Meanwhile Youn arrived there. "Hmm-Hmm-Mmm." Youn coughed as he went near Zhan and Yibo. They were still holding onto their pinky. They turned to see the person. "Youn Ge." Yibo exclaimed with a smile. But it took a second , and his face lost all it's color. 

"Who's she?" Yibo asked bluntly. Youn arrived with a lady who was deliberately leaning onto his right arm. "Oh ! Her. My Girlfriend. Ling , this is Yibo." Youn said and introduced the lady to Yibo. 

Zhan saw the pained expression on Yibo's face. He felt a pang on his heart. He felt sad. 'So this must be him.' Zhan thought to himself.  

"Hello nice to meet you Yibo. He talks a lot about his Didi." Ling said and forwarded her hand to Yibo. Yibo gritted his teeth . forcefully put on a smile and shook hands with her. He was hurting. But kept the calm composer on. He was good at that. He thanked himself for his poker face.  

"I'm sorry for interrupting you two." Youn said while handing the flower bouquet to Yibo. "It's not what you think Ge. " Yibo spilt in a low tune. Youn looked at Zhan and smiled. "Hello I'm Youn." "Hello! I'm Xiao Zhan." Zhan said while bowing his respect to Youn. 

Youn noticed , Yibo staring down with a sulky face. "Then, let's have dinner together. Yibo?" He asked while bending a little to face Yibo. "Oh! Zhan join us too." he uttered while still looking at Yibo.

Yibo hummed after a little hesitation. He was already at a loss of appetite seeing Youn with another lady. They walked out of the gallery and walked to the nearest restaurant. 

They settled at one of the corner table. Youn started teasing Yibo. Meanwhile Zhan was observing Yibo. He knew Yibo wasn't in a mood to flatter-clatter with them. Youn brought up childhood topics. Zhan saw an uncomfortable aura marked Yibo's face. But he couldn't dare to speak up. 

"Ge stop it please." Yibo said in a deep tone. "What is it? Come on we are all close ones here." Youn said as he poked Yibo on his cheeks. Both Ling and Zhan frowned. They looked at each other for once. Zhan looked at Yibo. He was actually naïve in front of Youn. Zhan was angered. he didn't felt good seeing Yibo hurt.

"Oh! How did you two met?" Youn finally asked his hand still squeezing Yibo's shoulder. "It's not what you think." Yibo tried to explain but was cut by Zhan. "We met in the Uni. And yes we recently started dating." "Why did you say that?" Yibo tried to deny , but Zhan continued. 

" And I don't like you touching him. I'm not comfortable with that. Please don't continue it." Zhan said directly staring into Youn's eyes. Youn quickly removed his hands. Yibo was dumbstruck , couldn't help but stare at Zhan. 

"Wow ! Possessive huh." Youn said while looking at Yibo. "It's not what you think." Yibo screamed. He clenched his fist and clapped on the table in anger. He didn't utter another word and walked off. Zhan still bid them goodbye and walked out to find Yibo. 

Zhan saw Yibo running towards his car. "Wait. Where are you running ?" Zhan stuttered and hold onto Yibo's arm from behind. Yibo pulled off his hand and continued, "When did I agreed to be with you?" Yibo screamed. His eyes red. Trying hard not to drip the tears. 

"Calm down please. I'm sorry to say that. But I couldn't take it when he tried to humiliate you." Zhan said in a comforting manner. He reached out his hand and grasped at Yibo's hand. Yibo flinched but , this time didn't pull back his hand. 

"Whatever he does to me doesn't concern you?" Yibo screamed and bit his lower lip. "Yaa! I helped you and you're throwing your wrath at me." Zhan said frowning. 

"I'm mad coz of you." Yibo screamed and pulled back his hand. Zhan felt a pang on his heart. But decided to defend himself, "You're angry coz he don't love you back. He only think of you as his little brother. Don't you blame on me. If this your red thread theory, then it's just a shitty crap." Zhan said in a raised voice. Yibo flinched and lowered his head. He punched Zhan on his face. He closed his eyes and tightened to fight back the tears. 

Zhan was taken aback. "You ...." He paused, stared at Yibo. Seeing the younger one fight with his own emotions he stayed quiet. He coughed to calm himself.

"I need to go." Yibo hissed , with tightly closed eyes. Zhan hummed. Yibo turned and quickly walked off and settled in his car. Zhan stood and stared until the car merged along the traffic on the road. 

Yibo let go of his tears. He was a sobbing mess by the time he reached home. He didn't get out the car. He leaned his head on the stirring wheel and cried. Finally his tears dried down and his throat was sore. He moved out of the car and leisurely walked up to the house. 

"You came. Why so gloomy ? Did you cried? Weren't you happy today?" Mr. Wang asked Yibo was at the living hall watching TV. "Good Night dad. I'm fine. Just a bit tired. " He lied and walked up to the stairs. He didn't bother to change or even shower just landed on the bed all exhausted. 

Meanwhile Zhan was little curious with himself. He was in his room , staring at Yibo's T-Shirt. He stretched his hand and took the T-Shirt in his hand. He hold onto it tight , while hallucinating Yibo's gloomy and sulky face. 

And then he remembered them holding onto their pinkies. "Ahhh !" He screamed and scratched his nape with the free hand. He sighed and laid back at the bed. His legs still swinging at the edge of the bed. He stared at the ceiling , engulfed in his thoughts. 

Next day as usual as after Zhan left for his classes , Yibo visited Zhan's house before going for his classes. But it was little different. Yibo flinched a little on seeing Zhan calling him. He took the phone and excused himself. He walked out of the house to talk. 

"Hello. This is Zhan." Zhan said the moment Yibo hold on to the phone. "I Know. What is it?" Yibo said plainly. "Uhhh ! Actually I'm sorry I was too harsh yesterday. I'm sorry. " Zhan murmured. 

Yibo smiled, "It's fine. I'm sorry too for punching you." He said shyly. "I deserved it. It's okay." Zhan said with a chuckle. They talked a while and hung up. 

Yibo bid goodbye to Mr. Xiao and drove to Uni.
