One week after the funeral of the late Ex-Chief Xiao Wu Tong was held, the orphaned man drunk his sorrows away. He remembered the charred corpse of his father as the firemen painstakingly dug it out of the fallen burnt debris. He remembered his sister's vegetative hopeless state inside the hospital ward. His lovely sister's smile that can rival that of the sun was now gone. His father's gentle eyes are now lifeless.

If only he came home that day.

If only he didn't take that case.

If only he ate dinner with his family.

But would anything change if he arrived that day?

No. Nothing will change.

Having this conclusion in mind, he found his feet dragging him towards a bar beside the famous hotel in Beijing. He went inside the bar and ordered two bottles of Pincer Shanghai Strength. He opened the wine chugged its contents like his life depended on it. After downing half of the wine, he started to get a little tipsy.

He continued drinking as he clenched his hands around the small neck of bottle. He finished one bottle and started opening the other bottle, doing the same as he did on the former. He slammed the bottle on the table loudly.

In his mind, he already killed the bomber a million times and killing him one more time won't hurt one bit.

It is Wang Yibo's 16th birthday and he decided to get drunk even though he is still not legal. Besides, it is not his first time here in this certain bar. In fact, he is a regular here, ever since he turned 15. The bartenders and security guards here didn't know that he's yet to become eighteen.

Why? Because he has a fake ID, given by his father on his 14th birthday.

Bad influence? No. Preparing him for what's to come? Yes.

He went inside and sat on the private lounge that he reserved in advance. After ordering three bottles of Bacardi 151, he leaned on the sofa and a certain someone caught his eye.

"Xiao Zhan? What's he doing here?" Wang Yibo thought to himself.

He saw a bartender trying to stop Xiao Zhan from drinking any more of the alcoholic beverage. Unfortunately for the bartender, he got shoved away which resulted to the poor man falling on his butt.

Wang Yibo decided to help after drinking half of the Bacardi 151. He stood from his seat and made his way across the noisy bar towards the drunk man.

He patted Xiao Zhan's shoulder softly.

"Ahhh gege~ drinking that much might kill you, ya know?" He smiled at the wasted man.

Xiao Zhan scanned him and scoffed.

"Huh. Says the one who finished half a bottle of Bacardi 151." The older shook his head and continued drinking it.

"Stop it." Wang Yibo's forehead creased as he held Xiao Zhan's wrist in attempt of stopping him from further damaging his liver.
