|PAST (PART 9)|

••••••••••••••••••••••

After eating the five of them started to explore the island. They did a lot of fun things all together like sailing, scuba diving, sun bathing, horse back riding, and trying to catch cute fluffy bunnies.

The bunnies actually belonged to Wei Ying who decided to bring them on the island on their first anniversary. Sizhui was pleased after knowing that the bunnies weren't eaten by his Aniē who loves to joke about eating rabbits.

'A-Yuan. Your Diē and I will go back now. You three can just stay for a little whole before going back too.'

'Alright Aniē, we'll be back before sun down.'

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan walked back while holding each others hands.

'Lan Zhan do you think we can have another child.'

'Tired of A-Yuan? Do you want more kids around?' Lan Zhan watched his wife's reaction carefully.

'No I mean I just want another child since A-Yuan's already a grown up. I want to watch my child grow starting from being an infant until he or she can take care of him/herself. And yes since you know I'm very fond of children.'

Wei Ying explained while fidgetting a lot. He either played with his tassel or some small rocks that they passed by on their way back to the house.

'Then let's talk about that tonight.'

'Eh. What do you mean tonight, Lan Zhan?' Lan Zhan just ignored his wife and went inside the house.

•~•Back At The Warehouse•~•

Back at the warehouse the others are all busy since they are all preparing for Jin Ling's birthday which is next month. It was also a good idea for Jin Ling to join Wei Ying and Lan Zhan's vacation trip along with the two juniors.

'Zixuan ah where should we do the surprise birthday party for
A-Ling?' Jiang Yanli who's busy with crossing the decorations asked her husband who's busy with the invitations.

'I think we should do it in our home.'

'I think that would be great Bro Zixuan but I also think you should do the surprise birthday party at Jin Ling's favorite place.' Nie Huaisang interrupted.

'And where would that be?' Jiang Cheng asked.

'At the place where A-Yuan and Jin Ling first met.' Wen Ning who's been quiet in the corner said.

'And where's that place?' Jiang Yanli asked while rubbing her baby bump before drinking her tea. Yanli was pregnant again and it is the surprise gift that she will give A-Ling.

'A-Yuan told me that he met A-Ling right in the middle of the forest where a beautiful place is hidden. That place is very amazing A-Yuan said and there is a crystal clear waterfalls and a lot of flowers making it more enchanting.'

The others silently listened to Wen Ning who's busy remembering what Sizhui told him.

'And in what particular part of the forest is it? Is it here in this woods or somewhere else?' Zixuan asked.

'I know where that place is.' Xiao Xingchen who just walked in after hearing what Wen Ning said told the others where that particular place is.

'I think that's the best way to surprise our A-Ling right Zixuan ah?' Jiang Yanli gave his husband a sweet smile.

'If it's ok with you then I'm also fine with it as long as A-Ling's happy on his birthday.'

So they all agreed to do the surprise party for Jin Ling, in the woods where Jin Ling and Lan Sizhui first met after being apart for 10 years.

Since Sizhui was always with Wei Ying and Lan Zhan in his childhood days and when he turned 15 he was then sent to Lan Qiren for further learnings.

Jin Ling and Lan Sizhui were both inseparable when they were both still young. At the age of 5 Sizhui left with Wei Ying and Lan Zhan leaving Jin Ling all alone.

They still communicate with each other through calls and messages but never in real where they would be face to face with each other.

When Sizhui came back he was already 15, both Jin Ling and him were learning a few more things under Lan Qiren. That's where their feelings for each other started.

•~•Meanwhile at the Airport•~•

Nie Mingjue just arrived and was waiting for Lan Xichen who volunteered to fetch him. He planned to surprise his little lover and fiancee Jin Guangyao.

'Mingjue ah.' Lan Xichen yelled at Nie Mingjue who's busy looking around.

'Ah, Xichen ah I thought you're going to be late.' They both shook hands and greeted each other before making their way to Xichen's car that is parked right outside of the airport.

'How's A-Yao? Is he doing fine? Eating well?' Nie Mingjue asked. He desperately wanted to know how his little lover is doing.

'He misses you a lot and won't even try to have fun with us. He eats properly but alone inside his room, he never goes out and always sulks in his room. I even tried to get him out but he just wouldn't listen.' Nie Mingjue frowned and felt guilty after hearing what his little lover's condition is.

'I shouldn't have left him alone for too long. A-Yao has a lot of issues especially with being left alone for too long ,since you know what happened between him and his parents right?' Xichen nodded remembering what Jin Guangyao told him back then.

'What should I do to make up for being away from him for too long?' Nie Mingjue asked while trying to think of a solution to ease his little lover's loneliness.

'Take him out on a date and spend your time with him for the rest of the day. Never leave his side and always shower him with surprises and love. That should make him happy.'

'Alright then I'll be needing the help from you guys.'

'Don't worry we'll help you out. The others are already informed since I called Wanyin and told him to put the phone on loud speaker. Everyone heard the plan right?' Lan Xichen asked his eyes looking at the phone for a few seconds before going back to the road ahead.

'Yes we got it. Don't worry Dàgē we'll take care of everything for you. You just have to come up with the surprises for A-Yao.' Nie Huaisang replied.

Nie Mingjue thank them before starting to make the plans. He wanted to make his little lover very happy.

'You should take him to places that's fun and very lively like the amusement park, places that have amazing views and so on.' Xiao Xingchen said while searing the internet for more wonderful places to go to.

'Alright I think the amusement park would be the first stop and then I'll last take him to the place where I proposed and confessed my love for him.'

'That's sounds great Dàgē while you do the thinking we'll distract A-Yao for you.' Jiang Yanli said.

'Alright well talk about this later when we arrive their.' Xichen then ended the call. The whole ride back to the warehouse was very silent since Nie Mingjue is thinking very deeply while Xichen is focused on driving.

They arrive at the warehouse very quickly and the others started to distract Jin Guangyao who finally decided to go outside for some fresh air.

'A-Yao come let's drink some tea I brewed inside.' Jiang Yanli said trying to get Jin Guangyao back inside the warehouse.

'No thanks Dàjiě. I want to be alone and I need some fresh air.' Guangyao smiled and politely declined Jiang Yanli's offer.

Jin Guangyao proceeded to go outside but was soon stop when Nie Huaisang his brother-in-law blocked his way.

'Huaisang what's wrong? Why are you blocking the way?'

'I'm so sorry brother-in-law but you can't go outside since ahh... it is raining hard.' Nie Huaisang tried to reason out.

'Eh! But there's no rain at all. Huaisang let me pass now.' Jin Guangyao was already getting irritated.

'Come on already let me pass. What's gotten into you guys? Why are you all trying to prevent me from going outside?' Jin Guangyao yelled.

He was already fuming so the others sweat dropped and back away from him except for Nie Huaisang who's standing in front of him.

Jin Guangyao tried to walk pass Huaisang but he was block again. Since he was already pissed he tried to push Huaisang but was stopped by someone hugging him from behind.

'A-Yao.' Hearing his name being called by his lover, his eyes started to water until tears started to continuously fall from his eyes.

'Mingjue. H-how? W-why are y-you here?' He stuttered while trying hard not to sob.

'I decided to ditch my job and spend time with my Xiao Yao.' Nie Mingjue was already feeling more guilty for leaving his little lover all alone.

'A-Yao, I'm sorry for leaving you behind. How can I make it up to you?' Nie Mingjue added and pleaded his little lover who's now sobbing hard.

The others decided to let them have their moment so they all went to the game room.

'Stay and never ever leave me alone again.' Jin Guangyao said before giving his lover a long and sweet kiss. Nie Mingjue was taken a back but soon he responded to his little lover's kisses.

The two started a make out session and they only pulled apart when both needed air.

'A-Yao, I promise that I won't ever leave you again. If I'm going on my business trips you're always coming with me. I won't let you be alone ever again.' With that Nie Mingjue again gave his little lover a passionate kiss.

'Okay you two enough already. You can continue your lovey dovey moments when you get to your shared room.' Xue Yang interrupted them earning a hard smack on the back of his head from yours truly Jiang Cheng. Xiao Xingchen just gave a light chuckle at seeing his lover's reaction.

'Don't ruin someone else's moment just because yours was ruined by Jin Guangyao back then.'

The others silently laughed at the back, upon remembering that funny moment, where Xue Yang and Xiao Xingchen were about to make love and Jin Guangyao suddenly barged in their shared room perfectly ruining the moment.

'Aissh why remember that time again A-Cheng?' Xue Yang asked while rubbing his head.

Nie Mingjue silently sneaked Jin Guangyao out and both went straight to their shared room.

That night the two made love till their hearts content. It was not only them who had a very blissful night but also Xue Yang and Xiao Xingchen, Jiang Cheng and Lan Xichen, and Song Lan and Wen Ning.

~•~BACK AT WEI ISLAND~•~

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan decided to talk about the child topic the next day since both of them are very tired. Even though tired the two still made love with each other till their hearts content. After a few rounds the two finally fell a sleep.

While the three who's been outside the house eating dinner decided to retire too and rest for tomorrow they still have some exploring to do.

'A-Yuan why can't you just sleep next to me. Your Aniē and Diē won't mind right since the two of us are already lovers.' Jin Ling whined since he and Sizhui doesn't share the same room together.

'A-Ling you know we can't and besides Aniē might tell your Diē if he finds out that the two of us slept together in one bed.'

'But-No more buts A-Ling, go now and take a rest. I'll see you tomorrow. Good Night A-Ling.' Lan Sizhui stop his lover's whining and gave him a quick kiss before going to his room leaving a blushing Jin Ling.

'G-good night A-Yuan.' Jin Ling yelled before quickly entering his room. His face was still red but he decided to sleep since his too was tired.
