The journey of Emperor Donghua through time

Smoke rose from the kitchen, and soon the air was filled with an enticing spicy smell. Although it was a bit pungent, it was nostalgic.

“Boiled fish!” Wei Wuxian stood up excitedly, walked quickly to the stove, and peered into the pot.

“It smells so good! Lan Zhan, you actually know how to make boiled fish, that’s amazing!” Wei Wuxian was very happy to see that there was really boiled fish in the pot. It had been a long time since he had eaten this long-lost taste. He really missed it!

“Not bad.” Lan Wangji was very happy to be praised. Knowing that Wei Wuxian liked spicy food, he specially went to the restaurant that Wei Wuxian liked to go to when he was studying in Gusu and spent a lot of money to learn from the chef.

“Lan Zhan, I didn’t expect you can really cook. When did you learn it?” Wei Wuxian didn’t leave, but stood beside and watched eagerly.

“You don’t like Lan’s food.” Lan Wangji’s eyes were a little vague, and he was embarrassed to look at him.

“Are you learning this just because I don’t like your food?” Wei WuXian was very surprised.

“Yeah.” Lan Wangji turned his head away shyly.

“Lan Zhan, you are so nice! I like you so much!” Wei Wuxian was very touched. He never thought that the ethereal Lan Wangji would learn to cook just because he couldn’t get used to the food in Cloud Recesses.

"Lan Zhan, when did you start to like me?" Wei Wuxian was very curious about this question.

After all, when they were in school, Lan Wangji ignored him and looked like he hated him. Even after they went through some things together, his attitude didn't change much, not to mention that when he was practicing the ghost way, he was emotionally unstable, and Lan Wangji always told him that this way was harmful to the body and the mind, so the two of them almost always quarreled when they met. It was really hard to tell from Lan Wangji's attitude towards him that he liked him!

“I don’t know.” Lan Wangji himself couldn’t clearly explain when he started to like Wei Wuxian.

Maybe it was when his headband was removed during the Jinling competition, or maybe it was when I was studying, or maybe it was when we first met under the moonlight; it’s hard to tell. I don’t know where the love came from, but it’s so deep.

“How could you not know?” Wei Wuxian expressed his disbelief. How could he not know if he liked someone?

"Then when did you fall in love with me?" Lan Wangji asked back.

Wei Wuxian was stunned. It seemed that the moment he saw Lan Wangji, he wanted to provoke him. He was not afraid of his cold face and always liked to get close to him. Could it be that he had fallen in love with this old-fashioned guy so early?

“Ah~, this…” Wei Wuxian didn’t know what to say for a moment. If he told Lan Wangji that he liked him from the beginning, the old-fashioned guy would definitely say that he was not reserved! How embarrassing!

“You must have liked me first. After all, I’m so handsome, lively and funny. Everyone liked me when I was in school!” Wei Wuxian had a stubborn look on his face, as if he would lose if he admitted that he liked the other person first.

“Yes, you are right.” Lan Wangji nodded in agreement.

Lan Wangji quickly prepared four dishes and a soup, found a large tray, put everything on it, and took it out. "Bring the bowls and chopsticks over, you can eat now."

“Okay!” Upon hearing that it was time to eat, Wei Wuxian quickly picked up his bowl and chopsticks and happily followed Lan Wangji.

The two came to the Buddha bell tree and placed the food on the table, "Wei Ying, go and call the Emperor to eat."

"Okay! I'll be back soon." Wei Wuxian ran excitedly towards Emperor Donghua's residence.

“Slow down, there’s no rush.” Before he finished speaking, Wei Wuxian had already run away at a rapid pace. Lan Wangji looked at his receding back with some helplessness.
