Xie feels much more comfortable with his weapons in place, so he's glad they don't bother to check - it does mean he reassesses, slightly, his estimation of the possible danger. He's hardly going to be the only person here with penchant for concealed weaponry.
(Not to mention the probable magical threat)
He lets himself fall back into the old patterns, saunters along and shows people as little interest as they show him - if he recognises them and deems them worthy, he greets them with a nod, but otherwise people get ignored. The first time somebody does the barcode gesture he just gives them a cool stare, almost daring them to act on the information they've learned. Internally, he's a little concerned - he should have had them check, before they left, that there wasn't anything in it (now) that would ruin their plans. He doesn't think there should be, but it's a concern - he'll get them to check later, just in case.
Mostly, he just projects exactly what he wants to project - bored heir waiting for something interesting to happen.
