"Who the fuck are you?"

Wei Wuxian blinked, before laughing awkwardly. "Jiang Cheng, what do you mean? Did Jin Guangyao hit you with a memory loss spell or something...?"

Jiang Cheng& #39;s nostrils flared, his eyes flashed with rage and suddenly https://twitter.com/jiangchengwife/status/1399257381859516422">https://twitter.com/jiangchen...
his sword was at Wei Wuxian& #39;s throat.

"How dare you talk to me with such familiarity?" he hissed.

Before he could say anything else, Lan Wangji had deflected Sandu to the side and was stood protectively in front of Wei Wuxian.

"Jiang Wanyin! Mind your words!"
He was promptly ignored, and Jiang Cheng pulled Jin Ling behind him as he came into sight from behind Wei Wuxian.

"Jiujiu, what-"

"Quiet! Don& #39;t speak to that man, he& #39;s not who you think he is."

Wei Wuxian was starting to get irritated now. What the hell was up
with Jiang Cheng??? Why was he acting like they were strangers, huh?

"Jiang Cheng, what& #39;s gotten into you?!" he yelled, pulling Lan Zhan& #39;s arm down to meet his shidi& #39;s eyes.

"Stop calling me by that name as though we& #39;re close!" Jiang Cheng& #39;s eyes were filled with distrust,
"You are not the Wei Wuxian I know."

Wei Wuxian& #39;s brow furrowed, and he spoke again, clearly confused. "What do you mean?"

Jiang Cheng scoffed. "The Wei Wuxian I knew would never have gone running around with Lan Wangji of all people, rather than coming to Lotus Pier. He would
have come back and apologised for leaving the Jiangs behind, he would have at least tried to become part of Jin Ling& #39;s life, without needing some mastermind to kill people before he took the fucking hint!"
"Do not speak as though you know Wei Ying. Have you no shame, Jiang Wanyin? He has only helped you, and yet-"

"Oh, I suppose you know him though, don& #39;t you, Lan Wangji?" Jiang Cheng sneered, "No, definitely, the man who& #39;s gallivanted around the cultivation world for a few
months with him is a lot closer than me, who fucking grew up with him!?"

"Was it you who held him when he had nightmares when we were young? Was it you who followed him through all his crazy plans, and defended him when my mother found out?"
"That does not-"

"WAS IT YOU, WHO HAD TO SHOULDER THE BLAME OF THE CULTIVATION WORLD AFTER HE DEFECTED?!"

Jiang Cheng was getting angry now, shaking off his nephew when he tried to soothe him.
"All these years, I have had to do everything by myself, when it was you, Wei Wuxian, who said you would be my right hand! Was it not you who said we would be the Twin Prides together? So why?!"
"Why leave me; why leave your nephew, shijie& #39;s son who you named? Why leave everything behind all for a man with a pretty face who& #39;s only capable of saying your name? For a group of strangers, people who were part of the very same family that killed our own?!"
"Were the Jiangs really worth so little in your mind?"

He was crying now, tears of rage dripping down his face.

"Did you actually believe that I would value power over my own family?"

Wei Wuxian had gone pale, at a loss for words for once in his life. "I..."
"In any case," Jiang Cheng sniffled, "even an outsider could tell that demonic cultivation changed you. That much was obvious. But at the very least, you were still the old Wei Wuxian at times, you were still family. But I don& #39;t know who you are now. You aren& #39;t family."
"My thoughts were confirmed when you told me to & #39;leave it in the past& #39; just now. Leaving it in the past isn& #39;t going to bring back all the people I& #39;ve lost, all the people you& #39;ve taken from me. The old Wei Wuxian would never hvmave done that, he would have tried to reconcile."
"So again I ask, who are you?"
