Next day.

Jiang mansion.

"So are the two brother catching up well?

" Weilong inquired.

Shrugging his shoulders, Yihong sighed,

"I have no idea but since Yichan voluntarily kept him there, I am hoping for the best.

"

"Hmm, don't worry, Yichan is a very intelligent and smart boy.

"

"That is what I fear about Weilong, he is indeed very smart and super quick in finding out things he is curious about.

" Without waiting for his reply, Yihong inquired,

"What about Chen? Haven't seen that since I arrived.

"

Keeping the cup on the table, Weilong scoffed,

"That brat never comes home, he shows up only when Ziyi forces him to. He is working on a project with Ning right now so maybe he is busy.

"

"Well, isn't that good? Our kids are bonding and having a great time together, we should be happy,

" Yihong smiled.

"Hmm, we can be happy until everything is running smoothly, I don't even wanna think how Ning is going to react when she learns the truth.

" Pinching the bridge of heis nose, Weilong sighed,

"Things are going to turn very chaotic.

"

"I heard what your brother did, we shouldn't have trusted that bastard.

" Gritting his teeth, Yihong mockingly scoffed,

"He really has the balls to mess with us.

"

Taking a sip of his coffee, Weilong gritted his teeth,

"That bastard is going to pay for whatever he did.

" Helplessly shaking his head, he sighed,

"But I also blame myself, if I hadn't left my daughter with them, all of this would have—

"

Cutting him off, Yihong explained,

"It wasn't your fault, the situation called for it.

"

"Did the situation call for you as well?

" Walking towards his father, Yichan mockingly chuckled,

"Or let's say that you left because the situation called for it and you came back because your friend called you back?

"

Scrunching his brows, Weilong inquired,

"Yichan you—

"

"I let him in,

" Chen smiled before slumping on the couch.

"Geez, this couch is no more comfortable, I think it's time to change it dad.

"

Looking at his son and Yichan simultaneously, Weilong inquired,

"You both know each other?

"

"Pfft of course we do, I mean, our dad's are such close friends and grandpa's too so shouldn't we be friends too?

" Without waiting for his father's reply, Chen added,

"Anyway, Yichan wanted to meet the two of you together and I happen to know that you both are here so I brought him over.

"

Glancing at the watch, Yichan sighed,

"I don't have any more time to waste so I'll straightaway get to the point, I am not here to taunt you or force you to say anything.

" Pausing for a while, he smiled,

"I am here to give you both something. You know, a small reward for being such great parents. It's something that you both have been looking for quite some time, I am sure you will like it.

"

"You kidding me? They are going to freaking love it,

" Chen chuckled.

Taking out his phone, Yichan called someone and instructed,

"Bring him in.

"

After a few seconds, Linhou entered the mansion with his hands hooked around Darwin's neck.

"There you go buddy, I guess this is it but don't forget me after meeting your old buddies, okay? Always remember that I am your savior.

"

Widening his eyes in shock, Weilong muttered,

"Darwin.

"

Taking a step towards his father who was staring at him, Yichan narrowed his eyes. Looking at Weilong, he mockingly scoffed,

"Your friend is just like you, a coward.

" Glaring at Yihong, he snapped,

"Don't try to cover up your cowardness by blaming the situation, that makes you look very pitiful and hopeless.

"

Pausing for a while, he added,

"Stay away from my family, especially Ning and stop playing your dirty tricks on Yitian. Try to be a good father at least for one of your sons.

"

When Yihong lowered his head, Yichan walked out of the mansion.

Chen quickly got up and patted his dad's shoulder,

"You got your friend back, I hope you are very happy, dad. I would have stayed back to entertain you guys but I need to follow my brother-in-law.

" Without waiting for their reply, he ran out of the mansion.

….

Ning and Yichan's place.

Evening.

Inside the kitchen

After giving aunt Lin a day off, Ning was busy preparing dinner for everyone. Since Yichan had an important meeting, he couldn't drop by for lunch so she ordered take outs instead of cooking a meal for herself.

Just then, a guard knocked at the kitchen door.

"Lady boss, there is someone to see the boss.

"

"Who is it?

"

"Roger William,

" he answered.

Wiping her hands in the apron, she instructed,

"Let him in, I'll inform Yichan.

"

After the guard left, she quickly called Yichan and told him about Rogers' arrival.

"Yes babe, he called me a few minutes ago. Just let him in, I'll be there in fifteen,

" Yichan answered.

"Don't rush, take all the time you need and don't worry about me, I'll be fine,

" she assured him before hanging up the call.

...

Living room.

When Roger saw Ning, he quickly got up and hesitantly explained,

"I-I am here to meet Yichan.

"

"I know, he is on the way,

" she answered before sitting on the edge.

"Yeah, I had a talk with him too.

" Keeping quiet for quite some time, he added,

"I'll wait outside.

"

"It's okay Roger, you can wait here.

" Pausing for a while, she inquired,

"Do you want to have something?

" When he shook his head, she added,

"Let me make some strawberry smoothie for you.

"

"Hmm the one with extra strawberry syrup and cream?

" When she nodded her head, he smiled,

"Okay.

"

After some time, Ning came out with two big glasses of strawberry smoothies. She gave one to him and sat down beside him.

"I heard about your sister, I didn't know that—

"

Swirling the straw, he sighed,

"It's alright, you didn't know and I also never told you so—

" Pausing for a while, he added,

"I heard that she approached you twice.

"
