"It's okay..." he says softly, cheeks turning a little pink "it's understandable they'd worry, my love, they're only asking because they care. "

Wei Wuxian stares a little in disbelief - it's sweet, yes, but a little foolish too, that he didn't feel like he could trust any of them but he'd throw himself in front of Yuan like that.

"Rulan, are you really sure about this?" He asks, though he can already see he is "I meant what I said, if you're sure, we have your back."
