he does manage to let him go, quickly wiping his cheeks with his hand and trying to refigure what he needs to do for him now. his husband is a younger man - certainly not ready to be a husband. there's more that he can share with him...but slowly. there's still pain ahead of them that much he's sure of. but the sharing of it will be different. wei wuxian can give him all the time that he needs, wait for him as patiently as lan wangji waited for him.]
You still want to help me?
[he can't help but smile. it's so like lan wangji, any lan wangji. wei wuxian presses his lips together before nodding.]
