Yibo settles himself on the sofa in front of his father and looked in his father's direction with curious eyes.
"Yibo, I want something from you. Will you give it to me?" Asked Mr. Lan.
"What is it, Dad?" Replied Yibo.

Mr. Lan takes a deep breath and looks at his son

"I want you to get married to Wei Zhan"

Yibo was bewildered to hear his dad's wish. To say he was shocked was an understatement he was beyond shocked, he didn't want to believe that his dad will wish him to get married. He thought that he must have heard it wrong, his ears are deceiving him today. To confirm his doubts he again looked at his dad and asked again to confirm what his dad said is true or another trick of his ears.
"You want me to do what, dad", asked yibo unsure.
Mr. Lan who was observing his son's every expression this time took his son's hand in his own and looked directly into his eyes.
"Son I want you to get married to Wei Zhan"
Said, Mr. Lan emphasizing each word.

Yibo was taken aback, this time he freed his hand from his dad's grasp and took some time to calm himself. He lowered his head
"D... Da... Dad I... I..." He stuttered. After some time he said, "I can't do it, Dad."
Mr. Lan who was looking at his son with his expecting gaze sighed, "Why, son" asked Mr. Lan.

Yibo didn't have the answer to his father's question. He was not ready to get married and above that to a person whose name he has never heard in his whole life.

The silence was spreading in the study, the silence which was not for the like of its both occupant. Mr. Lan decided to break the silence of the study and after a deep breath, "Son, do you have someone in your life. I mean someone you like or someone about whom you are not sure" asked Mr. Lan somewhat being unsure. Though he knows his son has never shown any interest in relationships. He has always been an aloof person, devoid of any feelings But then why his son is so quiet, maybe he has someone about whom his heart is unsure.

Yibo who was taken aback by his dad's question didn't want to make his dad's mind filled with new thoughts, which are already filled with the thought about his marriage proposal. He immediately answered, "No, Dad it's not like that."
