We are what people called as siblings. Heck, he calls me lil brother and I call him big brother, though I am older than him by a year. Considering our height difference, well you get why it ended up that way.

I met him in Meteor Garden because he and I are each other's love teams. I played Xiayou and he played Ximen. Amd although we were lovers on screen, we are really great friends off screen.

It was awkward at first, but with the way he treated Yue and I, it's not wonder we clicked immediately. He was funny and annoying at times, but one of his notable charactertistics is that he's a gentleman.

He really took care of us,. He was always concerned whether we were too cold because of the weather or if we were so tired due to filming. Well that's Wu Xize for you. But it's also a no brainer why I started to develop unrequited feelings for him. Feelings I'm still trying to ignore. Feeling that threatened to come out because of what happened a few months after.

Wu Xize is a big brother to me.

Wu Xize is a big brother to me.

Wu Xize is a big brother to me.

I keep repeating it to myself. Because what happened last night wasn't something a big brother would do.

We just finished our photoshoot for Stream. Yue even visited us, well I asked her, one because I just miss the girl so much and two, because I didn't want things to be awkward.

It was a few months after we filmed MG and I haven't seen Xize for a long time. I know we used to hang out whenever we had scenes together before, but our busy schedules created a gap on our closeness along the way. So Yue being there gave me a sense of comfort.

"Nice work today Jiaqi." Xize said. We weren't able to converse a lot awhile ago because of the shoot. We only uttered a simple 'hello' and they already brought us to our own dressing rooms.

"You too Xize." I answered.

He walked towards me.

"How have you been? Haven't seen you in a long time." He said.

"I know. I'm great. How are you?"

"Good as anyone can be." He answered.

"By the way Yue's also here. She went to grab some coffee but she'll be back."

And just in time Yue appeared. "Hey Xize!" She greeted him with a fistbump. He then ruffled her hair. Yue really does get along with all of the F4. It's because of her and Connor that I was able to to get to know them as well.

"Hey there strong Yue. What's up?" He asked Yue.

"I'm good. Just a bit busy nowadays." She replied.

"I know. You're still filming for Another Me?"

"Just finishing up. How about you?"

"I've been here and there. Had a lot of photoshoots lately though. By the way, I'll be hanging out with Li Xize and Dy later. You guys wanna come?" He invited us.

"Sure. I'm free tonight anyway. How about you?" I turned to Yue.

"I'm in. But I'll just be there for a short while. I have an early meeting tomorrow with my management. So I can't stay long." She said.

"Dy's going to be there. It's been a long time since you've seen each other right?" Xize teased while wiggling his eyebrows.

Yue kicked him on his legs. "I know Xize, he already texted me about it. And can you please keep your voice down, others might hear."

I laughed at their banter.

"You really haven't met him for awhile?" I asked feeling sorry for her. It was only us, the F6, who knows about their relationship aside from their respective managers.

She shook her head. "No. We we're both really busy these past few months. But we text and video call all the time so it's alright."

"Well that's great. Though sometimes it can be difficult especially if you're always away from each other." I said to her remembering my failed long distance relationship before.

"I know. But we make it work anyway. So we're good." She said.

"Of course you're good. Dylan's so cheery all the time whenever he receives your texts. It's like he's surrounded by a ray of sunshine all the time." Xize spilled.

"Hey enough of us. Can we take a picture? I'm really happy to see you guys today. And I want to make Didi jealous that I hang out with you guys first." She requested.

"Of course. I really missed this, Yue. We always fooled around before." I said feeling nostalgic.

We took a couple of pictures, she also took a photo of me and Xize together asking us to do a heart sign.

"You guys really look great together." She said, trying to be a matchmaker.

Xize just laughed.

"Yue! We're like brothers, what the hell are you talking about?" I said defensively.

"I'm just saying. Anyway I'll see you guys later. I just need to run some errands." She hugged both of us.

"See you later Yue. Be sure to come!" I reminded her.

"Of course, I won't miss it for the world." Then she went ahead.

Xize then turned to me, "Do you have anything scheduled for the rest of the day?"

"No. After the photoshoot I'm free for the whole day." I informed him.

"Great! Want to grab some lunch? I'm starving." Xize asked me.

"Sure. I'll just tell my manager that I'll be gone for awhile."

"Okay. Take your time. It's your big bro's treat today." He smiled.

"Really? Is this for the bet? Are we going to HuoShaoYun? I asked excited about the food since it has a lot of great reviews.

"Sorry Jiaqi. It's a bit far from here, can we just drop by the cafe near here?"

"Sure. No problem. But you still owe me for that bet." I crossed my arms.

"I won't. I promise I'll take you there next time." He said and smiled.

I nodded and smiled back. When I turned around I clasp my hand on my chest. Damn that Wu Xize. His smile always catches me offguard.
