[Wei Wuxian is quick to welcome his brother-in-law inside, despite a bit of mess and stray papers here and there with notes on his latest experiments and projects. He's not expecting a gift, and takes it with a rarely-seen surprised expression, before breaking into a wide smile.]
Ahh, that's- We will, we will absolutely enjoy them! These are perfect, thank you! Lan Zhan is going to be so excited!
[He'd approached the bidding with plenty of levity and his usual shamelessness, though he'd been both amused and surprised to see the twin jades bidding just as brazenly.
Wei Wuxian is quick to lead them both to a low-set table, a hastily thrown together tray of tea and snacks he'd had on-hand waiting for them.]
Have a seat, please! Haha, usually Lan Zhan handles this sort of thing, you'll have to forgive the lack of formality.
[He settles into a seat and remembers to pour for his guest, at least, though he's not as careful as Lan Zhan, and a drop or two falls on the table in the process.]
What's the occasion? Tea is fine and all, but I'm happy to grab something stronger.
[ There is the slightest hint of something like a sly gleam in his eyes at that surprised expression - he can't help but be just a little bit pleased that he managed to surprise him, especially when it seems it is a good surprise and it's followed by such a smile. ]
You are very welcome.
[ He follows Wuxian readily to the table, taking a seat as well and giving him a smile when he excuses the informality. ]
There is nothing to forgive.
[ If anything, it reminds him of one of the reasons that he is fond of Wuxian - how his antics at Cloud Recesses so many years ago had sunk under Wangji's skin, and had always made Lan Xichen have to hide his smile. ]
Ah - I think I had best stick with tea. [ The handful of times he had inadvertently had alcohol - or something like it - here or back at the hotel had produced nothing but rather embarrassing results for him, after all. Particularly with what he is here to talk about, since he suspects Wuxian has had more than enough of the manner of conversation on that subject that intoxicated Lan Xichen thinks is appropriate. ] I wanted to speak to you about Wanyin.
