It's been three day since Wang Yibo didn't go home. He was sleeping in office. He was working on ' Youth ' series. After hearing that someone gonna mess up with the launch, Yibo had become more alert. This was an important project and he never wanted to waste his and his employees" efforts.

He was also busy in taking care of other projects as he didn't think that they wouldn't try anything dirty. He didn't want any loop hole. Wang Yibo was like a beast who will chase his prey until it came in his trap and never leave it until it get destroyed.

On the other side, Zhan was surprised as he didn't get a glimpse of Wang Yibo. When he asked about Yibo , Wang Huan told him that he was staying in office. Zhan waa surprised to see how normal this was for everyone in Wang mansion for not seeing Yibo for days.

Now he was doing painting at their place with Wen Han. He was guiding Wen Han in his work.

" Does your Yibo ge often stay in office ? " Zhan asked Han.

" Mn " Han said.

" Yibo ge rarely come home before wedding. In these last fifteen or twenty days , he was coming home regularly. Even if he came home, he alway came late . We rarely dine with him." Han said.

" Is he always like this ? " Zhan asked.

" No , not all. He has just changed in last few years as I remember."

Zhan only hummed and silence engulfed them.

Zhan didn't ask again and started to guide Han .

Today also Yibo didn't come home. The four members of family were having dinner. In between sometimes Zhan was talking and telling them about different things, sometimes Wang Qing and Wang Huan were talking. Sometimes they also involved Han in their conversation.

" Why is Yibo not coming home ? The company is working well ." Wang Qing said frowning as she really didn't like Yibo staying in company.

" He said that there are some new project on whom he have to work personally." Huan said but he himself didn't know how much that was true. Yibo hide many things from them to not to cause them worry.

" That boy ...... " Wang Qing sighed heavily and shook her head.

Then they had dinner talking about random things.

After having dinner they all resigned to their rooms. Zhan lie down on his bed and closed his eyes. He didn't feel any different as he never saw Yibo sleeping. Yibo sleep after him and woke up before him but still he felt the room was little lonely than before.

Zhan didn't think much about it and shrugged off his feelings and drifted to sleep.

One day later Yibo came back home earlier than usual. Even Zhan and Han hadn't come back from University. It was 4:30 PM when Yibo came. He found that mansion was unusually quiet. He knew that till this time Han and Zhan came but may be today they were late.

His aunty and brother weren't around too.  Servants were busy in their work so no one notice Yibo. He went quietly to his room. He put his brief case aside , removed his coat and shoes, loosened his neck tie and throw himself on the bed. He was exhausted which was clearly visible on his face. It seemed that he didn't sleep for many days. He was glad that there was no one to see him like that. The work he was doing had been completed and he felt tired so he came home early. It's not that he came willingly, it was Xue Yang who kicked him out of his office so he could rest at home.

As soon as he hit the bed , he felt his eyelids heavy and exhaustion took over him. He thought that he will rest for few minutes but didn't expect to fell asleep. After fifteen minutes Zhan and Han came too. They were tired too so they also went to their rooms. Zhan when entered in room startled to see someone sleeping in his room. Then he noticed that the sleeping figure was none other than his husband, Wang Yibo. He found him sleeping in his office clothes. Zhan  could see from his face how worn out was Yibo. It was the first time he saw Yibo sleeping.

" Has he just come ? " Zhan thought

" He looks dead tired." Zhan mumbled.

Zhan without causing much sound took his clothes and went to take a shower.

After taking shower when Zhan came out , he found Yibo in distress. He saw Yibo knitting his brows , his one hand trying to grab something, lying sideways, his forehead was glistening with sweat beads.

Zhan didn't like what he was seeing. He went near to Yibo and sat beside him. He hold his hand and started gently patting it.

" It's just a bad dream." Zhan mumbled in soft voice.

Yibo grabbed Zhan's hand firmly and suddenly woke up with a jolt. He saw Zhan sitting beside him.

" Are you ok ? " Zhan asked and passed him a glass of water.

" Hm... I'm fine." Yibo said taking the glass. He drink the water and placed it on the night stand.

" Thank you." Yibo said.

" You seemed to be having a bad dream ." Zhan said.

" What time it is ? " Yibo asked changing the topic, don't wanna talk about his nightmare.

" It's 5 : 20 ." Zhan said .

" It's just half an hour." Yibo muttered.

Both become silent, Yibo was still holding Zhan's hand.

" You are still in office clothes." Zhan said.

Yibo noticed that he hadn't changed and fell sleep.

" I didn't think I fell asleep." Yibo said glancing at himself.

" I'll change. You should also go downstairs and eat something." Yibo said.

Zhan nodded but didn't move. Yibo was confused as why Zhan was still sitting.

" Why aren't you going ? " Yibo asked.

" You are still holding my hand ." Zhan said rolling his eyes and show Yibo their joined hands ,which only Yibo was holding.

" I'm sorry." Yibo said and get up. He was trying to grab something in his dream but when he felt warm and gentle touch he hold it immediately and didn't notice that he was still grabbing the source of warmth.

Yibo walked to closest to bring clothes then he went to bathroom to get fresh.

Zhan also came downstairs and went in kitchen where Mrs Fu was doing her work.

" Good evening, aunty Fu" Zhan greeted.

" Good evening, Zhan dear. " Mrs Fu said smiling.

" I was about to send snacks in your room but you came." Mrs Fu said.

Mrs Fu served Zhan snacks and he started to eat.

" Don't know young master Yibo is coming home or not ? " Mrs Fu said to herself.

Zhan heard it and realised that Aunty Fu didn't know about Yibo.

" But he has already come." Zhan said.

" He came ? " Mrs Fu exclaimed in surprise.

" He was sleeping when I went in room but he is now awake." Zhan said .

" When ? I didn't notice ." Mrs Fu mumbled, confused but then she shook her head.

" Then I'll send snacks for him too." Mrs Fu said and was about to go when he saw Yibo coming down.

" Good evening, Yibo baba." Mrs Fu said.

" Good evening, aunty Fu." Yibo greeted back.

" Sit here, I'll bring something for you too." Mrs Fu said.

Yibo nodded and sat beside Zhan.

After sometime Mrs Fu brought pancakes for Yibo .

" Where is aunty and Huan ge ? " Yibo asked.

" Miss Wang and Huan baba are in garden." Mrs Fu informed him.

Yibo nodded and start eating. He finished quickly and stood up to leave.

" I'll be in room." Yibo said before leaving.

" So fast " Zhan said.

Mrs Fu laughed and patted his head.

" You don't have to compete with him. Eat slowly." Mrs Fu said.

Yibo went to his room and sat on bed and put the earbuds . He drifted in world of Melodies.

At dinner Wang Huan and Wang Qing asked Yibo to come home regularly and decided to send Yibo and Zhan on a trip.

" What do you mean, ge ?  " Yibo asked when he heard about trip.

" What you don't understand Yibo ? Let me repeat for you." Wang Huan said.

" You and Zhan are going on a three days trip in city B ." Wang Huan said.

" But I can't." Yibo said.

" Why ? " Huan asked.

Yibo didn't answer.

" Let me tell you if your reason is company then it's only for three days." Wang Huan said.

" But...." Yibo tried to say something but cut by his elder brother.

" Yibo you are neglecting Zhan and your marriage, do you know ? " Huan said seriously.

" Yibo you can't behave like this. Zhan is also a part of your life now." Wang Qing said.

Hearing their words Yibo glanced at Zhan who was looking down. He realised that he was really neglecting Zhan but the situation he was in , he can't do anything.

" Ok , we'll go but after the launch which is day after tomorrow." Yibo said as he couldn't do anything. Also he also felt that he wronged Zhan.

Zhan was surprised to hear Wang Huan and Wang Qing but he was more shocked to hear Yibo accepting it. He didn't know what to feel.

Wang Qing and Wang Huan were discussing about Zhan and Yibo as they realised that they weren't progressing at all. They didn't want them to live like roommates or more precisely housemates. So they decided to take matter in their hands.

Zhan was tired so he after dinner left for his room and throw himself on bed. Yibo who saw Zhan, smiled.

" I'm beat." Zhan said and covered himself. Yibo realised that Zhan was exhausted. He also went to bed as today he didn't has work. Now he was waiting for result of last few days hardwork.

This was the first time they were getting in bed together at the same time.

" Tired ? " Yibo asked .

" Hm " Zhan hummed as he was slowly falling in deep sleep.

After ten minutes Zhan drifted to his dreamland whereas Yibo was still awake.

Then like in Jiang Mansion, Zhan slide to Yibo's side and hugged him tightly. Yibo got startled but soon get relax. He smiled to see the sleeping piggy trying to find comfortable position on his chest.

He let Zhan being comfortable on him and when he didn't sense any movement, he wrapped his arms around Zhan and smiled.

He didn't want to give any name whatever he feel for Zhan since the first day but he knew he care about Zhan. He was coming home after the successful launch but Xue Yang remind him of Zhan . So today he came back home. Also at dining table, he could give many excuses to cancel the trip but he felt bad at the thought of neglecting Zhan.   

He caressed his husband's hair and feeling the warmth, Zhan snuggled more.

Then hugging Zhan, Yibo also drifted to sleep.
