'Everyone welcome Lan Wangji and Su Minshan.' The host says. The director directs Lan wangji and Su Minshan to walk in. Both look at the camera and nod. Lan Wangji's face is more serious and hot like ghat but Su Minshan looks as though he wants to smile but can't
The crowd cheers at Lan Wangji and some even scream "Marry Me" or "You're so hot". Su Minshan as a new actor building his own company waves at a small gaggle of people his manager Jin Guangyao hired as fans. They scream praises at him and he barely manages to hold back a smug smile before looking at Lan Wangji who is approaching the seat closest to the host.
Su Minshan knows that if he will not show up in the photos if he sits behind Lan Wangji. So he sits in the seat before Lan Wangji chooses it. The host expresses a slight grimace before smiling at him. Lan Wangji tilts his head as a smile and takes the next seat smelling of Sandalwood, Cinnamon and citrus.
'So Lan Wangji it is heard that you have a new song coming out.'
'Mn. It will be added to my album but it is called Reflection.'
'Can you tell us about it?'
'Reflection talks about what see my self as verses what other see me as. The descriptions of my self are monotone while others exaggerate my flaws.' He explained and the audience made "ahhs" and "ohhs" while the host nodded.
'I understand what you mean by that. I know that this song would be as great as your latest. Let us take a break and we will talk more about their upcoming movies.' Su Minshan looks at the crowd and nods like Lan Wangji who is normally stoic. Lan Wangji nods slightly to the crowd then to the host and Su Minshan. The host beams at his manners while Su Minshan of course sneers. The host tells some news that was completely boring then turns back to them.
'Su Minshan in the new series Hanguang Jun and Yiling Laozu, you play an antagonist. How do you feel about that specific role?' The host leans forward wear a face of interest but it was clear that it was a face expression.
'I enjoyed that role and despite being a character many will hate. I enjoyed it especially when I learned from my role and from my coworkers like Jin Guangyao and more.' He said with a smile causing an uproar of screams and praises from his paid fans.
'That is wonderful. Isn't Jin Guangyao so nice? Lan Wangji as your role Hanguang jun how do feel about being the main lead once again but also as the husband of Yiling Laozu played by Wei Wuxian and How do you feel about LGBTQ+ term?' The host an obvious shipper of Wangxian/ Wu Ji said with his eyes twinkling in excitement.
'I am great full that I managed to get the role. I support LGBTQ+ and do not mind playing the LGBTQ+ role. However there are some intimate parts in the series and I am not sure if it was played out well due to my awkwardness. I hope our fans find and found the series enjoyable.'
'I sure did. Next on the show we have......' As soon as it was over Lan Wangji and Su Minshan left the stage after shaking some lucky fans' hands. At the back stage Lan Wangji was thrown into his car and is forced to put on his clothes as off order from Wen Qing. Next to him sits Wei Wuxian ad his assistant Luo Qinyang.
'Hi. My outfit has kisses on it and I need help.' he says with a smirk. Lan Wangji leans and cups the back of his neck. Wei Wuxian smiles shyly and leans forward. Their nose touch and sent a jolt through his body. Impatient as he is Wei Wuxian whines and Lan Wangji huffs before he presses his lips on to him. they deepen the kiss by angling their heads. Wei Wuxian moans and puts his hands on his chest before they can continue Wei Wuxian is pulled away.
'Qing Jie~.' Wei Wuxian says with a pout.
'Shut up. A-Mian said that the kisses are supposed to go on your neck not your lips understand.' Wen Qing growls. Lan Wangji places chaste kisses on his neck letting the red lipstick that stain his lips from the earlier kiss stain Wei Wuxian's neck.
'Happy now. We won't see each other till the next three days because of my stupid music show and when we see each other it is at a stupid Gala.' Wei Wuxian grumbled but he left the van with a peck on Lan Wangji's lips. Luo Qinyang takes a wet wipes and starts smearing the lipstick on the side of his lips as though he was Pennywise. She takes eyeliner and lets it smear under his eyes as though he was crying. Luo Qinyang and Wen Qing kiss each other on the lips before walking away. Wen Qing told the driver Uncle Four to drive.
...........
As to his words the next time they meet is at a Gala filled with many celebrities and rich people who pay others to make the celebrities. Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji are know as rivals but now there are known as the the Rivals to friends to Lovers by their fans who call themselves Wang (Lan WANGji) and Xian (Wei WuXIAN) -Wangxian- their fans also bully producers to make a series of the two of them dating with many many many more intimate moments. Some fans even going far as to prove that they are in some relationship whether it be Friends with Benefits, boyfriends or just pining.
'Today we are going to watch the count down as Hanguang Jun and Yiling Laozu reaches 100 Million views in JUST Five weeks.' But as soon as that is said the view marks go straight to 101 Million Views. Everyone cheers and then walk around.
'Lan Wangji do you want a drink.' Wang Lingjiao asks batting her eyes at him. Just a few days ago she and Wen Chao broke up and now she wants to ask him for a drink. If he collects the drink then she talks and then she plays drunk to get him to touch her then she throws herself at him either making the We-are-dating move or the He-is-harassing-me move. He is about to refuse when another woman comes up to him.
'Lans do not drink.' She says. Now this one is Ouyang Chengxi the little sister of Ouyang zongzhu she is about to save him from her and from the side Lan Wangji ca see a man approaching with wine glasses which means he is supposed to save her by pretending to be her fried or worse her fiance as everyone knows she wishes to court him.
'Thank you. Excuse me.' Lan Wangji walks away very fast to the his uncle's company table only to see Yao zongzhu there. He sighs loudly as he sees him with a phone. No doubt he is trying to show off hi two daughters both two years too young to date him but still it is a topic brought up by his uncle multiple times only because his daughters are his fans since when he was that young boy who played piano for the guests.
More girls gentry or celebrity alike find themselves walking up to him and Lan Wangji feels angry. He is tired as the three days he went to fourteen different shows, he misses Wei Ying and wants to have a long sleep. So he makes himself to the bar and places down his drink. Turing back to see the girls dodging other people to walk to him he then drank everything down. The faint burn in his throat and then everything goes black after he heard the yell of his name.
....
Wei Wuxian is aware that his smile has taken a more strained look to people who know him. But who can reprimand him when the people who know him also know how hectic his schedule was all because of the new show. He looks around for Lan Zhan and see him dodge and walk straight to the bar to get rid of his suitors only to get the attention of two others. He sees him put down his drink on the desk and turn around to sigh at them. Only then does he see a woman who presses her lips to a glass of vodka then exchanges it with Lan Zhan's glass. When Lan Zhan turns around with a look of annoyance does Wei Wuxian realize what is going on.
'Lan Zhan!!' he yelled but is too late when Lan Wangji downs the glass and in seconds fall forward. Wei Wuxian is oh so very tired.
'Excuse my rudeness. Lan Xichen may I borrow you for a while.'
'Of course. I apologize. What is it Wuxian?' Lan Xichen says but has not moved at all.
'Alone please.'
'It is so important that not even your father may know.'
'Jin zonzghu. My father is dead ad has been dead for most of my life. Jiang Shu Shu is my uncle please do not make such a mistake again and yes it is very personal.'
'Surely you can say it here as we all are kind of family.' Nie Mingjue says not knowing the trouble he has made.
'You....' he says but is cut off by a voice.
'I think you are an annoying little worm who should be removed from your position!' Lan Wangji yells as he points a fork at Jin Zixun. Lan Xichen's eyes widened a fraction and Wei Wuxian rolls his eyes at that. The two make themselves through the crowd and too Lan Wangji.
'See I wasgoing to tell you. What if he says something else more than offensive and practically gets himself a scandal.'
'I do not believe that will happen but we will see to it.' They made it to the bar and Lan Wangji spots them. He waves at them and jumps off the chair landing in front of Wei Wuxian.
'You look beautiful tonight. No that is wrong you looks beautiful every night AND day.' He says.
'Why thank you. He how about we drink some water.'
'No they'll know my secret.' He whisper yells then pouts and Wei Wuxian is sure he is going to die from cuteness.
'Can I now the secret?'
'Yes Ge said that I'll turn into a merman.' He says and Wei Wuxian is wrong this is what he will die from.
'I said that when I five. A'Zhan please do not tell me that you have remembered all of that.'
'Ge does not lie. Wei Ying should sing. I like Wei Ying's voice when we..' Wei Wuxian puts a hand over his mouth to silence the less appropriate word that he will say. He pulls Wei Wuxian to the stage and stands with an air of dizziness.
'Everyone this one is Lan Zhan courtesy name Lan Wangji. Next to me is the most beautiful person in the entire world and I want to marry him.' he says in to the mike and everyone who doesn't know their relationship groans while the ones who know face palm themselves.
'Lan Zhan we are already married.' Wei Wuxian says so quietly only Lan Wangji hears and his eyes widened in glee.
'Never mind we were already married.' He says into the mike again.
'Lan Zhan!' he squaks and is about to lie to the people who already have out their celphones.
'I just remembered that Wei Ying said it was a secret so don't tell anyone.' Wei Wuxian swears his face will stay red permanently but the color lowers when people put away their phones. The shock only lasts a while until Lan Wangji grabs Wei Wuxian from by his very expensive, very limited edition, very favorite shirt by it's lapels and pulls him into a searing kiss. Wei Wuxian pushes back to deepen the kiss, his fists clenching Lan Wangji's shirt back. He nips at his top lip and rolls Wei Wuxian's bottom lip between his teeth. An arm rubs Wei Wuxian's back slowly creeping lower only when-
Just like that Lan Wangji is out and slowly exhausted and jet lagged Wei Wuxian followed.
.......
The next morning Lan Wangji woke up with a headache and searches the internet for what he did last night only to see sites stowing the winking emoji and at the bottow something written It's a secret. There is however a video sent to his phone by his brother who videoed everything. After the video with ears red Lan Wangi curls up with his husband sighing in content.
