" That's all ? You just want that ? " Mr Zhu asked with cautious. He is still doubting about real intention of Xiao Company. Of course, he isn't strong and powerful as Xiao Enterprise but still, the life of his family and himself is in Mr Yang's hand.
" It isn't simple Mr Zhu, but I can help your family. You can even free from his threat and stop becoming his dog. Imagine, you refuse doing something that you don't like and what if it's related to your family especially your daughters and they threatening you to harm them ? I would never do that. What I want is secret for now. All I need is, your cooperation and proofs and most importantly, this is secret between us. Are you willing too ? " Zhan said calmly. He hoping that he will agree to this as this is the only solution to end Mr Yang and his wicked dad old man's evil life.
" How can I believe you ? " He asked Xiao Zhan but he only chuckled softly. Zhan pulled out his phone, calling someone. After done, he keep back inside his pocket. Soon, the cafe's door spring opened by a little girl with a woman who is holding her. She looks like searching for someone. Zhan waved his hand to her and she smile to Zhan. She made way to them with her little girl. Mr Zhu seems really shocked.
" Daddy, daddy !! Look, this uncle said you bought this for me. This uncle really kind daddy ! He even bought us foods at home. " A little girl swaying her short arm to Mr Zhu happily. It was a box of her favourite doll. Mr Zhu looked at Zhan immediately. " Honey. I heard what happened and what our Xuan-er said is true. He really helped me and the kids. He paid the treatment for Liu too. "
The woman beside her spoke softly. Mr Zhu suddenly felt weak. When it comes to his family, he really weak. His eyes locked at his daughter playing with a pretty doll joyfully. He smiled looking at his cute little girl. If Zhan truly his saver, then he will agree.
" If my family can be safe if I agree working with you, then okay. I will give everything you need. But, make sure my family will stay safe. " He said to Zhan with seriousness inside him. Zhan nodded satisfied. " You have my word. "

" Fuck ! My property is gone now all because of that bastard Xiao ! Argh !! " A man said, throwing his stuff all over the ground. Rage and madness take over him. His eyes are burning as a fire were eating woods and crashing it into ashes. His fist formed.
" Dad, please don't be like this. Let's figure a way. I believe with your smart brain we will have back everything that means to be ours. " A young man said, calming the raging old man. He picked the scattered folders on the floor and place it back on it place. The old man smirked still in rage state but the evil smirk plastered on his mouth.
" Yes, we will son. I will snatch everything like I did before and crush him like he is a piece of paper. Crumple him and destroy him. " He said. A piece of blank paper is in his hand. His dark gaze glued to it. Slowly but full with force, he crumpled the paper and toss it in the basket trash. " That's how your fate will be Mr Xiao. "

" Boss, are you sure he believed us ?What if he tricked us ? " Yibo said as they slowly made their made to the office after a meeting they had with Mr Zhu. Zhan nodded satisfied, yet enough to assure Yibo that he got this.
" Yibo, let me ask you something. If you are a father, what do you see and what do you want to cherish the most ? " Yibo showed him a weird and puzzled face. As he was confused with Zhan's question.
" Boss, I asked you a question but you answered me with another question. " Zhan couldn't help but to chuckle at Yibo's word that came from his mouth. He pinched Yibo's cheeks. " Aiyoo our Yibo is so funny. " Cute.
" Well, I think as a father, it's my family of course. I will do anything to protect them. " Yibo said with full of enthusiasm. Zhan nodded at him. He opened the door and let Yibo enter before him. He closed the door and went to his seat, continue his explanation to Yibo.
" That's right. Father love the family the most and he will do anything to protect them even he had to sacrifice himself. So, in this case, Mr Zhu believe in us because we helped his family. If you think carefully, he can only listen to Mr Yang's order to ensure his family safety. Now, i just ensuring him that we can help both him and his family. I paid his son's treatment fee. He must be feel in debt in us. So, I am one hundred percent sure he will help us. "
Yibo slowly listen to his boss explanation. Now, he understand every little bit of it. He nodded as a small smile crept on his lips. Using a method of helping his family before talking to him is a helpful way to ensure him to work together. Our boss surely is a genius ! " Then, what should we do now ? Also, when is our next meeting with him ? "
" I will arrange that later. Now, what should we do is collecting other proof as much as we can. For example, those fake agreement letter and other stuff. The more we got, the more benefit we can have ! I just can't wait to see the day that bastard finally crush down. " Zhan curled his fingers inside his palm with his thumb on top dominating them into a fierce fist. His eyes wandered around the past. Hearing that bastard name even disturbing to him. He did a lot disgusting stuff to himself and even to the person Xiao Zhan love the most. He dare to touch Yibo and made Yibo dirty like this. He is asking for a death !
Yibo can feel a sudden rage inside him growing as well. Just how greedy is this Yang family ? After he caused Yibo's parents death, he had the gut to stole his company and even molested him before. He sure got no shame left. He promise to work harder to avenge them. He will ruin their life as much as they ruined his life before.
" Yibo, calm down. We will give them what the they deserved okay ? Don't hurt yourself for useless human like them. " Zhan saw how Yibo's facial face changed after he talked and his palm slowly bleeding due to hard grip on the wooden desk in front of him. Yibo didn't even noticed this as he just can feel madness and rage inside him.
Zhan take Yibo to the couch and bring aid kit medicine to treat his wounded palm. He applied it softly and with care, afraid that it'll hurt Yibo more.
" You are really.. Take care of yourself more Wang Yibo. Just because you're mad, don't let it out to your body. It doesn't even at it's fault. " Yibo thought he was deaf from Zhan's words earlier. His focus now only to his boss. His eyes soften. He can't stop staring at Zhan. What is happening ? His heart beating so fast, his eyes glued on the latter's beautiful face.
" Wang Yibo !! Oh my god, oh my god Yibo ! " A scream sounded so loudly. It can almost reached to five block houses from there. Zhan run as fast as he can to the fallen boy with bleeding knee near him.
" Ouch.. " Yibo whimpered as he held his knee between his palm. He tried blowing soft wind to his bleeding knee to soothe it out but it causes more pain for him. Zhan with heavy breath saw Yibo's bleeding knee kneeled down in front of him. He was so worried that he might lose his mind. " Are you okay ? " He asked worriedly.
" I guess so. It stings a bit. " Yibo said looking at the wound and Zhan repeatedly. Zhan could only face palmed himself at Yibo stupidity.
" You stupid kid of course it stings ! You're bleeding. Why didn't you bring your kneepads before skateboarding ? "
" I forgot. I was excited to come out playing with you. " Yibo innocently spoke. Zhan only sighed deeply. He turned his back around intending to carry Yibo back to his house to treat his wound. Yibo who understand it, wrapped his arm around Zhan's neck and he stood up.
They started walking as Zhan carried him. Even though Yibo is the younger, his body seems heavier. But Zhan don't mind at all. " Don't be forgetful like this anymore. You scared me to death. " Zhan softly said. He meant to say slowly, not wanting Yibo to hear but how is that even possible ? Yibo literally on his back, directly leaning to his neck.
" Ey Zhan-ge, are you worried of me ? "
" Of course I am. "
" Does it mean, you love me ge ? "
Zhan was taken aback. Even though he is a kid, love that Yibo asked wasn't love as a friend. But, more than that. Zhan smiled in pain. Yibo will always think him as friend after all. " I do, I love you Yibo. So, don't hurt yourself again in the future okay ? "
" Okay old man. " Zhan scoffed at his sudden nickname. Later, they both laughing and joking around like nobody can feel those happiness. They are in their own world. No one can feel how they feel towards each other.
W- what the hell he just thinking again ?! Did he think his boss as Xiao Zhan again ? What the heck is happened to him ?! After meeting with his boss, everything can be called weird around him. He shake his head strongly as it can help him get rid it off.
" You okay boy ? What's with frustrated face ? I told you, I will help you okay ? So, don't think about it anymore. Remember okay, don't let hatred grow inside you. It will ruin your life. Your parents would be sad too. "
Zhan said smiling softly to Yibo. He ruffled Yibo's hair as he squinted his eyes and scrunching his nose cutely. He stood up, keeping back the aid kit in the cabinet. Yibo was frowned surprisingly at Zhan cute action earlier. His brain wasn't able to working well.
" D- did he just scrunched his nose at me ?! My heart oh my god.. "
