He'd heard, by word of mouth, that Lan Wangji was back, just as the others had said, offering up comforting words that death wasn't permanent in this place. But it's different, seeing it in person, tracing the gold running through his skin, witnessing the life in his eyes. He should be overjoyed, and really... really, he is happy to see Lan Wangji is all right. He also knows he should keep his distance, so he doesn't spring over, all smiles and hugs, he just nods once.

"I'm fine out here, I can still feel my toes an everything. You go on ahead."
