Love like Pandora's box

Chapter 25.

Before going home, Yibo decided to do some grocery shopping. Right now, he was not going to buy a lot of things, just some things that he needed urgently.

He grabbed a shopping cart and strolled around in the store before grabbing all the things he needed, and since he had to walk home, he made sure that the things were not much. After he took all the things that he needed, he went to the billing counter, paid the bill, and soon exited the store.

"Yibo." He stopped once he heard someone call his name, but when he saw who it was, he rolled his eyes and started to walk away again.

But the person who was after him was persistent, as she grabbed his arm and made him turn around, "Yibo, I am talking to you."

"For the fuck's sake, just get lost, Sarah." Yibo snapped before he glared at her.

The woman before him looked at him, she was a beautiful, slim, and tall woman. She looked elegant and classy, and the air around her was dignified.

Sarah sighed as he said, "I just want to talk."

"If it is the same bullshit of how you want me to work for you, then please leave; I want nothing to do with you or your family."

"Yibo please, are you serious right now? I just want to apologize for the mistakes that my father made."

"Your father committed a crime, Sarah, he cheated my father and took everything from us, because of him my father became an alcoholic and addict, you have no idea how bad we have to suffer because of him."

"I know Yibo, I know that you had to suffer very hard and that is why I want to make up for all the mistakes that my father had made! I want you to come and work for the company that once belonged to your father as well! I promise I can help you get what is yours! Don't you wish to fight those who have wronged you?"

"Sarah please, I am never ever going there again, I know that all you want to do is just use me If you want to make things right that bad then how about you just leave me alone?"

"I can give you the shares of your father!"

"And that would make me get involved with you and your family and your company! Nah thanks that's the last thing I want. I am satisfied with where I am today."

"Really? You are satisfied? What about Luhan huh? A year ago Yuki died, you know if you had money and resources that I could provide you could have saved her! You can send Luhan to an elite school! You can give him the best education, protection living environment everything Yibo!"

"He can get everything even now! Maybe not as luxurious as you are saying but not bad as well, who says that middle class people can't rise up! Struggle is a part of life and we are good the way we are. We don't need you to worry about us Sarah."

Sarah closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose, "seriously? Are you really that selfish? Think about Luhan."

"I am thinking about him and it's better for him to stay away from people like you and your family." Sarah looked hurt when she heard Yibo say that.

"Look Sarah you are a good person, you helped me a lot when Yuki was sick but there is nothing more, I want from you, Yuki is dead when a person's time is over even god can't save them, let alone humans, Yuki is dead. Gone. Stop bringing her.

Luhan is my responsibility, I will take care of him."

"What if tomorrow Luhan's father shows up?" Sarah asked, "What if the father is a powerful person, what if he fought you for Luhan's custody? Do you think you would stand a chance then?"

Yibo clenched his fists when he heard that, "I don't want to think about that Sarah; forget it."

Sarah sighed as she looked at him, she gave up and said, "How are you?"

"Fine?"

"Liar. You look weak."

"Thanks."

"It was not a compliment."

"I know that."

Sarah sighed as she suddenly hugged Yibo. "Gosh, I am worried about you. We are childhood friends. I am sorry for what my father did. I swear, once I get more power, I will help you all I can."

Yibo hugged her back and said, "Thanks for being there for me, Sarah, but I am alright."

"If you ever need something, then you know you can call me, right?"'

"Yeah," Yibo said.

While the two talked, they had no idea that they were being watched by Zhan, who was anything but happy seeing what he saw.

But why would he care?
