On The Run

Part 20

Epilogue

Yibo entered Wang Han’s office.

“Yibo…” Wang Han rose from his seat and welcome him in a warm hug.

“Glad you okay.”

“Mmn…”

“Come one, have a seat…” Wang Han took him to the couch. “It was

chaotic, eh…?”

“Very…” Yibo said, grinning.

“But you did it.”

“We did it,” Yibo corrected Wang Han’s line.

“No, it was you.”

“I mean, Xiao Zhan and I,” Yibo replied bluntly, gaining a laugh.

“Yes, yes… You and Xiao Zhan…”

Yibo smiled amusingly.

Wang Han then grabbed the file that was on the table and took a look.

“You’re applying for Defense Department.”

“Yes.”

“And, where should I put you actually?”

“Self-defense and combat training division,” Yibo answered firmly.

“As expected.”

Yibo nodded.

Wang Han let out a breath and put the files down. “I can manage that.”

“Thank you, Han-ge.”

“So, how’s Xiao Zhan?”

“He’s fine. He-laoshi gave him a reality show project at Hunan TV and if this goes well, he would ran a division.”

“Good to hear.”

“Yes. We’re also planning on opening a bakery.”

“A bakery? Ah… congratulations, Yibo! I’ll make sure to visit your bakery and eat them all!”

Yibo smiled a little. Wang Han always treated him like a kid.

“But…is he… having a therapy or something…?” Wang Han sounded hesitated.

“No. Zhan-ge overcame his shock very well. In fact, he’s never been so energetic nowadays…” Yibo replied.

“And that energy boost mostly comes from you?”

Yibo didn’t reply. Instead, he smiled shyly.

“I’ll take that as a yes.”

“And, we’ll be moving to a larger apartment next week. I’ll give you the address when we settle.”

“Oh…another good news...?! That’s really good, Yibo!”

“Another good news.”

“Then we should have a hotpot!”

“Sounds cool. You should take the others too.”

“I will. I will take Qiang Feng, Da-laoshi and Tianhe along. The more the merrier.”

Yibo nodded.

“You’re doing good, Yibo!”

“Yeah.” There was a silence until Yibo said again, “Then I’ll get going, Han-ge. I’m just stopping by to sign some documents and say hi.”

“So soon…?”

“I promised Zhan-ge to take him somewhere…”

“Ah, okay then. I hope you two have a good day.”

“Thank you, Han-ge.”

Yibo bowed deeply before finally stepping out the office. He patted gently his shoulder bag that was slid against his chest. Then his phone buzzed.

“Yes, Zhan-ge…?”

“Are you done there?” came Xiao Zhan’s voice.

“Done. I’m on my way home…” Yibo said while hopping on to his bike.

“Oh… that’s good.”

“Mmn.” Yibo started the engine.

“How long are we going to stay in Shanghai…?”

“However long you wish to…”

Xiao Zhan giggled.

“Zhan-ge, I’m riding.”

“Oh, sorry, sorry! See you soon…”

“Mmn.”

Yibo shoved the phone into the bag and put on his helmet, riding the bike out of the parking lot
