[A man could hope. Just take the win, Wei Wuxian. It gets the saber out of your face.
Feeling exposed out here in the middle of the marketplace, Nie Mingjue sends a suspicious look around them, briefly, and starts to walk, motioning for the other to follow him. It'll be better if they can find somewhere quieter to speak, because his questions are only multiplying.

And they are well? [Lan Xichen is his sworn brother, of course, but Nie Mingjue has always had some respect for his younger brother as well. They didn't have the kind of relationship that Lan Xichen has (had) with Nie Huaisang, but that's because Wangji has always been much more independent. Still, he cares to hear how he's doing.]
