Love like Pandora's box

Chapter 38.

Zhan was royally pissed as well ever since he had that argument with Yibo, he still can't believe that Yibo could say something like that.

Being an escort? How can he even think like that? Zhan felt so angry at him that day, that he wanted to just drag him here and lock him and out some sense into his brain.

"Dad." Luhan suddenly called out to him. The two were sitting on the dining table having their lunch. These days,  Zhan had spent a lot of time with Luhan. he remembered that he was around Luhan's age when his parents had come for him and his life had changed. He knew how it felt to be neglected by your own parents, so he made sure to never make those mistakes.

When he is with Luhan, he makes sure to give him all his attention, and he knew that it was important to form a stronger bond with his son. Luhan was also a well-behaved and calm child.

"Yes, Luhan."

"Can we meet Uncle? I want to show him my drawings." Luhan said, "I also want to show him all my toys and gifts."

Zhan smiled as he gently patted his head. "Sure, right now your uncle is busy, but I promise that you will see him soon."

"Really?"

"Yes, really, then can we all go for a picnic or somewhere fun?"

"Somewhere fun? Where do you want to go?"

"On a beach, I want to see the sea."

"Alright, I will take you there."

"Hurray, uncle will be happy too."

"Of course." Zhan said as he pinched his cheek.

Zhan then took a sip of water and thought there was no way that he would let Yibo do something stupid—absolutely not. He was not going to sit by and see him ruin his life.

Suddenly his phone rang, and he saw that it was Sarah who was calling him. "What is it?"

"Hi... um, can you reach Yibo? I have been calling him, but he is not answering, and he is not at home as well."

Zhan immediately said, "Wait, I will try to call him."

"Has he reached out to you to talk to Luhan?"

"No." Zhan said as he cut the call and called Yibo but just as Sarah said he was not answering, he sighed as he got up anxiously. Yibo's words roamed in his mind: What if he did something stupid? Something that he would regret later?

"Mrs. Nelson, please take care of Luhan. I will be back soon." He said as he grabbed his car keys and ran out of the house, first he went to Yibo's house where he saw Sarah, and so far she was also not able to reach him, "the weather is getting so bad, where the hell is he?"

Zhan sighed as he kept his hand over his head and thought for a while: Where can he go? Is there really any place that he would go?

Zhan thought about all the scenarios and then sat in his car and drove away. He looked at a few places before he finally stopped in front of the cemetery. He parked his car, went inside, and sighed with relief when he saw Yibo there, sitting in front of Yuki's grave, but with how less clothing he was wearing, Zhan got really worried about him.

He quickly went to him and grabbed his arm. "Why are you here? And why are you not wearing proper clothes? Are you dumb? Get up."

Yibo was literally shaking, but he was still stubborn as he yanked his hand back and said, "don't touch me and get lost; I don't want to talk to you right now."

"I don't care whether you want to talk to me right now or not! You are going to die from the cold if you keep this up."

"Very good; I guess you would be really happy then."

"SHUT UP" Zhan said as he moved closer and finally noticed Yibo's wounds. "What the fuck, what happened? Who did this?" He asked with rage as he tried to touch his face, but Yibo moved back and stumbled back. Zhan finally caught him and touched his forehead, and he realized that Yibo had a very high fever and that he had been injured as well.

Without listening to any more protests, Zhan forcefully took him to the car and made him sit in the car.

At this point, Yibo was too weak to fight because his fever just got worse, and he leaned against the window and closed his eyes, while Zhan quickly drove away.
