The next morning...
"Zhan, what happened to you?" Yibo asked softly, stepping closer.
Zhan had just opened his eyes. As he looked around, he realized he wasn’t in his bedroom. Maybe it was a hospital room.
"Yibo, why am I here?" Zhan's eyes reflected confusion.
"You had another panic attack last night. After that, I admitted you here," Yibo sighed deeply before asking again,
"What’s happening to you, Zhan? Why do you keep having panic attacks? If you don’t tell me, how can I help you?"
Concern was evident on Yibo's face.
Zhan remained silent.
(Scene skips to two days later...)
For the past two days, Zhan hadn’t gone to college. Yubin had tried calling him to check on him.
Yibo was getting increasingly frustrated because Zhan wouldn’t say anything, and even his family had no idea what was going on. So, Yibo decided to investigate Zhan’s past himself.
Through his search, Yibo discovered that during Zhan’s school life, he had a best friend named Song Ji Yang. They were really close—one could even say they had a deep bond. But one day, out of nowhere, they completely stopped talking.
No one knew the reason, but the sudden silence between them seemed impossible to accept. Even the classmates of Zhan's school refused to believe that nothing had happened between them.
Yibo kept trying to find more information, but he couldn’t find any clues.
Meanwhile, Zhan didn’t know anything about this. His in-laws weren’t pushing him much, but his own family started accusing him of doing this on purpose and saying other strange things.
Zhan was trying to get better, but his condition only seemed to get worse.
Seeing this, Yibo took him back to their cottage house. Zhan began feeling a little better there. Following the doctor’s advice, Zhan started seeing a psychiatrist.
When Yibo tried to ask the doctor for more information, the doctor refused, saying that sharing such details would violate patient privacy.
Yibo couldn’t continue his investigation much longer because he had his own job to focus on and also needed to take care of Zhan.
Since Zhan had been feeling a bit better, he decided to continue college and finished his first year.
During this time, when Zhan was more stable, they became intimate, as everyone has physical needs.
Six months passed, and everything seemed to be going well. Zhan didn’t have any more problems, and his sessions with the psychiatrist had come to an end.
One day, Zhan was sitting by the pond in the afternoon, near the water. He was painting and feeling relaxed.
He was humming a song while painting, just enjoying the moment.
Out of nowhere, someone grabbed his hand and tried to pull him up.
"Yibo, ouch... Let go... What’s happening? It hurts." Zhan tried to pull his hand away, but Yibo didn’t let go, pulling him along.
Zhan couldn’t focus or think straight. His mind went blank.
When Yibo brought him into the room, he made him sit on the bed. Yibo placed his hand on Zhan’s back and gently pressed it.
