Unsaid emotions bloomed between Wang Yibo and Xiao Zhan at school, but they were driven apart by animosity rooted in their hearts because of Jiang Zhuocheng.
Ten years later, they find themselves face-to-face once again, the tension between them pal...
Can't let fate do its thing, Cheng takes matters into his own hands and storms into the hallway, growling and staggering. Despite being exhausted from the long day, he is determined to confront Yibo, knock his teeth out, and wipe the smirk off his face. He reaches the room where he suspects the lunatic is staying and knocks on the door. "Yibo!"
He hears no shuffling or talking from inside, so he knocks again, almost like banging, thinking the other alpha is testing his patience. "Open this damn door and face me like a man, if you are one."
No response.

"Yibo!" he screams.
Still, no response. Can't see himself as a fool, tongue-tied, or humiliated again, Cheng kicks and pounds on the door, feeling the rage building inside him. He won't back down, not after what happened, so he knocks again until a hotel staff approaches hesitantly, hovering over him and clasping his hands together. "Excuse me, sir, you can't damage hotel property and disturb others. As a guest of our establishment, I request you to..."
Cheng ignores him, continuing to pound on the door with even more force, the sound echoing down the hallway.
"Sir, if you don't..." the staff responds sternly this time, but a hand on his shoulder calms him, turning him to find two betas standing there awkwardly.
"It's all right," Fanxing reassures. "We will escort him to his room. He had a few shots, you know? Sorry for the inconvenience."
The staff gives them a hard look and sighs. "Good luck." He has doubts that the alpha really had a few shots, but who is he other than one of his fans? He lets the betas handle him and then goes to take care of the other late-night patrons searching for their rooms.
"Yibo, you coward," Cheng screams again. "Open this door."
Peixin comes up behind Cheng and puts his hands on his shoulders. "For that, he needs to be inside."
Cheng whips around to face Peixin, sweat from his hair splashing onto the beta. "What?"
"For that, he needs to be inside," Fanxing repeats, stepping forward to join Peixin. "It hadn't even been five minutes after you departed; he bothered Peng and got into a fight."
Cheng freezes, processing each word and taking his time, then grins. "Wow!"
There is no need to be surprised when Yibo is involved in something, but they can't help thinking their trouble is wiped out by creating another trouble. They were finding ways to dispose of Yibo from their band, underestimating his nature, but he proved a monkey couldn't be a monkey if it didn't bother others and get into trouble.
Feeling a weight lift off his shoulders, Cheng walks back to his room but stops when he realizes something. He and his little brother haven't eaten anything at the party, so to fill their stomachs, he needs to go down to the lobby and order some food from room service.
