DBSNTM-44 Only He Knew How Good This Hidden Treasure Was

Yibo drove Zhan to the airport.

They met up with Shenhai there.

This was the second time Shenhai had seen Yibo since he returned.

Shenhai said first, “Just let the driver bring Zhan over. It’s too troublesome for you to send him here.”

Hearing this, Yibo glanced at Zhan and said, “I’m not that busy.”

Zhan looked calm, and he couldn’t help but call him bluff in his heart.

He was clearly very busy, but now he pretended that he was fine.

Shenhai nodded slightly, and he didn’t want to say anything about it.

But Yibo continued, “Mr. Xiao, please take care of my wife when you arrive at Chongqing.”

He had been indifferent and emotionless in front of outsiders. But it could not cover up the threats in his tone.

Even Zhan could tell that, let alone Shenhai.

Shenhai stiffened for a moment before he calmly said, “He’s my grandson. I know what to do.”

Hearing this, Yibo only put on a faint smile.

Shenhai turned to Zhan and said, “Let’s go.”

Zhan walked in with his luggage. He didn’t forget to turn around and give Yibo a phone signal.

He would call him when he got to Chongqing.

Yibo wore a luxurious tailor-made suit today. His tall and spare frame cut an impressive figure. Standing in the airport where people came and went, he looked like glowing and attracted all the attention. He was proud, but now he looked lonely somehow.

Zhan turned around and looked at him for a few times before walking towards the security checkpoint.

Then he noticed that Shenhai looked terrible.

It must be because he had been threatened by Yibo, and he was embarrassed about it.

Although Yibo wanted Shenhai to take care of him, Zhan knew that he should help Shenhai push his luggage.

Shenhai didn’t bring his assistant or secretary, so Zhan could only take over all the things.

Seeing Zhan take over the suitcase in his hand, Shenhai couldn’t help but turn to look at him.

Zhan replied with a smile.

He had hardly been alone with Shenhai before. Now it was a little awkward to him.

***

Fortunately, Shenhai did not want to talk to him. After boarding the plane, they both rested.

Two hours later, the plane landed at Chongqing Airport.

The hotel sent a car to pick them up.

Zhan turned his phone on and found that there were two missed calls from Yibo.

He replied to Yibo by message. “Just got off the plane.”

About two seconds later, Zhan received his reply saying “Got it”.

Just as he put down his phone, Shenhai said, “We’re going to a dinner party tonight. There is nothing in the afternoon.”

After Shenhai got into the car, he closed his eyes to rest.

When he said that, his eyes remained closed.

After arriving at the hotel, Zhan took a shower and had a long sleep.

It was afternoon when he woke up.

He ordered some food from room service before looking at his phone.

There was only one unread message from Yibo: [send me your hotel address.]

Zhan imagined Yibo sitting in his office and frowning as he typed the message on his phone.

Zhan couldn’t help but laugh.

Zhan felt that Yibo was like the father who was worried about his son and asked him to send him the address of the hotel.

Although this imagination was funny, Zhan still sent him the address.

In the evening, Zhan accompanied Shenhai to the dinner party.

Those who came to the dinner were all old men. And Zhan could see that they had a good relationship with Shenhai.

After a few days, Zhan finally knew why Shenhai was here on business. He just wanted to meet his old friends.

Shenhai did not only come to get in touch with old friends, but he also used Zhan’s identity to earn respect for himself.

After all, he had been abroad for many years. He was not very intimate with these old friends.

But if he had a grandson who married into the Wangs, they would respect him no matter what.

After knowing Shenhai’s intention, Zhan’s expression became colder.

When those old men spoke to him, Zhan just responded indifferently instead of warmly.

The older these people were, the more they cared about others’ attitude to them. A few of them saw Zhan like this and their faces went an ugly green.

In the end, they didn’t have a pleasant meal.

After the meal, Zhan and Shenhai returned to the hotel together.

They didn’t say anything on their way back.

When they took the elevator in the hotel, Shenhai suddenly said, “Zhan, don’t feel that I’m using you. Everything I’m doing is for our family.”

Shenhai’s words put him on the moral high ground.

For their family.

“Your sister deserves better.”

“Don’t forget that you’re also a Xiao.”

“I’m doing this for our family.”

Everyone had their own reasons for using me.

But what about me?

Should I just let them to do that and accept my fate?

Zhan turned to look at Shenhai. Under the blazing light in the elevator, his fair face went even colder.

He stared at Shenhai. “But only my family hurts me most during all these years.”

Hearing this, Shenhai tensed up, and his expression became complicated.

After a while, Shenhai said, “Your father and your sister were stupid and did the wrong things. Those will not happen again.”

The elevator stopped at their floor and opened.

Zhan walked out before Shenhai.

“Zanilla was just foolish to find someone to kill me?” After he said that, Zhan was about to leave.

Then he suddenly remembered something. He turned to look at Shenhai and said, “Grandpa, I have been wondering about something.”

Shenhai frowned slightly and looked stony-faced. Probably because of Zhan’s words, he had a very ugly look on his face.

“Why did the Wangs agree that Zanilla and Yibo got engaged? Even if Yibo was truly a disfigured and impotent man, he could easily find a wife better than Zanilla.”

Zhan might be able to deceive Jianmin with his small tricks. But those were unnecessary in front of Shenhai.

It was better to ask him directly.

There was a flash of vigilance in Shenhai’s eyes. Then, he said coldly, “It has nothing to do with you. You just need to be the young mistress of the Wangs. No matter how much you hate your father and your sister, they are your family. The blood in your bones belongs to the Xiaos.”

This was not the first time Zhan had heard such words.

Zhan did not expect Shenhai to answer his question, but such words made him laugh out loud.

Then, Zhan said coldly, “It is the heart that makes blood. Can you make my heart become yours?”

Shenhai’s expression immediately changed.

Zhan smiled and left..

Shenhai and Yibo were similar. Both of them liked to control others.

However, Shenhai’s control was obvious, while Yibo’s was invisible but more powerful.

Shenhai wanted to return the day after tomorrow. But Zhan did not want to stay for another day and wanted to go back tomorrow.

When Zhan opened his suitcase to pack, he received a call from Yibo.

“You just returned to the hotel?”

“Yeah.” Zhan sat down on the bed. He was inevitably affected by those things during these days.

After a moment of silence, Yibo asked, “What happened?”

He probably sensed that Zhan’s mood was down, so Yibo lowered his voice a lot.

Zhan was moved as he said, “It’s fine. I just want to go back.”

“Tomorrow?”

“Yeah.”

“I’ll pick you up.”

After talking to Yibo on the phone for a while, Zhan felt much better. He quickly tidied up his things and went to sleep.

***

The next morning, Zhan ignored Shenhai and left the hotel for the airport.

He was tired of the people and things of the Xiaos.

On the plane, Zhan texted Yibo and turned off his phone.

When he thought that he would be able to see Yibo in two hours, his heart jumped with joy.

After getting off the plane, he went out of the airport and turned his phone on, only to find that Yibo did not reply to his message. Instead, there were some missed calls from Ziyi.

“Zhan?”

Someone called him from behind.

Zhan thought that he had misheard and did not care. Then someone patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw Haoxuan.

Zhan was a little surprised. “Haoxuan?”

After Haoxuan explained everything about that dinner, Zhan did not hate him that much. Haoxuan looked warm and kind.

He looked at Zhan’s suitcase and asked, “Where are you going?”

“I just returned from a business trip in Chongqing.” Then Zhan noticed that Haoxuan didn’t have an assistant, an agent, or a suitcase around him. “What about you?”

“I just came back from a program in the other city. There were no more tickets, so they took the next flight back.” Haoxuan looked around and said, “Didn’t Yibo come pick you up?”

“Maybe he hasn’t got here. I have to call him.”

At this moment, Zhan’s phone rang and he got a new text.

It was from Yibo. [I have something to do. Bowen will pick you up.]

Zhan’s face turned cold slightly, and he replied to Yibo with the word [OK.]

This small change in Zhan’s expression did not escape Haoxuan’ eyes, “There will be a traffic jam when you go back. If Yibo hasn’t come, I can drive you back now.”

Zhan nodded. “Haoxuan, sorry for that. And thank you.”

Haoxuan took out a mask and put it on. Then he took over the suitcase in Zhan’s hand. “Follow me.”

Zhan wanted to say that he could take it himself. But Haoxuan had walked far away, so Zhan had to follow up.

Feeling that a few girls were looking at Haoxuan, Zhan suddenly remembered that Haoxuan was a celebrity. What if someone recognized him…

Thus, Zhan slowed down and deliberately lagged behind Haoxuan by a certain distance.

Haoxuan put Zhan’s suitcase in the car. He turned around and saw Zhan sneaking over like a thief.

He couldn’t help but laugh. “You look more suspicious in this gesture.”

Zhan was a little embarrassed, but he still thought that it was safer to be careful.

He pulled open the door and got into the car.

Haoxuan was driving. If Zhan sat in the back seat, it would make him look like a driver. It was not polite, so Zhan sat in the passenger seat.

The car drove forward steadily. Zhan took out his phone and called Ziyi back.

But Ziyi didn’t answer it. It was hung up automatically.

Zhan felt a little uneasy. Did something happen to Ziyi again?

Just as he was worried about Ziyi, Ziyi called him back.

Zhan picked up the phone. “Ziyi.”

“Zhan, where are you? Why did you turn off your phone?” Ziyi sounded serious.

“I was on the plane. What’s going on?” Zhan was a little nervous.

“You haven’t seen the news, have you?” Ziyi paused a moment, as if she didn’t know how to say that.

“What news?” A bad premonition arose in Zhan’s heart.

“Enjie, she…” Ziyi did not know how to say this. She said irritably, “I’ll send you the pictures. You see them yourself.”

The phone was hung up, and Zhan received a WeChat message.

He opened it and saw a few pictures that Ziyi had sent him. They were very long pictures. And Zhan could vaguely tell that they were screenshots of some news and Weibo posts.

After Zhan clicked on the picture and zoomed in, he finally saw the contents.

Stealth date between an actress and a young master of an aristocratic family.

The news were all speculations, and there was no valid proof. However, Zhan recognized the woman and the mansion behind her in the next picture…

He had seen Enjie several times and had a deep impression of her. So, he immediately recognized that the woman wearing sunglasses was Enjie.

And the mansion behind Enjie belonged to Yibo!

Zhan suddenly remembered that when Enjie went to look for him at the Xiao Group, she uncharacteristically apologized and bought a big brand as compensation.

At that time, Zhan thought that Enjie had other purposes. But he did not know that Enjie was aimed at Yibo.

He thought that it was done when he rejected Enjie. However, Enjie even went to Yibo’s mansion.

Just as he thought, even Yibo was an “ugly and impotent” cripple in others’ eyes, the fact that he was the young master of the Wangs was attractive enough for a woman to take the initiative to seduce him.

Zhan had a complicated feeling about it.

Yibo had said that he could not come to pick him up because of an emergency. So, this was what he was talking about?

The other screenshots of Weibo posts were analysis of Enjie’s identity and the owner of the mansion.

The long Weibo post seemed very reasonable and well-founded.

If Zhan had not known Yibo’s arrogant temperament, he would also believe that Yibo was a womanizer and never refused anybody even though he was impotent.

When Yibo was in bed, he was indeed like a wolf.

He wouldn’t refuse nobody?

No, Yibo could get any woman he wanted.

Zhan refuted the post one by one in his heart, while Ziyi kept sending him messages.

“I knew that Zanilla and Enjie wouldn’t do any good together. That woman wants too much!”

“If I had known it earlier, I would have screwed her and got her out of the entertainment industry!”

“Zhan? Did you see my text? Anyway, even if Yibo wants to cheat, he wouldn’t find someone like Enjie. At the very least, he would find a super star, who must be young, pretty, and famous.”

Zhan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Was there anyone who comforted others like Ziyi?

Seeing Zhan’s expression changing, Haoxuan asked with concern, “What happened?”

“Nothing.” Zhan looked up at Haoxuan while editing a message and sent it to Ziyi.

He asked, “Have all the news and Weibo posts been taken down?”

The next second, Ziyi replied, “Of course.”

That was good.

“I’m on my way home. I’ll talk to Yibo when I get home.” Zhan replied to Ziyi’s message and put down his phone.

“How is Yijun?” Zhan hadn’t seen Yijun these days, and he missed him.

“I’ve got a cook for him. He just plays games or watches movies at home all day. And he told me a few days ago that he wanted to go back to Yibo’s place.” When Haoxuan said this, he helplessly smiled and said, “I just feel that I’m not a good brother.”

Although Yijun had been complaining to Haoxuan that Yibo was fierce, cold, and didn’t give him pocket money, he wanted to go back to Yibo’s house only after a few days at his place.

Yijun used excuses like that he wanted to eat food Zhan cooked, or that he had forgotten to bring his textbooks.

Anyway, Yijun was more willing to live with Yibo.

Zhan did not want Haoxuan to send him home. He got off his car in the downtown and took a taxi back to the mansion.

***

“Good day, Mrs. Wang!” As soon as Zhan got out of the car, the bodyguard greeted him and came to take his luggage.

As Zhan walked inside, he asked, “Where is Mr. Wang?”

The bodyguard was honest and replied, “Mr. Wang left early in the morning.”

When they were about to enter the hall, Ciao came out and greeted Zhan. “I heard them calling you from inside. Did you come back by the early flight? I guess you didn’t eat in the morning. I cooked porridge this morning and Mr. Wang didn’t eat much. I’ll re-warm a bowl for you.”

“Thank you, Ciao.”

Zhan thanked her and went upstairs to change his clothes.

After he changed his clothes and opened the door, he was caught in a warm and big embrace.

Zhan smelled a familiar aura and hugged the man back.

Yibo lowered his head and kissed him gently on his hair. “How did you get back? Bowen said that he didn’t see you at the airport.”

Zhan did not hide it. “I met Haoxuan there. He gave me a ride and I took a taxi back in the downtown.”

Then he could feel Yibo’s emotions changed, as if he was dissatisfied.

“Haoxuan didn’t do it on purpose at the dinner. I happened to meet him at the airport. He said he could give me a ride, and I couldn’t refuse.”

Zhan patiently explained to Yibo. But he could not deny that he was angry with Yibo at that time.

Yibo had promised that he was going to pick him up. Zhan thought that he could see Yibo after getting off the plane. But in the end, he said that he couldn’t come.

“Alright.” Yibo replied indifferently and lowered his head to kiss Zhan.

Zhan pushed him away, “Ciao is waiting for me to go down and eat. I didn’t have breakfast. And I’m very hungry.”

Hearing this, Yibo was still a little unwilling to let him go. But he didn’t do anything else in the end.

***

In the dining hall

Zhan sat down to eat while Yibo crossed his arms and stared at him.

Yibo looked indifferent as usual, but his eyes were exceptionally focused on Zhan, as if he hadn’t seen him for years.

Zhan felt that Yibo was too clingy. He became awkward to be seen by him.

So, Zhan asked him, “What happened between you and Enjie?”

He believed in Yibo, but he still wanted to figure out what was going on.

“Have you seen the news?” Yibo did not answer his question but asked.

“Yeah.” Zhan had another spoonful of porridge and slightly narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Ciao was really good at cooking.

Yibo observed his expression and only found that Zhan was very satisfied about the porridge. There was no sign of anger at all.

Yibo raised his eyebrows and asked, “Aren’t you angry?”

“It’s not true. Why should I get angry?” Zhan just felt it disgusting.

Yibo’s name was related to another woman, which made Zhan unhappy.

When Zhan thought about it, he poked the porridge in the bowl with his spoon. Now, he was really a little angry.

Yibo stared at him, not missing Zhan’s eyes and actions.

“Do you trust me so much?”

“Why not? If you accept anyone getting close to you, like Enjie, you might as well choose Zanilla.” Zhan was just making an analogy, but Yibo’s expression went dark.

Zhan carefully glanced at him and found that Yibo was very unhappy. What did I say to piss him off?

“Zhan, listen carefully.”

“What?” Was he going to scold me?

“Don’t say anything like asking me to find another woman.”

Zhan was thinking how to retort him if Yibo scolded him. But he only said this.

Zhan felt a little helpless.

This man was sometimes even more stubborn than me.

“I’m just making an analogy.”

“Not even if it’s an analogy.”

“Alright.” Zhan was persuaded and was not that firm.

Then Yibo turned serious and told Zhan the truth.

He slightly frowned and said, “Enjie may be suspecting my identity.”

Zhan had eaten enough. Hearing this, he put down his spoon and looked at him. “Then what should we do?”

Yibo pondered for a moment and said, “Let’s wait.”

“How long do we wait?” Zhan couldn’t keep up with Yibo’s thoughts.

Was that meaning Yibo was going to appearing in the public?

Then, the fact would scotch rumors that the eldest young master of Wangs was disfigured.

And what followed would be that countless women approaching Yibo.

Zhan felt a little weird.

It was as if I had hidden a treasure that only I could see. Only I knew how good this treasure was. However, one day, my treasure appeared in the public and was coveted by more people.

This was not a good feeling.

“Are you full?” Yibo suddenly asked.

Zhan nodded. “Yeah.”

Then he was pulled back to the bedroom by Yibo.

The moment they entered the room, they kissed intensely.

The subtle emotions in Zhan’s heart were washed away by this intimate kiss.

Zhan felt that it was too exaggerated when he heard people say that absence sharpened love.

But after these days, Zhan felt the same way. Zhan’s obedience and cooperation made Yibo even happier.

From morning to evening after many rounds Yibo still didn’t let go Zhan.

When they were about to come again, Yibo coaxed him in his hoarse voice. “Call me.”

“Babe…!”

“One more time”

***

Zhan returned by the morning flight. He only had a bowl of porridge and was brought into the room by Yibo.

When Zhan woke up, it was already night.

The headlights in the room were not turned on. He only saw a faint light at the side.

Zhan turned around and saw Yibo sitting on the sofa not far from the bed. He was reading the documents. The floor lamp next to him had a dim yellow light.

Yibo had taken a shower. His hair hung limply over his forehead. He was wearing a comfortable housecoat. He no longer looked aggressive under the warm yellow light. Instead, he looked very gentle.

Zhan stared at him for a while and couldn’t help but smile. Then he lightly rolled over.

This small movement attracted Yibo’s attention.

Yibo raised his head and looked over. His eyes, which had been dark and indifferent, were filled with genuine gentleness.

Yibo asked in a deep voice, “Are you hungry?”

“Yeah.” Zhan opened his mouth and found that his voice was very hoarse. So, he just nodded.

Yibo put down the documents and walked over. He sat down on the bed, bent down and kissed on his forehead.

When he was about to leave, he found Zhan staring at him with his beautiful almond-like eyes. He liked Zhan’s eyes the most. They were extremely beautiful.

When Zhan looked at him, Yibo always felt that Zhan was seducing him.

He couldn’t help but bend down and kiss Zhan again.

Zhan almost couldn’t breathe. He struggled and pushed him away. “I’m very hungry!”

Yibo also breathed faster. “Do you want to eat downstairs or here?”

“Downstairs!” If I were here, Instead of dinner Yibo will eat me again… beast will always beast…

Seeing through Zhan’s thoughts, Yibo smiled. He sounded joyful and proud.

Zhan felt that Yibo needed a lesson, so he punched him twice on the chest.

***

The next day.

Zhan was woken up by the phone call.

He reached out to look for his phone, but Yibo found it before him and hung it up.

Yibo pulled him back into his arms. “It’s early. Sleep a little longer.”

So, Zhan closed his eyes and was about to go back to sleep when his phone rang again.

Zhan had been woken up once. This time, he was completely awake. Seeing that he had been woken up, Yibo took Zhan’s phone over with a bad expression and wanted to turn it off.

“No, give me the phone.” Zhan took the phone from Yibo and answered it.

Ziyi’s voice came from the other end of the phone. She sounded excited and angry. “You’re still asleep? Get up now. Let’s go to the hotel to catch Yibo!”

“What? Who?” Zhan was confused. Who was she going to catch early in the morning?

Ziyi sounded more anxious. “Your husband, Yibo!”

Zhan glanced at Yibo who was leaning forward to kiss him.
