"Zixin, the boss's uncle is here," Zixin received a call from the guardhouse.

He is sitting at Xiao Zhan's office doing all the work for him.

"Please let him in," he said on the other line then cut off the call.

As he was busy sorting out and doing all his work, the door of Xiao Zhan's room opened. Yanhao entered with his guard behind him. "Oh, hi Mr. Secretary," he greeted upon seeing Zixin.

Zixin stood from his seat and bowed, "Good day, Mr. Xiao," he greeted.

"Is my nephew not here?" He asked him as he looks around.

"I apologize sir but the boss is on vacation right at this moment, he'll be coming back tomorrow so if you want I can tell him to contact you as soon as possible," Zixin politely answered with a smile.

"Hm," Yanhao hummed, he walked near him and smirked, "You look pretty today, Mr. Secretary," he uttered and grabbed his hand and kiss his knuckle.

Zixin felt shy at his compliment, he thought that he should separate himself to his work, and this is work, "I hope you won't do this again, Mr. Xiao, I'll let this slide," he said and bowed. "Is there anything important you want to tell the boss, sir? I can tell him for you," he suggested and moved a step away from him. "Tob, get Mr. Xiao a drink," he whispered to Tob who is just standing beside the couch where Zixin is working.

"Hm, aggressive," Yanhao muttered with a wide evil grin. "Well, I just want to visit my dear nephew, and check the house," he paused, "It will probably need some reconstruction from here and there and some decorating to be done," he smiled.

"Please don't let my nephew be worried about something," he said to him and smiled sarcastically, "By the way, the commemoration? Is it doing well?" He asked and sat on the sofa.

"Yes, sir. All are well prepared as of this moment," Zixin answered. Then Tob came back with a cup of coffee, he served it in front of him.

"Hm, better do well. I know my nephew miss his parents as much as I do," he made a sad face then sipped on the coffee, "But dead people need to rest and only be remembered. My brother did well when he was alive and I think it is a good thing that he rested early from all this tiring work," he sighed.

"Well, anyway, I just here to check something. Tell my nephew I visited and tell him I'll see him soon at the party," he gave them a smug face then stood from his seat. "Then, I'll be on my way," he said and walked to the door. But before leaving he stopped at his tracks, "By the way, the coffee seems to be bland. You better perfect it while I'm still not leading," he uttered and waved at them.

Zixin's and Tob's brows, "Huh?" they thought as their brows furrowed in confusion,

.

"Boss, I didn't know you knew how to swim!" Yibo was amazed. They just came back from swimming in the ocean. Yibo is wiping Xiao Zhan's hair, they were now at the hut.

"The young master used to take swimming classes, Mr. Yibo," Kevin smiled, he was left at the hut alone while the others swim a while ago.

"Wow, that's great. I learned swimming just my father teaching me," Yibo answered happily.

"Hm, that's great," Xiao Zhan remarked as he closes his eyes while Yibo dries his hair.

"Hm, yeah," Yibo uttered, his tone suddenly saddened. He remembered his father is still missing and he's worried about what's happening to him right at this moment.

"Hm, what's the matter?" Xiao Zhan asked when he notices his sudden change of mood.

Yibo flinched, "O-oh, it's nothing. hehe," he said stopped his hands, "Here, it's well dried," he smiled, but deep inside his worriedness for his father is bugging him.

"You sure?" Xiao Zhan asked and turn his head at him.

"Y-yes boss," he stuttered and avoided an eye to eye contact with him.

Xiao Zhan sulked when he saw his eyes avert, he sighed then stood, "I'll just go pick some seashells," he said and went out of the hut.

"B-boss? Want me to come with you?" Yibo asked.

"Nah, you stay there and rest," he said and continued walking.

Yibo is flustered, by the atmosphere around him, he knows something's wrong. He immediately stood and followed meters away from him. he's worried that in case something happens to him he's there to the rescue.

Kevin chuckled as he watches the two getting father away from the hut, "Young master just had himself a good partner," he mumbled.

Just then, Zhuocheng overheard his father, he came to the hut to pull his father to the water since he'd been just watching them.

"Who is?" Zhuocheng asked when he heard him mumble.

"Young master," he answered still not averting his eyes. Zhuocheng looked at where his father is looking and saw Yibo sneaking as he follows Xiao Zhan.

Zhuocheng's brows furrowed, "What's he doing?" he asked.

"Protecting the young master," Kevin answered and chuckled.

Zhuocheng is still confused, "huh?" But then he remembered his mission why he came back to the hut.

He suddenly grabbed his father's wrist and pulled him forcefully, "don't mind them! Swim with us!" he invited him. Kevin laughed, "Okay, okay, just don't pull me," he said but let himself be dragged.

.

Xiao Zhan was walking by the shore, farther away from the hut. He is looking down at the sun, trying to spot a beautiful seashell.

After some time of walking, he finally saw something. He picked it up and stared at it, "beautiful," he mumbled.

"Bo, come here," he called.

"EEK!" Yibo yelp, he didn't think he'd be noticed.

Xiao Zhan turn to him, "Come here," he instructed.

Yibo sighed, 'Am I not that good at hiding?' he thought as he walks near him with his head lowered.

"Look, I got a beautiful seashell, pretty isn't it?" he uttered with a hint of happiness as he shows the seashell to him.

Yibo smiled, 'just now, he looks like a kid getting mesmerized with just a seashell,' he said inside his head as he looks at Xiao Zhan's smiling face.

"I want you to have it since it's beautiful," he said and grabbed Yibo's hand and opened it so he can put the shell, then he closed them tight.

"There, I hope you won't feel down anymore," Xiao Zhan flashed a smile and turn around, and started walking away.

Yibo was stoned, he was starstruck, his heart is beating wildly, and his face feels hot. 'What just happened?' he thought.
