Yibo said what his heart wanted. It's not like he ever was scared of Li Xian, his coach as well as brother. He has been under Li xian's coaching for around 10 years till now. So obviously he became more of his brother than his coach. Yibo always shown his brat side to Li xian other than the practice time. They change from ultimate brat to ultimate professionals when it comes to their field. Li Xian's wife also adores Yibo and Cyan as her own siblings.

"Bo- bo- boyfriend you said? really? I mean how, why?"

"What do you mean how, why ge? Zhan ge can you please give me the glass of water, talking to this old man is so hazardous. " Yibo ignorantly said to which Zhan smiled and handed the glass of water.

"No, that's totally fine... I mean that's so sudden and and..." Li Xian stuttered but couldn't finish the sentence, as his wife suddenly called Yibo from the other side of the phone.

"Eh honey, is that our Yibo... oh Gosh it's been so long since I heard him... let me see his face."

"Right, give the phone to Zi jie... " Yibo said pouting and then looked at Zhan ge. But the look he saw in Zhan's face wasn't expected. Zhan was spacing out and his eyes were widened. Yibo was curious as well but didn't give it much of a thought...

"Yibo how are-" Zi suddenly stopped as her eyes were all set on the figure beside Yibo on the other side of the phone.

"It- It can't be no... Zhan?..."

"..."

"Zhan, it is you right..." shocking everyone, she hastily took the phone from Li Xian to face a certain person. Her eyes were overflowing with tears and she was gasping for air, and sniffing constantly.

"Say something dear

"Say something dear... please say something. Oh goodness, *sniff* oh goodness, I can't believe my eyes, Zhan..." she was so excited that couldn't even complete the sentences.

"..."

On the other hand Zhan was extremely calm, only unknown tears were rolling down his cheeks. Yibo, having no clue, looked at Zhan.

"Zhan, dear Zhan... please say something, don't be like this... I'm sorry but it's been a long time."

"Zhan ge, Zi Jie is... saying... something to you" Yibo said hesitantly, " won't you say something?" But couldn't finish his word.

Crack

"Zhan ge... what have you done, why did you broke the glass like that?... you're freaking bleeding!" Yibo said furiously. Zhan broke the glass in his hand.

"What? What happened Yibo? Is Zhan hurt? What happened? " Zi said anxiously.

"What do you mean Mrs.Li? Why do you care? Why on earth would you care if I'm bleeding or if I'm dead or something... it's not like you care, it's not like you ever cared, where were you for all these years? Did you ever thought how will we be able leave without you? What would have happen to grandpa? The one who used to take care of us after mom and dad passed away... oh you weren't even there when they were gone. I'm extremely sorry, it might be easy for you to forget and pretend like nothing happened but for me, who was left alone in this world, it's quite difficult than it seems." Zhan said in one breath, his hand was bleeding profusely due to the cut but he was not in that state of mind to concentrate on a mere cut while the wound on his heart reopened.
