Chapter 2
Xiao Zhan went home after his weird night, regardless he has no right to get mad at Yibo especially when he discovered that he is Tracer85 and younger than he thought. He just brushed of the thoughts that Talu won the bet and he’s loyal to him as well so he will just think of it as Talu’s prize.
‘Hey! I don’t know where you are but I’m home already,” Xiao Zhan sent a message to Talu.
“Good, now sleep,” Talu replied to his message.
“He really sounds like a mom sometimes are we sure that we are the same age?” Xiao Zhan mumbles to himself. It may not look like it, but Talu is always busy as his secretary and assistant that’s why he disappeared from time to time, and he was able to manage to sneak out to open his clinic.
A week later, due to busy work as a mafia leader he couldn’t open his clinic, as a leader he have some paper works as well especially when something is needed for his approval, they have their own business in Chonqing as well from different industries, but these are all legal companies. Xiao Zhan wanted to change the image of the mafia so he can freely move as well.
However, since its long history of course there were some illegal businesses as well and under the table transaction. As possible he tried his best to avoid those transaction and solve it in a legal way. Thankfully he has a reliable assistant which is Talu his best friend as well. Talu has his own apartment but since he’s always supporting the leader, Xiao Zhan already gave him a room or office in his house. Even though he is the boss of their group, Xiao Zhan loves to cook, clean, knit, and even design his own house, that’s why Talu always get a free meal from Xiao Zhan.
After finishing his job as a mafia leader, he decided to visit the clinic, fortunately Talu is still busy doing his field job so he can stay longer on his clinic. Upon arriving, he noticed a man with helmet leaning on his big bike in front of his clinic, like he was waiting for someone. Somehow, the figure is familiar with him, so he decided to approach the man.
“Uhm, how can I help you?”
“Ge, you’re late,” Yibo said as he removed his helmet.
“Yibo? Why are you here?” Xiao Zhan asked.
“I told you one week ago that I will comeback for the payment, but you didn’t open your clinic,” Yibo said.
“Oh, really I’m sorry I forgot, wait don’t tell me you came here every day?” Xiao Zhan asked as he opens the door.
“Of course, how do you think I would know that you didn’t open your clinic.”
“Ah yeah, sorry, I just uhm had a family matter that I need to finish,” Xiao Zhan explained and invited the young man to enter the clinic.
“How’s your wound and ankle by the way?” Xiao Zhan asked.
“It’s alright, mostly healed. I’ll stay here for a while,” Yibo said.
“What? Why? Are you feeling sick?”
“No, I just want to hang out with you,” Yibo said.
“Huh, why would you do that?”
“Because I wanted to observe you.”
“You’re being creepy you know,” Xiao Zhan said.
“Pft, hahaha you’re so straight forward gege,” Yibo said while laughing at Xiao Zhan.
“Go hang out with your friends kiddo, I’m here for work,” Xiao Zhan said as he dismissed Yibo.
Yibo hates being called a kid, he may be childish sometimes, but he hates it when someone calling him a kid, and it doesn’t feel right especially when it comes from the older doctor. So, he walks toward the doctor, turn his chair around to face him and cage the doctor on it while saying, “I’m not a kid though, Xiao Zhan.”
“Hey, what are you — wait what did you call me?” Xiao Zhan flabbergasted with what he heard from the young racer.
“Aiyo, are you getting old Dr. Gu Wei, I said Xiao Zhan,” Yibo said as he smirks while still caging the older man on his sit. Xiao Zhan may be a good actor when he’s facing his subordinates but this time, he cannot hide his shaken face to the young man in front of him.
“How din you know that name?” Xiao Zhan tried to calm down and glared at Yibo.
“Well, I have my ways, I know who you are so there’s no use of hiding it from me, I really like your real name though than Dr. Gu Wei, so I’ll just call you Zhan-ge,” Yibo said as he gives his signature smug face to the stunned man in front of him.
“What do you want,” Xiao Zhan asked but there’s a hint of threatening voice.
“I’ll get straight to the point, marry me Zhan-ge.”
“What?!”
“I just proposed to you, I said marry me.”
“Eh, no, why would I do that!” Xiao Zhan said angrily as he stood up and forcibly push Yibo.
Talu has been occupied by the work that was given by one of the officials of the Xiao Group, Liu Jian Min. He is the father of Xiao Zhan’s friends Xuan Lu and Zhoucheng. He was also a friend of the previous leader of the Xiao Group leader which if Xiao Zhan’s father. After Xiao Zhan and Talu’s parents died in an accident, Jian Min treated them as his own child as well. He was promoted as a high rank official and give the position of assistant to Talu.
“Have you finished the investigation?” Jian Min asked.
“I’m sorry but I only made a little progress. Besides, according from our insider, the young boss of Wang has been out of town of the last week and even the highest rank officials didn’t know where he went. Only his assistant knew where he is, but he is tight lip, but I already know his name and face” Talu said as he gave the picture of the young boss of Wang.
“I see, it’s been five years since the former leader passed away, of course your parents as well, but still, I didn’t know why they wanted me to talk to the Wang Group after five years since then, the former leader told me that the day will come that I will learn the truth but unfortunately, he passed away. We need to investigate first where is the former leader of the Wang Group and further investigation to their young boss, there were rumors that he’s more ruthless than our leader, of course he is. That boy Xiao Zhan, he really doesn’t fit to be a mafia, much more a leader,” Jian Min said as he pinches the bridge of his noise due to stress.
“Uncle, please don’t say that Xiao Zhan is a capable leader, and our people is afraid of him so there is nothing to—”
“Talu, I was once an assistant of the leader of course I know what that child has been doing as well, with your and my children help right, I didn’t intervene because I thought someday he will realize that it was not the right path for him, good thing that he has been acting so proudly that’s why you guys were able to trick the others. No matter what kind of façade you guys do, that child is a soft hearted one, you know it,” Jian Min said as he cut off Talu.
“You knew all along?”
“Of course, I know I confirmed it myself Talu, I may be old, but I did the same job as you did, I also knew that you were discreetly following him in the clinic that’s why I didn’t say anything until now. But you need to double the security around Xiao Zhan, do not let anybody approach him, investigate all his patient from now on and continue investigating about the young boss of Wang, we need precautions as well.”
“Understood uncle, well then,” Talu said as he leaves Jian Min’s office. Everyone knew how the former leader trust his assistant so when he gave him the task, he was puzzled why the former leader didn’t disclose why the Xiao Group needs to approach the Wang Group after five years. Talu knew that it was originally their family but he’s also clueless why are his parents loyal to the Xiao Group, that’s why he decided to investigate this as well and these reasons might be connected to each other.
“So Zhan-ge, what’s your decision? It’s not like you have other choice,” Yibo said as he lies down on the clinic’s bed while Xiao Zhan securely closed the door of clinic for confidentiality.
“That’s out of the question, you didn’t even introduce yourself and where did you learn that name.”
“I believe I already said my name one week ago, I told you my name is Yibo,”
“Don’t act innocent, you know what I am talking about.”
“Hm, well, to be honest I was disappointed that you are nothing like the rumors said.”
“Rumor?” Xiao Zhan asked while he silently reach for his gun on the drawer.
“That the leader of infamous mafia in Chonqing, Xiao Group’s boss is a cold, ruthless and formidable that even his subordinates are scared of him like a tiger who hunts his prey, but when I saw you, you are more like a bunny hiding in this tiny whole.”
“What are you sayi—”
“It’s useless Zhan-ge I know everything about you, so, you can put down the gun behind you, I won’t do anything, besides we need each other more than you think.”
“What do you mean?”
“You know how powerful our families are, but still, if the small pests decided to attack a big target, they are bothersome since they tend to gather and there’s a lot of them. I don’t want them to ruin my peaceful times outside ‘work’, so I need you to cooperate,” Yibo explained.
“What? I’m really confused, help with what? Small pest? Attack big target? What are you saying? And who are you!” Yibo pulled Xiao Zhan and pinned him into the clinic’s bed, Xiao Zhan struggled to break away from the younger man on top of his, but unfortunately, he was manhandled by him.
“Zhan-ge, for a doctor, you are quite slow, how did you survive in a mafia up until now?” Yibo said smugly and added, “But I didn’t expect that the leader is quiet a beauty, more over you are a liscensed doctor and oopps, stop struggling, you may be knowledgeable with self defense, but you cannot win against me who’s more experienced in fighting, so- “but before Yibo could continue his sentence, he noticed a gun that was pointing behind his head.
“Get away from him, Wang Yibo” Talu said while threatening Yibo.
“Wang? Wang Yi-bo?” Xiao Zhan was alarmed by the name that he heard, although he didn’t know what the real name of the young boss of the infamous mafia in Beijing is, he is familiar with Wang. He also knew that Talu’s family originally came from that group, so why is Yibo approaching him, his enemy?
“Hey Mr. assistant, you ruin my chance to introduce myself to Zhan-ge,” Yibo said without breaking an eye contact to Xiao Zhan and without changing their position.
“Zhan-ge?” Talu asked as he looks to Xiao Zhan, but Yibo just ignored him.
“I told you Zhan-ge, we need each other, I am Wang Yibo, the current leader of the Wang Group and,” Yibo said as he abruptly changed their position and put Xiao Zhan on his lap without minding Talu behind and added, “your fiancé,” as he swiftly puts the engagement ring on Xiao Zhan’s finger.
