Yibo knew he mustn't lose hope. He must make sure Xiao Zhan will remember him.

Back at his own apartment, he was sitting legs crossed on the floor of his living room and was meditating.

In his living room incense was burning and it was the same as thousand of years.

Sandalwood.

He remembered everything that had happened thousands of years ago.

Where the people he know and held in his heart all passed away one by one.

Even his Wei Ying.

The tears started to flow down as he thought of the moment at the hospital when the person he love the most doesn't recognize him.

His new persona. As Wang Yibo. The boy from a K-Pop group.

But inside his own abode he is Lan Wangji. Through and through.

He opened his eyes and saw that he was in total darkness.

The sun had come down while he was meditating and the sudden thought made him realise the time.

He got up and soon decided to rest. He lay in his bed and look up onto the bare ceiling in his room. He couldn't sleep.

Lan Wangji up and look out the window. From above he could see the lights from the lamp posts. No stars had appeared only the moon.

He misses the view from the Gusu Sect.

He misses everyone, even his older brother Lan Xichen who tragically passes away after a strange infection made half of the sect to die tragically.

Those who were infected were his adopted son, A-Yuan or Lan Sizhui.

Even his beloved, Wei Ying passed away few months after the tragic deaths of every single people in the sect.

He didn't realise the time passes by quickly and the sun has already risen up in the horizon.

He got up and freshened up and made something to eat. Something simple just to fill up his stomach and soon he changed to something comfortable and left his apartment and headed towards the hospital.

He picked up some food for Xiao Xiao Zhan hoping he might like something that is not bland.

As he arrived he overheard Xiao Zhan ask to his manager "Ge who was that kid yesterday?"

The manager was confused "You don't remember? He is Yibo. You two friends and used to act together in a series"

Xiao Zhan then ask "Then why does he seem like really upset?"

The manager was about to say something when he knocked on the door and opened it and let himself in.

"Good morning. Ge, Zhan-ge how are you feeling?"

Xiao Zhan was confused at how informal this kid was towards him and he finds it awkward.

"Errr I'm fine I guess" He answers and then he spotted the food Yibo was holding and ask "What is that?"

Yibo took it out from the back and showed it to him

"Your favourite food" he answered as he placed the food on the table, opening the cover and Xiao Zhan gave a big smile as he eats the food immediately.

Yibo couldn't help but smile as well. He knew Xiao Zhan would eat it.

Xiao Zhan ate and as he laid back on the bed in content he smiled.

"Thank you, Yibo" Xiao Zhan said and Yibo just smiled

"Don't worry about it ge" Yibo answered.

The manager saw the two of them interacting and then decided to do something.

"Yibo you stay and accompany Zhan. I am going to finish something in the office" the manager said and soon with a wave he left the two in the room.

There was silence as soon as the manager left.

Yibo was trying hard to say something but he ended up just sitting on the chair.

There were only silence.

Xiao Zhan just continue looking at him when Yibo did something unexpected.

He hummed a tune. A familiar tune but Xiao Zhan couldn't put a finger to where he had heard the song.

"What's the name of the song?" Xiao Zhan ask and the humming stopped.

Yibo took a glance at the older man and said "Wuji. It is the theme song for our drama"

Xiao Zhan was surprised "Really? It sounds so good. Can you play it?" He asks

Yibo just said "I forgot the lyrics but I remember the rhythm" and he continued humming to the song.

He continued humming and it made Xiao Zhan started to sing and it made Yibo's eyes widen.

Even Xiao Zhan himself was surprised

"Ge?" Yibo said as there was an awkward silence between them.

"I have no idea where that came from. The song...seem oddly familiar but I don't know from where. It's hard to explain" Xiao Zhan explained.

Yibo's smile faltered thinking it was the only hope for his Ge to remember but it was to avail.

"It's okay Ge, don't worry too much. I think you should rest" Yibo said and Xiao Zhan just nodded with a small smile. He saw the disappointed look upon Yibo's face and he couldn't understand why.

"Did I say something wrong?" He thought to himself as he closed his eyes and was thinking of Yibo's expression.

It was confusing for Xiao Zhan. He couldn't understand why the younger man was acting this way.

Xiao Zhan soon fell asleep but he had an odd dream.

He was in a lake and he saw a face of a man who looked familiar but he couldn't remember where.

He tried to touch the face but it turned into dust as he was in a dark space.

He was confused. Then he heard a song. The same song that seem familiar to him but it was played but two instruments.

A guqin and a flute.

He woke up to find Yibo was playing a guqin. He felt a familiarity with this moment and as he opened his mouth about to say something Yibo looked at him and said "I hope you will remember me my Wei Ying" and Xiao Zhan felt like everything turned black and he closed his eyes and became unconscious once again.

When he woke up he felt like everything was hitting with him in one go. The memories of them acting and the song.

He remembered him. The man in front of him.

The man who made him become more open.

The man named Wang Yibo.

The first words he said were "Didi" and at that moment he saw Yibo were in shock and a smile was upon his handsome face.

"Ge. You remember me?"The younger man ask and Xiao Zhan nodded.

It was pure happiness. But their happiness were just the beginning. What will happen next when a paparazzi manages to take a video of the two and will affect their careers.
