I think the reason the wangxian miscommunication doesn't upset me as much as other stories using that trope is because they're not misunderstanding over a surface level issue that could be cleared up with one conversation they're aren't speaking the same language. When lan wangji says "come back to gusu with me" wei wuxian hears "let me punish you" and lan wangji means "let me save you". Not to mention that there's a lot about their circumstances that make it so they can't clearly communicate like wei wuxian can't reveal he doesn't have a golden core so lan wangji can't understand why he chose the demonic path. In the end its only post resurrection when they learn eachothers language and secrets come to light that they can be happy and honest with eachother.

There's so many moments in MDZS that make my heart utterly clench and make me want to just burst into tears, either from deep sadness and despair, or from a profound sense of love...
- Wei Wuxian getting to see his beloved shijie in her wedding dress
- The beautiful gift he made for his sister's baby boy, only for it to then be so tragically destroyed
- How all he wanted was to go meet that little nephew of his; how he never even got to...
- Jiang-shushu's last goodbye to his sons
- Wen Qing's solemn "I'm sorry, and thank you."
- Everything that happened to Wen Ning. Just, everything.
- Lan Xichen's unconditional love and acceptance of every facet of his younger brother; the liquor, the rabbits, the lotus seed pods
- "What do you think about this one?" "Mine."
- Jiang Yanli's sacrifice for her dear A-Xian, loving and protecting him always, even till the end
- The silent desperation behind Lan Wangji's "Come back to Gusu with me" plea
- Xiao Xingchen's, Song Lan, and A-Qing's horrible deaths
- Granny Wen's corpse recognizing and reaching out for her grandson
- Wei Wuxian being demonized and scorned for taking the only cultivation path he could, while never saying a word to exonerate himself
- How he did literally everything in his life for others.
This story is heart-rendingly tragic and beautiful.
