Wuxian felt like the blush intensified and he put his plate back on the table, looking down at his food. "I don't... know how to explain it. Like... When I met him, it felt like I had known him forever." It wasn't a lie, but not the whole truth. But his sister didn't have her memories (and honestly, he felt that was for the better), so to tell the whole truth would just probably make her think he was crazy. Which he got enough in life, he didn't need it from his precious big sister, too. He knew a stupid smile was on his face, but he couldn't get it to leave. "It felt comfortable to be with him, even when I had just met him. A soulmate is someone you'll be with forever, through lifetimes, and you feel drawn to the person."

Yanli smiled, she'd never seen her brother like this. "I'm happy for you Axian. How does your roommate feel?"
She heard a knock on the door and her eyes drifted closed, resigned, "oh no..." she muttered. "Ignore it, tell me what your next steps are."

"You don't think that's silly?" Wuxian asked her, his head perking up. He tilted his head towards the door as someone knocked on it, curious why Yanli said to ignore it, but shrugged and did so. "I uh... I don't know how he feels..." He admitted. "It'd be nice if he liked me back, but I possibly annoy him. Though like, he seems to try to spend time with me, so I guess that counts for something." He rambled. "I don't know what my next steps are."

"Why would I think it's silly? I'd recognize you as my brother in any lifetime Axian, so why wouldn't you recognize your soulmate?" Yanli asked. "And if he's trying to spend time with you, then that's a good sign."
The knock on the door came again, louder and more insistent. "Sorry, let me get that, stay here okay." She said heading towards the door.
She opened the door and saw who Yanli considered her least favorite neighbor. The old woman who'd come in and started poking holes in condoms. "Hello ma'am, can I help you?" she asked with all the politeness she could muster.
"I told Meinuan you'd be no good for Zixuan. Just a hussy who invites men over to the home she shares with her husband. What are you doing in there?" the old woman shoved her way inside again. "Look at him, he's not nearly as attractive as Zixuan and you're feeding him so well. Is it to increase his stamina? Zixuan has better stamina than this one."
"Nai nai," Yanli said helplessly.
"How disappointed he will be to know his wife is unfaithful," she pointed at Yanli's stomach, "is the baby even his?"
Yanli clutched her stomach, "what baby? I'm not pregnant! Zixuan and I are not even married and this," she pointed to Wuxian, "is my brother."
The old woman stepped closer to observe Wuxian, "no, I was shown pictures of your brother. He looks much angrier than this man. Look how you try to lie to me."
Yanli sighed in frustration and covered her face with her hand.

Wuxian felt warmed by her comment. If only she knew how true that was (but also, he never wanted her to know how true that was).
His smile faded though as an old woman came in and started nagging his sister and insulting him. "Well yes, Jiang Cheng is always angry. But I'm the adopted one." He said simply, pointing at himself. He pouted, "And I'm much better looking than that pe-Zixuan." He muttered. He looked over the food, wondering how it could increase stamina. All he'd want to do after eating this is sleep, which, last he checked, was the opposite of stamina.

"No good, that's what you are. You'd better use real condoms, not the special ones for him. Filthy girl," the old woman said.
"And that's enough, you can go now," Yanli said, placing a gentle hand on the old woman's back and guiding her to the door. "No thank you for stopping by, and I hope to never see you again."
"Rude and promiscuous girl," she was saying as the door was shut in her face.
Yanli turned around to face her brother. "Yeah, you've missed a lot. A lot of things like that...." She perked up, "oh, do you want to save your jiejie?"

Wuxian blinked at the closed door, astounded, both at the old lady and the fact Yanli stood up for herself, and against an elder. After a long pause, he sucked in a breath and seemed to reanimate, "Uh... wow. Um... yeah, how can I help?" He said, looking to his sister. His head quirked to one side and he looked at his sister with wide, eyes, furrowed eyebrows, and a grimace, "special condoms?" He asked, seeming to just pick up on that.

Yanli growled in frustration. "Yes, the woman barged her way into our house with a needle and proceeded to poke holes in condoms that his mother had packed him. His mother only packed them because my mother convinced her to do it. All on our first day here!"
She grabbed Wuxian's hand and dragged him through the bathroom and into the closet, "help me get rid of this stuff please," she said opening the bottom drawer of her dresser. It contained a medley of lingerie, toys and various lubricants and texts. "I need more drawer space, and I have no idea why my mother would give me any of this. Help, please?" she pouted.

Wuxian raised an eyebrow at the story about the special condoms. It sounded like Mrs. Jiang had done quite a lot of meddling before letting Yanli move in.
He turned bright red as he was led to the drawer and saw the contents. "Jiejie... that's..." He looked at her with a desperate and pleading look, "What am I supposed to do with it?" He asked. Giving it to Mrs. Jiang would be embarrassing, but he was living in a dorm room with limited space. And that wasn't something he could keep in his car. He eventually let out a defeated sigh, "give me a bag or something to take it with me... I guess I'll try to figure out what can be done with them..."

Yanli threw her arms around her brother, "thank you for saving me! Do you know how awkward it is when every conversation I have with mom starts with 'are you pregnant yet?' or 'have you lost your virginity yet?' She's driving me crazy," she grabbed a bag and packed it full of the drawer's supplies.
"Yeah, don't let your roommate catch you with these," she said holding up a pair of red lacy undergarments that looked more like string than actual pieces of cloth. "I honestly don't know what to do about her."

Wuxian was torn between embarrassment and laughter at Yanli's comment about Wangji finding this stuff. On the one hand, it would be mortifying. And who would believe his reasoning for having it? On the other hand, he'd want to be in the room when Wangji found it, because his reaction would be absolutely hilarious. "I mean... I'm assuming telling her to stop would not help. "But like, you've got at least ten years before you even have to worry about getting pregnant, right?" He said, not even sure if that was true or a myth. Mrs. Jiang had said to Yanli enough times he was pretty sure it was true. "And also, she has another kid. I don't see her nagging Jiang Cheng even half as much as she nags you. It's unfair to you. Has she always been this stuck in the past?" He asked, shaking his head.

Yanli placed a hand on her stomach thinking about it, "I mean what if something wrong with me? What if I can't have kids? What if it's really difficult to have kids?" she went over and wrapped her arms around her brother.
"She's been nagging in my ear for so many years and I don't know what to believe anymore. I mean, I have my career now and I don't want kids right now, but I wouldn't not have a kid right now if I was pregnant." She looked up at her brother and put a finger in front of his face, "to be clear, I am not pregnant."
She sighed and leaned back on her dresser, "as much as I hate the pressure, I'm glad it's not on you and Acheng. So I'm happy I can redirect that from you guys."
"How would your roommate react to that stuff?" she asked, grinning and nudging the bag with her foot.

"Well then, that's just a hurdle you'd have to work on getting over once you get to it, hopefully with the support of your husband and parents, and of course, your brothers." He raised his hands as she pointed at him, as if saying 'I didn't say anything.' "I do know you'd make a great mom, and I hope one day I get to be an uncle, but like, I'm not about to pressure you or Jiang Cheng into having a kid just so I can be crazy wine aunt." He scrunched up his face, "I was gonna say crazy wine uncle but that just doesn't have the right ring to it. Why is the connotation for crazy wine aunt and weird drunk uncle so different?" He waved a hand, "Anyway, Mrs. Jiang probably wouldn't let me call her 'mom' if I wanted to, you really think she'd count any kid of mine as one of her own?" He asked, serious though his tone was light. "I think I called her 'auntie' once when I was like 10 and she told me to never do it again."
He grinned and looked at the bag. "Oh man, he'd totally freak the hell out. It'd be hilarious. Like, it would be mortifying because 'I'm keeping it-slash-tossing it for my sister' is the worst excuse ever and he probably wouldn't believe that, but his initial reaction to seeing it would be epic." He said excitedly.

"Would you really be okay if I married Zixuan? I know you don't care for him, and your opinion matters to me," Yanli said. She grabbed Wuxian's hand, "but I really do like him," she admitted softly.
"You don't need nieces or nephews to be the crazy wine aunt, you're already the crazy wine person, just embrace who you are," she laughed.
"Now I don't want to hear about you bringing that stuff into your room just to get a rise out of your roommate." She spanked Wuxian lightly on the butt, "naughty boy."

Wuxian smiled gently to his sister and nodded, "I may not like him, but that doesn't mean I'm going to disregard jiejie's feelings over my own. I'm not the one marrying him. And if he makes you happy, then that's all that matters to me." He growled and cracked his knuckles, "Though if he makes you upset, he's got another punch coming to him." He warned an invisible Zixuan.
He let out a laugh at her wine comment, "Wow, I guess I deserved that but I'm not even 21 yet?? And you're already so judgemental to me..." He said, shaking his head and feigning hurt.
He squeaked as she smacked him. "You asked me to get rid of it! What else am I supposed to do? I'm not going to leave a bag like that just sitting in my car. On top of everything, I don't need the heat to cause weird things to happen with the wiring or bottles. The last thing I need in my car is haunted sex toys and an irremovable smell of lube."
