DBSNTM-66 It's More Important To Eat With You

The car stopped at the entrance of the Xiao’s mansion.

The bodyguard opened the door for Zhan. Just as he stepped down, a sports car came from nowhere and brushed past the corner of the bodyguard’s clothes.

This happened too quickly. The bodyguard was stunned for a few seconds before he collected himself and asked Zhan, “Mrs. Wang, are you alright?”

Zhan hasn’t gotten out of the car yet. How could he not be alright?

Zhan nodded his head, “What about you?”

“I’m fine.” The bodyguard nodded his head.

Zhan got off the car and looked in the direction of the sports car, only to find it was gone.

Zhan retracted his gaze and heard the noise of the sports car again.

The sports car drove back, made a 90-degree angle drift brake, and stopped at the center of the road.

Only then did the young driver take off his sunglasses and swing his hair confidently. He said in the direction of Zhan and the bodyguard, “Hey, are you alright?”

His words sounded insincere.

The man was driving a Ferrari, His hair was carefully tended and was made in a fashionable style with hair gel. He wore famous brands from head to feet and looked like a decent man…

Zhan knew this person.

“Hey, boy, what’s your name? You look familiar.”

As the young man spoke, he held the window edge of the convertible, leaped out of the car, and walked straight toward Zhan.

When he saw Zhan’s face, the young man whistled. “You look superb.”

The bodyguard stood in front of Zhan, ready to fight at any time.

Zhan frowned slightly. “Feng, I’m Zhan.”

The man in front of Zhan was his half-brother, Xiao Feng, who had been studying abroad.

“What?” Feng was shocked. “Who did you say you were? Zhan? Though I haven’t returned home for years, I know that he doesn’t look like you…”

Feng had stayed abroad for seven or eight years, so it was normal for him not to recognize Zhan.

Jianmin, who had heard the noise of the sports car, walked out of the villa. “Feng, did you go racing again?”

When Feng saw Jianmin, he said to him like he was telling a joke, “Dad, this beauty said he was Zhan!”

After Feng finished speaking, he looked at Zhan. Then he muttered to Jianmin, “I can’t believe that Zhan will be so beautiful even he grows up. Is that funny?” Feng couldn’t help but laugh.

Jianmin’s face turned gloomy as he glanced at Feng. Then, he turned to look at Zhan, “Why are you here?”

“You tell me that my mother has been missing for several days, don’t you? I want to know what happened.” Although Zhan was disappointed in Jingtong to the extreme, he still could not ignore her.

“Yes, she’s missing.” Because of what happened to Zanilla, Jianmin was very angry with Zhan.

Zhan had expected that Jianmin would act in this way, so he got to the point, “I have called the police, and they will notify you then.”

He turned to glance at Feng, then Zhan turned around and walked towards the car.

Finally, Feng believed that the beautiful boy in front was Zhan after he heard their conversation.

Hearing Zhan’s words, Jianmin snorted coldly. He turned around and saw that Feng was still looking at Zhan. He scolded, “Stop looking at him! Why aren’t you going in yet? You dare to drag racing with a gang of disreputable people. You…”

Feng stopped listening to Jianmin’s nagging. He ran towards Zhan, “Zhan, don’t rush off. Let’s have a meal together.”

Jianmin got angry as he roared, “Feng, come back!”

Feng ignored his angry father. He only waved his hand to Jianmin and said, “It’s been so many years since we’ve seen each other. I want to have dinner with Zhan. You go back first. Don’t get angry since you’re getting old, OK?”

Zhan had boarded the car. He heard what Feng said.

In the entire Xiaos, Feng was the only one who treated Zhan well.

Feng would inherit the Xiao Group.

Naturally, his family loved him more, and even the servants respected him more.

Feng had been naughty since he was a child and liked to play and having fun.

When he was in high school, he started to convene a bunch of disreputable people to go racing, clubbing, drinking, and hanging out all day long.

He loved to fool around, but he was not bad.

At least, he would help Zhan drive away those who were bullying him when Feng saw that on the way home from school. This was enough for Zhan to be grateful to him for long.

However, he was four years older than Zhan. And Feng had been gotten out of the country when Zhan was in junior high school.

Jianmin was about to be furious, but there was nothing he could do to Feng.

He wondered why his son only wanted to fool around and from where he got such a bad habit.

In a word, there was nothing he could do to him.

Zhan saw that Jianmin was so angry that he entered the villa. Then Feng’s smiling voice sounded in his ears, “How about we eat together, my treat.”

“My treat.” Zhan turned around and smiled at Feng.

Feng was distracted by his smile and only reacted for a while, “Alright, you go ahead. I’ll drive behind you.”

Zhan thought of the speed at which Feng had just driven. Immediately, he got worried and said, “You go ahead. We can drive to the Golden Cauldron Club for dinner.”

***

In the Golden Cauldron Club.

Zhan and Feng sat in the private room face to face.

A waiter was standing aside. Feng flipped through the menu and ordered, “All those dishes…”

Zhan couldn’t help but laugh. Feng had stayed abroad for so many years, but he hadn’t changed much, He loved to party and have fun. Still, he was wasteful.

When the dishes were all served, the dining table was almost not big enough for them.

“I heard that you married Wang Yibo, replacing Zanilla? How is it? Do you get along with Yibo well?” Feng asked relaxedly as if he was chatting with an old friend who had been separated for many years.

Zhan sighed with emotion, but he didn’t tell Feng anything.

“You came back because of Zanilla?” Zhan asked in an affirmative tone. But Feng paused.

He put down his tableware and smiled at Zhan, “You were smarter than Zanilla even when you were young. But when you grew up, you were luckier than her.”

Though Feng had helped Zhan, he was Zanilla’s biological brother.

Zhan knew this very well.

“I’m not any luckier than her, but I don’t have many evil ideas as her.” The smile on Zhan’s face faded bit by bit, “do you know how many times she tried to kill me? I have done my best to the Xiaos. She and Dad have used me time again and again. But I merely decided not to tolerate it anymore.”

Feng took a deep breath and asked, “What about your Mom? You don’t care about her anymore?”

Zhan did not reply.

Feng smiled, “I did come back for Zanilla this time. No matter how many mistakes she made, she is still my sister. I cannot stand by when something bad happens to her.”

“Are you blaming me?” Zhan asked.

They looked at each other and remained silent for a while.

Zhan smiled to himself. “In your eyes, I should still treat Zanilla as before, behaving as nothing was happened? Even if I and my child were almost killed, right?”

“That’s not what I meant. I just…” Feng paused for a moment as if he didn’t know what to say. But in the end, he could only remain silent.

“Well, I’m a little tired. I have to go. Feng, take your time with that.”

Feng looked up at him with hesitation.

After Zhan left the Golden Cauldron Club after he had paid the bill.

***

In the car, the driver asked, “Mrs. Wang, do you want to go home right now?”

Zhan thought for moment and replied, “No, let’s go to the Wang Group.”

It was lunchtime. If he went to the Wang Group, he could have lunch with Yibo.

Very quickly, they arrived at the Wang Group.

Zhan did not get out of the car. He looked at the gate through the window. Then he looked down and took out his phone to call Yibo.

Suddenly, he looked up and saw Yibo walk out of the Wang Group.

Beside him was Wang Yizhou, followed by a group of men and women dressed in suits and shoes, all in a hurry.

Zhan hesitated for a moment before he dialed Yibo.

Then Yibo had arrived at the parking lot. He was just about to open the door of the car and get in when his phone rang. He stopped and took out his phone.

Just as Yibo took the phone, he answered immediately, “Zhan?”

Zhan asked him, “It’s me, are you busy?”

Yibo replied in brief, “Yes.”

“OK, I see.”

“I gotta go.”

After hanging up, Zhan saw Yibo get into the car.

Seeing Yibo drive away, Zhan ordered the driver, “Let’s go home.”

The driver started the car and was just about to drive away when a car arrived. The road here was narrow, so the driver could only slow down and wait for that car to pass.

As a result, that car stopped beside.

Then Yibo walked out of the car, he was tall and slender.

“…” Zhan was dumbfounded.

He muttered, “Yibo?”

The driver reacted quickly. He got out of the car and opened the back door for Yibo. Then Yibo sat down in the car.

Seeing Zhan’s surprised expression, Yibo couldn’t help but reach out and touch Zhan’s head. With a smile, he said, “I saw you earlier.”

Zhan was shocked, “How did you see me?”

“I saw the car.” Yibo stretched out his hand and held Zhan into his arms lightly.

Then he lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead. He held Zhan’s hand in his, “You can come to me directly. Otherwise, you may go back and get angry with me if I don’t see you.”

Hearing this, Zhan pulled his hand back, “I’m so stingy? When did I get angry with you for such a trifle?”

“Well, no.” Yibo nodded seriously.

Zhan clenched his fists and hit him.

He didn’t have much strength, so it didn’t hurt him.

Yibo grabbed his hand and said, “Let’s go to lunch.”

He was sure that Zhan had not eaten yet when he came for him at that time.

“I saw you get in the car with your father before. What are you going to do? Is it OK if you stay with me?” Zhan did not want to interfere with his business.

“It’s more important to eat with you.” As Yibo spoke, he stretched his hand towards Zhan’s belly and said, “You can’t be hungry, since you’re carrying a baby.”

Zhan glared at him. But Yibo wore a bigger smile on his face.

***

They had lunch in a restaurant.

Yibo ordered all the dishes that Zhan liked.

Zhan’s taste hadn’t changed much lately, so Yibo ordered according to his previous preferences.

Zhan was a little hungry, so he started eating soon after the dishes were served.

However, Yibo did not eat much.

Zhan stuffed a potato chip into his mouth and asked, “Why don’t you eat?”

“I’ve eaten,” Yibo said as he put a piece of chicken into Zhan’s plate.

Zhan’s appetite had indeed grown recently. The dishes Yibo ordered were Zhan’s likes, and in the end, Zhan had eaten more than half of them.

Zhan thought that Haoxuan had terminated his contract with Yuehua Media Company.

Then he couldn’t help but ask, “I saw the hot topic on Weibo. Did you propose to cancel the contract?”

He didn’t mention Haoxuan, But Yibo naturally knew who Zhan meant.

“Yes.”

Upon mentioning Haoxuan, the joy and relaxation on Yibo’s face faded away. And then he turned gloomy slightly.

Haoxuan went to the court. So, it meant that he had prepared to get Zanilla out.

Since Haoxuan had cared nothing and had to stand against him, there was no need for Yibo to show any mercy.

But this was just the beginning.

Zhan fell silent when he received Yibo’s affirmative answer.

Yibo took the initiative to cancel the contract with Haoxuan. This was a signal that they had officially broken off.

Zhan recalled the emotional Weibo post Yibo wrote.

He frowned slightly and whispered to Yibo, “Didn’t you talk to Hao… him again? Perhaps he has some unspeakable bitterness?”

He had just gotten used to saying “Haoxuan”.

Yibo pondered for a while before he stared at Zhan affectionately, “Zhan, you should know better than me that bitterness is not a reason for a person to put down his self-esteem and reduce himself into the mud.”

Haoxuan lost his demeanor completely after he had done all of this and mixed up with Zanilla.

Yibo didn’t seem to be very sad. Instead, he felt extremely sorry for Haoxuan.

Zhan couldn’t explain this feeling. After all, Yibo was a very difficult person to understand, and neither was Haoxuan.

In this world, probably everyone had his own bitterness, but the bitterness was not a reason for a person to do evil.
