i was listening to a song and had such a specific story blasted into my mind
so i thot: what if wangxian
so i thot: what if wangxian
no one is reading this but im gonna type it out anyway bc i can :)
so! wwx shows up at club (flashing lights, vibes, etc) with WN and WQ (the members of his crew)
it& #39;s the night before their heist of Carp Tower (bc we all know there& #39;s shady stuff going on in there)
it& #39;s the night before their heist of Carp Tower (bc we all know there& #39;s shady stuff going on in there)
they need to get an access key thing off of Jin Zixun (who is always at the club getting drunk) and its mostly up to WQ bc she is pretty lady. WN and WWX are there as back up and to keep an eye out
plus, NHS warned the three of them that there would be some undercover agents at the club to try and catch them--so they had to be Extra Careful.
WWX is split up from WN and WQ to cover more ground. He can see WQ and a few other women around Jin Zixun (gross).
He& #39;s casually sipping alcohol (enough to blend in, not nearly enough to get drunk) when he suddenly locks eyes with The Most Beautiful Human he has EVER seen. Literally Ever.
They share some heated eye contact from across the club, and WWX is so shook by this lovely man.

Eventually the moment breaks (a group of ppl walk in between them, which is very rude--didn& #39;t they know he was exchanging looks with the love of his life???)
At this point, WWX is internally cursing his horrible luck. On any other normal night, he would go and shamelessly flirt with this beautiful man.
ALAS! he is here on business today. So instead of chasing the guy down, WWX lets himself lose track of the man in the crowd. Sigh.

He turns his focus back to WQ and sees that one of the other girls is trying to pull Jin Zixun away (why anyone would want that is beyond WWX).
WQ hadn& #39;t gotten the access key yet, so he has to do something.

WWX casually works his way towards them, and as he passes by, he seamlessly knocks a drink onto the girl& #39;s clothes.
He doesn& #39;t stop, he just keeps walking, but he can hear a little shout from the girl and figures he was successful.

Except. He& #39;s distracted as he& #39;s walking away. Not exactly paying full attention to where he& #39;s walking.
So he runs full on into someone.
And not just anyone.
Of course it would the his beautiful man from before.

and OH BOY is he even more stunning and beautiful and perfect up close.
It& #39;s not fair. The universe sent this man the ONE night WWX couldn& #39;t do anything about it.
So he will leave.
It& #39;s not fair. The universe sent this man the ONE night WWX couldn& #39;t do anything about it.
So he will leave.
BUT! He& #39;s only human. So he can& #39;t resist tossing the man a grin and a wink before getting his hands off his chest and returning back to the crowd.
It& #39;s truly a tragedy that he can& #39;t just ask Mr. Sexy to dance and just spend the rest of the night (and his life) with him.

He goes back to waling around the perimeter, checking things out. But somehow his eyes KEEP running into the beautiful eyes of this man. It& #39;s agony for WWX to tear his gaze away each time.
He& #39;s a professional, he keeps telling himself. It& #39;s for the greater good!

Plus WQ would kill him for screwing things up bc of a pretty face (even if it is THE prettiest face).
After a little while of this, WN asks WWX to check out the roof, just in case.
So WWX goes to the roof.
But when he gets there, he sees none other than his beautiful, perfect, mysterious man.
So WWX goes to the roof.
But when he gets there, he sees none other than his beautiful, perfect, mysterious man.
And once again, WWX is a weak man. If the universe keeps sending this man his way, who is he to deny fate?
So he approaches.
"Hi."
So he approaches.
"Hi."
"Hello." Of course, he has a perfect voice, too. Unfair.
"I& #39;m Wei Ying." As soon as he says it, he realizes he should have used an alias. But he just couldn& #39;t lie to that face.
"Lan Zhan."
WWX grins. "It& #39;s nice to meet you, Lan Zhan."
"I& #39;m Wei Ying." As soon as he says it, he realizes he should have used an alias. But he just couldn& #39;t lie to that face.
"Lan Zhan."
WWX grins. "It& #39;s nice to meet you, Lan Zhan."
So WWX spends the rest of the evening "keeping an eye on the roof." It turns out he and LWJ have a lot in common, and the conversation is so easy.
WWX flirts, and he& #39;s pretty sure LWJ flirts back.
He is also pretty sure this man is the love of his life.

He is also pretty sure this man is the love of his life.
At one point the conversation lulls for a little, and in the comfortable silence, he can hear LWJ humming a pretty tune under his breath.
"What song is that?"
"Nothing yet." A very mysterious answer. But somehow, WWX finds himself content with leaving it mysterious for now.

Eventually WQ texts and says she& #39;s got what they need. Which means it& #39;s time to go.
And it seems like LWJ has to go too.
"I& #39;ll see you around Lan Zhan?"
LWJ nods.
And then they part ways.

(Neither of them thinks of exchanging numbers because they& #39;re stupid and caught up in the moment.)
WWX decides not to mention meeting his future husband to anyone until after they succeed with their mission.
For one, it would be a distraction.
For another thing, if they don& #39;t succeed... well he would never see LWJ again anyway. So.

they spend the rest of the day prepping for the heist
well actually wwx is thinking about lwj, pining away.
wn and wq can tell that wwx is preoccupied, but they let him deal with it on his own for now

cut to the actual heist. it& #39;s going FLAWLESSY!
wq and wn are in the get-away car, wwx is just re-setting the security system so that no one ever knows they were ther
he& #39;s whistling a random tune to himself and fiddling with wire when he hears a gasp--and the clicking of a gun

he& #39;s whistling a random tune to himself and fiddling with wire when he hears a gasp--and the clicking of a gun
he turns around slowly and its LAN ZHAN?? holding a gun and aiming it at his head.
"Lan Zhan?" he can& #39;t help himself from saying
"Wei Ying." lwj says with a quiet, but steady voice. "put your hands in the air"

wwx puts his hands on his face mask--its still there? how did lan zhan recognize him? "Lan Zhan... this isn& #39;t how I wanted to see you again."
lwj gestures with his gun for wwx to put his hands up. wwx complies
lwj gestures with his gun for wwx to put his hands up. wwx complies
"... nor I, Wei Ying. Maybe if you were not committing crimes."
wwx scoffs "me?? the people here are the real criminals. im an agent of justice."
"Yes. because & #39;agents of justice& #39; wear all black and sneak in at night."
wwx scoffs "me?? the people here are the real criminals. im an agent of justice."
"Yes. because & #39;agents of justice& #39; wear all black and sneak in at night."
"Well it& #39;s better than robbing people of their money. People who really need it. You don& #39;t even know who you& #39;re protecting right now, do you?"
wwx can see lwj hesitat. then they hear voices. it& #39;s the other officers.
if wwx stays any longer, he& #39;ll be caught.

if wwx stays any longer, he& #39;ll be caught.
he needs to tell wq and wn to get out of there and leave him before they get caught too.
but then, without warning. lwj puts his gun down "go."
"what?"
"just leave. before I change my mind"
but then, without warning. lwj puts his gun down "go."

wwx is NOT about to look a gift horse in the mouth, but the moment is still a little bittersweet.
"I& #39;ll see you around, Lan Zhan?"
"... I hope so."
"I& #39;ll see you around, Lan Zhan?"
"... I hope so."
so wwx runs to the hidden getaway car and they peel out of there.
wn and wq: we did it!!!
wwx: the loml and i are star crossed lovers....
wn: concerned
wq: i& #39;m not paid enough for this

for the next few months, it& #39;s a little game of cat and mouse (definitely on purpose for both of them)
and it& #39;s the only way that they see each other
until one day they meet a coffee shop
and it& #39;s the only way that they see each other

they exchange numbers and pretend that this is exactly their Second Meeting. nothing suspicious at all.
eventually, lwj realizes just how crooked the ppl wwx is robbing from is (he had his suspicions to begin with)

he helps wwx and works as a double agent, and together they all take down the conspiracy of corruption <3

THE END
