《A Different Kind Of Love [XianWang]》3

"To be honest, when we first landed here. I thought we were gonna have a hard time finding a place to stay and how we were gonna fit in. I'm still shocked at the fact we got somewhere to rest in just a few hours!" Lan Wangji excitedly chirped as he and the other Lyxion walked beside him with one of his hands in his pocket.

"I was surprised, too. I'm glad you helped Mrs. Luo find her daughter. If not, we would've been out in the streets." Lan Xichen patted the man's head as he grabbed the keys to the apartment, unlocking it.

"I mean, we could still sleep in our tubes, but the problem will have the most in food and hydration. We're only half robotic. We still need food and water." Lan Wangji stepped inside the apartment, taking his shoes off and put on the fluffy slippers Mrs. Luo, the woman they met a couple of days, gave him. They were adorable pink bunny slippers! He couldn't resist them!

Lan Xichen just smiled at him and looked around. The apartment was given to them about a week ago in exchange for them working at the milk tea shop. They didn't complain because they badly needed a place to stay if they were gonna continue this mission. The owner, Mrs. Luo, full name Luo Qingjing, checked on them daily the past week to see how they were coping up and to bring them food. She was a nice lady and was pretty wealthy. Not to mention her daughter, which Lan Xichen found funny that his little Didi called her a mini human, came along and usually played with them, especially Lan Wangji.

Back the apartment, it wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. Mrs. Luo said she bought this apartment, so she could rent it to other people to earn profits. She decorated the apartment very simple as the two said they didn't need anything fancy. The place had two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room, a kitchen with an island between the kitchen and the living room which they used for dining, and a small balcony.

Mrs. Luo spent so much money on the furnitures, gadgets and even a lot on their clothes. She was into fashion and knew exactly what kind of clothes fit the boys, so she went around the mall and found them plenty of good high quality clothes which looked perfect on them.

Both the Lyxions were very shocked at how kind she was. She was willing to spend so much money on two people she didn't even know that well. One of them just found her daughter for her and she gave them an apartment as well as endless food supply, hydration and clothes? She was a very sweet woman.

"Gege, ever since we came here, I've always wondered who lives across from us." Lan Wangji commented as he pointed over to the dark grey door before them with the numbers 505 on it.

There were six flats in each floor and it was a very tall and big apartment building, but Lan Wangji never cared much about the other four flats. He was only focusing on the flat across from them.

"Why is that?" Lan Xichen asked as he closed the door and went to sit down on the soft light grey couch.

"Mrs. Luo said the apartment belongs to someone who is a very rich person and very attractive too." The blonde haired Lyxion went to sit on oval shaped ball chair near the couch. It was white on the outside and baby blue on the inside.

He lifted two fingers up and a green glow appeared. A pillow on the couch began having the same green sparkling glow around it and it floated up, coming to the young Lyxion's embrace.

"If you wanna know, how about we go say hi?" Lan Xichen exclaimed as his system appeared on his command. He tapped on the screen, searching for stuff as Lan Wangji stared at him, hugging the pillow.

"It says here humans usually give their new neighbors gifts as a welcoming to the new neighborhood. Even though we're the new neighbors, I don't think it would hurt to make friends, right? It says friends are important in one's lifetime." Lan Xichen told the younger as he continued to scroll through the screen, typing in words here and there.

"That doesn't sound bad. What should we get them?" Said Lan Wangji excitedly as he got off the cfair and went to sit next to the older Lyxion.

He put his chin on the other's shoulder, eyes looking over to the screen. Lan Xichen chuckled at his cute little gesture and put his head on the younger's, making the little guy giggled.

"Hm, these gifts don't look very good." The older pouted before he thought of something. He pulled his head away from the younger and turned to him, "Wangji, remember when Mrs. Luo made chocolate cupcakes for us?"

Lan Wangji nodded, "Yes. It was only yesterday."

Lan Xichen snickered, "I scanned the ingredients which she used and how she made them. They're perfectly engraved in my system. I believe we still have the ingredients. How about we make it?"

The younger nodded again as he found it a great idea, "Yes!"

The older smiled and he started to look through the cabinets and through the fridge, "How about I just do everything? Wangji, you should start looking for Prince Lan Jingyi and Lan Sizhui's locations again. We going to have to go out and search for them again like we did during the night last week."

Lan Wangji agreed. Although they had no luck in finding them the past week, it wouldn't hurt to search for their locations again. Who knows? Maybe they'll have a better chance today.

The same blue transparent screen appeared and he started to work on it, typing in some words and pressing the search location button. He then started to work on finding them once more. He hoped he could find them this time. The queen would be so glad to see her sons again, so they needed to find them asap.

*・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・'(*゚▽゚*)'・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・*

"When you first moved here, you never talk to your neighbors. During the time when I wasn't around, did you finally talk to them?" Jiang Wanyin asked as he settled himself down on the marbled island between the kitchen and the living room.

"Never had the time." Wei Wuxian replied as he poured the ham and mushroom carbonara from the pan onto a dinner plate before planting it on the island filled with other foods he made.

"That can't be the real reason. You don't work on Sundays, Gege. Plus, there are holidays where you can't work, so surely you have the time." Jiang Wanyin used his chopsticks to pick up the Xiao Long Bao his Gege made out of the bamboo steamer and plopped in his his mouth before continuing, "Or are you just shy?"

The older didn't respond. He just put down two glass cups on the island along a bottle of champagne.

The other snickered, "You still have a love for wine and alcohol?"

"They help me to relax."

The Jiang shook his head as he offered to open the lid and poured the liquid into their glasses, "I'm still surprised there's someone like you who have such a high tolerance. Kinda jealous of you, Gege."

Wei Wuxian picked up the glass and took a sip, "You have a high tolerance, too."

"Not as high as yours." Jiang Wanyin also drank a bit from his glass before grabbing some of the carbonara and putting it on his plate.

He badly wanted to dig in, but the bell to the door suddenly ran, catching the brothers' attention.

"I'll get it." The younger one stood up and went over there.

Right as he opened the door, his eyes widened as he froze in his place.

There were two people at the door, one blonde haired and the other one taller with black hair. Their eyes fixed on him and the black haired one smiled.

"Well, I didn't expect to meet you again." Lan Xichen grinned.

"Um.. y-yeah.. me too.." Jiang Wanyin stammered. What was he doing here!? What was this handsome, attractive man doing here!? And why was he panicking!?

"We just moved to this area a week ago and my Didi wanted to get to know some people here. We made some cupcakes."

Lan Wangji smiled at him and showed him the batch of chocolate cupcakes they made with strawberry frosting.

Jiang Wanyin smiled back, cheeks heating up as he grabbed the batch, "You're very kind.."

The older Lan thanked him, "We jus wanted to make friends with the neighbors."

"And I hope you like it! It was nice meeting you!" Lan Wangji cutely waved at him, about to go back to his apartment before he was stopped.

"I-If you don't mind.. would you to come in..?" The Jiang softly spoke, hands trembling a bit as his looked down with reddened cheeks.

"Are you sure?" Lan Xichen blinked.

The shorter male looked up to meet his eyes and nodded.

"If you insist."

Jiang Wanyin smiled and stepped aside, letting the two walked in.

"This looks amazing! Even better than ours!" Lan Wangji's mouth was agape as he looked through the apartment, scanning what kinds of objects were inside.

He then sniffed, "And what's that smell? It smells great!"

Jiang Wanyin bit in a chuckle as he found him pretty cute, "It's my Gege. He made dinner. Have you guys had dinner yet?"

The two shook their heads.

"Would you like to join us?" The lad questioned, hoping they would answer yes. He wanted to make new friends, especially with that black haired man in front of him.

"Um..."

Jiang Wanyin just smiled and led them into the kitchen where they were met with another person who was putting a piece of chicken in his mouth while looking at his phone.

"Hi!"

Wei Wuxian felt that voice was familiar somehow. He looked up and eyes slightly widened when he saw the same blondie from this afternoon, the one whom he saved from the awful guy and the one who gave him the matcha cake.

"Hi?"

Lan Wangji smiled as he went up to them, "Did you eat the cake yet? How is it?"

Wei Wuxian shook his head, "Not yet. I was planning to when I finish dinner. Why are you here anyway?"

Lan Wangji saw the man standing up, the other was towering over him as he was slightly taller. When he scanned him, he was 183cm tall while the blonde himself was only 179cm based on the information his system gave to him.

"My brother and I moved here a week ago. We live across from your apartment and we wanted to say hi. We brought cupcakes! Gege made them himself!"

Lan Xichen just smiled as he gave the human a small wave. Wei Wuxain just smiled back and greeted him.

"By the way, I never got your names." Jiang Wanyin went up to them.

"I'm Lan Xichen. This is Lan Wangji." The older Lan introduced themselves and the other two brothers did the same.

"I'm Jiang Wanyin. This is my Gege, Wei Wuxian. Although we aren't related by blood, I still consider him my beloved Gege!"

Wei Wuxian shook his head with a smile at the younger's comment. It made his heart warm.

The Lans nodded even though they were knew that. It might sound creepy, but theirs systems automatically checked the people's backgrounds to inform them about who those humans were.

"Gege, you wouldn't mind them joining us for dinner, would you?" Jiang Wanyin looked at his brother.

Wei Wuxian saw how the younger's eyes were screaming for him to say he didn't mind staying over for a bit. He just nodded. Besides, the two didn't look like bad people. Especially the blonde one. He looked sweet and pretty.

Wei Wuxian internally slapped himself for thinking about that. They just met today, but saying someone was pretty wasn't a bad thing, right?

"My Gege makes the best food. I'm sure you'll love it!" The Jiang exclaimed when he sat down at his spot earlier and Lan Xichen sat besides him while Lan Wangji went to sit on the left side of the Wei.

"They do look good." The older Lyxion stated with a small smile.

*・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・'(*゚▽゚*)'・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・*

"Thanks for the food. It was delicious!" Lan Wangji happily commented as he helped picking up the plates and putting them in the sink.

"I'm glad you like it." Wei Wuxian gave the shorter male a small grin.

"Let me help you with that." The young Lyxion grabbed a sponge before pouring a good amount of dish soap onto the soft cotton.

"You don't have to. I can deal with it." Even though he worded it like that, the Wei didn't mind the little company he had.

"Too late!" Lan Wangji chuckled as he began washing the dishes while the man beside him rinse the soap off.

They worked together in a comfortable silence. Nobody talked, but it wasn't awkward at all. However, Wei Wuxian couldn't help but to glance at the man on his right every minute. He didn't know why he was looking so much at him. He just felt the need to. He had never seen someone as beautiful and as handsome before. Not to mention, he was the first person Wei Wuxian had found to be amazingly good in blonde. He had seen blonde haired people before, but Lan Wangji was just another level of beauty. The blonde made him look so adorable and so innocent with a big tint of prettiness. The look overall just suited the shorter man.

"Your sleeves are getting wet." Wei Wuxian exclaimed, but before the other could comprehend, he saw a pair of hands coming up to him and rolling both of the sleeves of his oversized hoodie up.

"Thank you.." Lan Wangji mumbled, a wave of emotions washing through him. He didn't know how he should feel at their close contact, but he did know that his system popped up and it showed him that his temperature was rising.

Of course, I know that! I can feel the heat in my body! He screamed in his head, ignoring the obvious statement made by his system. Sure his system was a great asset to this mission and his life, which he had only lived for about a week, but sometimes it was a bit annoying. Still fun to have it though.

"Lan Wangji, correct?"

The blonde nodded. This was the first time the other had said his name.

"How old are you?"

The question was simple, but it made the other froze. How old was he? He wasn't born a baby like humans, or like the Eurystheusors on his planet. He came from a tube which already had his adult body constructed and his mind worked like a grown man. He was made three solar years ago, but he was never finished. His body and mind were only finished constructing last week, so was he a week old?

"Hello?" Wei Wuxian stared at the silent man in confusion.

Lan Wangji got out of his trance and faced the other, nervously laughing, "O-Oh right.. well.. I don't exactly remember. Are you supposed to keep track of your age?"

Wei Wuxian continued to stare at him and bursted out laughing for a few seconds, making the blonde furrowed his eyebrows, confused.

"Did I say something wrong?" Lan Wangji questioned, lips slowly turning into a small pout.

The other shook his head, trying to stop himself from laughing, "No, no! It's nothing. Just ignore me."

The younger only pouted and nodded, "Now that I think about it, I'm kinda remembering it..."

"What?"

"My age. If I'm correct, I'm 22 years old." Lan Wangji lied. He wasn't 22. He didn't even know how old he was.

Wei Wuxian nodded, "So you're younger than me. Cute."

Lan Wangji just smiled, "What about you?"

"I'm 28. We have a six year difference. Wanyin is 23. He's only one year older than you. What about your brother?"

The other made up another lie, "He's three years older than me. So 25!"

The businessman nodded before the two resumed doing their job. After they finished, they dried their hands and found themselves in the living room where they saw Jiang Wanyin sitting on the couch in a lotus position, a game controller in his hands while Lan Xichen sat on the floor, next to him, eyes staring at the TV screen.

"And I won!" Jiang Wanyin cheered excitedly.

Lan Xichen chuckled and looked at him, "Congratulations, Jiang Wanyin."

The shorter man felt the heat rising to his cheeks, causing it to turn slightly red as he shyly smiled, "Thanks.. you can call me Wanyin though.."

"Oh? Alright then."

"What are you guys up to?" Wei Wuxian inquired, walking up to them and sitting down next to his brother while Lan Wangji went up to his own brother.

"There's something called a couch, you know."

Lan Wangji saw the male's eyes on him and he chuckled, "I know. I just find the floor comfortable. You have a soft rug!"

Wei Wuxian smiled as he saw the other laying down on his back on the white fluffy rug, rolling around like a puppy. It was an endearing sight. So damn adorable.

"It was great to meet you, but I think it's about time we go back." Lan Xichen stood up, going to his little brother and effortlessly pulling him to his feet. It made the younger yelp in surprised.

"So soon? We didn't even eat the cake yet!" Jiang Wanyin was a bit disappointed. He only knew the man for about one or two hours, but he felt extremely comfortable with him. He didn't want him to go this soon.

Lan Xichen let out a small snicker, "The cake's for you and your brother who helped Wangji from a creep."

"In that case, let me escort you out." Wei Wuxian stood up and the three walked over to the door.

Lan Xichen thanked him before waving bye and going to unlock the door to the apartment while Lan Wangji stayed behind to talk to the other for a second.

"Thanks for letting us in and for the dinner, too. It was marvelous!"

Wei Wuxian couldn't stop smiling at him and nodded, "Thanks for the cupcakes. Oh and for the cake you gave me this afternoon."

Lan Wangji grinned, "The cake was nothing. You helped me from a complete stranger and I'm thankful for that. I hope we can become good friends in the future! By the way, since you're older than me, do you mind if I call you Wei Gege?"

Wei Wuxian felt his heart fastened at the name. It was just his surname with two words added at the end, yet why was he feeling so worked up? Tickling sensations were all over his stomach as if butterflies were having a party in there.

"I don't mind."

Lan Wangji's grin widened.

"Wangji, are you coming?"

The two looked over to Lan Xichen who was by the door across the hallway.

"Be there in a sec!" Lan Wangji shouted back before turning to the lad in front of him, "I should go. I'll see you around, Wei Gege!"

"Mn"

The blonde ran over to his apartment and turned to wave bye at him for the last time, smiling cutely and shut the door.

Wei Wuxian continued to stare even after the door was closed and the person was already gone. He soon found he was being creepy by smiling at a door and stopped himself, going back inside and closed his own door. He then went over to the kitchen, grabbing a white box. He didn't feel like washing the dishes again, so he just grabbed two plastic plates and two plastic forks. Pulling the cake out of the box, he smiled at the sweet goodness before cutting two pieces off and putting the rest back in the box, then the freezer.

"Wanyin!" He called out as he placed the two plates on the coffee table in the living room.

"Thanks!" Jiang Wanyin hummed, smiling as the sweet taste of matcha filled his mouth, "It's amazing! We need to go to Big Bubble Milk Tea often."

"To get the cake, the milk tea, or to see your crush?" Wei Wuxian raised an eyebrow, smirking at the his brother.

Jiang Wanyin got flustered, "I've only known him for two hours! I can't have a crush on someone that quickly."

Wei Wuxian laughed as the younger kept smacking his arm.

"But Gege, you seem fond of Lan Wangji. This is the first time I've seen you so comfortable with someone you just met. You normally take so much time to get along with people."

The older shrugged, "I don't know. Something about him just makes me feel comfortable."
