DBSNTM-68 The Mess (YiZhan fanfic)

Zhouxuan had a grudge against Zhan ever since she lost the fight with Dilraba in Yibo’s mansion last time. And she hated Zhan even more.

She didn’t want to be nice to Zhan, thus she glanced at Zhan with disdain.

Haoxuan had poor relationships with Yibo because of the cancellation of the contract.

Therefore, none of them took the initiative to talk to anyone.

The frozen atmosphere in the hall was annoying.

Zhan was uncomfortable at all.

On the contrary, no abnormality could be seen on Yibo’s face. He even reached out to pick a few large macadamia nuts from the fruit tray on the coffee table. He then handed them to Zhan after he shelled them.

Zhan admired that Yibo could keep calm at that moment.

Finally, he himself calmed down since Yibo could act like that. Anyway, it was just acting. The easier he pretended to be, the more he would win.

“It’s quite tasty. Have a try!” As Zhan spoke, he stuffed a nut into Yibo’s mouth.

Macadamia nuts were creamy and crispy, Yibo did not like such nuts, but he still frowned, chewed, and swallowed it.

“Mom,” Haoxuan sat down beside Cici and said with concern, “why didn’t you call me in advance so that I could pick you up?”

Zhouxuan also sat down next to Haoxuan and replied, “Yes, auntie, you seldom came back, Haoxuan just happened to be in the country, so you should ask him to pick you up.”

Cici smiled faintly, “Haoxuan is too busy. Someone else can pick me up. It doesn’t matter…”

They seemed to enjoy the friendly chatting, while Zhan and Yibo were quiet.

Yibo only shelled the macadamia nuts slowly. Yizhou sat opposite him and did not speak.

Finally, it was time to eat.

Zhan thought that they could go back after dinner.

But halfway through the meal, Zhouxuan pointed at her phone and shouted, “Haoxuan, someone is throwing mud on you online.”

Zhouxuan’s words worried Zhan. He wasn’t worried that Haoxuan was thrown mud. Instead, he was just worried that Yibo would be involved again.

Yibo was the founder of Yuehua Media Company, and the Wang’s should know about it. But they did not interfere in Yibo’s cancellation of the contract with Haoxuan.

Perhaps the elders of the Wang’s didn’t intend to interfere.

But the parties of the contract were both here…

Haoxuan said calmly, “Don’t worry, and let’s talk about it after dinner. Some people online like to talk nonsense now.”

“No, you’ve been hot online again. Many people have paid attention to you. Someone said that you abused and killed a puppy on a set before. The one who leaked the news said that he used to work with you…”

“What a joke! You couldn’t do such a thing! You’re such a nice person….” Zhouxuan said with a natural tone on purpose, but the intentional flattery in her words could not be concealed.

Zhan glanced at her.

Zhouxuan realized that it was too difficult to flatter Yibo, so she took a step back and turned to Haoxuan, didn’t she?

Zhan stretched out a finger and poked Yibo’s waist under the table. He intended to ask him if Haoxuan had done this.

He had a hunch that Yibo wasn’t just going to break the contract with Haoxuan, Yibo was a very vengeful person and would definitely get something back from Haoxuan.

Zhan only poked him once, and Yibo grabbed his entire palm.

Zhan looked up at him. Yibo turned around and picked up some food for him as if nothing had happened, “Eat more. And we’ll go back when you’re full.”

Zhan tilted his head and blinked, expressing his doubts.

Yibo shook his head imperceptibly. That was his answer.

Then, he looked up at Haoxuan.

Their gazes met in the air. Neither of them took the initiative to say a word, nor did they have any superfluous expressions.

However, everyone else could feel a weird atmosphere.

Haoxuan looked away first and smiled indifferently, “Of course. It’s just gossip spread by some boring people, Zhouxuan, put your phone down. Let’s eat.”

After he said that, Zhouxuan hurriedly replied, “OK.”

Zhouxuan put down her phone. But then she asked curiously, “Haoxuan, why did you cancel the contract with Yuehua Media Company? I feel that company treats you well.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere at the dining table was so strange that nobody talked.

Zhan was a little surprised. Zhouxuan didn’t know that Yibo was the boss of Yuehua Media Company.

Then Zhan felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Yibo wasn’t a talkative person, He didn’t like the Wang’s and didn’t have any feelings for Zhouxuan. Normally, she had no idea that Yibo was the boss behind Yuehua Media Company.

Haoxuan stopped smiling soon and looked at Zhouxuan angrily.

Zhouxuan was at a loss, not knowing what was wrong.

Cici, who had been silent all this while, put some food into Zhouxuan’s plate and said softly, “Zhouxuan, try this.”

“Thank you, auntie.” Zhouxuan glanced at Haoxuan secretly. Then she stopped talking and focused on her meal.

After finishing the meal, Zhan thought that they could finally go back.

“Yibo, come to my study. I have something to tell you.”

As soon as Yizhou said those words, Zhan realized that they couldn’t leave for a while.

Zhan sighed and pushed Yibo, “You go, I’ll wait for you here.”

However, without saying a word, Yibo led him into Yizhou’s study by holding his hand.

“Your father has something to tell to you. Why are you taking me there?” Zhan struggled to shake off his hand.

But Yibo said seriously, “We just finished eating, I want to walk with you to digest.”

Zhan muttered in a low voice, “… Do you have any other excuse?”

“I beg your pardon.” Yibo turned to look at him.

But Zhan looked away and shook his head, pretending that he had said nothing.

At the entrance of Yizhou’s study, Yibo pushed open the door and brought Zhan inside.

Seeing that Zhan was still behind Yibo, Yizhou frowned slightly, “Zhan, don’t you want to chat with them downstairs?”

Zhan knew that he was about to warn him that ‘It’s not proper for you to be here, when I am talking to my son’.

“If you have anything to say, just say it.” Yibo looked up at Yizhou and said coldly after he had led Zhan to the sofa and saw him sit down.

Immediately, Yizhou turned angry because of Yibo’s attitude.

Zhan glanced at Yizhou and then at Yibo. He discovered that they looked more similar when they were both got angry.

“I thought you would concede since you were willing to take over the Wang Group.” Yizhou said coldly, demonstrating his stateliness.

Zhan could not help but sit upright.

But Yibo forced a smile, “It seems that I need to correct you, I went back to take over the mess, well, the Wang Group, just because of my grandfather.”

Yizhou was so angry that his chest heaved violently. He stared at Yibo for long before saying, “Fine!”

Watching aside, Zhan was somewhat terrified.

Fortunately, Yizhou was in good health. Otherwise, he would get sick by Yibo sooner or later.

“Humph!”

Yibo sneered, “You know how the Wang Group is. Those share-holders control more than half of the Group’s equity and they have made many false accounts, do you know that?”

Yibo wouldn’t have worked overtime frequently then if the Wang Group weren’t in such a terrible condition.

Yizhou knew that what Yibo said was the truth and had nothing to refute. He let out a long sigh of relief and asked, “Stop talking about this, Let’s talk about Haoxuan.”

Yibo raised his eyebrows and slightly narrowed his eyes as he waited for what Yizhou would say.

“You started up a television company. And Haoxuan had been a contracted actor under your company for the past few years, right? But you canceled the contract with him, didn’t you?”

People said it was the Haoxuan who proposed to cancel the contract. But Yizhou was not that easy to fool like them.

Yizhou questioned Yibo in a strange tone.

Yibo replied expressionlessly, “Are you here to stand up for him?”

Yizhou seemed to have noticed that he said in a wrong tone. Then he softened his tone, “Your aunt and I are siblings, and you have been in a good relationship with Haoxuan since childhood. You know that many people envy your status in the Wang Family. It will be good for you if you establish a good relationship with him, You can look out for each other…”

“You yourself can do that if you like.” Yibo felt that it was boring. So, he stood up and said, “I won’t meddle in your affair, and you don’t meddle in mine.”

Then he turned around and extended his hand to Zhan, “Zhan, let’s go home.”

Facing Zhan, Yibo was not as cold as when he said to Yizhou, His handsome eyes were full of gentleness, and Yibo was warm and touching.

Zhan put his hand into his, “Okay.”

They walked out together.

Inside the open door, it sounded that something was smashed, Zhan looked at Yibo worriedly.

Yibo comforted him with a smile. But then he smiled with mockery, “Let him smash his own things.”

Zhan was slightly worried. Yibo and Yizhou were incompatible for a long time. But they couldn’t live like this for the rest of their lives.

He could tell that Yizhou was intentionally trying to ease the tensions between them.

No matter how excessive Yizhou was, he would not kidnap his wife to cope with her.

Zhan felt that there were misunderstandings between Yibo and Yizhou.

However, such misunderstandings were not caused in a short time. So, he had to take it slowly to help them solve them.

When Zhan and Yibo went downstairs, they saw Yijun jump up from the sofa and look at them with eagerness, “Hi, Zhan. Hi, Yibo. Are you going back?”

“Yeah, what’s wrong?” Zhan could tell that Yijun had something to say.

Yijun scratched his head and said awkwardly, “I haven’t been to your home for a long time. Can I stay with you for a few days?”

“No.”

“OK”

Their answers sounded at the same time.

Yibo said “no”, and Zhan said “OK”.

Zhan glared at Yibo and said in an accentuated tone, “No?”

Yibo wanted to nod.

However, his intuition told him that if he nodded, he might be kicked out of the bedroom by Zhan that night.

Yibo glanced at Yijun and replied indifferently, “Well.”

Zhan could feel the strong reluctance in Yibo’s “Well”.

But he pretended not to feel it and said to Yijun with a smile, “Did you tell your mother about that?”

Although Haoxuan had broken down with Yibo, Yijun had done nothing with that and he was only a child.

Zhan couldn’t be indifferent to a child because of adults’ affairs.

Yijun nodded frantically, “Yes,”

Yijun used to live at Yibo’s home. His clothes were also there. So, he didn’t even need to pack his things and could go over and live there again.

***

When he got in the car, Yijun seemed to be afraid that Yibo would go back on his word.

Immediately, he rushed into the car and waved to Zhan, “Zhan, get on quickly.”

Yibo cast a cold glance over and Yijun quickly shut up.

Zhan was about to board the car when Yibo pulled him back. After he got on the car, Yibo reached out to Zhan and signaled him to get on.

Zhan rolled his eyes towards him, Was Yibo that stingy?

Therefore, Yibo sat between Zhan and Yijun and separated them.

Zhan and Yijun looked at each other across Yibo with eyes full of contempt to Yibo.

Zhan recalled that Zhouxuan said that Haoxuan was thrown mud again when they were eating, so he took out his phone to surf the Internet.

It, on the Internet, was worse than Zhan had imagined.

He whispered into Yibo’s ear, “That’s not what you do?”

Yibo was still expressionless, but his tone was quite arrogant, “Do I need to?”

A person’s character could often be seen according to the small things that he did.

That Haoxuan abused a puppy to death was a hot topic, and there were pictures of that.

Though the pictures were not very clear, the outline of that figure clearly showed that it was Haoxuan.

The pictures were taken consecutively. From Haoxuan picked up the puppy to threw it to the ground, Five pictures were taken continuously.

In the words of netizens, they were proof.

This time, most of the netizens no longer support Haoxuan.

For a big shot like Haoxuan, who had barely suffered from any negative news, such a scandal was a devastating blow to his acting career.

“The image he had set up was ruined.”

“I’ve already felt that this Haoxuan was strange. How could he don’t suffer from any negative news?”

“This is the result of breaking the contract with the Yuehua Media Company. Yuehua was big enough to protect Haoxuan. Therefore, once he canceled the contract, he dug up dirt on. Isn’t that funny?”

Zhan’s gaze fixed on the last comment.

The entertainment was indeed complicated. Haoxuan kept being a big shot because he was protected by Yuehua, a leader of the entertainment.

Since Haoxuan had broken the contract, he lost the umbrella, Thus, those social climbers would naturally take this opportunity to step on him.

Once one failed, he would fall forever.

There were always social climbers in entertainment.

However, only very few of them could rise high by stepping on others.

In just a decade, Haoxuan had become the youngest “Grand Slam winner” in the entertainment. So, someone had long wanted to trample him down.
