Xiao Zhan keeps walking here and there in the living room, he is not feeling well. He checks the wall clock, it's already 11 pm, his son must be really tired. Finally, he heard the gate opened by the guards. He quickly opens the main door and waved to his son who is running towards his direction.

"Daddy! Daddy! I'm home!"

Xiao Zhan embraced his son and carry him on his waist.

"How's my baby. Did you miss me?"

"Of course Daddy, I miss you so much. Hope your fever is gone now."

"I am good now baby."

"So how's the event?"

"Daddy, how much is 1 Billion?"

"It's many, why do you ask?"

"My painting bid 1 Billion."

"What? Really son? Who bid for it?"

"The Masked Man. And he said he needs to see you in person."

"Oh, I see. Because Daddy is sick earlier, I can't accompany you."

"Baby, you are amazing. Daddy is so proud of you. Congratulations! We can help a lot of children with that 1 Billion."

"Really Daddy? I am happy."

"Good, now you can go to your room and ask Jie-jie to help you prepare your things ok. Daddy will follow you there ok."

"Yes Daddy, I love you..."

"I love you, baby."

Xiao Zhan hugs his son, his precious treasure is really amazing. He can't believe the amount bid for his son's painting. He is expecting 30 to 50 million only since it's just a simple masterpiece of his son. Xiao Zhan decided to add it to the auction as part of their charity event because his son requested it. He finds it funny that his son paints him without his presence.

If Xiao Zhan didn't get sick, he will attend the auction so he sends his Personal Assist along with his son instead. This is not the first time Yuan attended an event by himself if Xiao Zhan has an important appointment, Yuan has his own bodyguard and personal assistant. His son is also a talented artist at a very young age just like him when he was young. He can't believe that after those trials like storms for the past 8 years, he never give up and raise his son alone. Thanks to Madam Wong who helped him, a Chinese artist who believed and trust his talent and even built a better future for him. But he feels sad every time he remembers that the person who helped him passed away. Madam Wong is an orphan too and owns an art gallery in Italy which also passed to her when the last owner died. Xiao Zhan can't believe that the respectable old lady is suffering from cancer and made a last will and requested him to take care of the gallery on her behalf and he became the sole owner.

It's just two months since they arrived in China because of their charity events.

Xiao Zhan needs to know his schedule for the person who got the masterpiece as part of the deal. He needs to wait for the call within this weekdays. Xiao Zhan is also curious, why the masked man spends that much on a simple art. He went to A-Yuan's room and cuddle with his son until they fall asleep.

At Wang Corporation. After one week, Secretary Ken gathered all the information from the investigation they made about Xiao Zhan and that Little Lan Yuan profile. Xiao Zhan is the legal and biological father of the baby artist. Wang Yibo rolled his right fist and slam the folder after reading the details about Xiao Zhan and his son. How dare he.

"Ken, bring that kid and his father here. Right now!"

Wang Yibo can't believe that Xiao Zhan left him and build his own family while he is waiting and looking for him for the whole 8 years hoping they will get back together. He is furious right now. He wants to hit the wall but he remains calm. He doesn't know the truth yet, the exact truth.

After he found out that Xiao Zhan left him, he almost loses his sanity and doesn't know what to do with his life, there were days he thought of committing suicide because he can't handle the pain, longing and can't accept that Xiao Zhan left just like that. Without reason, without explanation. Now that he found Xiao Zhan, he wants him to suffer like the way he felt. You cheated on me, Xiao Zhan. You left me so you can do whatever you want huh.

Xiao Zhan received an urgent call but he was confused about why the caller needs him so badly. He checked his schedule and just sigh. Fortunately, there aren't many things to do in his afternoon schedule. He is on his way now and he feels weird, he is in front of a prestigious building. He read again the exact address that the caller sent to him. He then dialed the person who called him earlier and after 15 minutes waiting in the lobby, a man in a black suit appeared in front of him.

"Good afternoon Mr. Xiao Zhan, nice to meet you. I am Secretary Ken, the caller earlier, and let me bring you to the CEO's office."

"Good afternoon, please to meet you."

Xiao Zhan followed the secretary and observe every detail of the main lobby, it's so huge and spacious. When they entered the lift, his mind begun to design the lobby and he picture out the outcome.

He is busy decorating the lobby of the building in his thoughts when he heard a ting sound. They reached their destination, the man shows to him the way to the CEO's office which occupied the whole 52nd floor. The said secretary let him sit in the visitors' waiting area for a while and enter the office. After a few minutes, the secretary comes out. Xiao Zhan is quite a bit nervous and he doesn't know this place. He just wants to fulfill the part of the deal. He takes a deep breath and tilts the knob as he pushes the door and step in the office. It's huge and spacious, his eyes begin to scan the place and become busy roaming around until he lost his focus and heard a broken cough and jolted. The CEO is sitting on his back facing the wall.

"Ehrm! Welcome, Mr. Xiao Zhan."

Xiao Zhan's heart jumped out of his chest when he heard the familiar voice and the owner turned his swivel chair and reveal his face.

"Or let say Welcome back Mr. WANG Xiao Zhan."

"Y-Yi-bo?" His heart is thumping crazy after Wang Yibo emphasized his surname. Did he not divorce him?

Xiao Zhan gazed intently to the man who once owns his body and soul.
He starts to scan Wang Yibo's feature from the toe up to the head. He is more handsome and the suit he is wearing now perfectly fit in him. He stares at his face, his hairstyle, the forehead, brows and eyes, his nose, the jaw, and that red plumpy sweet lips that drive him crazy every time it brushed into his, those lips that made his spine shiver and lose his sanity while exploring on his body. Xiao Zhan gulped his saliva and bit his lower lip unconsciously.

"Do I look delicious Mr. Xiao?"

"Yes! Ah no. I- I mean..."

"Mn."

Wang Yibo is just observing his reactions and he likes how Xiao Zhan being caught off-guard.

Xiao Zhan almost chokes by his own saliva and brings back to his senses when the man speaks and realized their faces were only a few inches apart. His heart pounds heavily and though the room is fully airconditioned, his forehead is bead-sweating. His face heated up and now turned to a crimson red because of embarrassment.

"Nice to meet you again, Mr. Wang." Xiao Zhan finally recovered from his lost thought awhile ago.

"Take a seat."

Wang Yibo gesture the couch on his right and he seat, the man followed and a seat on the opposite side. Xiao Zhan is fidgeting his fingers, he doesn't know how he will start to speak. He didn't expect to meet Wang Yibo and he is not even prepared. He can't even look straight to the man now.

"You mean, you are the masked man who bid the painting?"

"Yes, why Mr. Xiao, are you doubting me?"

"Ah, no-no. I mean, thank you. That would be a lot of help for the charity."

"Good, now let's talk about the deal then."

"Yes, let me know the best way I can help you."

"It says that I have the chance to meet the young artist and the said person on the canvass that's why I invited you here."

"Yes, how may I help you then."

"I want you to paint me, wearing nothing."

Wang Yibo said impassively and nonchalantly. Xiao Zhan's eyes widened, he didn't expect he will request that.

Xiao Zhan was taken aback. He is trying to compose a sentence but his mind turns blank for a while. He draws or paints a lot of naked models but he never felt affected. Xiao Zhan must not act like this so he composed himself and as professional, he must be himself.

"W-when d-do you want to start then?"

"As soon as possible. I will send you my schedule when I will be available and have time to strip naked."

Wang Yibo is looking straight in his eyes but Xiao Zhan is trying to avoid those half-lidded eyes which are piercing in his soul. There's a pang in his chest he can't explain. Wang Yibo changed a lot. He is more matured and speaks directly to the point. No more playful words and feelings of being sweet. He is not expecting Wang Yibo to treat him special anyway, after what he did. Maybe this man in front of him is happily married and just being professional.

Xiao Zhan is feeling disappointed, he took a deep breath and sighed which did not escape from Wang Yibo's sight.

"Is there any objection Mr. Xiao?" Wang Yibo asked.

"Ah, no. I am delighted and my pleasure to serve you, Mr. Wang." Xiao Zhan stands up and bows his head and smiles sweetly.

"Well then, anyway your son is really talented."

"Thank you." Xiao Zhan was taken aback once more for emphasizing his son.

"May I know why he is not with you anyway."

"He is busy, he is in school right now and has a painting class after that."

"I see, he is a cute and pretty kid and talented as his father."

Xiao Zhan just brushes the back of his neck and squirm. Is Wang Yibo fluttering him or just want to talk about his personal life. Does he have his own family, is he showing interest with his son? Xiao Zhan wanted to ask why he bid that canvass at such a high price, though he knows, of course, the procedure will go to charity, but Xiao Zhan is curious. Is it because he was the model in that canvass? He is hoping in his heart but he doesn't want to bring the topic and doesn't want Wang Yibo to think he is still interested in his ex-husband.

"Ahaha, Thank you, he is just an ordinary kid and happens to have an extra talent."

"Mn."

"So...., I think we are done."

Xiao Zhan wanted to bid farewell but Wang Yibo speaks again.

"That would be all for the meantime. Wait here for a minute." Wang Yibo left him for a while.

Xiao Zhan finally breathes properly. He though this meeting is over so he felt relax and prepare himself to bid farewell, but to his surprise when Wang Yibo gets back, he is carrying his helmet on his left hand. Xiao Zhan was about to speak when a warm hand pulled his wrist and dragged him towards the door.

"Let's go for lunch and I don't take no for an answer."

"W-wait, Y-Yibo..."

"Don't refuse, you will not like it either." Wang Yibo said in a cold yet strong voice.

Xiao Zhan just followed him and when they passed to Mr. Ken's table, he just nods and smiles. Mr. Ken left dumbfounded. He never saw his boss acted that way, dragging a person forcefully. He knows Xiao Zhan is Wang Yibo's long lost husband but he is not expecting Wang Yibo will become silly and careless this much.

When the two entered the lift, no one speaks. Wang Yibo is still holding Xiao Zhan's wrist which is red now from the strong grip.

"Mr. W-wang, please let go of my hand."

"What did you call me?" Wang Yibo's voice echoed inside the lift.

"Y-Yibo..." Xiao Zhan lowers his head and speaks slowly.

"Good!"

The lift door opened and they walk to the basement where Wang Yibo's motorbike is parking. Wang Yibo put on his helmet and start the bike and look at Xiao Zhan who is just standing.

"Hop in."

Xiao Zhan wanted to protest but he has no choice. He doesn't want to experience Wang Yibo's wrath right now. He then placed his hand on Wang Yibo's shoulder and hop to the bike. When he is settled and feel comfortable, he halted when Wang Yibo took his both hands and snaked it in his own waist. He encircled his hands and intertwine the fingers. Xiao Zhan's chest embraced and flatten on Wang Yibo's back. Xiao Zhan smells the familiar scent and he involuntarily leans his right cheek on Wang Yibo's nape and secretly sniffs the heavenly scent he always loves to smell. He doesn't have a helmet and he uses this as an alibi to protect his eyes from small objects. He missed this person and convinced himself in his thought. Let me stay like this for a long while, Bo-bo...I miss you so much my Baobei...

Wang Yibo smirked and grinned. Xiao Zhan's body is so warm and Wang Yibo cannot deny it. He missed his bunny so bad, his warm and tight hug. Ahh, Bun-bun, you are still the same.

"Ready?" Xiao Zhan didn't answer but Wang Yibo feels his head move on his nape so he began to drive slowly. Ahh, he really misses this but he needs to focus on his plan.

Let the game begin, Xiao Zhan.
