"I am more qualified to teach you painting and handstands," Lan Wangji admits, just the tiniest bit dry about it. "I have loved one person all my life and did not speak of it until recently." This is not quite accurate. He confessed once, at length, and it was forgotten entirely, Wei Ying's mind breaking under the qi backlash along with his body and spirit. That Lan Wangji is the only one who remembers makes it easy to feel as though it never truly happened.
