To all those who thought that Cheng and Ziyi are a perfect and fluffy couple... what would you do if I ruined your fantasy?

"Eat something Zhehan." Simon spoke, but Zhehan just shook his head, "I don't want to."

Simon sighed and kept the bowl of soup down before looking at Zhehan again, who was sitting on the bed and not looking at Simon, but only staring at nothing.

He was tightly holding Simon's hand that was on the edge of the bed,  Simon couldn't see Zhehan like this, Zhehan was someone so happy and cheerful and always bubbly but now he just became an empty shell.

With no motivation, no desire, just like a corpse.

Simon closed his eyes and sighed as he squeezed Zhehan's hand as well, "Why didn't you go for the job interviews? you could have joined your own previous job if you wanted."

Zhehan blinked his red and swollen eyes that looked dead, "I don't want, I don't feel like working, maybe I am lazy."

Simon looked around the room and saw various photos on the wall they were photos of Zhehan and his family and he was smiling in all of them. He looked so happy.

Then there were his solo photos one when he won a swimming competition and one when he won a painting competition and the other when Zhehan's team won in a basketball tournament.

Simon couldn't bear to look at those photos anymore as if physically hurt him to see the man in those photos and then the one in front of him.

Zhehan saw him looking at the photos and he only thought how disgusting and worthless he had become now.

Compared to the man Simon fell in love with he was just some useless and pathetic person who cheated on Simon and is not being a burden to him.

Holding him back and shamelessly trying to cling on to him.

How proudly Zhehan used to say that he hated and despised cheaters and he would be kept his distance from these kinds of shameless people but look at him now, he was one of those bastards.

So even if hurt him he let go of Simon's hand, "you should leave."

Simon noticed and looked at Zhehan, "I will take care of myself, you and I are no longer related you don't have to take my burden so leave." he said and looked at his photos and smiled bitterly, "The person you fell in love with is dead."

Zhehan said before he went to bed and covered himself with the sheets.

While Simon tried to get up but he couldn't leave Zhehan behind there was no way.

After seeing him like this, Simon knew that Zhehan should not be alone, he was struggling without his family and he was the only one he can depend on.

If Simon also left him and in his absence what if Zhehan did something to himself, he was already ruining himself like this.

Simon suddenly received a message from William that said that he has to pick up May from Xiao mansion.

Simon then looked at Zhehan again, "Zhehan... you know Yibo had an accident recently."

This made Zhehan turn around and look at Simon, who was happy to get a reaction, "Yibo was attacked by four men one of them being his own cousin and he was pretty badly injured because of that incident... would you... like to pay him a visit?"

Zhehan frowned before he asked, "Is he okay?"

Simon nodded, "He was discharged his forearm was stabbed and he got some minor injuries and also swelling in the leg. He charged his cousin with an attempt to murder."

"His real cousin?" Zhehan raised an eyebrow, for someone like him who came from a perfect family it was hard to process that someone's family can harm someone else like that.

Simon nodded, "Yibo's real maternal uncle's son."

Zhehan sat down, "But why?"

Simon sighed, "He had a lot of gambling debt and they wanted to ask for money from Yibo who wouldn't agree so easily so they had decided to kidnap him however Yibo was not that easy to get kidnapped."

Zhehan sighed, "he must be shocked."

Simon nodded, "do you want to meet him?"

Zhehan looked at Simon before he shook his head, he did want to meet Yibo but he don't want to leave his house, "then do you want his number?"

Zhehan didn't say anything and so Simon took a pen and paper and wrote down Yibo's number and kept it on the table beside Zhehan's bed, and smiled at him, "call him okay? and eat something I will come again tomorrow morning."

He said, Zhehan didn't look at him and neither replied, Simon wanted to kiss him but in the end, he couldn't so he walked out with a heavy heart.

Once Simon left Zhehan watched his retreating figure and then looked at all the happy photos of him and his family those photos looked like they were mocking him or laughing at him.

And suddenly Zhehan's eyes turned red.

~~~~

Meanwhile, Simon reached the Xiao mansion and was warmly welcome by Zhan's family.

Once he came in Zhan came down to meet him with a smile but his smile dimmed when he saw Simon, Simon followed him to meet Yibo who looked much better while May chatted a little with Zhan's parents.

"So what is it?" Zhan asked as he sat beside Yibo while Simon sat on a chair and sighed, "it's Zhehan... and he is not well."

Yibo and Zhan frowned and Yibo asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Simon sighed, "He is drinking a lot and he made a mess of his house like you can't take a step inside his house without stepping on something and he is not eating as well.

He didn't join his previous job and tried to get a new one... I am really worried about him."

Zhan sighed he actually felt bad for the poor guy and Yibo said, "maybe you should take him for therapy."

Simon looked at him and Yibo spoke, who spoke, "the amount of shit that he has been through can put anyone into depression... maybe is developing once as well. If not treated then it can get worse."

Simon looked at him and looked down and Zhan asked, "Did you submit the divorce papers to court?"

Simon shook his head, "I couldn't do it."

"Then do you want to be with him?" Zhan asked.

"Well I never wanted a divorce, until I got to know that he hid his mother and sister's death but now after knowing his side of the story I am not sure anymore. I can't see him like this and... I clearly don't want him to go away  from me."

Zhan sighed and looked at Yibo, "well then how about you talk to him and take him to a psychiatrist first?"

Simon nodded before he got up, "by the way I gave him your number Yibo if he calls you then do tell me."

Yibo gave him a thumbs up, "Sure brother."

Simon smirked before he walked away and took May with home.

~~~~~~

Once he reached home William also asked about Zhehan's condition and Simon told William everything William seemed very worried as well.

"Well you should bring him here it would be better if he stays here rather than being alone."

May also agreed she was very sad for Zhehan as well.

Simon nodded. The next morning he went to Zhehan's house again and once again rang the bell and then knocked at the door but Zhehan didn't open so Simon entered the passcode and went in but as soon as he went in he heard a sound of glass shattering and his eyes widened before he ran in.

And once he reached Zhehan's house his eyes widened with horror as he saw blood on the floor and on the walls as well, his heart nearly came out of his chest when he didn't see Zhehan in the room, but he saw all the photos broken and thrashed on the ground.

Simon moved around but then he saw a figure sitting on the ground and curled up in the very corner of the room.

The figure had his head on his elbow that were on his knees, Simon ran to him, hie legs were shaky as he sat in front of Zhehan and gently called out his name but his voice came out as broken and he stuttered when he saw that Zhehan was holding a glass shard tightly in his hand and his hand was bleeding.

Tears slipped from Simon's eyes as he said, "Zhe..Zhehan? baby..."

Zhehan finally looked at Simon and Simon felt like he can finally breathe when Zhehan moved and looked at him, but when Zhehan saw him he just cried, "I am sorry... I didn't mean to... I just missed my family and I... felt so guilty...I am so sorry."

Simon nodded, "Okay...I understand okay... I get it..." he then grabbed Zhehan's hand, "come on let go of this shard, come on... Zhehan, baby leave it."

Simon said and slowly took the shard from Zhehan's hand and threw it aside, and then took out his handkerchief and kept it on Zhehan's hand to stop the bleeding.

And then Simon looked at the other hand that seemed fine and then his legs and Simon saw that Zhehan's sole of the feet was injured as well.

"I am sorry." Zhehan spoke and Simon sighed, "It's okay."

"Why are you here?"

"I told you that I will come in the morning."

"It's morning already?"

Simon nodded, "Let's go home."

"I am home."

"Our home."

"Aren't we divorced?"

Simon quickly shook his head, "No we aren't, I didn't submit the papers in court I tore them away and burned them."

Zhehan looked at him with a confused look, "Why would you do that? don't you hate me?"

"Never. I was just angry at you but after Yibo told me everything my anger vanished Zhehan, I love you, I love you so much that I don't care about anything...."

"But I-"

"I should have called you too, tried to reach out to you too, when my father fell ill I lost all rationality and shit you out, but your mother and sister dies Zhehan and you were all alone... I do not blame you not anymore."

When Zhehan heard again, his eyes became watery tears slipped down his cheeks, "But I hurt you so bad."

"And so did I, I am sorry."

Zhehan sighed, "do you look at my state I-"

Simon grabbed cupped his face and his watery eyes looked into Zhehan's watery eyes, "I.Don't.care. I love Zhehan and I still want you, do you love me as well?"

Zhehan nodded, "  I do."

Simon smiled and kissed his forehead, "Then let's go back home okay?"

Zhehan nodded and Simon gladly smiled and then picked Zhehand bridal style before he walked out of the house and made Zhehan sit in the car before he locked Zhehan's house and drove to his house.

Halfway through the ride, Zhehan fell asleep as he felt tired and Simon often stole glances at him.

Once they reached home Simon quickly got down and then again picked Zhehan bridal style and walked inside his house where May and William were already waiting and they were shocked to see blood on, Simon rushed while the others followed and William called a doctor.
