After the amazing breakfast, Yibo visited Zhuo Cheng at the police station. "I want to help" Yibo said.

Zhuo Cheng immediately frowned and shook his head "No, this is not for kids" Yibo slammed the table "I am not a kid!"

Zhuo Cheng sighed "Yibo, your brother was doing his best to get you out of the family, out of this mess. He would not want you to take risks or interfere in this"

"My brother gave his life for this and I will use my life to help him continue what he was doing. To bring my parents down" Yibo gritted his teeth.

"How stubborn, your brother told me you are starting University. Just go study well" Zhuo Cheng said and turned to leave.

Yibo slammed the table again. Zhuo Cheng might be stubborn but he is even more stubborn. He got up and headed to where Zhuo Cheng's office was.

Yibo entered with a bang and saw a boy jump up. "G-Ge! I'm sorry, I'll do my job better!" The boy organized then papers and turned around. "Y-Yibo?"

"Xiao Zhan?" Yibo raised a brow. Why is he everywhere? "Ah, Yibo, are you looking for Zhuo Cheng?"

"Xiao Zhan! Why aren't you doing your work?!" Zhuo Cheng shouted, making Xiao Zhan flinch. "You have a guest!" Xiao Zhan shouted and stuck his tongue out before turning around, away from Zhuo Cheng.

"Mr Wang Yibo, if you came to ask to join, you're not invited here. Please leave." Zhuo Cheng said and entered his office.

Yibo watched as he used his knuckle to hit Xiao Zhan's head and scolded him before going to his desk. Xiao Zhan peeped at Yibo but Zhuo Cheng shouted at him.

Yibo left. He isn't a kid! He knows his parents did it. He wants to help and prove how heartless his parents are.

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhan glanced at Zhuo Cheng while organizing the papers. "What?" Zhuo Cheng frustratedly grumbled.

Xiao Zhan hurried behind Zhuo Cheng and messaged his shoulders "Ge, why is Yibo here?"

"How do you know him?" Zhuo Cheng frowned and Xiao Zhan hesitated "M-Mr Wen rented the house out and the new tenant is Yibo..."

"Then where are you staying now?!" Zhuo Cheng frowned and looked at Xiao Zhan. "Yibo is kind! He lets me stay there in exchange of me doing the cooking and housework!"

"Move out" Zhuo Cheng strictly said as he turned back to the computer. "No! Ge, I was the one who suggested cooking and cleaning in exchange for staying!"

"Not that" Zhuo Cheng sighed "His family is complicated. Very complicated. I don't want anything to happen to you"

"Oh yeah... His parents killed his brother..." Xiao Zhan mumbled and Zhuo Cheng's head snapped towards him "What? How did you know?"

"He told me this morning! Ge, just let him help..." Xiao Zhan tugged Zhuo Cheng's arm and blinked his puppy eyes.

"Sure" Zhuo Cheng said and Xiao Zhan cheered excitedly, but Zhuo Cheng continued "Move out of there first"

"Ge..." Xiao Zhan pouted "You know I don't have anywhere else to stay... I am saving my money now..."

Zhuo Cheng rolled his eyes "How many times have I told you that you can stay in our house? Besides, Jie misses you"

Xiao Zhan pouted "Ge, you know your mother don't like me... I don't want to ask for money or use my savings for a house..."

Zhuo Cheng glanced at Xiao Zhan who quickly pat his back "Ge! Yibo knows his family better than you! Let him help if he wants. I know you don't have much lead anyway..."

Xiao Zhan whispered the last sentence, making Zhuo Cheng angry. Zhuo Cheng stood up and went to the room beside his, where he usually spent half of his time.

"Kuan Ge..." Zhuo Cheng said as he moved his hand across Hai Kuan's desk. "Should I let Yibo join?"

Xiao Zhan hurried the work he had then left for his next part-time job, a job he loves. Entering the animal cafe, he was greeted by cute cats and dogs.

However, on the way there, he bumped onto someone on a skateboard. Xiao Zhan fell on the floor and looked up to see Yibo staring at him. "You again?"

"Y-Yibo? Why are you here?" Xiao Zhan asked and Yibo frowned. Is he going with a coincident approach this time?

Xiao Zhan got up and frowned "Look at your face. It's full of frowns" Xiao Zhan sighed and pulled Yibo by the hand.

Yibo was surprised. No one dared to touch him without his permission. Yibo then realised he was entering a pet cafe.

"Zhan Zhan! You're almost late!" A shorter man shouted from inside. He then came out "Who is this?"

"My tenant owner? I'm not sure either. Zi Fan, where is Nut?" Xiao Zhan asked while pushing Yibo to a table.

"I'll make the best coffee you'll ever have" Xiao Zhan grinned and ran to the counter. His hands moved swiftly and in no time, a cup of coffee was ready.

Xiao Zhan served it to Yibo with anticipation, looking at him excitedly. That made Yibo reach his hand out to try the drink.

The next moment, Xiao Zhan's face was wet. Yibo had spat the drink out. Did Xiao Zhan serve him sugar? How did his coffee have no bitter taste and only sweet taste?

"... Yibo! Is it so nice that your taste buds can't believe it and you spit it out?!" Xiao Zhan exclaimed while wiping his face.

"More like awful" Yibo commented, the super sweet coffee still leaving an aftertaste on his taste buds.

"Zhan Zhan! What have you done! I told you not to make drinks!" ZiFan exclaimed as he handed a cup of water to Yibo.

Xiao Zhan pouted "It's you two who have bad tastes! My drink is the best!" Yibo shook his head. How is Xiao Zhan so good at cooking but so bad at making coffee?

Xiao Zhan grabbed the cup of coffee from Yibo and drank it. "It tastes fine!" He huffed and drank finish the coffee.

Yibo frowned at the amount of sugar Xiao Zhan just drank. Sweet coffee must have contained cups of sugar.
