"Granny Granny..." Yibo called his Granny excited as the entered into his house. Xiao Xingchen just followed his with a smile in his face.
Granny came out on hearing from her room. Yibo went near her and she caressed his hair. She smiled and looked at Xiao Xingchen.  Xiao Xingchen too went near her.
"What happened dears?" She said as he hugged her nephews.
"Granny, do you know our Professors decided to take us to a trip?" Xiao Xingchen and Yibo said excitedly.
"I see. Did they announced today?" Grqnny said.
"Yes." Xiao Xingchen said. Yibo wanted to say something but Granny stopped him.
"First both of you go to your room change you clothes...I will listen to you later..." Granny said as he went to kitchen.
Wang Yibo and Xiao Xingchen went to their room.
As soon as Yibo and Xingchen entered into their room. Yibo jumped on his bed instead of changing clothes.
Xiao Xingchen smiled.

"How is your day today?" Xiao Xingchen said as he take out two two shirts from wardrobe.

"Brother...why are you asking this to me?" Yibo said with an annoyed face.
Xiao Xingchen sat on the bed near Yibo. He caressed Yibo's hair.
"Yibo, you are now older..."

"Hm...what do you want to say?"

"You need to behave friendly with everyone even if you don't like that person."

"You want me to behave nicely with that jerk. Xiao Zhan is so rude."

"If you don't like things then just leave it. No need to criticize it."
"Uh?!"

"If you don't like  Xiao Zhan, then just avoid him but when he is with you...you have to be nice."

"Okay...but the both brothers are same with arrogant attitude."

"Um...some people have very short tempered...may be he is one... I don't feel bad when they are around us."

"Brother?! Do you like them?!"

"What do mean by I like them? How can I person fall in love with in a day? Besides I don't feel that they are bad..."

"No...I don't mean liking like that....I mean do you like them like friend." Yibo said as he face palmed.

"Oh, I see." Xiao Xingchen said.

"Besides what do you mean by that they are not bad?" Yibo said as he got little annoyed as he remembered Xiao Zhan.

"My pretty little Jasmine. You need to learn to adjust with your surroundings. Some people may look soft but they may be bad guy, while some people may be arrogant but they have a big kind and soft heart."
Yibo turned his head annoyedly as he know what his brother want to tell him.
"Okay I don't brother you. Just don't mess with them."
Xiao Xingchen said as he pinched on Yibo's cheek. Yibo nodded his head in agreement.
"Here your clothes. Now got to bathroom and get refresh." Xiao Xingchen said as he went into another bathroom.
"Why should I have to change my clothes? I didn't play in dust today." Yibo said to himself lazily thinking that his brother will not hear him.
"If you not change your clothes, then I will Granny to not allow you to go to trip." Xiao Xingchen said from his bathroom.
'He heard what I said. He is really something.' Yibo thought.
"Ah...no...I am changing my clothes." Yibo said as he went to the washroom from refreshment.

After sometime, both of them came down stairs.
"Granny, we are back." Yibo said.
Granny already served snacks for them  as he know that Yibo eats lot and he always wants something to eat after he return from university. She waiting for them.
"What is it?" Yibo said excitedly.
"Discover yourself." Granny said.
"Veg manchuria!!" Both Xiao Xingchen and Yibo said together in excitement.
"My stomach is growling." Yibo said putting his hand on his stomach and elbowed Xiao Xingchen whose mouth has already water to see delicious dish.

Soon they have their seats started eating.
"Yibo, you wanted to tell me something excitedly." Granny said.
"Oh, our professors decided to take us to a trip. I and brother wanna join it." Yibo said with mouth full of food.
"Granny, do you know this time our professors decided to take us to trip to Lanlin forest." Xiao Xingchen said.
Hearing to the Lanling forest, suddenly granny's face darken.
"What happened Granny?" Yibo and Xiao Xingchen said together worriedly.

"No need of going to the trip." Granny said in a strict voice.
"Why?" Yibo and Xiao Xingchen said in disappointment.
"It is just a trip. If you want to have fun, then I can arrange a party here." Granny said.

"But we wanna go to the first forest trip." Yibo and Xiao Xingchen said together.
"Why you want to go to the forest? Why it is so important?" Granny asked.
Lines of worried appeared on granny's  face.
She was afraid of losing Wang Yibo because it was the place were she found Yibo and she know very well that Yibo might fall in danger if he go there.
"Granny, it is an educational trip. Professors asked us to take our books along with us." Yibo said.
"Granny, we have already signed for the trip as usual."
"Can't it be canceled?" Granny asked.
"Yes...but why are you so worried, professors will accompain us as usual." Xiao Xingchen said trying to make his Granny to agree.
Granny felt relief when Yibo said that it is educational trip and professors will accompain them.
"Okay. Then you can go." Granny said in relief.
"The trip will be a day after tomorrow." Yibo said smiling brightly again
"Since it is an educational trip and professors are accompanying, then you can go to the trip but if for any reason the creatures of that forest come in front of you then bow to them. Don't mess with the creatures of that forest. Don't roam around alone in the forest."
Granny then looked at Xiao Xingchen.
"Xiao Xingchen, never let your brother go alone anywhere. Just protect him."
Xiao Xingchen smiled  to his granny.

"Don't worry. Granny. I will protect and take care of him."

Xiao Zhan and Xue  Yang returned to their mansion. Xiao Zhan went to his room. He took his clothes from wardrobe and went to bathroom for shower. He entered into his bathroom. He stood in front of the mirror.
"I am not that bad by appearance. I look enough good make someone fall for me."
Xiao Zhan said and chuckled to himself.
He closed his eyes and remembered the series of event that happened in university. He remembered how he meet Wang Yibo.
"Wang Yibo...I never see such a bold human. Generally human don't dare to be with supernatural beings. But you don't afraid to us. Not only this, you are so intelligent that supernatural beings I  our class failed to beat you education. You are making me feel something knew that I don't know."
He then took shower and came out.

  He went to Xue Yang's room to discover what Xue Yang was doing.
"Xue Yang, what are you doing?" Xiao Zhan said as he entered into Xue Yang's room.
Xue Yang was absent there.
"Xue Yang, my brother is really something, now where did he go without changing his clothes?" Xiao Zhan  said to himself.

He then went to the royal garden. There he found Xue Yang sitting on chair.

(Imagined as if he is smiling here.)

He was smiling to himself.
"Why don't you change your clothes?" Xiao Zhan asked Xue Yang.
This was when Xue Yang came to real world from his thoughts.
"What are you thinking so deeply?" Xiao Zhan asked.
"Nothing."
"Really!? Then why were you smiling to yourself."
"I just remember what happened today in our university."Xue Yang said .
"Do you know I am feeling very excited for the trip?" Xue Yang said.

"Me too. But why are you feeling so excited. Today was first day for you and I think you failed to make friends."

"So what? I will accompain Yibo's brother." Xue Yang said. Then suddenly he smirked and said
"What about you? Do you have friends? Yibo is avoiding you."

"I am feeling really excited because I will make friends and I will make someone to be me..." Xiao Zhan  replied with a smile.
