chapter 2-
The Wang Yibo

Shanghai, China

Skull aching as his bones cracked, spine split in half made him finally take his last breath. Constant torture that made all his organs go wear and tear can only ever be imagined in his grimmest nightmares. Could he really stood a chance to survive when a 10mm bullet pierced through his gut as soon as he opened his mouth?

What was it that he bore, to sow it in such a terrifying way?

"Disgusting." was all that the man said as he kicked the dead body in front of him. Swindling around with people was nothing new to him. As he threw the gun across the cold, now covered with blood, tiled floor and walked out of that dark room, an ecstatic satisfaction washed over his chest.

"Clean it up."

Walking through the corridor, his boots made a constant knock against the wooden floor, sending a shiver down everyone's spine around the area. They know their boss was frustrated at that moment which, for sure, was anything but safe. As he made himself known to a room, several monitoring screens lit up across his eyes that were continuously showing activities inside a certain residence, capturing each and every motion taking place in that household.

A bitter chuckle made it's way to his face as he crushed the wine glass in his hand making it go in crumbles. The tiny glass shreds slit through his own hand making it go crimson.

"Is the prey trying to escape
my claws?"

Beijing, China

"Haikuan! Wang Haikuan!"

A loud yet composed voice of Wang Zi barged inside the ears of Wang Haikuan who was currently attending some paperwork in his home office. The lady can't bare it anymore as she burst in her elder son's work place with fury clearly rising up, making it visible on her face.

"Mom?!"

Haikuan was taken aback as he saw his mother at this time of the day. It was past two o'clock in the night and she should be sleeping right now but here she was, looking extremely anxious and pissed.

" Is everything alright? Are you feeling unwell by any means? You are making me worry, mom."

Calm as he was, the boy adored his mother more than anything in the entire world and so He panicked, instantly closing his laptop and walking towards her. He put his hands up against her forehead, checking the body temperature, which thankfully was not high.

"You don't seem sick." he said but still looked worried.

Wang Zi clicked her tongue in annoyance before removing Haikuan's hand from her forehead in hurry.

"I am not sick but I'll surely be soon." Haikuan looked puzzled.
"Did dad not bring your favourite chocolate? Or did he got yellow tulips instead of pink?" he asked in a very serious tone.

How can their dad forget such an important detail!?

"Oh god, No! It's not about the father, It's his stupid son!" Wang Zi whined, almost pouting as Haikuan finally understood what she meant. He chuckled but then hugged her, caressing her head before speaking in a soft, calm tone.

"Is Bobo not home yet?"

Wang Zi didn't reply but subtly nodded in agreement anyways. She was always concerned about her children but didn't like to display it in open as according to her, it'll make her look like a interrupting adult which in turn means, she is old. Haikuan can't help but shake his head at that with a smile to which he got a glare from his mother. He coughed to resist himself from laughing and tried to sound serious.

"That punk! He is becoming more and more reckless as he reaching his peak youth. Don't worry. Let him return, today I'll give him a good piece of mind." Haikuan stated with pure determination that both of them knew was fake. Well, it can't be blamed. The Wangs loved their youngest devil the most. No matter what, they just can't scold him. And so, he was immensely spoilt by the entire family.

Wang Zi took her leave as Haikuan sighed wearily.

"I know why are you doing this, but will it really work, bo? He will never go against his words, Never."

The clock struck half past two as Wang Haikuan summarised everything. He logged off from his device, stretching his back that will sure develop a hunch if he didn't stop doing these night shifts. He left his home office as he pranced around the main hall waiting for his troublemaker little demon.

No matter what, He won't pass out today, not before he sorts it out with him.

Another hour passed in pure silence as his eyelids were dangerously ready to fall, making him shake his head and grab another cup of caffeine.

Not today.

Fifteen minutes later or so, that was almost four o'clock in the morning, Haikuan heard noises of a strong engine gushing around the main entrance. And just as he expected, the house guards got alert ready to welcome their young master. The main doors of the Wang Mansion were opened soon as a guy, almost 6'3 walked inside, dressed in all black from head to toe. He was holding onto a black helmet that had his initials, WYB imprinted on it.

In his periphery, he did notice his brother but instead of making any kind of halt, he kept walking turning a blind eye to Wang Haikuan.

"Wang Yibo...Where do you think you're going?"

Wang Haikuan's voice was sounding frustrated, but he still didn't sound intimidating to this guy named Wang Yibo. He just skipped towards his brother and gave him his helmet before taking the coffee in Haikuan's hands and drinking it up.

"Night"

Was all he said before taking his leave but before that, Haikuan instantly held his hands.

"We need to talk, Yibo. What is this behaviour? I never stop you from anything but I can't let you make Mom anymore worried because of your nonchalance. Mom is very worried about you. She doesn't sleeps on time. Do you have any idea how that can affect her health?! Dad also keeps on checking the main entrance time to time. Why? No, actually I understand your take on this but do you think you not returning home can solve anything? Don't do this. You don't stay home much. Always come late and don't even have your meals with the family. Is this how the Young Wang of the Wang Corporations should be acting? So careless and insolent!?

I understand what you're feeling my brother but you know we can't go against his will..."

This was the first time! First time that Wang Haikuan ever scolded his brother. He didn't even realised when his own eyes got teary. As realisation hit him, he choked on his words. What did he do? Did he just got angry on his bobo? His little brother who he loves the most?!

As if his eyes spoke volumes, Wang Yibo took his helmet and before he left, he said-

"I understand, gege. Night."

The latter watched his brother walking away to the staircase and then towards his room. He felt helpless. Haikuan hates that he can't do anything for his brother. He was just a mute audience who was watching all the drama unfold in front of him. Like a fucking object! He was witnessing his brother's freedom being taken away and all he can do was wait and watch.

"If only- If only I was a little more powerful, I could have fought for your choices."

The Wang Mansion

Morning caved in sooner than expected as it was already eleven. Today, the Wang Mansion was unusual than it's usual poised and restricted fashion. Rather, In contrast to the normal days where one can rarely find a group of four, today the whole mansion was crowded with people.

Precisely workers.

All the essential items that were important got delivered last night. But the Xiaos were still to arrive. More than thirty workers assigned from TheXiaoShop were currently present inside the Wang mansion, sorting stuff, all while waiting for their boss Mr. Sean Xiao Zhan to arrive. As it was strictly commanded to not begin anything until his arrival.

Lady Wang Zi was feeling immensely joyous today. Her biggest desire as a mother was about to fulfill as her younger son will soon tie knot. But as the responsible lady of the manner, she can't help but monitor everything taking place. Seated on her exclusive leather chair, she watched the workers as they unloaded all the boxes one by one and placed them in the Main hall of the Wang Mansion.

She was pleased to begin with as the Xiaos were very precise and organised with the things ordered and although it may not look like from up, it looked like the Xiaos were as serious as the Wangs about the whole thing. Not one mistake caught her eyes till now but still she kept on inspecting everything as it proceeds.

Wang Haikuan didn't go to the office today, so did Wang Lun.

However, The Young Wang- Wang Yibo and Master Wang Jiang were currently unavailable. Their absence was, however, not troublesome to the other Wangs as the sun rose from west today.

Two hours earlier, at around nine in the morning, the Wangs were seated for their breakfast, waiting for the Wang Heir, Wang Yibo at the table. Although, if briefing the previous few weeks, it was hopeless even for the Lady Wang to expect Yibo will join them. The Lady was more than sure that once again, her son won't attend his meals and has most probably left the mansion already but surprisingly, the Young Master was in front of them stepping down from the stairs while rubbing his wet hairs with a towel.

"Y- Yibo..?!"

Wang Zi can't help but feel utter shock and questionably surprised with her younger son's presence after almost a month of his constant negligence towards the Wang family. She subconsciously stood up from her chair as all the eyes present their fell on the Heir of Wang Corporations.

"Morning, Mom." Wang Yibo greeted in a monotonous tone as he back hugged his mother, kissing her head and then taking his seat next to his elder brother who was as shocked as their mother. His prominent eye bags didn't go unnoticed by Yibo either but he choose not to express his worry at all.

"Morning Dad, Morning Ge."

As he greeted them without much change in his expressions, his mother happily poured him a glass of fresh apple juice. But before Yibo can lay out his breakfast, someone's voice made him stop.

"I am also present here."

It was a low voice with broken syllables that barely made it too the Young Wang's ears and all he concluded was that, the tone was grumpy.

"Oh you're? I can't help but respectfully ignore you."

And that was when the other three knew what was starting.

Wang Yibo was ready to slice his steak but Wang Jiang felt offended with his willingly portraited impundance.

"You- You brat! How can you disrespect me? I am your Grandfather! Where are you manners?"

Wang Yibo just smirked at that before he turned his face towards the old man and willingly stated in a haughty ascent.

"They are right here old man, You just can't see them. They say, Older the bulb, dimer it's light. And you?! You're like a living ancestor. Your light will probably vanish soon."

The elder scoffed at that bratty tone as he made his voice a bit loud. "You wish huh! And how dare you imply that I am old?! This rat!"

"Correction, I am not implying that. I am saying that you're old."

"Piss off Wang Yibo!"

"But isn't that your job?"

"Either you both stop fighting and eat your food or you'll see my wrath!"

Everyone became allegedly quiet soon after as they can't bear to see the lady of the mansion get all dangerous and started eating as silently as possible. Wang Jiang wanted to complain but after getting a glare from his daughter-in-law he didn't dare to and just pouted like a kid who lost candies.

After the meal was over, thankfully without any ruckus, Wang Yibo got ready to leave but hesitantly, before he can, Wang Zi asked the question that was lingering on her mind from the beginning.

"Bub, Are you really okay with it?"

Wang Yibo halted and faced his mother followed by everyone else who had their eyes fixed on him. They were all waiting for the Young Wang's response to his sudden change of mind.

"Do I have any other option?"

Wang Zi unwillingly shook her head in a 'no'. No matter what, nothing could be done now as it is not only officially announced in the public but all the invitations are also distributed.

"Then why are you asking me such questions? I want to be the CEO and if for that, I need to marry someone I don't even know, I will do it."

Hearing his response, the Wangs felt dejected. What was it that the Young Wang was paying for? That too, in cost of his freedom? But whatever it was, the Wangs can't do anything anymore other than completing the preparations for a wedding as grand to match the Young Wang's calibre. Yibo has finally agreed to the condition without any further mess which was a good sign to proceed with the arrangements.

All of them were slightly relieved as they shared a gaze, except for the grandpa and his dear grandson who were glaring the heck out of each other.

Old Master Wang Jiang knew that his audacious and impertinent grandson will no way agree to his terms. Wang Yibo will never do what he wants as he lives by his own laws. So, all he can do was use that move and reluctantly announced it in public one such day.

"...As you all already know that my youngest grandson, Wang Yibo, will be taking over as the Chief Executing Officer of this chivalrous Wang Empire soon enough. Under his powerful grace, I have nothing to worry about in respect to my estate. And, to celebrate it, I have decided to wed him before he overtakes such an important responsibility. My Grandson, Your Young Wang, Wang Yibo will be getting married with Zhou Lusi, daughter of Lu Jianmin, a very important executive of ours, on the 25th of the next month. Kindly, give them your blessings."

That was what Wang Jiang announced to the world on the media conference that was held after he received the 'Most Influential Business Tycoon' award on 20th last month.

No one in the family was aware about the sudden announcement as nothing was pre-planned until it was broadcasted live on the television.

It was like the whole Wang mansion got thunderstruck.

Wang Zi can't believe her father-in-law's actions and was beyond shocked. Wang Lun was feeling helpless as he knew what consequences may follow and Haikuan was very much disappointment.

But the worst was Wang Yibo.

Yibo was fuming with anger and felt betrayed. Pure rage boiled in him as he almost burnt half of the Wang mansion by his rage.

"WHY?! WHY DID YOU DO THAT GRANDPA?! JUST WHY?"

Wang Yibo furiously asked Wang Jiang when he returned home in the evening.

The air around the entire mansion was tense and every servant could feel it. Although, Yibo and Wang Jiang were always nagging and bickered with each other for ages, they rarely got serious enough to shout. Moreover, Yibo may sound like a complete brat, but he did respect his grandfather a lot.

Today, however, was definitely an exception.

"I had to." Wang Jiang replied.

"YOU HAD TO? WHAT THE FUCK! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TAKE MY LIFE CHOICES?!"

"Wang Yibo language! Don't act like a fucking kid and calm down. It's nothing big."

"CALM DOWN?! AFTER ALL THE MESS YOU CREATED, YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN?! You went all ahead to take my life choices without any discussion and you want me to FUCKING CALM DOWN?!" Yibo's anger was getting to his head. His forehead had his nerves strained which scared Wang Zi that they may burst open.

"Yibo, calm down baby. You will hurt yourself!"

"Calm down? You too mom?! You will take his side too? You know that he is snatching my freedom away with his stupid announcement and still?! You all knew this right! Why Mom?! Why no one told me anything!?"

Wang Zi hung her head in disappointment. She wanted to tell Yibo the truth but what difference would it make?Nothing.

They can't go against the elders, that's the rule.

"Wang Yibo, I don't want to argue with you. Read this and decide yourself." Wang Jiang said as he threw a file towards Yibo who immediately caught it.

Yibo was not in a mood to read some stupid stuff but still decided to co-operate. He read the file line by line and after few minutes, he burst more in rage. He threw a glass flower vase against the table cutting his own hand and was got furious now.

Wang Lun and Zi tried to run towards him to stop the other but Wang Jiang just signed them not to.

"Let him be."

Wang Zi was shocked with her father-in-law's behaviour. Moreover, what fuelled Yibo's anger? She instantly picked up the file and read it and no doubt Yibo was double pissed than before.

The file summarised as-

"To become the next CEO of the Wang Corporations, The Wang Heir should be married before March 2022. And Even after marriage, the CEO should atleast stay married for an year before all the shares are officially under his name. If during that year, the couple got divorced, twenty percent of the entire Wang shares will be transferred to the Heir's spouse and forty percent will go in trust for wellfare. The Heir will furthermore lose his position and his authority will be given to another family member or anyone assigned by the Chairman."

"Father!"

Wang Zi shouted. She knew how much Wang Yibo wanted to become the CEO. He studied business and even did masters by living away from his family just for his one and only goal. He had several ideas that he wanted to implement in expanding their business and he was proving himself for years by attending several business summits but this was what he got?

Marriage?

Especially when the whole Wang mansion knows how much Yibo hates it. He never wanted a life partner, soulmate, lover etc. He hates the idea of being bounded into baseless relations that will only become his weakness. Why should he marry someone when that person will only increase his responsibilities and be nothing more than a burden?

Also, it was not like he was getting too old to get married yet.

Nevertheless, many arguments took place for few consecutive days. No one understood Wang Jiang's intentions, not like the old man told them anything either.

When Yibo thought he can't win against his grandfather, he decided to detach himself from the family out of feeling betrayed. He stopped joining them for meals, left home early in the morning and returned very late at the night. Sometimes, he didn't even return home at all but used to stay at his penthouse all the way in Shanghai. But today was something different. Not only Yibo joined them in breakfast but also agreed for the marriage?

However, Wang Jiang knows the best. No matter what he can't believe Yibo. Afterall, he had the same genes as Wang Jiang himself and was three times more stubborn than him.

"Yibo, we need to talk." hearing his grandfather Jiang, yibo scoffed internally. He nodded and they both went out with the younger helping Master Wang Jiang with his wheelchair.

"Will they be okay mom?" Haikuan asked with worry.

"I can only wish.."

Almost an hour passed since then and both the stubborn Wangs were out. They didn't return yet but it wasn't a matter of concern anymore. Wang Zi called out for a girl that she spotted holding onto the schedule for the day.

Since Yibo didn't agree for the marriage, till today, nothing regarding his outfit was finalized yet.

"You! Yes, kindly come here. What's your name young lady?"

"Ji Jingyi ma'am." the girl responded with professionalism as she bowed to Mrs. Wang in respect. She seemed to be young and was certainly beautiful in Wang Zi's opinion.

"That's a beautiful name dear
Can you tell me when will the Xiaos arrive? Don't mind me, I am just a big fan!" Wang Zi told with a glint of excitement. Afterall, the Xiaos were not just wedding planners but the most famous clothing company of the capital at that moment. All their best works, which were almost all their works, were uploaded on the official
@/TheXiaoshop social media account and was widely praised by popular influencers and people from high class societies.

Wang Zi was definitely impressed when she found out that her father-in-law has decided to handle the project of Yibo's wedding to the Xiaos.

"Soon. Our boss informed that he needs to recheck few decorations before bringing them inside the Wang mansion. He will be here very soon." Jingyi replied with a soft smile.

However, instead of being relieved, Wang Zi looked puzzled.

Wasn't Xiaoshop handled by Zhang Jingtong? Then how come this girl was addressing the owner as a he?

"Wait he? Wasn't Mrs. Zhang Jingtong the owner?!"

Jingyi smiled again before replying. "Yes ma'am, Master was the owner till last month. But she recently gave her position to her very talented elder son, Senior Xiao Zhan. Don't worry ma'am. It may sound like he is an amateur but he is personally trained by Master herself and is pretty much skilled."

Wang Zi nodded. Although she was still very doubtful.

An amateur? For Wang Yibo's wedding? It was not a good call. Especially with the fact that Yibo has low tolerance to mistakes and...no tolerance to this marriage.

Wang Lun patted her back, assuring her to not worry and that, everything will be fine. Ten minutes passed. All the cartons were unboxed, being monitored by the Wang family.

Suddenly, few car horns were heard at a distance. Wang Zi was confused but soon understood as she saw Jingyi smile towards the main door.

The Xiaos had arrived.

All the three Wangs present in the main hall were looking at that direction in anticipation. Wang Zi was worried but all her doubts withered away as she saw a boy with pink tulips entering the main residence. Her eyes glinted with joy with his gestures and the fact that, the Xiaos even remembered such small details, was absolutely impressive.

Wang Lun and Haikuan were also pleased as they saw the lady's excitement. Atleast she is satisfied for now.

"Good Morning ma'am. " the boy gave those pink tulips to Wang Zi and bowed a correct 90⁰ before standing next to Jingyi.

Wang Zi thought that maybe he was the owner but seeing how he didn't introduce himself or how the workers didn't bowed to him, maybe he wasn't.

"Yubin, Where is he?" Jingyi whisper asked Yubin who had just arrived inside the mansion. Yubin scratched his head awkwardly. Jingyi knew something went wrong. She asked Yubin to elaborate and not just stand there like a fool to which Yubin pouted but then replied.

"He wasn't satisfied with my packaging so he decided to do it again."

Jingyi face palmed at that and was not at all surprised. Xiao Zhan's antics were well known but seriously? Now? And why to pack things so perfectly when he needs to unpack them inside the mansion?

Jingyi sighed and walked towards the Wangs. She bowed and apologised saying, "Sorry for the delay sir...ma'am, Mr. Xiao will arrive soon. Just give us five more minutes." Wang Zi was getting impatient now. She was ready to stand up from her place until a guy barged in the main door.

"Yubin! You idiot!"

Zhou Cheng said with a growl. He didn't care about his surroundings and instantly held yubin from his ears. "Who said you can leave first, Huh?! And how dare you leave that Zhan with all those boxes? How will he pick everything altogether?!" ZhouCheng fumed at Yubin's carelessness who tried to sign him to look around.

"What?!" Zhou Cheng asked, irritated. That's when it hit him.

He wasn't in his shop or any other place. He was literally standing inside the Wang Mansion right now!

Zhoucheng's expressions changed from anger, to shock and then to regret. He slowly turned around and instantly apologised. "I am sorry for my attitude sir, ma'am...I was being reckless and aggressive in your residence. Kindly forgive my behaviour" His instant apology was quickly expected by the Wangs.

Afterall, they had their own aggressive bombshell Wang Yibo, So it was understandable.

"It's okay Mr. Xiao. We can understand." Wang Haikuan spoke.

"Sorry Mr. Wang but I am not the Xiao you mistook me for. My name is Zhou Cheng. I am in charge of supervising." His words were clear and ZhouCheng was very straightforward with his tone. This guy who was apologising to them was well built, young, tall and, for the first impression, seemed very grumpy. As of now, he looks a little difficult but atleast respectful to his elders.

But still his confidence and maturity for sure impressed the Wangs especially a certain someone.

"Looks like I misunderstood your identity. My apologies Mr.Cheng."

Haikuan said with a sweet smile which made Wang Zi look at him with suspicions but she didn't say anything.

Between all their conversations, one boy quietly entered the main hall, holding 10 boxes, all piled up one over another. His upper half was hidden behind the entire load but with his shivering legs, anyone can say those boxes were quiet heavy.

"Boss!"

Jingyi was the first one to notice. She recognised her boss by his clothes and instantly ran towards him. But since Xiao Zhan was much taller than her, she can't reach the top boxes. Yubin was the second one to notice. He immediately ran towards him and took the top four boxes in his hands.

"Sorry boss..sorry boss..so sorry boss" Yubin chanted like a prayer.

"Oh my god! Zhan!" Zhou cheng was the last one to notice. He sprint towards his brother- boss and instantly took all other boxes from his hand.

Finally Xiao Zhan's face was visible to the Wangs who were dazed the moment they laid their eyes on him. A caramel canvas with red blemishes was all they can picture when they saw Sean Xiao Zhan who was sweating profusely that made his nose, cheeks and ears turn reddish in shade.

All the workers who were panicking still bowed to him with their greetings.

"Itchy."

Xiao Zhan kept on mumbling like a whisper, making sure that only Zhou Cheng hears him. The latter confusingly checked the cartons and found that the last few were coated with dust and smelled of paraffin due to it's contents. No doubt that Xiao Zhan was getting so uncomfortable.

Zhou Cheng along with Yubin kept the cartons on the floor to which Xiao Zhan whined with "Carefully! Slowly..slowly" receiving a glare from them.

Zhou Cheng then pulled out a packet of face wipes from Xiao Zhan's bag and cleaned his face softly. The Wangs were confused with how close the workers were with their boss but again, Xiao Zhan was almost the same age with all of them.

Although their closeness did affected a certain someone.

"Why did you do it alone? I was sending Yubin.." Zhoucheng Cheng asked a little too loudly.

"You could have also helped me with those boxes A-cheng, they weren't much for asking Yubin's assistance..." Xiao Zhan mumbled.

"Don't call me that! And why should I? I am the supervisor and you... You're the boss for fuck sake Zhan! Be a little considerate of your position.. You're too lenient with this assistant of yours.." Zhou Cheng ended by glaring Yubin who pouted at Xiao Zhan.

"Boss! Cheng ge is scolding me again!" "Yes I am! Because you're a lazy ass idiot and your boss is too easy with you.."

"A-cheng let him be, Yubin calm down." Xiao Zhan said tiredly. It was then he noticed three people looking at them with amusement.

"Oh I..I am sorry for the delay..It was just..I don't mean to.. Mrs. Wang, Mr. Wang..I don't-" Xiao Zhan got nervous as he never met with these people before and his social awkwardness wasn't helping at all. He immediately bowed but then he remembered his condition.

He was sweating hard and was probably stinking!

"Shit! I mean sorry, I am looking too disgusting right now. It's just- It was..I" Before Zhou Cheng can scold Xiao Zhan's for his self-disrespect, Wang Zi interrupted him.

"Woah Woah young man...You? Disgusting? I am disturbed that you think such a thing about yourself. We were all amused when we saw you. Are you by any chance a model or something?"
Wang Zi playfully asked it with chuckle. Xiao Zhan was indeed very handsome.

Especially with his specs, he looked more cute. Also his ruddy cheeks were acting as a natural blush, adding to his ethereal beauty.

Xiao Zhan didn't quite get Wang Zi's comment but still responded.
"I am not a model Mrs. Wang, But I am 100% sure that you definitely are. " Wang Zi got flustered but Zhou Cheng and all other Xiao shop workers were stunned.

Did their boss just flirt back?

"Ayaa...Don't make me blush young man. I am not that beautiful. Or maybe I am?" Wang Zi teased. Xiao Zhan was once again confused. Wasn't Wang Zi a former model before she married with Wang Lun? What's so flattering about it, Xiao Zhan can't understand.

Zhan wanted to ask but then he remembered something. He instantly searched it from one of the cartons and offered it to Wang Zi.

"This, Mrs.Wang, Mom- I mean Master sent it for you."

Saying that Zhan showed her a box of Wang Zi's favourite chocolates. She was overjoyed and totally whipped now. A young man didn't just compliment her but also bought her favourite chocolate!

Maybe Tulips were also planned by him?! Who knows..

Wang Zi turned towards her husband and said, "Learn something now, will ya?"

Haikuan laughed while Wang lun sulked at her comment. He never forgets to bring those chocolates, well if you ignore those thirty times he did in last six months.

"Mr.Xiao, Don't steal my Wife!" he said while putting his arms in front of Wang Zi as a shield. He delivered it like a warning but instantly laughed on seeing Xiao Zhan turning pale.

"I am just joking Mr.Xiao..."

"But I am not!" Wang Zi said as she tucked her arms in Xiao Zhan's like a couple. "Don't you dare forget it again or...You need to fight this cute rival here."

"Mom you're scaring Mr. Xiao" Haikuan said with a chuckle.

"Huh! You all are no fun. "Wang Zi removed her hands from Xiao Zhan's arm and whispered next to his ears, loud enough for everyone to hear.

"If you need a woman to shower with gifts or to keep you company, You can always find me Mr.Xiao..." Xiao Zhan coughed furiously. To be honest, he didn't understand a single pun from the start and kept on getting nervous now and then.

Wang Zi was ready to tease him more until a voice stopped her.

"Stop bothering him, Let Zhan breathe."

It was Master Wang Jiang with Li bo wen who entered the main hall. Xiao Zhan was finally relieved when he finally saw a familiar face.

"Senior Wang.." he greeted the elder and then pulled out a small pouch from his bag.

"Father asked me to give this to you as his form of greetings."

Wang Jiang signed Li Bo wen who nodded before receiving the small pouch and checking it before giving it to his boss. Wang Jiang checked the contents of the pouch and was pleased.

"Tell doc that I said thanks."
Wang Jiang said addressing Xiao Kaicheng as Doc.

"Father, Where is Yibo?" Wang Zi asked as she didn't find Yibo anywhere behind Wang Jiang.

"Work." was all he replied before Li bo wen took his wheelchair to the private lift. Haikuan sensed the room getting tensed so he spoke up. "Mr. Xiao you can start with your work now. We are happy to have you here."

"I am glad to be here too Mr. Wang."

»»»------------------------›

Another Punch and finally the punching bag burst open. But instead of the normal mush, a body painted with blood fell out of it. The face was already looking gross with all the blood spattering and visible bruises ranging from red to dark purple.

But Wang Yibo wasn't satisfied yet. He grabbed the man lying lifeless on the floor and slammed him on the table, breaking it.He then grab his arms and twisted them as the man screamed for help.

"Let me go..I-i am sorry.. Don't kill me..I was at fault but...that wasn't m-me I swear.."

"You are not thinking that I'll buy it right? Cause if you're; let me tell you bastard, I will always be a step ahead of you. How dare you try to kill my men! How dare you touch my men! You've grown some balls huh?!

Dylan! Dylan!"

Dylan Wang, the most notorious and dangerous person under The Young Wang appeared from the dark to the place where his boss was mercilessly beating the shit out of the culprit for an hour now. He bowed in respect to his boss who gestured him to take over and left the man barely hanging on his life. Dylan got a hold onto a metal rod before slamming it against that man's knees.

He broke his knees and then went for his arms.

One by one, he broke all his limbs and then finally slammed the rod against his head. Wang Yibo was sitting on a black leather chair witnessing everything with a cigarette in his mouth, helf between his gloved fingers smeared with blood.

He signed Dylan to stop who immediately obeyed.

"You injured my men, in return I will take your life as a compensation. Now, say goodbye to this world." Wang Yibo held a gun against that man's head and the gun made a click sound.

"You're mistaken! Trust me, I am not the culprit. Yibo! We have been rivals for years, I admit that but you know I wouldn't dare to touch anyone working for the Wangs! Don't do this yibo.. Believe me goddamnit!"

Yibo laughed with a dry, humourless chuckle.

"Goodbye Baby."

And he shot all 6 bullets from his gun in the other's head. He then threw the gun and removed his gloves, wore his coat and left the room with Dylan Wang behind him.

"Ask..."

Wang Yibo said without looking back to which Dylan Wang chuckled.

"Ignore my nagging boss but, You know that he was telling the truth right?"

"Was he?" Yibo smirked.

"Dylan, Find the real culprit behind it. It was just a trailer, Trust me the day I found out the guilty...

I will make his life a living hell.."
