Chapter 11. Not guilty...

After a long conversation with Louis, Yibo finally began to understand what was going on.

"It's not your fault Yibo, you just wanted to be there for your best friend and help him in his time of need. But underneath it all, you missed something important. Namely that the young master waited every night for you to come to him and at least spend the night with him. But you didn't come and spend day and night with your best friend and so the young master had to assume that your best friend is more important to you". Louis explained.

"I'm sorry. I completely overdid it with my caring. I just wanted to show him my gratitude and friendship for being there for me so many times, and I completely lost track." Yibo replied depressed.

"You are not to blame. You are totally inexperienced in relationships and therefore innocent. And I don't think the young master will take it badly either, but he must be very hurt. Give him a few days at his mother's and when he comes back you will talk to him. But then your best friend had better be back at his home." Said Louis and tapped Yibo lightly on the shoulder.

"I'm really ashamed." Said Yibo depressed.

He had only meant it well and wanted to help his best friend and that ended up in hurting Zhan. For him this is the first relationship ever and he tried to do everything right.

Zhan should be proud to have him as his boyfriend. But Zhan wasn't that right now. Because of him, Zhan was sad and felt rejected. That's not what he wanted.

"Don't worry, the young master is smart and knows you only had good intentions and that you didn't mean to hurt him intentionally. You'll see, in a few days he'll be back home and then you'll talk." Said Louis before he went outside to wash the car.

Yibo went back to his apartment to talk to Seungyoun, asking him to go home. Or to stay for the rest of the time, as long as the damage was still not repaired, which Yibo didn't believe, he should stay with his parents.

Even though Seungyoun is his best friend and he owes him a lot, now it's enough. And it's about time that Seungyoun goes home.

Yibo entered the living room and saw that Seungyoun was sitting on the sofa with a packed bag. "Ah good you're here, my landlord called me and told me I can come back to my apartment." Seungyoun said.

"Really? Two days ago, you said your landlord said it would be at least another week." Yibo replied confused.

"Funny, isn't it? Anyway, he called me and said I could come back. So I'm all packed and I'm on my way. Thank you for your hospitality and give my regards to your employer." Said Seungyoun to Yibo.

"You know what? It pisses me off that you keep calling my boyfriend my employer. It's Xiao Zhan, my boyfriend! The man I love and have a relationship with. And who's incredibly important to me and who completely changed my life. With him, I've been happier than I've ever been in my life. Do you understand? He is my boyfriend!" Scolded Yibo loudly in anger.

"Still!" Seungyoun murmured, which Yibo could not understand, though. Then he cleared his throat and said "Yes OK, sorry. I promise I'll be good to your lover."

He hugged Yibo goodbye and left the apartment as quickly as he had entered it. Yibo just watched him shaking his head. "At last. Now all I have to do is make sure my ZhanZhan comes home." Said Yibo to himself and picked up his phone.

Yibo wrote a message to Zhan, "Seungyoun is gone. I'm sorry I didn't notice earlier that I neglected you and us. I hope you will come home soon. I miss you. Love you, your Yibo."

After sending the message to Zhan, he went outside to help Louis. Meanwhile, he had started pruning the bushes. Yibo didn't know anything about it, but with Louis' help he managed to do it quite well.

"Seungyoun's gone as I saw." Said Louis, when the two of them paused to have a drink.

"Yeah, I was just about to talk to him and ask him to leave. But he was already sitting there with his bag packed and said his landlord called him and said he could go back to his apartment." Yibo replied, still confused about how fast it suddenly went.

"If I may be so honest. I think he was here for the young master. I have noticed he often tried to have a conversation with the Young Master when you were out. And a few days ago, I found him in the hallway at night, about to go upstairs." Said Louis.

"Sorry? Seungyoun went to see Zhan in the middle of the night?" Yibo asked shocked and suddenly he realized a lot of things.

Not only did he want to constantly play them off against each other by keeping them away from each other. He talked badly about Zhan and still kept asking about him. He always wanted to know when Yibo had to leave, how long he would stay away and if he should check on Zhan during that time.

"So Seungyoun wasn't here because he needed my help. But because he wants something from my boyfriend! He wanted to sabotage my relationship so we'd break up and he could have his way!" Said Yibo wheezing.

"At least that's what it looks like. But the young master would never fall for him. His heart belongs to you and there is no doubt about it. Besides, he always refused Seungyoun at the door. I think the Young Master realized what your best friend was really after." Said Louis and handed Yibo a sandwich.

"And I'm an idiot for not noticing." Said Yibo, horrified at his own stupidity at not having recognized the truth.

When Yibo looked at his phone to see what time it was, he had found a new message. It was from Zhan.

"Don't worry, honey. I'll be back in a day or two. I'm sorry I didn't let you know, it happened too fast. My mother called me because she wasn't feeling well. Miss you and love you too." It was in the message.

Relieved, Yibo read the message to his trusted Louis. To him, Louis was like a father. From the beginning, Louis had taken care of Yibo and had been there for him. Not as a colleague or friend, but like a caring father.

Yibo was really happy to have found someone to look up to. Someone he can seek advice from and who always has an open ear for him.
