Yibo walked out to the parking lot and leaned against his car as he heaved a long sigh. He never expected the press conference to turn out this way. He thought it would be a simple one where Zhan would clarify a certain things, through his lies of course. But, he never expected that they would be bombarded with these sorts of questions related to their past.

Given a chance, Yibo would have beat the shit out of that reporter. He clenched his fists and smashed a punch on his car door out of frustration.

"Sir, what's wrong? " Guo Cheng ran over to Yibo when he heard the loud bang. He knew Yibo was beyond annoyed so he stayed at a safe distance.

"Guo Cheng, I want you to do something. " Yibo said looking at Guo Cheng with his icy glare.

Guo Cheng gulped hard before nodding.

"Do you remember that reporter from earlier? " Yibo asked and Guo Cheng 'Mm'ed.

"Dig out information about him. Anything and everything. " Yibo said.

"You committed a grave sin by poking your nose in the matters that you shouldn't even have thought about. " Yibo glared at a distance, a dangerous aura building around him.

"Get it done ASAP. " Saying so Yibo got into the car and drove off. His eyes were on the road, but his mind was elsewhere.

He was very angry when he read the article that morning, but his anger subsided as he thought of getting the bunny walk into his own trap. But, he never expected things to turn out that way.

Zhan's sad face somehow made him feel very uncomfortable. The events which happened earlier boiled his blood. He never thought that their past would be brought into question. If he knew it would have come to this, he would have never let Zhan arrange the press conference at the first place.

Mind still wandering around the events that occured, Yibo parked his car in the garage. He was surprised to see his brother's car still there and that's when he realised that Haikuan was still home. Feeling exhausted and frustrated, he made his way towards the main door.

He rang the door bell and Haikuan opened the door for him. He moved aside to let Yibo walk in. After Yibo entered, he closed the door and followed him.

"Yibo... "

"Whatever it is, I don't want to answer now. " Yibo said.

"Now or later, you have to answer them anyways. " Haikuan's voice sounded a bit serious.

Yibo turned around to face his brother.

"Tell me. " Haikuan said.

"What? " Yibo raised his brow.

"Mr. Wang Yibo, what are you trying to do? " Haikuan asked.

"Mr. Wang Haikuan, it's none of your business. " Yibo said in a cold tone.

"It is when the thing at stake in my family's name and reputation. " Haikuan glared at his brother.

Yibo stayed silent and just looked at his brother as he was just speaking the truth.

"You aren't just bringing him down! You're dragging yourself down too! "
Haikuan said.

"I'm not! I'm just doing this to seek revenge! " Yibo said.

"Revenge? Are you sure Yibo? "

"Yes! "

"Then why did you look pained when he was sad? " Haikuan asked.

Yibo was a bit taken aback by his brother's question.

"I wasn't----- "

"Keep your lies to yourself! " Haikuan stormed.
