[Miu grins at him, seemingly pleased at having caught him off guard, then waves a dismissive hand at the apology] It’s fine, it’s fine. Different countries celebrate it differently, but where I’m from it’s really for girls to give the presents. In a month—on March 14th- is when the boys are supposed to give gifts back to the girls who age them presents first. That one’s called White’s Day, and your gift is supposed to be something white, or near enough.
[You know, like diamonds... Or white lingerie, but she won’t tell him that..]
It’s called Valentine’s and it’s supposed to be a holiday celebrating love. Generally it’s a pretty big day for couples and love confessions, engagements and marriages and all. But you can celebrate the love between family and friends too.
[She nods in acceptance, and then:] You guys— [And then she stops and frowns, looking down at her hands, clearly having not expected to speak up at all.
But now it feels like she can’t just backdown and she can’t think of anything quickly to lie with. She glances at Xichen and then away again, continuing to frown before she sighs and speaks quietly. ]
You...and Hangaung-jun... have been really... [She trails off and wrings her hands together, shrugging like she’s not sure how to say it.] You’ve done a lot for me. More than most people would. You both... You’ve made me feel like I. Actually belong somewhere. I guess.

Before his face softens, and he inclines his head. Family. He does know how Wangji feels about her. ]
In a month, something white, then. I will remember. Thank you.
