Hello guys!

My mood is strangely good today so sorry if my writing style has taken an abrupt turn. This chapter is so long (by my standards) that I DID NOT proofread/edit. 

I fricking promise we're gonna get somewhere today. I CAN'T KEEP WRITING JUST FLUFF AND IDK WALKING AND EATING SCENES. LIKE WHERE'S THE EXCITEMENT.

I have a whole arc planned but idk how to start it T-T

Anyways, the goal is that next chapter I start getting into this arc's main conflict. 

BTW I chose ice-skate, not because of Yuri on Ice tho that is something I would do, but because I actually take ice-skating lessons and so I actually know a little bit more about it than some other sports??? Also cause it makes more  sense than lets say.. swimming (you'll see why later)

100% third person... sorta... I can't be bothered right now ok..?

The room was large... obviously - but it was much larger than what Xiao Zhan initially expected. At most he thought that maybe they'd get 2 rooms, a living room and the bedroom. He expected that he'd have to sleep on a small extra bed in the living room but unexpectedly this room not only had a living room, a huge balcony, more than one toilet but also 2 bedrooms!! (I swear these sorta suites have to exist. Never been to one, just assuming from how extra people can be nowadays.)

Wang Yibo was less surprised. He had been in many different environments and been to many different places, considering his job. Plus... although Xiao Zhan was the PA and should've been the one making the plans, Wang Yibo was the one who did. It's not that Xiao Zhan wouldn't do them. It was Wang Yibo who refused to tell him (XZ) the requirements for this trip. Xiao Zhan had no idea what the man wanted to do, go, and how much he was willing to spend. In the end, after many attempts he was finally given some instructions:

'You... stop worrying.' His highness finally bestowed upon him the privilege of some communication, 'I'll just go copy some tour's itinerary.'

??? 'So... I don't need to do anything???' Xiao Zhan asked.

'No'

In fact, the truth was, Wang Yibo just wanted to fit in a whole load of what could be considered 'childish things' into their schedule. He was just to embarrassed to tell Xiao Zhan this. Throwing the responsibility of having a schedule that - for all anyone knows - could be planned by a 12 year old seemed like the perfect excuse.

Xiao Zhan who was overwhelmed by the sheer size of their hotel room, the change in environment, the emotional trauma of having to check in (at an airport) for the first time in years as well as the sudden discovery of his fear of heights, was too dreary to acknowledge anything else. He walked over to the smaller bedroom, gave his luggage a light push, watching it roll over to some corner of the room before collapsing on his bed whilst Wang Yibo was still outside talking to the hotel staff.

Personal assistant who?

In all honesty, Xiao Zhan still didn't know why Wang Yibo even bothered hiring him. He had hardly done anything work related so far. It was getting out of hand. He had even stopped paying attention to things he shouldn't be doing... like escaping to his room to lie down whilst his employer was still talking to the hotel staff. Their roles have obviously seemed to have swapped. He had no idea what that poor hotel receptionist must be thinking at this time. Why is this young master, dressed in nice clothes, with expensive accessories talking to me whilst that guy in clothes from... what the second-hand store(?) just left to sleep?

Of course in reality the only thing that made the receptionist seem pitiful was that any guest could view her as this close-minded.
