Hua Cheng walked into Purgatory's office where Xie Lian had summoned him, and he was just crossing the threshold when he was slammed against the door and he heard the door's being locked. Standing in front of him was Xie Lian himself, who was looking at him with fire in his eyes, making him suddenly feel… hot.

"Dianxia…"

"Correct me if I'm wrong, Hua Cheng." Xie Lian's face was very close to Hua Cheng, and he whispered to the latter in a breathy voice. "Do you have a feeling for me?"

Although it's true, Hua Cheng was flustered when the object of his affection suddenly cornered him and asked him that. But since Dianxia was the one who breached the topic, then he would not hold back anymore.

"I've been searching for you ever since the day you saved me. Feeling? There's no feeling in this world that can describe mine for you." Hua Cheng looked at Xie Lian with eyes full of adoration. "But if you must name it, I worship the ground you walked in, Dianxia, even if you won't give me anything other than friendship, I will gladly receive it."

"Good." Xie Lian smiled and kissed him.

The first thing Lan Wangji saw inside the apartment was his lover, his soulmate, leaning out of the broken window's ledge, and it only took him a few long strides to catch him and pull him back into his embrace.

"Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Wei Wuxian was surprised but he knew that Lan Wangji was around from his familiar sandalwood and citrus scent and it triggered something within him.

"No, because I know that you will always be there to catch me, Lan-laoshi." And he turned around and jumped Lan Wangji until the latter almost fell, then he kissed him, hard. "I remember everything." He chuckled. "It only takes a severe case of lead poisoning to… reboot my brain. Guess Shen Qingqiu had it right all this time." He showed the hollow point bullet that he spat from his mouth, directly from his brain.

"What the…" Lan Wangji took the still-warm, still-covered-with-blood bullet and looked at Wei Wuxian in such an unexplainable feeling. "Did someone shoot you? Which one?" Lan Wangji took Wei Wuxian's face and examined it, until he saw the bloody temple, but there was no scar or anything there. "How…"

"First, don't panic, I'm fine. Second, none of the three fuckers shot me, it was your stalker Jin Su. But somehow she became… not her. She was very agile, and her movement somehow reminded me of Xue Qing. And she jumped from the window, which is why you found me like that. I was about to jump down to follow her, you know."

"No, you are not allowed to jump from the third floor window." Lan Wangji embraced him and carried him over his shoulder–ignoring his protests that he could walk by himself,  and took him back to Purgatory. He did not want to stay there for another second longer, so he ordered his shadow guards to drop the three assholes to Detective Jiang and to bring the girls to Purgatory.

"So, tell me, what do you mean by, you remember everything?" Lan Wangji put Wei Wuxian inside Xiao Hei and turned his face around to face him.

"Everything like everything, Lan Zhan. From before I died for the first time, from when I became Mo Xuanyu, everything." And more. "And I want to say that I am really, really sorry, because I was the one who put the memory spell on you."

Lan Wangji was stunned by the revelation, it caused him to be speechless for a few seconds.

"... but why? Why did you want me to forget about… us?" Lan Wangji looked so dejected that Wei Wuxian climbed into his lap and hugged him.

"I was being chased by very bad guys, who wanted my...body, my core more precisely. I don't want you to be involved in my very dangerous fight, so I cast a memory spell on you and left you with half of my core, because I know you will take care of it." Wei Wuxian touched Lan Wangji's face softly, his eyes were filled with so much more than just love. "I'm sorry, baby, I love you too much. I know that you wouldn't be able to move on if I didn't cast that spell." He hugged Lan Wangji tight. "Besides, I thought that you might wanna have a normal family, with your face, your body, your brain, your money, didn't girls swarm around you like bees to honey?"

"You should know by now that the only bee I want to swarm around my honey is just you." Lan Wangji hugged Wei Wuxian very tight and he nuzzled into his neck, inhaling his familiar and intoxicating scent. 

"You made it sound so perverted." Wei Wuxian chuckled, but a single tear escaped from his eyes, as he buried his face into Lan Wangji's embrace.

"Please don't do that again, do you know how miserable I was, when I felt like something was missing in my life but I had no idea what it was?"

"I do. Believe me, Lan Zhan, I do." Wei Wuxian sniffed but he quickly wiped his tears. "But I promise, from now on, I will not do that anymore. We will face it all together."

"You better. Or I will tear everything down just to find you and take you back into my arms."

"Mm, my hero." Wei Wuxian kissed Lan Wangji's neck, leaving a love bite. "Just a little souvenir to remind everyone that you're mine, Princess."

"Princess?" Lan Wangji furrowed his brow.

"Yes, Princess, because you are too beautiful for your own good." Wei Wuxian kissed Lan Wangji's mouth softly, then it went to something more… urgent, and the next thing they knew, they were panting and heaving and tearing each other's clothes off. 

"Give it to me hard and fast, baby." Wei Wuxian was already impatient as he plunged Lan Wangji's hardness into his warmth.

"As you wish, my liege."

They finished the quickie soon enough, and after they fixed their clothes, they drove back to Purgatory to meet with the two women that had just barely escaped catastrophe.

Han Xilin and Tang Yan were crying hard and hugged Wei Wuxian and said their thanks when they arrived at Purgatory, because he literally saved them from being kidnapped and sold as prostitutes.

"Please don't do that again." Wei Wuxian ruffled Tang Yan's hair, and pinched Han Xilin's cheek. "You're going to be in so much trouble if I did not come in time to save you both."

"I thought you wanted to study again, Miss Han? Canada wasn't it?" Lan Wangji talked to Han Xilin, who looked like she was caught with her hand inside a cookie jar.

"Well, I was thinking about that, you know, after my… procedure was done. But Tang Yan here was so miserable without me, so we decided to get rid of those three then continue with our lives." She held Tang Yan's hand tight, and kissed her cheek. "By the way, we are together now." Han Xilin announced it proudly to Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian and she looked at Tang Yan with stars in her eyes.

"Congratulations," Wei Wuxian smiled at the good news, "but please don't do this kind of stuff again. Do you know how annoying and smelly it is to dissolve a body, let alone three, in a bathtub? No amount of bleach should be able to cover it. Don't ask me how I know."

"I won't even dare to think to ask." Han Xilin looked very relieved and happy as she hugged Tang Yan's waist.

"So, what will happen to those three?" Tang Yan asked them with her soft voice, yet there was a genuine concern in her eyes. She was lucky she got out almost unscathed, unlike the girl who died, or the one who underwent the hysterectomy. 

"They will be charged for kidnapping us, and also multiple under age rapes based on the DNA they recovered from, well, both of you and one other girl, who was willing to testify. They will get at least fifteen years in prison. And as you know, the inmates often… despise pedophiles. So it will be a very illustrious fifteen years." Lan Wangji answered them with a smirk on his face.

"So, what are you guys planning to do now?" Wei Wuxian asked both of the young women, who looked even younger than their actual age.

"Since you have caught those three, and Tang Yan is here, I plan to go to Cloud Recess University too, studying Law." Han Xilin looked proud of herself.

"I'm sure you're going to do great." Wei Wuxian hugged them, "come here anytime, just say hi, or chill with people your age. This is a safe place for women."

"We will be back soon, promise." 

"Stay out of trouble!"
