This was the first time Jin Zixuan felt like everything was out of his control. Ever since he was young, he knew that he would be the heir of the Jins family, and he was expected to marry some prominent family's daughter. For example; the Wen's Wen Qing, or the Jiang's Jiang Yanli. Since Jiang Yanli was the main wife's daughter, naturally his choice fell upon her. She was not bad looking. A bit timid and shy, quite an average lady if you compared it with her overbearing mother. But she was good enough to marry Jin Zixuan, he could keep a side mistress or two to warm his bed, just like his father, after he pumped a couple of kids out of her.

But when he found out that the shy and timid Jiang Yanli was going out with the Lan Xichen, he was furious.
 
It was a coincidence, really. He was trying to get into the hottest club in town, Crimson Butterfly, and he was denied entry because he was intoxicated. There were no drugs, no prostitution rules at the night club and anyone who dare to disregard those rules would be banned indefinitely. He was just about to scream at the security to tell him how dare he forbade entry to the Jin's heir, when his eyes caught the glimpse of Jiang Yanli entering the club from the VIP door, alongside none other than Lan Xichen.

He was so dumbfounded because he never thought that Jiang Yanli, the plain Jane, could catch the eyes of the Lan's family Casanova, Lan Xichen. They were the furthest thing as a couple that anyone could ever imagine. But here they were.

And then, his obsession toward Jiang Yanli began.
 
He followed Jiang Yanli almost everywhere, but she rarely went out unless it was for school, or when she was going on a date with Lan Xichen. When Lan Xichen picked her up and took her to his home for his parents' anniversary, he was pretty sure that Lan Xichen would propose right then and there. It wouldn't do, she was supposed to be his wife.

So when they went out again together for an outing, dressed in all black, Jin Zixuan was prepared. He ready snorted an extra batch today for some extra courage, because today was the day he would finally confront that cheating bitch and dragged her home.

The funeral proceeding was not long, the eulogy was heartfelt, and when it's finished, Jiang Yanli took baby Xianxian, now ten years old, to the toilet. Wei Wuxian wore a navy sailor dress with black mary jane and knee-length striped socks, her long hair was braided at the back and she wore a sailor hat. She looked so adorable and Jiang Yanli was in love. She scolded Lan Wangji, who initially was the one who wanted to take Wei Wuxian to the toilet and she took Xianxian's hand to go together, because 'girls had to stick together'. Lan Wangji and Lan Xichen rolled their eyes, but they let both of the girls go together. After all, who dared to mess with them in the middle of a public place and was swarmed by bodyguards of the Lans, the Wens and the Jiangs families? Yes, that's right, even the Wens' patriarch, Wen Ruohan, showed up to the funeral and gave his condolences to Lan Wangji and Yuwen Xing. Although he looked at baby Xianxian in a peculiar way, he did not say anything. Detective Jiang also came, although he was escorting Wen Qing. Some of Mo Xuanyu's classmates also turned up to pay their respect.

"So, you become a single father to your girlfriend's reincarnation now?" Surprisingly Lan Xichen took the news well. He was in awe, but after he saw little Xianxian, he didn't doubt at all that it was Mo Xuanyu, or Wei Wuxian. He was glad that his brother did not fall into another despair, and finally regained his memories, although partially.

"Hopefully not for long." Lan Wangji saw that the six years old girl had already turned ten overnight. And after the whole 'little boy who ran away' fiasco again, she finally calmed down and thankfully he insisted for the dresses they bought yesterday to be a few sizes bigger, otherwise she would have nothing to wear.

"But she looked cute like that, you're both just like father and daughter, and mom is happy with her new granddaughter."

"That won't last long. With this speed? Probably less than a week. Few days more, tops." Lan Wangji took out his cigarette and lit it with his silver lighter. He remembered it was a gift from Wei Wuxian just right before he was killed. Would he remember it when he reverted back to his original soul? He was feeling rather melancholy, with the funeral and the dark cloud which was looming over them, a sign of incoming rain.

"Sounds like you can not wait to get your girlfriend back." Lan Xichen bumped a cigarette from his brother, but when his was lit, they heard a loud scream from the direction of the toilet. 

Jiang Yanli was helping Xianxian wash her hands when she was suddenly grabbed from behind by someone.
 
"Jiang Yanli, you shameless slut…" the voice was disgustingly breathy, whispering in her ear, and the man's hand and body was sweaty. He pressed himself close, and from that up close, he emitted a familiar sickly sweet odor from his breath. 
 
Jiang Yanli knew right away that this man was an opium addict since she was trained by her brother to stay away from anyone who showed the symptom, so she quickly signaled Xianxian to run away to get help. But strangely, the girl didn't seem to be fazed at all, instead she looked calm, and tilted her head. Not even an ounce of fear in her galaxy eyes.
 
"Whose girl is this? Is this yours?" Jin Zixuan looked at the little girl, who looked back at him without any trace of panic or agitation. She was as calm as a cucumber. "You're so shameless, you were engaged to one man and frolicking with another man until you produce such a… an abomination like that!" What engagement? She didn't even know the man! Jiang Yanli suddenly felt dread. The words that came out from the man's mouth were exactly like her mom's, and she was already being conditioned to feel trepidation and helplessness every time she heard that kind of harsh scolding. She tried to be strong, for herself,  the girl, for Xichen, but when the insults came nonstop, her tears started to fall.

"Such a disgraceful woman, you're not that pretty and yet you dare to seduce Lan Xichen. Do you think you're on the same level as him… fuck! " The man suddenly cursed out loud and let his hold on Jiang Yanli go to crouch and grabbed his bleeding ankle. "You little bitch! " He screamed at little Xianxian, who just quietly and efficiently cut his achilles heel from his lower back side, with Jiang Yanli's manicure knife while no one was looking. And while the man was down, the little girl kicked his nose with her full power, which caused the man to scream like a banshee and when he was down, she stepped hard on his crotch, which caused irreversible damage since Wei Wuxian was adept in martial arts ever since he was three. 
 
"Be glad I did not use this knife on your little pee pee, mister." She crouched down to whisper on the now whimpering mess of a man. Then she walked to the sink, cleaned the knife with running water and put it back into Jiang Yanli's bag, while the latter looked at the girl in awe. Xianxian's face did not show much emotion rather than indifference after the thing she had done, like she was used to it. Jiang Yanli did not know about the girl's identity, since Lan Wangji stated that it was ' need to know ' only, and she had not earned the right yet. And right now Jiang Yanli seemed to be thinking that the Lan's family was true to the gossip outside, even the kids were trained to defend themselves efficiently. Then Wei Wuxian looked straight at Jiang Yanli's eyes.

"Relax, jie. He won't bother you, or anyone anymore, and they will come in three… two… one." She was smiling brightly when Lan Wangji and Lan Xichen burst open the toilet door and quickly ushered the girls out before securing the man, who turned out to be Jin Zixuan.
