Switch Destiny

Chapter 4

It was the strong and imperious voice of Bai Yu Tong that echoed around Yao's ear, driving him to disregard those racists taunt of the other guys coming towards them. Zhan Yao looked at Bai Yu Tong, the man who was his protective cloak in the cold winter.

He was a good friend, a roommate and the most annoying helpful brat he was glad to encounter in his life. The two were face to face now with those big mouthed boys that unexpectedly bowed to Bai Yu Tong and greeted only him like Zhan Yao was a transparent wall.

"Bai Yu Tong right?" He was that famous since he comes from one of the wealthiest families of the country. Everyone knew who he was only the clumsy Zhan Yao that had no idea on who this man was. If he knew, he would probably be mentally disabled.

Bai Yu Tong could control this whole place with his tiny finger because of his father wealth and power. He had a strong character, sarcastic full of ego and selfishness yet inside of him lays down a soft feeling towards the poor and weak people. He made sure to separate between greed, contentment and modesty.

"Yes" he uttered promptly with an unpleasant lazy tone.

"Can we talk to you?

"I am with my roommate, plus I don't know any of you so I can talk to you" Bai Yu Tong draw a scary expression on his face. His eyes were shooting fire and he showed them disgust and hatred, he grabbed Zhan Yao by his wrist and walked in between them. He was so annoyed with their previous behaviour.

Not long before he stopped walking and averted his eyesight to his beloved roommate. Zhan Yao locked his eyes with Yu Tong's bloodshot ones as they penetrate through his soul, with the invisible gun in his hand, he was aiming at the spot where Zhan Yao's heart was thudding in his ribcage.

"Did you hear a gun shot?" Asked Zhan Yao when he was in his own world being shot to death by Yu Tong's charm and strength. Zhan Yao was drawn into his precious emotions that prevailed over his sensibility that he strongly fell for Yu Tong without a notification.

Bai Yu Tong was confused of the other man's words. He stared into his eyes for a long moment before he brushed his hair softly and asked him. His voice was low, thick, yet so intimate.

"What gun shot?

"I heard it, a gun shot that broke through my heart yet I can't bleed or feel pain" Zhan Yao said internally while his face was mirroring his turbulent emotions. He had fallen in love but he can never distinguish his new sentiments from others.

He didn’t know he was crying until a tear flowed down his soft cheek, dripping onto his neck. Swallowing past the lump in his chest and he shook his head. Bai Yu Tong felt severe pain piercing his insides while witnessing such a broken beautiful face.

"I am sorry, I was just mistaken. Shall we go" Zhan Yao broke the soft long gaze and walked ahead of Yu Tong who just smiled and followed him. He hit him hard on his head to distract him from drowning more into his emotions.

"You, why did you hit me?" They run after eachother making people there laugh at them from their childish behaviour. Zhan Yao quickly got over his sadness and was busy holding a grudge against Yu Tong to return the strong hit.

Lady Mo was sitting in the big garden with Madame Lin both chatting about Bai Yu Tong's future. They get along very well when they have the same ways of thinking. Madame Lin is so kind and enormously generous just the opposite of lady Mo who always  pretends to be.

"I am worried about him" sighed Yu Tong's mother while sipping from her tea.

"I know someone there who can keep us updated, please don't worry. I will do my best to help him with everything if I can" Lady Mo seemed to care for him more than his mother. She raised him and gave all the love and support a parent could give to their own child.
