"Dad what are you doing?" Yibo came into cabinet and hugged sitting Qiren from behind. The latter one hold his hands and smiled

"Being this clingy, something is bothering you no?"

"Mn, i need to be babied now" Yibo pouted and sobbed silently "i was such a fool dad, thinking even for a second i really could stop loving Zhan. You told me the same but i still made silly mistake and..."

"Love really makes us silly baby, but this is one of the most charming side of it. so as expected Zhan is the reason you missed two working days at the office?"

"I'm sorry dad, i mixed personal and work matters and now feel ashamed to face my employees. Sure everyone is talking about me there now"

"Communication is the key, just giving instructions from home won't help it. everyone makes mistakes but hiding is the worst choice. Wipe this lovely eyes of yours and brace yourself.  and Zhan..."

"He found out about Yi Tian and doesn't answers my calls, i sent messages too but, you think he hates me?"

"My future son in law isn't like this"

"You defend him as always"

"That boy has too pure heart Yibo, i'm sure he just can't fight with you that is why prefers to calm down himself before talking. He was with me for all those three years and have seen his expressions while talking about you. i want the best for you and the fact i approve on your relationship mean a lot yibo"

"He is the only one in this world and..."

"He loves you"

"Mn, he does" Yibo wiped his tears and widely smiled "i'll patiently wait for him dad, it won't take long time no?"

"this isn't called patiently"

"i know right?" Yibo gigged and kissed his cheek "i just... miss him already"

*****

Cheng opened the door and Zhan rushed in like rocket, throwing the phone on the sofa. Cheng sighed and followed him back "guess you need brother in rescue again"

"I think so, where is Wen Qing?"

"Jiejie needed some help, so she will be back later.. we can talk freely"

"damn brother, I just can't stay still, it's almost two days i locked myself in the flat to think quietly, but in the  vain..."

Seeing his condition Cheng sat down and patted his head. Since the childhood surprisingly Zhan loved when someone was touching his hair, it was making him calmer and Cheng knew it very well "so what happened? Last time we met you was sad, now it looks like you're upset.  Didn't Yibo break up with him?"

"He couldn't" Zhan painfully laughed "cause they never were in the relationship"

"What?"

"Yuan, Yibo's friend he is the real bf of Yi Tian. They just lied to us, no actually this show was only for me"

"Then why the hell are you frowning? to think well, Isn't this happy news? Did you two talk about this already?"

"No, i didn't give him the chance to explain. It hurts hearing this from other person when Yibo could do this himself"

"Zhan"

"Gosh i have too mixed feelings Cheng" Zhan crossly mumbled and rubbed his temples "i felt happy yes, he didn't have other man but at the same time i became too angry. Other than just crazy jealousy our situation felt too wrong for someone like me. I mean i wanted so badly to make Yibo mine again, to touch and kiss him but knew he belo

nged to someone and i always hated taking something from others"

"I know"

"The guilt was eating me from inside but tried my best to just silence it, cause my love...it's too strong, even principles couldn't stop me and now i feel like real fool, for believing all this and plus fear the things what happened between us during this trip, maybe was fake too. This is something that scares me to death, cause it will kill me brother"

"Yes you're really fool, can't agree more" Cheng rolled eyes and hit his head

"What is wrong with you?"

"You're talking about your Yibo, don't you know him better than me? think more could he do something like this?"

Zhan lowered the head and all sweet, lovely moments appeared in his mind, the words, stares, touches... He couldn't help himself but smile  imagining Yibo's face "no way, he is too pure for this"

"Right, i know he did wrong but Zhan, you hurt him before and Yibo forgave you without asking the reasons, you at least can listen to him. I'm sure he can explain"

"He keeps calling me and i just... He must be very worrying now, I left him alone during hard time... Again. Gosh i'm idiot no?"

"Don't go hard on yourself, your reaction was natural but don't take long. Forgiveness isn't weakness but strength, he already did it, now it's your time" Cheng  got up and walked towards the kitchen to cook something for them, turning back he gasped seeing Zhan who was already putting on his jacket "wait are you already leaving?"

"Mn, i'm going to talk to him"

"Zhan it's almost midnight already, how are you going to get in? Old boss Qiren will be upset"

"I have my own ways, bodyguards and even his dog are in my team" Zhan smiled and hugged his brother "i'm lucky having you, anytime it's only you who can cool my mind and show right way"

"IKR? Already feel like "love guru" Cheng laughed and petted  his back "i just want you, to be happy"

"See you later brother, thanks" Zhan ran to door, waving his hand

"Don't break your neck please" Cheng called loudly and shook his head "yes, my brother is really main lead in some romantic drama, they truly give me headache"

*****

It was kinda easy work for Zhan to sneak into Yibo's house, he just messaged Chen and the latter one met him at the entrance. Fairy who was running around, happily hopped on him and Zhan sweetly asked her to be quiet. Lights were off and he guessed Qiren was asleep. About Yibo... Zhan knew he wasn't, even for a few seconds before he was calling.

"Zhan, did something bad happened?"

"I need to talk to Yibo, it's serious"

"But..."

"I know, just let me climb on the wall"

"What? You aren't romeo Zhan, gonna break your legs"

"It won't be first time anyway" Zhan laughed noticing Chen's shocked face and pat his shoulder "don't worry, uncle Qiren won't find out" 

carefully climbing over the window Zhan jumped into Yibo's bedroom and was searching for switch in the dark, when suddenly lights got turned on and he fell down from the shock. Qiren was standing in front of him with wide opened eyes, holding basket

"Thought it was a cat and now i see, bunny with long legs, Like Yibo calls you. Just to know Zhan, this house has doors too, to come in"

"Uncle" Zhan scratched his nape and awkwardly smiled "what are you doing here?"

"At my house?"

"No in this room"

"Yibo moved into another one, at the end of the corridor" Qiren hold himself to not laugh, watching  Zhan's scared, embarrassed  face "i really want to hit you for making Yibo cry again but as long as you're already here it's ok" he messed Zhan's hair as always and smiled "talk to him dear, you have my permission. life is already short, don't waste precious time on silly fights. But i have to warn you,  not do naughty things...at least Here"

"i won't... here. Thank you so much dad" Zhan bowed and ran to Yibo's room. the latter one was sitting next to window and looking down at his phone, hearing the ringtone Yibo shook and turned back, Zhan took out his phone and sighed, almost 100 missed calls. 

"gege"

"don't make this face please, i amn't here to scold you"

"Sorry I know you needed time but..." Yibo's lips formed baby pout and Zhan felt his heart melting "still i just wanted to hear your voice"

"Let's talk Yibo, i came for this. since you're back our relationship was too messy and full of mixed feelings and lies, it was hard time for both of us. I want to make everything clear"

"Before i gave two promises to you Zhan ge, one after our first night and another after our break up. From them i could keep only one" Yibo took Zhan's hand between his palms and caressed it "that only this warm, tiny hand can touch my body, only those soft lips can kiss me, how could i let someone do it? you should have known best Zhan. How strong my love always was and is now too, maybe i was bad at expressing it"

"Yibo, the more you loved me, the more was pain caused by me. how could i have hope you still wanted me? i'm unworthy"

"Although it seemed like that, i did never hated you. The lie it was more for protecting myself. Let me tell you from the beginning. Yi Tian and yuan are dating for more than five years, i knew him since art school days but sure from the online chat. I got quite lucky he was studying in the same city and cause of yuan's demand we started living together. I was having strong depression at the beginning cause of being far from everyone, unable to eat or sleep. He did everything to help me and slowly we became like real brothers. the love he has towards me is real, that is why he played very well

When dad called me and asked to come back, first thing came into my mind was you. All that time i forbid everyone to talk about you and suddenly imagining being close again scared me to death. that was when i realized love wasn't gone. How was you living? Did you have lover? Did you really forget me? Was you happy without me? All this questions made me crazy and asked myself, will you be able to stay apart from him? Seeing you again could i stop myself from falling in your arms? I needed something or someone to protect myself so that is why i asked Yi Tian to play my boyfriend. He thought this was very childish but still accepted me. showing you i was strong and happy felt like winning but too silly no? from the moment i saw your beautiful eyes and smile, my heart filled with love more than before" Yibo paused and hesitantly touched Zhan's lowered face, feeling the wetness on his cheeks he gasped "i made you cry again, every time seeing your tears, it hurts me more so please"

"guess i'm already too old" Zhan smiled with teary eyes "i made you suffer too much"

"The happiness you give me is even stronger gege so..."

"There is someone who hates me to death Yibo"

"What?"

"The reason i broke up with you, wasn't only for your future. but it's also cause someone who can do anything to destroy me"

"The one we met at the cinema? I can't remember his face but the aura he was carrying, it scared me"

"Yes, what happened between us, it isn't only about me but my family so... I can't tell you details but you have to know Yibo, being with me maybe it puts you in the danger too"

"Gege i love you to the point nothing matters for me anymore, I won't force to tell me, just gonna stay next to you" Yibo got on his lap and Zhan leaned head at his chest, tightly holding his waist. Yibo run fingers in his hair and whispered "i'm sorry"

"Gege is more"

"i tried many times to tell you but"

"i know, it was me who stopped you"

"i hate that woman"

"what?" Zhan raised his face and Yibo took chance to kiss his forehead "Lina?"

"she wants to take you from me, can i fire her?"

"does she works well?"

"she does" Yibo pouted "that means i can't no?"

"mn" Zhan pulled him closer and run his fingers under Yibo's shirt, whispering behind his ear "you're the yummiest and i have best taste, next time I won't even listen to her ok?" 

"gege" Yibo moaned cause of strong bite on his neck, Zhan grinned and carried him to the bed 

"serves you right, now you know too what jealousy means" 

"evil"

"it's bad, i can't punish you now"

"why?"

"dad said so"

"we have to respect him"

"right, but i'm going to crush you in my arms" Zhan took off his shoes and fell on the bed with him, Yibo giggled and pointed to the wardrobe "bunny outfit, i still have it"

"not gonna wear it"

"even i ask with puppy eyes?"

"you use my weakness"

"will you accompany me to the office tomorrow?"

"sure, from now on imn't going to leave you alone, even just for one second"

***

"are you fucking telling me, that you really fell in love with that trash? when we're finally at right place and time to get our revenge?"

"you're the one who told me to get close to him"

"that faggot will never like you, don't you know? just go with out plan and forget your feelings"

"i'll, he is going to regret not loving me"

having people around, who really cares and causes us make right choices is one of the biggest luck in our life, I love their families 🥰 sorry for kinda boring chapter but I wanted to make them back together as soon as possible😁
