Wangxian post canon where one night, Lwj is late home. Wwx knows Lwj has been teaching today, so he goes to find his husband instead. When he reaches lwj’s classroom and slides open the door he sees Lwj, and in his arms is a gently snoozing baby disciple

Lwj blinks slowly in a gesture to tell Wwx to move quietly, but Wwx is already barely breathing in fear of waking the sleeping little one.

The little body rises and falls with each slow breath, and lwjs hand is a cradle on the back of the child’s head
‘How long have they been sleeping?’ Wwx mouths at lwj, who replies ‘since the end of class’

The child’s breath catches and they both freeze, then let out a silent sigh when no further reaction happens.

Wwx treads carefully over to the pair
As he kneels, he catches sight of a chubby cheek, smushed against the shoulder of his husbands white robes. His heart clenches. “Hello little one,” he reaches forwards and with one finger gently strokes back the hair from the child’s face. Big eyes blink open sleepily
“Morning,” Wwx smiles, and the child stretches out two chubby arms towards him, a silent demand to be carried. Wwx accepts, of course he does. He lifts the Lan disciple into his arms, shifting to lean against lwjs side
“What is their name?”

“A-Li,” Lwj places one palm on the little girls head, and Wwx feels a lump form in his throat.

“A-Li,” he sways gently, “well A-Li, it’s very nice to meet you”
A-Li lets out a low sound of contentment, and Wwx does not know how he feels but he knows he is happy. So much so. Lwj’s arms come up around them both, and the man begins to hum.
Wwx recognises it as their song and he joins in, humming in tune with Lwj, their combined voices a lullaby promising safety and happiness for the sleeping child.
At some point he must fall asleep, for when he wakes the weight in his arms is gone and he is tucked into their bed in the jingshi.

Lwj tells him that the little girl is an orphan, and has trouble sleeping at night which is why she fell asleep in class
“Lan Zhan... do you want to -“

“Yes.”

Wwx laughs “you don’t even know what I was going to say!”

“I do,” Lwj cradles his hands, pressing a kiss to the back of them, “Wei Ying would like a family”
“A-Yuan would make a great older brother,”

“He would.”

“We’ll have to remind him that he’s still our baby boy though, our little radish.”

“Mn, our son.”

“When can we adopt her?”

“Tomorrow.”
And when tomorrow came around, they did.
And that’s it! Wangxian married and have a son, and also now a daughter ❤️ and do they adopt more children? Probably 🥰🥰 here’s a link back to the top if anyone wanted it 🥰 https://t.co/gQj3iaegHB

I should mention, this is why I keep talking about this. Because I know so many people who legally CAN'T.

How do I know they have NDAs, if they can't talk legally about them? Because they trusted me with their secrets... after I said something. That's how they knew I was safe.


Some of the people who have reached out to me privately have been sitting with the pain of what happened to them and the regret that they signed for YEARS. But at the time, it didn't seem like they had any other option BUT to sign.

I do not blame *anyone* for signing an NDA, especially when it's attached to a financial lifeline. When you feel like your family's wellbeing is at stake, you'll do anything -- even sign away your own voice -- to provide for them. That's not a "choice"; that's survival.

And yes, many of the people whose stories I now know were pressured into signing an NDA by my husband's ex-employer. Some of whom I *never* would have guessed. People I thought "left well." Turns out, they've just been *very* good at abiding by the terms of their NDA.

(And others who have reached out had similar experiences with other Christian orgs. Turns out abuse, and the use of NDAs to cover up that abuse, is rampant in a LOT of places.)
