When Zhan and Yibo arrived at the gate to the politician's house, Yibo had to show his invitation to the birthday party and indicated Zhan as his escort. Only then were they allowed to pass through the gate and drive up to the house, where a man was already waiting to park the car, they took Zhan's service car, for them.

Upon entering the house they were handed a drink, both chose non-alcoholic drinks and then they were led into the garden where many guests were already present. Zhan looked around with a practiced glance and whispered to Yibo, "We have some pretty famous guests here."

"Sure, it's the birthday party of a high politician." Yibo replied.

"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm not talking about celebrities like you. But rather those who became famous in a different way."

"Meaning what?"

"There's a man standing over there. He's a foreigner, American. He's wearing a gray suit. A Rolex watch. A gold ring with a big diamond. And he has a gun."

"You saw that right away?"

"Of course. I learned that in my training."

"And what about him?"

"Well, he's number nine on the list of most wanted criminals in the world."

"What?"

"Mn. Makes me wonder, what's someone like that doing at a party like this?"

"I don't know. But if he's wanted, we could arrest him."

"No, we can't. That's not our mission. Besides, there are only two of us. He wouldn't be here if he hadn't taken precautions. If he were that easy to catch, he wouldn't be on the most wanted list."

"True. But then what are we supposed to do? Watch and let him get away?"

"If he's friends with the politician, an arrest wouldn't do any good until we can prove something against the politician. Because with his power and influence, number 9 would be released the same day. The most we can do is let colleagues know, so they can secretly tail him and he can't disappear again."

"Okay, so where do we go from here?"

"According to plan. We'll mingle with the guests and introduce you to them. I'm assuming most of them already know you, even if not in person. But I'm sure they'll want to make up for that. Who wouldn't want to meet the hottest and most popular idol?"

"You?"

"Hahaha."

"ZhanZhan, do you really think I'm hot?"

"Um, Yibo. I'm just echoing what your fans are saying."

"But you still think I'm a little hot, don't you?"

"Why do you want to know that now?"

"Well... you know why."

"Oh man. Come on. Let's get to know the other guests over some nice conversation. And if the opportunity arises, hopefully we can talk to the politician too."

"Would you do me a favor if I do my thing well today?"

"What favor?"

"Will you dance with me later?"

"Dance with you? With an idol? Do you want me to make a fool of myself?"

"Why?"

"Well, because you should remember how hard I struggled to dance. I also haven't danced in five years."

"Then it's about time again. ZhanZhan, please do me this favor."

"Alright. But that doesn't mean I'll forgive you because of it."

"I know." Yibo replied with a grin.

They mixed with the other guests, and as Zhan had already correctly guessed, many were interested in Yibo. They talked to him, handed him their business cards and of course wanted to know everything about him. A few were even quite well informed about Yibo and already knew that the filming of the series had been postponed.

When they finally saw the hosts of the party, they immediately wanted to talk to them. But four men walked up to them and they left the garden together and went back into the house. Zhan crept up behind them. If someone asked him what he was looking for, he would simply say that he was looking for the bathroom.

While Zhan was in the house trying to find out more, Yibo continued to talk to a few guests who kept asking him questions. And then he saw a person he knew wasn't invited. Agent Xian Chu! He broke away from his conversation partners and walked up to Agent Xian. "What are you doing here? How did you get in here?" He asked her.

She grinned and replied, "Oh I happened to find out that someone I know was also invited here and was happy to bring me along."

"You're endangering the mission! Do you realize that?"

"Me, no, I'm not endangering it. If it is, it's you. Because you're not an agent and you're not even trained for it. You're an idol, what reaches the hearts of girls. But that's all you are."

"I am very much more capable than you think! I could have been an agent, too, because I have talent for it."

"Oh yeah, and why didn't you use that talent and become an agent? Oh yes, it was more important for you to stand on a stage and hear girls scream your name. To see them cry with happiness when they see you. For your career in show business, you were even willing to give up the love of your life."

"What?"

"I bet you'd have been willing to kill anyone just to become famous. After all, you killed Agent Xiao's heart."

"Are you crazy?"

"Yes, yes I am crazy. It drives me crazy that someone as uneducated as you is allowed to participate in such an important mission! It drives me crazy to know that just because you once successfully helped on a mission, you immediately think you're a great agent even without training. Do you know how many years it takes to become a good agent? The things you have to do to get there? No, I'm sure you don't."

Suddenly, Zhan was back. He grabbed Xian Chu's wrist and squeezed it tightly. "Who gives you the right to speak to Yibo like that? Do you think I'm going to let you do that?" He whispered angrily in her ear.

"What? I'm right after all." She insisted.

"No, you aren't. You weren't there on the case then, and you have no idea what was there. You can't judge whether Yibo has talent as an agent or not. And he's certainly not uneducated! And do you know how hard it was for him to achieve his goals?"

"Not as hard as it was for us!"

"True. He had a harder time. He was in a foreign country. Didn't know the language. Had to practice dance, music, and acting 6 days a week for 8 hours a day, plus go to class after practice. He had to study on the side to keep up and to graduate from the academy. He toured the world with his group. He hardly had any free time because he was either on stage, on the road or training. He did not see his family for 5 years. He was often in pain, could only sleep a little and got food irregularly, sometimes he didn't eat for several days because he didn't have the time. But you still claim that we had it harder? And this despite the fact that we had regular times for education, got three meals a day and lay comfortably in our beds every night? And couldn't we visit our families regularly? Think before you open your mouth!"

"Why don't you leave me alone?" Snorted Xian Chu, yanking her wrist free and walking away.

"What did you say to her?" Yibo asked, confused. Although Zhan was whispering, Yibo had understood every word. But he wondered if Zhan would tell him what he said to her.

"Oh nothing much. I just told her to stay away from us and not to endanger the mission."

"Ah I see." Replied Yibo. He was a little disappointed because Zhan didn't admit what he really said to Agent Chu. But on the other hand, he was also touched to hear Zhan defend him. "Did you get anything out ZhanZhan?"

"Yes. The son was really kidnapped. The politician has assigned the four men to search for the kidnappers and his son. But they haven't found any clues yet as to who the kidnappers are and where they took his son."

"Great, so what do we do now?"

"We need to see if there might be someone among the criminal guests who knows more."

"Mhhh, okay. But I'm sure they won't just tell us."

"Unfortunately, no." Said Zhan. Yibo wanted to reply something, but kept silent when he saw a young beautiful foreigner with curly blond hair approaching them.

"You are Wang Yibo the idol right?" She asked with an adorable smile and in Chinese.

"Um yeah right." Said Yibo.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Anna Wong."

"Wong? You don't look Asian."

"I know. My mom is American and married my stepfather, a Chinese man, a year ago."

"Oh I see."

"Mn. Say Yibo, can I maybe get your autograph and a picture with you?"

"Uh yeah sure."

"Thanks. And if you don't mind, I'd like to dance with you."

"Alright." Yibo wasn't comfortable with that. But because of the mission, he shouldn't show any signs of it. He gave Anna Wong the autograph, took a selfie with her, and then joined her on the dance floor. And even though Zhan wouldn't admit it, he was a little jealous. Because to him, it really looked like Yibo was really enjoying dancing with Anna Wong.

What Zhan didn't know is that Yibo is a much better actor than he assumed. Even if Yibo had to kiss someone, he would do it in an acting way that would make everyone think he wanted it to happen that way. Even if that's not the case. Yibo would have told Zhan for sure if he had known that the sight of Yibo and Anna Wong made Zhan jealous.

Well, maybe Yibo had noticed that Zhan was jealous. Because when he glanced at Zhan and saw his facial expression, he suddenly made a special effort to look like he was having a lot of fun with Anna Wong. Not only was he smiling, he was actually laughing. Even though Anna Wong was anything but funny.

After dancing with Anna Wong, Yibo looked around to the place where he had last seen Zhan. But Zhan was no longer there and Yibo wondered if maybe he had overdone it a little too much to make Zhan jealous? Or was there another reason why Zhan was suddenly gone?

Confused, Yibo looked around but couldn't see Zhan anywhere. But when he saw Agent Xian Chu sneaking into the house, he followed her. He followed her up a staircase, where he caught her listening at a door. Yibo got a bad feeling. Who was she eavesdropping on? And where had Zhan gone?

Fearing that Zhan might be in that room and in danger, he immediately wanted to go to Agent Xian. But just as he was about to start moving, someone held him by the wrist. Startled, he turned around very slowly and was relieved when it turned out that this person was Zhan.

Zhan pulled Yibo with him to a room. The curtains were drawn, and only a small night light was on. They both stood at the door and listened. "What?" Yibo asked as quietly as he could.

"Not now." Replied Zhan.

"But..."

"Yibo be quiet."

"What's wrong..." That's as far as Yibo got because Zhan covered his mouth. Yibo yanked Zhan's hand away from his mouth. He put his hands on Zhan's chest and found it interesting that this way he could feel that Zhan must have been trained in the past years. For Zhan's chest felt much more muscular than it did then.

When footsteps could be heard in the hallway behind the door, Zhan wanted to put his hand on Yibo's mouth again. But Yibo immediately pushed his hand away. Yibo pretended to want to say something and Zhan, who wanted to stop him from speaking, reacted with the only thing he knew would stop Yibo from speaking. He pressed his mouth on Yibo's. Just as Yibo had planned.

And as Zhan was about to release his lips from Yibo's again, Yibo put his arms around Zhan's neck and pushed Zhan's head back towards him. He knew Zhan could easily fight him off if he wanted to, but Zhan didn't fight him off, instead he wrapped his arms around Yibo and began to return the kiss. Yibo felt like he was in heaven.

"Why are you still here? I specifically told you to look for my son. After all, that's what I pay you for! And someone find out what my brother-in-law wants here!" They heard the politician say.

"As far as we know, your wife invited him." Replied someone in a low voice.

"Great. I told her to cut off contact with her brother. She's still endangering everything."

"What am I endangering? Our son's life? Or that someone will expose what we do for a living?" Asked the politician's wife, who also appeared to be joining in.

"Both!"

"Both? If we hadn't gotten involved in these deals, nothing would have happened to our son."

"And how could you have continued to live your life in such luxury without money? Who among us came up with the idea of getting involved with organs and human trafficking? It was you! You said we only had to do this for a few months and then we'd be out of debt and have plenty of money again. And what happened? We've been doing this for two years!"

"And whose fault is that? If you didn't always gamble your money away right away, we wouldn't have gotten into financial trouble at all. You should have been a good husband and father. But instead, you gambled away all our money!"

"I wasn't the only one who wasted the money. Don't forget how many plastic surgeries you had. Then constantly the new cars. Always new furniture, even though the old furniture was still perfect."

"But that's not nearly as bad as losing all that money gambling! Now come on out. Your guests are waiting." She said. After that, footsteps were heard again and silence fell.

Finally Zhan released the kiss and Yibo took his hand. "I know you were just playing along now so we wouldn't get caught. But it was still totally nice." Said Yibo and left the room with a bright red face. He was afraid Zhan would really say that he only kissed him because of the mission. He just didn't want to hear that.

However, Zhan wasn't even going to say that it was just because of the mission. Because actually, he had kissed Yibo because he wanted to punish Yibo for making him jealous with Anna Wong. He wanted to remind Yibo in this way who his heart belonged to. After all, he couldn't let Yibo forget that! Yibo is allowed to love only him and nobody else!
