When Zhan came out of the room, there was only Haoxuan in the hall.
Hearing the door open, Haoxuan turned around and greeted him as usual, “Zhan.”
“We don’t think we are on first-name terms, Mr. Wen, please call me Mr Xiao.” Zhan’s expression and tone were cold.
He could not be as calm as Haoxuan and pretend everything was fine.
“I’m sorry for what happened.” Haoxuans stopped smiling and put on a serious expression.
“I don’t accept your apology.”
His apology wasn’t sincere, He didn’t even feel he had done anything wrong.
Haoxuan did not seem to care whether Zhan accepted his apology, He nodded and said, “Alright.”
“Although I don’t know what happened between you and Yibo, I know you are very important to Yibo, He knew it was you from your first attack. He just wanted to give you a chance.”
When Zhan calmed down, he could figure out what he failed to understand.
Zhan tilted his head slightly and said seriously, “I envy you.”
He really did.
Yibo treated Haoxuan so well.
It made Zhan envious.
Zhan’s words seemed to infuriate Haoxuans, His mood changed drastically. He said, “Envy me?”
Before Zhan could say anything, a tall and hunky figure rushed in from outside.
The person was in front of him before he realized. “Yibo?”
Zhan stared at the man in front of him and asked in surprise, “Why are you here?”
When Yibo rushed in just now, Zhan mistook him for a bodyguard.
Yibo hadn’t slept all night and looked a bit haggard. But he had an imposing manner.
He did not answer Zhan’s question. Instead, he sized him up and down, breathing a sigh of relief before turning to Haoxuan.
Haoxuan said with a smile, “You are so quick.”
It sounded like Haoxuan had informed Yibo of the place.
Zhan could tell that Yibo froze.
Zhan paused for a moment, then took a step forward and reached out to hold Yibo’s hand.
It was as if Yibo had eyes in the back of his head. He held Zhan’s hand tightly before Zhan held his.
His palms were dry and warm.
Zhan felt very safe and secure when Yibo held his hand.
Zhan looked down with mixed feelings.
Seeing this, Haoxuan sneered and said. “What a happy couple! I’m really jealous of you. But it’s hard to say whether others think the same.”
Yibo’s face darkened. “Haoxuan, do you really think I can’t do anything to you?”
“Of course, you can. But the prerequisite is that you have to announce Zhan is your wife. Otherwise, he will remain to be a mistress.” Then Haoxuan turned to look at Zhan and said, “In the future, Zhan will be a screenwriter. If he is labeled as your mistress, will his career be impeded?”
His words struck into Yibo’s heart like a sharp sword.
Yibo had asked Zhan to resign and do something he liked. That was why he had tried his best to get him into the Wang Group.
But it was also because of him that Zhan didn’t dare to go out.
The veins on Yibo’s forehead burst out. He bellowed, “Shut up!”
Haoxuan’ smile widened.
“Haoxuan!”
It was Zanilla.
Zhan turned around and saw her running towards Haoxuan and rushing into his embrace jubilantly.
Haoxuan hugged Zanilla in his arms and asked softly, “Anything alright?”
“Everything is fine,” Zanilla answered with a cheerful expression, being surprised and shy like a teenage girl. She said, “You are here to see me. I’m not dreaming, am I?”
“No.” Haoxuan stroked her cheek, looking much gentler.
Seeing this, Zhan was in shock and turned to look at Yibo subconsciously.
Yibo wasn’t surprised at all.
Haoxuan noticed Zhan’s gaze, looked up, and smiled at him. He then said to Yibo, “Although Zhan looks like Jiyang, Zanilla is more similar to Jiyang, Jiyang liked you so much. He would be very happy to know you married a man who looks so much like him.”
Zhan would be a downright fool if he didn’t know Haoxuan was alienating them.
Zhan said bluntly, “Not everyone is like you. You can only find a substitute when a man doesn’t love you back. You are not devoted to Jiyang as you thought. He would be disgusted if he knew you are holding another woman’s hand.”
Haoxuan’ expression suddenly changed. He said angrily, “Zhan!”
“Don’t call me Zhan. It’s gross.” Zhan felt disgusted when he looked at Haoxuan.
Indeed, there was often a rotten interior beneath a fine exterior.
Yibo didn’t say anything. He and Zhan went out.
Zhan was still upset when they went back to the car. He wanted to shake off Yibo’s hand.
However, Yibo was very clingy and refused to let go.
Zhan took a deep breath and said irritably, “Let go.”
Yibo said coolly, “I won’t.”
Zhan bent down and took a bite on his hand.
However, Yibo had great willpower. He could even endure an operation to remove bullets without taking anesthesia, let alone a bite.
Zhan was tired after a while. Since Yibo refused to let go, he could only give up.
Yibo pulled him into his embrace and said, “Do you feel better now?”
Zhan didn’t expect that. He said, “No.”
“If so, bite me again,” Yibo said coolly, as he put his hand near Zhan’s lips.
Zhan turned around and said, “It’s too hard to bite.”
Yibo said, “You’ve bitten a much harder thing, haven’t you?”
Zhan was embarrassed.
Yibo was surprised himself. He was used to teasing Zhan.
These words just came out naturally.
Zhan blushed. Glancing at Bowen who was driving, he hit Yibo.
Yibo was patient and didn’t fight back, allowing him to do what he liked.
Since Zhan was angry with Yibo, he didn’t show any mercy. Instead, he punched him hard.
However, Yibo remained calm and obedient. He didn’t resist at all.
Zhan couldn’t take his anger out on him.
Zhan finally stopped and turned around. He refused to talk to Yibo and didn’t hit him, either…
Staying calm and collected, Yibo looked down and glanced at him.
This was the first time he had sized Zhan up so seriously since the incident happened yesterday.
Zhan was much more resilient and he had recovered much faster than Yibo had expected, Yibo was very frustrated.
Zhan was too strong and independent, which meant he would be less reliant on Yibo.
Perhaps, he had been wrong from the beginning.
He grew up with Haoxuan, and they were very close.
When Haoxuan became trending on social media for the second time, Yibo did know Haoxuan was involved.
He wanted to believe Haoxuan, but he was fully aware that Haoxuan did it on purpose. It was never a thoughtless act.
It was just the beginning.
What happened afterwards was indeed within his expectations.
He didn’t lay bare his plot. Nor did he face Haoxuan off. It was because he wanted to know how far Haoxuan could go.
He had a hunch that Haoxuan might threaten him with Zhan. But he had never expected that Haoxuan would be so cruel and ruthless.
He thought he would have been able to settle it properly even if that was the case.
But he made a huge mistake.
He could handle everything, except Zhan.
No matter what he did, it was not good enough.
Zhan noticed Yibo was staring at him.
Zhan turned to look at him, his lips pursed. He said, “You…”
Yibo suddenly held Zhan’s hand. Although he maintained a poker face, his chin was rigid, revealing his emotions.
He seemed to be nervous. But upon closer inspection, he seemed to be as collected as usual.
“Mr. and Mrs. Wang. We’re back.”
Bowen’s voice came from the front seat.
Zhan regained his senses and pulled his hand out of Yibo’s grip.
“We’re back.” Zhan glanced at him before getting off the car and heading towards the mansion.
Bowen noticed that Yibo’s relationship with Zhan got worse when the incident was made public.
Bowen got out of the car and found Yibo was still sitting in it. He said, “Mr. Wang.”
Yibo put up his hand and signaled him to be silent.
Bowen had no choice but to turn around and leave.
***
Zhan had been away for a single night. When he stepped into the mansion again, he found the place unfamiliar.
He went back to his room, changed his clothes, and took out his phone to surf the Internet.
The incident was influential.
Adding the fact that Yibo and Haoxuan were both involved, it went viral. Taking down all the news. and posts would definitely backfire.
However, a trending topic left Zhan dumbfounded.
#Cheng Comes Out#
Cheng came out?
Zhan was shocked. It took him a while before he went downstairs with his phone to find Yibo.
But a bodyguard told Zhan… Yibo was in the study.
When he pushed the door open and went in, there was a thick smell of cigarette in the study.
The scent was choking.
Zhan coughed violently.
Hearing the noise, Yibo, who was smoking with his back to him, turned around and put out the cigarette.
This was the first time he had seen Yibo smoke.
Yibo said in a deep voice, “What’s wrong?”
“Did Cheng come out of the closet?”
The moment he said it, Zhan remembered that Yibo probably didn’t know what “coming out of closet” meant. So he explained, “It means…”
Yibo interrupted him and said coolly, “I know. I paid for the trending topic.”
“You paid for it?”
“Yes.”
Zhan didn’t expect that.
Yibo turned around and walked to his table, while explaining to Zhan, “It diverts people’s attention. There will be a clarification a few days later.”
He spoke in a flat monotone.
Zhan was silent for a while before saying, “Doesn’t Cheng have any objections?”
Yibo was silent. After pondering for a minute, he said, “He has no choice.”
Although Zhan knew Yibo had done it to cover up for him, he still sympathized with Cheng.
Cheng was so unfortunate that he was a friend of Yibo, a level-headed but sometimes ruthless man.
Zhan’s phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and looked at who was calling. He said while twitching the corners of his mouth, “It’s Cheng.”
“I see,” Yibo replied while reaching out to grab Zhan’s phone. He hung it up.
No hesitation. No guilt in the slightest.
Zhan was frustrated.
Taking a deep breath, Zhan said, “Yibo, you can sacrifice anyone, be it your friend or family, as long as the person is useful to you, Is that so?”
When he finished speaking, the temperature of the study dropped to a freezing point.
Yibo’s face darkened.
A suffocating depression permeated the room.
After a long time, Yibo said coldly, “Do you think I’m such a jerk?”
“Yeah.” Zhan’s lips curled into a sneer.
Zhan wasn’t upset, but he just couldn’t get over it.
Yibo pursed his lips tightly with a dangerous look.
Zhan thought Yibo would get angry, or leave indignantly.
But Yibo just said with his head down, “It will not happen again.”
His voice was deep and soothing as usual, but he sounded determined.
It would not happen again?
Was he not going to take advantage of me? Or was he not going to make me a trending topic?
Yibo could tell that Zhan was suspicious.
Being disappointed and angry, Yibo walked to him, pulled him into his arms, and kissed him.
He didn’t sleep for a night. It wasn’t because he was too busy, but because he couldn’t sleep without Zhan.
He had underestimated how important Zhan was to him.
