"Tian, are you ready?"

"No. I can't find my tie. Have you seen it? Guan Shan?"

He Tian popped his head around the corner to see He Guan Shan standing in the doorway in a perfectly pressed suit and a tie in his hand. Guan Shan huffed. "Hurry your ass up, we're gonna be late."

He Tian grinned and walked over to his husband. "Relax, baby. We've got plenty of time. They're not expecting us until 4:30."

"It's 4.P.M. and we've still got to beat traffic, chicken dick." Guan Shan thrust the tie at He Tian and stormed out the door.

He Tian chuckled. "Moody as always. Glad to see nothing changes."

"See, Guan Shan? We made it with plenty of time." He Tian whispered at the receptionist's desk.

Guan Shan glared at He Tian. "Don't get smart with me, Mr. CEO."

He Tian opened his mouth to retort something that would get him into trouble later but closed it again when a woman appeared from behind a door. She smiled at them and held out her hand nodding at each of them "Mr. and Mr. He, welcome. We're so glad you could make it."

He Tian smiled his award winning smile. "We're glad we're here."

She blushed a little, causing Guan Shan eyebrows to twitch into a frown. Clearing her throat, she nodded her head towards the doorway. "Follow me and you can have a look around whilst I sort the paperwork out."

To Guan Shan, stepping through the door was like stepping into another dimension. Suddenly, loud sounds of laughter and screaming could be heard from different directions. Guan Shan looked around at the young faces that surrounded him. Through the large window he could see masses of children playing on a swing set, a slide and running in all different directions. Few children were sat in the room, playing with their toys.

"Children ages 2-12 are based in this room," the lady spoke and then pointed to a door on the opposite side of the room. "the older children are in this room here, however we try not to separate them. Feel free to look around and I'll fetch the paperwork." She smiled, mostly at He Tian before she disappeared into a rectangular room attached to the corner of the building.

He Tian and Guan Shan looked at each other before a small smile appeared on both of their faces. "Where do we start?" He Tian asked.

"We can look outside, I guess." Guan Shan turned to look and was about to move forward when a wail caught their attentions'.

"Give it back, idiot! It's my car!"

Both boys turned to look at two children who were surrounded by a mounted of cars that had come from a tipped over box labelled 'Vehicles'. They watched as a boy ran away crying into the garden area and the other boy stood with the car in his hand and a frown on his face. Both He Tian and Guan Shan stared at the boy for a minute. He was small and looked to be around the age of 5 with ginger hair that shot out in every direction.

"What is it with angry gingers?" He Tian wondered aloud.

Guan Shan elbowed him and shot him a glare. "The kid just wanted his car back."

The two stared at each other for a minute, a soft smile touching both their faces. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" He Tian questioned quietly.

"I think so." 

He Tian and Guan Shan shared a tender quick kiss before they walked over to the boy, who had now settled himself down amongst the pile of cars and was playing contently. He Tian bent down so he was almost eye level with the child.

"Hi there." He smiled.

The kid looked up at him with big brown eyes. "Hello."

"What's your name?"

"Xing-fu*." He looked between He Tian and Guan Shan with a wondrous yet cautious gaze.

"Well, Xing-fu, I'm He Tian and this is He Guan Shan." He Tian pointed towards his husband before smiling back at the child. "How would you like to come and live with us?"

-------

Xing-fu means joyful or happy.
