Incident happened but it left a very tormenting and torturing impact on Xiao Zhan's mind. He was disturbed psychologically and emotionally. He laid in his bed for hours, thinking about where he was lacking? Why he lacked? He was not like this. What he actually missed in his intelligence? He was carefully analyzing the whole situation. He had to sort out on his own. He doesn't need anyone's help. Many hours of thinking and finally a red dot appeared to be blinking in his mind.
Where was Kai Zhang during the whole commotion? When did he escape from the scenario? Why he was not there? Was he a part of this whole scheme? He had to find out this. He reached his phone to call Kai Zhang. He dialled his number but the machine replied, his number was off. He had to go to the office to find out the truth but he was on leave and it was only his second day after the incident.
He got out of his dilemma, and tried to solve his case himself. He now only needed to go to office.
*********************************
He went to Shaolin Enterprises, astonishing the people at work. He was looking sturdy, a fair look of aloofness on his face, his look was steady and resolved. Office knew that he was on leave for a week as for now. He went to his office room, asked over the phone for whether Kai Zhang was present or not, he got to know that Kai Zhang was currently in Yibo's office so he demanded his presence in his own office after he is freed from there. He came out urgently from his office room to demand coffee from his secretary as she was not picking her work phone. He was at his threshold and remained struck there, Yibo was at his own threshold with Kai Zhang, their gazes were locked unintentionally, several moments, Xiao Zhan's fierce while Yibo's keen to find the pain of the other. Then, Xiao Zhan's wavered to Kai Zhang and the spell was broken. Xiao Xhan's lopsided smirk played the trick as he moved towards them both, eyes focused on Kai Zhang.
"Hello! My partner but certainly not in crime." There was a bite to his words and his gaze was unsettling Kai Zhang, while Yibo's gaze was still intended on Xiao Zhan.
"Hey, Zhan! What a p-pleasant surprise, I guess! How are you h-here? Were you not on leave?" He was stuttering.
"Well since you disappeared on me last time so I had to end my vacation leave to give a surprise to you." Xiao Zhan had a mocking smile. "Can I have some private talk with you?" He was stern towards the end. Kai Zhang moved along while Xiao Zhan resumed his gaze on Yibo who was still apprehensive.
*********************************
Mi Ya was in kitchen when the door bell rang. "I'll get it." She probably declared to Xiao Zhan.
"Hey, babe!" Mi Ya chirped. She was clearly happy, she hugged Yibo while Yibo fist-bumped at her hugged back. "Is Xiao Zhan home?"
"Yes! And now you're here. Please, go talk to him. He has barricaded himself since last week's incident. I'm so worried. He's not telling me anything." She was wearing horrified expressions now.
"Hey, hey, love! Calm down. He'll be fine. I promise you. You okay?" Yibo cupped her cheeks. She nodded. "He's in his study."
***********************************
There was a knock on his door and then it secured open revealing Yibo with his black beanie, wearing black t-shirt and white pants. Xiao Zhan became furious.
"Why are you here?" He bellowed, suddenly conscious of his state. He was wearing a white button down shirt opened and black undershirt with loose trousers while lying down on his couch.
"Easy! Macho Man! You're not allowed to talk to me like this." Closing the door behind, he settled on the edge of the bed.
"How have you been?" Xiao Zhan remained seated, feigning indifference despite of his erratically beating heart.
Yibo was in his closed space. How can he conceal his vulnerabilities infront of that intensely keen gaze of Yibo. But he had to. He was not anymore the once frail-flimsy bloke.
"Well, I'm good enough to take up the whole world." He rose up while smirking at the other guy in the room.
"And you think you can take up the whole world residing this room with Mi Ya worrying in next room for you?" Yibo took a dig on him.
It stirred what Yibo has desired, "What the fuck do you want?"
"What happened at Simon's?"
"It's none of your fucking business." Xiao Zhan was losing his nerves. It all recalled the misery and abandonment he appeared to thrive so far.
"Then collect your fucking nerves and go tell Mi Ya that you're okay and get that fucker harasser." Yibo was mad as a hornet.
Xiao Zhan freaked at what he heard. "What are you saying?"
"Mi Ya is loosing her shit, go talk to her."
"No, no, the other part."
"I've talked to Kai, he told me that the project manager Jiu had heated conversation with you and then he started harassing you and to find reinforcements he ran out."
"Ahhhhh! Fucker Kai Zhang and his fucking reinforcements!" Xiao Zhan bumped his fist in the wall with full force. Yibo was startled.
"Enough with this madness. Mi Ya can..."
Suddenly Xiao Zhan turned towards Yibo who was not distant, eyes red with anguish. "What do you know about madness, eh?" He jabbed at Yibo's chest, pushing him back. He kept doing it.
"What do you think you are?" They were inches closer when Yibo's face was frowning with deep intent to understand other's pain behind this behaviour while the other had raw madness to tear apart the one infront of him. Their gazes were igniting the whole air around them when Yibo thought to end this fruitless tussle. He tried to move away but Xiao Zhan seized his wrist which Yibo yanked away instantly.
"You'll be laughing at my stupidity? It would be fun for you to watch me like this? Wouldn't it, Wang Yibo?"
"I'm not that low to cast entertainment from misery. And sadly, you have not known me enough to presume my fun parameters." A certain bite has gnawed at Xiao Zhan's heart but it was only a matter of moment.
Yibo could hear a sarcastic laugh, "What are you doing here as I don't know you enough?"
"I was concerned for Mi Ya, she was calling me furiously, dead worried for you." Unbeknownst to Xiao Zhan, Yibo can always take the hurt Xiao Zhan was intended to give him for the sake of comfort Xiao Zhan can get in reward. And just like that, Yibo flounced off the room.
