Wei Wuxian says, “Please don’t hold it in your heart,” and what the fuck, how the fuck does he think that’s going to work? When has Jiang Cheng ever been able to let grudges go? Wei Wuxian of all people ought to know better than that. His brother leans over to him and wipes his tears away and Jiang Cheng lets him,  because no matter how much he hates him, he never stopped loving him. Never.

Wei Wuxian says, “Jiang Cheng, it was a lifetime ago. Let’s just leave it in the past.”

You said, let’s be brothers in our next life too,  Jiang Cheng thinks. Well, now it’s your next life, what are you waiting for?

You said, you’d never leave me, and you never did, Jiang Cheng thinks, but you let me think you did. You let me feel alone, all alone, when if I’d known the truth I’d have known that you were there with me through it all. You let me hate you and that’s not fair. 

You said, let it go, Jiang Cheng thinks, but how am I supposed to let you go, when there’s a part of you that will never leave me until I die?

Jiang Cheng says, “Take care.”
