He doesn't know the details of everything. Someday he and Angel might have to actually do something about how little they know about each other (but then how would they repeatedly bruise themselves, trying to protect one another from themselves? it's their whole thing). He knows enough to nod and hm softly. "My first deal is... it's to do with my family?" He hopes that's sufficient, not because it's a secret, but because it's a pretty long story and he's got enough to think about at the moment. "But if I managed to get a second, he can have it, if that happens first? To make sure."
(Has Angel also offered Wen Ning a hypothetical future deal? It's their whole thing.)
It's not a solution, just one more possible lifeline. He doesn't even linger on it. It's not exactly a sacrifice, a magical wish earned by being exactly where he wants to be, the happiest he's ever been in life or death.
"But, yes, anything he wants." He really didn't mind when he thought what Angel wanted was to tease him and occasionally kiss. But. This is not exactly a hardship.
