Yibo: "Zhan was and is my dream man. I simply can't imagine my life without him. When he came to the company and I saw him, I knew I would never let him disappear from my life again. I kissed him not even 10 minutes after we met again and asked him for a chance. And luckily, he said yes."

Zhan: "That was exactly what I wanted. I wanted to be with you and that was the only reason I had gone there in the first place. I just didn't expect Yibo to make it so easy for me."

Yibo: "Oh Zhan, I loved you so much even then that I would have loved to kiss you right then and there in front of everyone."

Julia: "Have you ever had other partnerships before?"

Zhan: "No. For me, there was always only Yibo."

Yibo: "There was never anyone else for me either. Zhan was and is the only one for me."

Zhan: "Oh you are so cute."

Yibo: "You are cute Zhan. I love you."

Zhan: "I love you too Yibo."

XinXin: "XinXin also loves Baba and Daddy."

Zhan: "And we love you little princess."

Yibo: "Mn. We love you all pupp."

Julia: "It's nice to see how loving you are with each other. Many couples after a few years already find it hard to behave the way they did when they were freshly in love."

Yibo: "We don't just behave like that. We fall in love with each other every day. That's just a fact. Relationships are not as easy as many think. It's hard work. Because if you want it to work, you have to do something for it. But, I find it easy to work on our relationship every day because I love him and it makes me happy when he's happy."

Zhan: "Yibo is right. You can't just live in the day and hope that everything will be fine. We do something every day to make things so loving between us. Above all, we talk a lot about the things we may not have liked so much, and we emphasize what we especially liked. We tell each other every morning that we love each other. Yibo has brought me breakfast in bed every morning since my first overnight stay with him. He even learned extra cooking. He's just a great wonderful husband and father and always takes great care to make sure I'm wishfully happy."

Yibo: "You do the same with me. From the very beginning you supported me, backed me up and were by my side through everything. Every day when you wrap your arms around me, put your head on my shoulder, kiss me and tell me how much you love me, it makes me incredibly happy."

Julia: "I can understand very well what you mean. I have been married for 3 years and my husband is becoming more and more inattentive. I just thought he would try less. But when I see the two of you like this, I can see that I have also stopped trying hard."

A-Yuan came back to the office, crawled onto Zhan's lap and snuggled up to him. "Daddy I love you." He said softly in a sweet voice.

Zhan: "I love you too my beautiful son."

Yibo: "Isn't that great? Our son goes to his daddy and tells him he loves him. Just like that and for no reason."

Julia: "Yes, that's nice. I'm sure you guys grew up like that too, right? I mean in such loving families."

Zhan: "Well, I did. I had a wonderful childhood and my parents loved me adoringly. They raised me lovingly. And even when I came out to them, when I told them about my feelings for Yibo, they took me in their arms and said, hey we'll help you if we can. We want you to be happy, that's all that matters to us. I knew I could tell them I was gay without fear."

Yibo: "I grew up in a very cold and strict home. But there are different reasons for that, which I won't mention here. Let's just say, if some things had been different, my big brother and I would have had very loving parents. They weren't then. But they are today. They have worked on themselves and I now have a very warm, intimate and close relationship with both of them. I think they have also copied a little from my in-laws. After all, our parents are now close friends."

Julia: "I read that your brother got married last year?"

Yibo: "Yes, he married his partner. And on the same day, Zhan's cousin, who we had to thank for the kissing accident, became a father. He and his wife had healthy twins. A boy and a girl."

Zhan: "Oh that was a crazy day. The wedding was in the afternoon and had just started when my cousin wrote me a message that his wife was in labor and the babies were coming. Since his wife wanted me to assist her with the birth of the twins, which was what we had agreed upon, we had to see how we could make the wedding and the birth happen at the same time. So we waited until after the wedding ceremony, then I went to my brother-in-law and explained my dilemma with my cousin and his wife, after that my brother-in-law drove us to the maternity hospital after we brought our children to my parents. Yibo stood by my cousin in the waiting area and I held the expectant mom's hand, knowing that my brother-in-law was waiting for us."

Yibo: "For four hours, I sat in the waiting room with Zhan's cousin. And I knew very well how he was feeling right now. And then when Zhan came outside with the twins in his arms and put them in their dad's arms, we all cried with joy. We then stayed for another half hour, then took a cab to the wedding party and just made it to my brother and brother-in-law's farewell. We had missed everything else. We then went to my in-laws' house and snuggled into bed with our kids and fell asleep exhausted."

Julia: "That sounds very stressful indeed."

Zhan: "It was. But even worse was our friends' wedding three months ago. Yibo's best friend got married to his boyfriend in Taiwan. We flew with our two kids for the first time and they didn't like it at all. XinXin cried all the time and A-Yuan complained of nausea. When we arrived in Taiwan, our booked room was not ready, then the cribs were missing, after that we had no water in the room and then in the evening there was also a burst pipe in the room above us and all the water came down through the ceiling. All our stuff got wet."

Yibo: "Oh that was really bad. We sat in the lobby of the hotel with two sleeping children in our arms and called all the hotels. We luckily found a good hotel and when we got there, everything was perfectly prepared. And in such a short time. They even cleaned our clothes overnight and in the morning when we woke up we got them back clean and neat. Then at noon the wedding was to take place. It was quite an impressively large wedding crowd and there was pure chaos. Although they had planned and prepared everything perfectly, pretty much everything that could go wrong did. Which was probably mostly because the wedding was postponed by one day by the registrar because he mixed up two dates."

Zhan: "That's right. We felt really sorry for the two of them. We then called some friends and my cousin Yanli and they took the whole thing in hand and turned the disaster into a successful wedding after all."

Julia: "Wow, I'm always amazed. Despite your work, despite your kids and your own marriage and the time you take for yourselves, you still manage to be there for others."

Yibo: "Of course. All thanks to good organization and enthusiastic grandparents who are happy when their grandchildren come to visit them and stay overnight."

Zhan: "And yet Yibo doesn't like it at all when our children are not around him. He can't let them go, even for one night. After each birth, it took days and even weeks for him to even allow anyone else but him and me to hold the children. The others were only allowed to hold our daughter after 4 weeks. He did not allow anyone to come too close to her. He still gets up every night just to check on the kids."

Julia: "A little overprotective."

Zhan: "And possessive. But they're so little too, so it's totally okay. He's protective of his family and loves our kids to death."

Yibo: "I also love you adoringly. Not just our kids. I know it seems to many that I love my children more than Zhan. But that's not the case. I love Zhan like crazy. He is my whole life. I love the kids in a whole different way. And of course, the people around us only see the love for our children, because when they are around, I take care of them. Which is normal."

Zhan: "Honey, don't worry about it. It's obvious that we don't jump on each other when our kids are around. Besides, we don't have to constantly profess our love for each other in front of others. And everyone important to us knows how much you love me."

Julia: "So I can see how much you love Zhan. And that even though your children are here right now. And I can also understand why you love being with your kids so much. They are incredibly cute and so dear. I really think you are a great husband and father. I have no doubt about that."

Yibo: "Thank you Julia. And Zhan? I agree with you."

Julia: "You moved recently I read?"

Zhan: "Mn. Now that we have two kids and both should get their own room, we decided to move."

Yibo: "My in-laws bought us a house. It is closer to our business and has enough space for the four of us and a few guests. The kids can play in the garden without danger. It's just great."

Julia: "What are your plans for the future? For the business and also privately?"

Yibo: "We will continue as before. We run our business and take care of our marriage, be good fathers to our children."

Zhan: "There are no plans in the real sense. Sure as Yibo said, we'll keep our business going and maybe someday we'll set up a branch. We will continue to be loving parents and raise our children to hopefully be good people. And we'll continue to work to keep our marriage as good and loving as it is now."

Julia: "Okay, thank you very much. And I have no doubt that you will accomplish everything you set out to do."

Zhan/Yibo: "Thank you."

The photographer took a few more pictures of them, also as a family, with the children's faces pixelated out because Zhan and Yibo didn't want their faces to be seen in the magazine, and then Julia and the photographer said goodbye.

As Julia and the photographer left the office, Yibo leaned over to Zhan, gently stroked his cheek, kissed him and lovingly said, "I love you so much my honey. And I am infinitely grateful for your love."

"I love you, too. More than words could ever describe, you make me the happiest man in the world every day." Replied Zhan.

Their two children looked up at them and smiled as if they understood exactly what their fathers were talking about. And A-Yuan proudly said, "I have great fathers and a cute sister." He then kissed XinXin on the forehead and stroked her back.

After they decided to have a second child, this time it worked again on the first try and Zhan got pregnant again. During the really difficult pregnancy, Zhan had told Yibo again and again that this would be the last pregnancy and when XinXin was born, he had an operation to prevent him from getting pregnant again.

But, that does not mean that the two are not planning to have a third child. Although Zhan himself does not want to get pregnant again and can not, but the two want to adopt a child. They said that they have enough love to give that it is enough for another child that has no parents and is looking for a loving home. They have already submitted all the documents and received the confirmation to adopt a child. But they didn't want to tell Julia that. This is their sweet secret.

And in just two weeks they will be able to pick up their 6 year old daughter Lila from the orphanage. And already they are very smitten with their daughter, whom they have been visiting regularly at the orphanage for four months now, and have had her over for the night several times.

As Yibo sat in his office chair watching his beautiful husband and their wonderful children together play, he felt this beautiful tingling in his stomach and his whole body. He loves just that! He can't imagine anything more gorgeous than that. His life simply couldn't be more perfect.

And Zhan also looked at Yibo smiling and beaming with happiness. Because not only is he married to the man of his dreams, but he has two wonderful children with him and leads a life with him as he had always wanted. Zhan would not want to change anything. Because he feels his life with his family and now soon with Lila, just perfect!

While the two were in the office playing with their children, the author slowly pulled back and felt that we should now let the four, soon to be five, live their lives. The author closes the office door with a smile and silently says goodbye to them.

End

A/N: We have reached the end of the book. I know I skipped a lot by making a big time jump. But from the beginning, I went into this story pretty clueless, hoping I'd get at least 20 chapters together. Some chapters seemed to write themselves, others took me forever to come up with something. And also now I had thought for more than a week and finally I came up with the idea to end the story with a long interview. It has now become 33 chapters and over 70,000 words. More than expected. And for sure there will be a new story soon, with which I hope I can inspire you again. Only so much can be revealed, a cover and title are already existing! At this point I want to thank you for all the votes and comments. You are super awesome!
