Wei Wuxian winks at his nephew as the conversation moves on, one of the other guests drawing attention to discuss some cultivation matter or other - and neatly cutting off sect leader Yao before he starts on another grumbling tirade about how terrible Wei Wuxian is.

Oh no.
They hadn't agreed on a cover story, and with Jin Ling not there he doesn't want to say anything that the sect leader might be contradicting to someone else at this very moment. He thinks quickly.
"Well he's already done so much for me in such a short amount of time," he starts, deciding to just say so much about the first question he can neatly forget the second "I love music and I play qin, but I expressed an interest in learning pipa and he arranged for an instrument and a tutor for me while we're here. He's given me so many gifts - oh, but I don't mean to imply he's just being ostentatious, he's been so attentive as well."
