Dylan Wang's POV

"Dylan, pack your things. We're moving out this instant" My dad barged into my room, I got startled

"What? Why?"

"We just have to, I will explain everything once we reach Hangzhou" He replied before closing the door

I groan in annoyance, I knew this would happen.

I heard my parents were talking and arguing about a certain matter last night, I wasn't eavesdropping but they were too loud

They even mentioned about rivals and stuffs that I don't know, business terms maybe but whatever I don't have any idea

I arm stretch before I started packing my stuffs.

...

"What?! We will stay there for a year?!" I asked in complete despair, my voice chorus inside the car

I thought we will only stay there for weeks but it turns out it wasn't. I can't live in there, I just want to stay here in Beijing

My mom puckered her lips, "Dylan, as much as we want to stay in Beijing we can't. I have overseas work and your dad is working on our papers for divorce."

"So this isn't about business?"

"No, sweetie. Dad just made an excuse so you'll obliege" Mom said while stiffling a soft chuckle.

I throw my arms in the air. Here we go again, the divorce.

I don't even know why we ended up here. I mean my parents doesn't really have any issues,

"But are you guys really going to divorce?"

She nods her head. "Yes and can we please not talk about it anymore sweetie? I promise you'll live comfortable in Hangzhou. Your father and I will still provide whatever you want"

I sighed in relief. Thank goodness because if they don't. I may not be able to survive in that place.

They can't blame me. They raise me having a silver spoon in my mouth.

I rested my head as I watch the view on the window beside me. We're going further and the buildings that I often see is already being replaced with trees and branches slowly.

My phone beeps. Text message from a good friend; Xiong.

...

I got out from the car as soon as we reached our spot.

It took us forever to be here and I'm exhausted, it's even a bit of annoying too because of the mosquitos that kept on flying over me

"Wang Family, Welcome to your new house!" The middle aged woman greeted.

"Awe, Thank you Mrs Zhi for these! By the way this is my son Dylan" My mom greeted back then pulled me.

The woman whom I presume is Mrs Zhi, smiled. "Nice to meet you dear, you're a good looking man."

I only nod my head. "Dylan, why don't you say thank you?" Mom whispers.

"Uh no no. It's alright, teenagers these days. My daughter does that also"

"You have a daughter? Look son, you won't be bored living in here. Our landlady has a child. I'm sure you can get a long with her." Dad mouthed.

"Yes, Mr. Wang she's about the same age as him. I'm sure, you two could hang she's pretty boyish." She jokingly said.

Hang with her? More like be in a relationship with her.

I smirk.
