He can see the hurt and betrayal on his face, that he has broken his trust. He waited for this long to tell him. The expression alone tells him everything. If Wangji could have known that Wei Wuxian has been sharing those types of kisses with the other and have his own experience on the hotel with his soultwin, he felt the same hurt, feeling a lot less of a man he should be, and he is empathizing with how he is feeling right now after he confesses to him.
Even if he gave him permission, there's a limit to his loyalty and faithfulness. It was a kiss of passion, and nothing more. His passion broke those boundaries and self-imposing rules, unspoken and unknown, and that he couldn't keep his emotions under self-restraint. The passion that wants what it wants and the truth of the matter is that both Wei Wuxians stirred the fire of his passion in their own way, and his passion doesn't diminish over one over the other.
"...Twice and I returned his feelings." He repeated. He waited and give Wei Wuxian some space to feel anything. Anger. Hate maybe, and he's no stranger to that emotion when Wei Wuxian as the Yiling Patriach hates him. Shock. Disbelief. He expected to have his heartbroken by him again and again. But it's the truth. He knew that he hurt him, and he wanted to give him a chance. A chance to rethink their relationship and the truth of their bond.
"You don't have to marry me if you're not ready or if you changed your mind." He said quietly, with a stoic expression that turns into a silent pain. "But my love for you don't diminish. But I can't marry you unless you know the truth. The truth is that I love you both very much, more so than my own life. My love for the both of you will stand forever and any word from you, and I will keep my silence forever."
