He has a friend. What do you know? He doesn't recall the last time he had someone he might call that and actually mean it. There were some people who he didn't completely dislike their company and a few who were as useful to him as he was to them. He tends to believe that mutual using of each other for personal gain was friendship. For some reason he can't quite put his finger on, Huaisang doesn't seem to want anything from him. Yet. Of course, yet. That had to be it. It was still coming.
Feeling more comfortable, he watches as his guest pours him wine- which shouldn't it be reversed? Oh well- and offers it to him so sweetly. He takes the glass and finds when he smiles his thanks it isn't quite as forced as he would've thought it would be. "Thank you, Nie-zongzhu." Lifting his glass to the toast, his smile wavers at hearing the word 'wife' but the end is so close to getting a laugh out of him that it's forgotten quickly. He drinks so much of his glass, it is reminiscent of Wuxian's antics.
"If I ever find someone again, we're eloping. I might introduce my brother after we've had our third anniversary." Maybe. "At least you don't have to put up with such things!"
