is it that she's just not as eager to kiss me as I want to kiss her. " Wei Ying said, his face looking sad.
The two women looked at each other and thought, since Wei Ying is also their friend and their employer, they might as well be generous to him.
" Actually Wei Ying there's something you need to know....."
~~~~~~~
Lan Zhan is typing on her office when she suddenly heard her office door open and being shut loudly. She stopped instantly and stood up. It was Wei Ying. His face is blank as he walks towards her. Lan Zhan rounded her table to go to him.
" Wei Ying what happe..." Lan Zhan paused as she was hugged tightly.
A few moments, she suddenly felt Wei Ying shaking.
" Wei Ying. Okay? Wei..." she asked worriedly but went silent again as Wei Ying suddenly laughed out loud.
Lan Zhan is becoming really worried about him right now.
" Wei Ying."
" Hahaha aiya Lan Zhan my baby. Haha" He said trying to pull away from Lan Zhan but failed.
Lan Zhan frowned some more.
" Come Wei Ying. Let's sit first. " Lan Zhan said dragging a laughing Wei Ying towards the sofa. Then they sat on the sofa.
" Hahaha. Okay just a sec." Wei Ying said putting his head on Lan Zhan's shoulder still hugging her.
" Alright so I discovered something today. From Qingyang and Qing jie." Wei Ying said smiling widely and pulled away from Lan Zhan to look at her.
" Mn. What is it?" She asked looking at him.
" I discovered a secret. During the team building last year.. When I decided to put on a blindfold..."
Lan Zhan went tense and suddenly stood up but Wei Ying pulled her back making her sit down again. He held her so that she can't get away from him.
" Ah ah. Not so fast baby. So due to being so tired from running to and fro I decided to rest on a certain tree and put on a blindfold because I want to block the suns afternoon rays. As I was close to sleeping, someone came and took advantage of my vulnerability and kisse..." Lan Zhan tried to struggle on his hold but Wei Ying is stronger so she can't do anything but stay and looked anywhere but at Wei Ying.
" Kissed me. I tried to struggle because I thought how dare they try to do that without my permission but then I noticed that they were shaking. So I decided to let them be. That person kissed me senseless to the point that my remaining strength left me. "
Lan Zhan closed her eyes tightly.
" Apologize. I.."
" Aiyo! I'm not done yet Lan Zhan! You're spoiling the fun!"
" If you want, I'll give you permission to kiss me back. Like what I did. Right now. " Lan Zhan said her eyes still closed.
Wei Ying sighed and smiled fondly at her.
" Really?! You will let me?" Wei Ying said pretending to be excited. Lan Zhan nodded her head.
" Okay! Here I go... " He said playfully. And move closer to her.
" Mn."
Then Wei Ying cupped her cheeks with both hands and went and kissed her forehead. Lan Zhan being shocked at what he did, opened her eyes and looked at him.
" Lan Zhan, I won't do it. Not now at least. Qingyang is right! I endured for 6 months, another 6 months will be nothing to me. Besides, you don't know this Lan Zhan but I really enjoyed the no kissing on the lips even when I'm suffering hahaha. Also, even though you have kissed me already, I still want you to be able to fulfill your vow of only kissing the one you'll marry."
Lan Zhan smiled a bit and hugged Wei Ying.
~~~~~~~
Their wedding day came. Wei Ying realized something during the wedding ceremony. He realized the truth that kissing on the mouth speaks of holy, married love. Solely shared between a husband and a wife. How else would kissing be a part of a wedding ceremony? Isn't it to seal a lifetime covenant between the married couple?
Also, as he kissed Lan Zhan on the altar, he can't help but be addicted and kissed her senseless. The one thing he didn't do when Lan Zhan gave him permission to kiss her.
And now, they are lying close to each other after a passionate lovemaking.
" Lan Zhan, what would you do if I gave up? If I didn't endure?" Wei Ying said carressing Lan Zhan's naked back. The two of them are covered with blanket.
" Pine for you. Till my life ends" Wei Ying smiled giddily then kissed Lan Zhan's head.
" Lan Zhan! Warn a man would you! But...isn't it unfair for you? You should go ahead! Find another man and test them."
" Told you. Want you to be the only one for me. From the moment I met you. Till now. Onwards. "
" Lan Zhan! "
She sighed.
" Wish I have found you sooner."
"Okay Lan Zhan! That's eno..."
" That way, you would be my first and my las.....mmmp"
Wei Ying shut Lan zhan by kissing her. Because when Lan Zhan starts to say those kind of words to him, it can really be too much for him to take sometimes.
