Xiao Zhan looked at the shameless youth  in front of him. The flippant youngster refused to go home and insisted to stay to "take care of his Gege". Though at his wits end, his tone remained calm as he tried to coax the younger boy. "I'm fine already. Such a big man, I don't need to be taken care of!"

The youth remained oblivious of the other's frustration as he was determined to stay. His head bowed, voice barely audible, filled with grievance. "I just...I just want to take care of Gege."

Zhan gazed at the youngster,who looked extremely wronged with his head bowed, and felt extremely tired. The latter looked like a lost puppy who was waiting for his master's affection, it surely made one unable to refuse. With Yibo's persistence, Zhan eventually agreed, "Fine!You can stay."

Upon hearing Zhan's approval, Yibo's demeanor immediately took a 180 degrees turn. Eyes sparkling with joy as he looked up at Zhan. "Gege is the best!"

Zhan realized that he has been played but is now unable to retract his decision, he stood up and snatched Shizi who was happily sleeping on Yibo's lap. The cat was startled awake and thus began to scratch but it was immediately coaxed when Zhan stroked it's fluffy fur. Purring softly, it snuggled on it's owners arms before going back to sleep. Without sparing a glance at the scheming youth, he entered the room at the end of the corridor. 

Zhan placed the white furball on the bed, watching it stretch it's pearly white furry legs before going back to sleep. Zhan rubbed his face on the sleeping cat's fur as he complained. "Shizi, your master has been fooled by that innocent looking youth! And you, you unfilial kid, sleeping on his lap! Hmph!" Zhan poked the poor kitten.

With it's eyes still closed, Shizi smacked Zhan's nose with it's front paw before going back to sleep. Zhan frustrated with his pet's lack of attention, stood up grumpily and walked towards the bathroom for a bath.

Yibo looked up from his phone when he heard the sound of a door opening. He was  captivated by the person who came out of the room, hair slightly, wearing a large grey sweater and cotton shorts. He obviously didn't have a small stature, but upon seeing him, he inexplicably seemed somewhat small... and very cute.

A soft note of a xiao was heard, waking Yibo from his transfixed state. He looked down at his phone and read the confirmation message of the driver, who has been waiting for him downstairs for more than an hour.  

"Here. Go and shower. I'll cook dinner." His tone was monotonous but his eyes shone with malice as he handed a pair of bright pink pajamas to the younger youth. "Here change into this."

Yibo stared at the person infront of him, the corner of his lips couldn't help but rise upon seeing the other's satisfied expression. Gege is indeed very adorable! 

His tone was dripping with playfulness, "Thanks, ge. Where's the bathroom?"

The youth looked unaffected by the cute pajamas. Looking displeased, Zhan grunted in annoyance, before answering. "Use the one in my room. The other is clogged, haven't found someone to fix it yet."
