The morning sun had risen in the mansion and has illuminated the rooms of the mansion. The room on the third floor is still in the dark as the curtains are covering every window of the room and in this room, two figures are seen sleeping peacefully one on the bed while the other on the sofa. The wind is blowing inside the room as the two figures breathe are getting synchronizing with each other.

A peaceful and serene environment is being spread in the room when suddenly the alarm sound was heard disturbing the sleep of one on the sofa. Zhan who heard the alarm flinched awake by the sound as his reflex was to protect himself whenever any sound was heard near him. This reflex always made him curl together like a cocoon as the sound always bought him beating. Zhan when heard the sound in his reflex curled around himself and started shivering with fear mumbling, "pl..please... Don't... Don't h..h... Hurt me!"

Yibo who is sleeping peacefully didn't wake up with the alarm as yesterday was quite tiring for him so he just turned around and is about to switch off the alarm and go to his sleep which is a rare sight to be seen as the young heir is always proficient with his work and it's in his blood to be disciplined whether it's business or his personal life, but today the tiredness of the past few days is taking a toll on him and he just wants to sleep but as he is about to drift into his sleep he hears a soft mumbling from nearby. Yibo at first ignores it but the mumbling only grew a little louder, yibo when heard the voices got louder and louder, He became curious as he wants to know the source of the sound and he just wants to check up for the voice as from the way he was hearing. It was sounding that the other person might be in distress but the question which is disturbing him is from where the sound is coming. As he suddenly remembers Zhan sleeping on the sofa and the only person who can make that sound. He is about to get up and check on the other when he heard a loud sob escaping which made him fasten his action.

Zhan is shivering with fear and mumbling incoherent words which were mostly like "don't hurt me... Don't hurt me..." As his mind is playing all those scenes which were related to Mrs. Wei beating him. Zhan has now curled into a ball and waiting for an order of Mrs. Wei to hit him forgetting the surrounding he is present in as his mind has taken him back to Wei Mansion. Zhan who is curled into a ball is mumbling with fear when he heard the shuffling of seats around him and he remembered the time when Mrs. Wei hit him with a belt because he was late for work. Zhan who heard the sound let out a sob and the words being, "please. Please don't... Don't hurt... Me.."

Yibo when heard the words felt worried for the boy as from the sound it is like the boy is in great distress. Yibo slowly moved toward the place where zhan is sleeping and sat on his side to come in level with the sleeping boy. Yibo after taking a deep breath spoke, "Zhan"
Zhan hearing his name being called flinched in fear as the voice is unknown to him and tightened his hold on the blanket as he trembled in fear.

Yibo seeing this worried and unconsciously his hand moved to the place where Zhan is sleeping and he tried to remove the blanket. Zhan when felt the blanket getting removed clutched it tightly as if holding to the last straw of defense he had to protect himself as more tears rolls down from his eyes. Yibo on feeling the blanket get tightened applied more force to remove his blanket and after a tug of war for a few minutes, Yibo is successful in removing the blanket from the body of the boy and he is shocked to see the condition of the person in front of him.
