"Zhan! " Yuchen exclaimed as he opened the door for Zhan and Yibo.

"Yuchen! How are you? " Zhan asked hugging his brother-in-law.

"Not bad. " Yuchen said in a low voice.
"Come in first. " Yuchen said as he helped Yibo carry Zhan's bags.

"Where is Jiyang ge? " Zhan asked scanning the house with his eyes.

"He's in his room upstairs. " Yuchen said.

Zhan nodded without saying anything else.

"So, how did it go, Zhan? " Yuchen asked.

"As planned. " Zhan said.

"Zhan, I think you're tired. Why don't you rest for some time? " Yibo asked.

"But, what about our next plan? " Zhan asked.

"We can do that once Haoxuan returns. " With that said, Yibo dragged Zhan towards his bedroom.

Zhan jumped on the bed, as he lay flat, staring at the blank ceiling.

"Zhan... How many times should I tell you not to climb on to the bed with your shoes on. " Yibo sighed removing Zhan's shoes.

"Sorry. " Zhan said.

"Don't be. " Yibo said as he laid next to Zhan, stretching out his hand so that Zhan can use it as a pillow.

Zhan quickly turned around and rested his head on Yibo's chest, as Yibo pulled him closer. They both embraced each other for quite sometime.

"I missed this warmth, Yibo. " Zhan said.
"I used to be really very scared and terrified at night and the thought of not being able to get back to your embrace used to eat me alive, Yibo. " Zhan said as he nuzzled against Yibo's neck.

"That's never happening, Zhan. I'll always stay by your side, no matter what. I'll even bargain with God and fight with death, just to stay by your side. " Yibo said as he placed an affectionate kiss on Zhan's forehead.

"But, Yibo... This all happened because of me. If I hadn't entered your life... All this wouldn't have happened... Both our families would have been alive and happy. " Zhan said in a low voice.

"Stop thinking like that, Zhan. It was me, who fell in love with you first. So, I would have persuaded you even if you had rejected. And Sara... She committed suicide just because she didn't get my love... And I don't think that's any of our fault, Zhan. Love can never be forced. " Yibo said looking at his boyfriend's beautiful face.

"But... They all died because of this love of ours, Yibo. They all sacrificed themselves for our love. And... Now we are taking away lives of those who killed our family, a life for a life... Sometimes, when I think about it... I think it's really unfair, Yibo... " Zhan said.

"Everything is fair in love and war, Zhan. This is both love and war. Our love for each other and our families, and a war to avenge our loved ones deaths. So, I don't think it's unfair. " Yibo said.

"What's white and what's black, Yibo? " Zhan asked in a serious tone.

"Aren't they both colors? " Yibo questioned back which made Zhan laugh.

"Yibo ah Yibo... I never thought you were this stupid. " Zhan said chuckling.

"I missed it. " Yibo said smiling.

"Missed what? " Zhan asked.

"This smile of yours. I missed it soo much. " Yibo said and Zhan looked at his face, without speaking anything.
"Your smile was the vitamin of your family, Zhan. Lu jie always used to tell me how all her worries used to vanish into thin air when she sees you smiling. " Yibo said looking deep into Zhan' eyes.
"And so are mine. So, please keep smiling, Zhan. Your smile keeps me alive. " Yibo said as he pecked Zhan' lips.

"Yibo, I love you. " Zhan said as he kissed back.

"I love you soo much, Zhan. " Yibo said as he initiated a smooth, passionate kiss, which slowly turned into a rough, desperate one.
They both soon drifted to sleep in each other's embrace.

........................................................................

Haoxuan resigned his job and flew to The States to join his remaining family members.

He soon arrived at Yuchen's mansion.

"Where's Zhan and Yibo? " Haoxuan asked Yuchen.

"They're sleep I guess. " Jiyang answered in Yuchen's stead.

"You guys did great. " Yuchen said.

"So did you. " Haoxuan and Jiyang said in unison.

"So, what's our next plan? " Haoxuan asked.

"Let's discuss about it as soon as they wake up. They both are tired, so let them rest for a while. " Yuchen said and the other two agreed.

........................................................................

Zhan and Yibo woke up in the evening and came down stairs as they heard the three guys chit-chating.

"Haoxuan! When did you come? " Yibo walked towards Haoxuan.

"Brother! I missed you. " Haoxuan said hugging Yibo tight. Yibo softly caressed his cousin' back as he knew how it feels to meet the only family member that's left, after being separated for quite sometime.

"I missed you too, little devil. " Yibo said and Haoxuan chuckled.

"What's our next plan, Yibo? " Haoxuan asked.

Yibo looked at Yuchen as they both nodded at each other.

"Follow me. " Yuchen said as he lead them to a room.

Zhan, Jiyang and Haoxuan were shocked when they saw that room.
It was filled with Zhu Zanjin's photos, taken on every day basis.

"What's this? " Zhan asked as he examined the photos.

"These are Zanjin's everyday activities. I have planted a spy who tails him day and night. He takes photos of his activities and sends it to me every night. " Yibo said.

"Wow, Yibo. I'm impressed. " Zhan said giving Yibo a thumbs up.

"There's more. " Yuchen said.

"Now, let's get to work. " Yibo said as he lead them to the center of the room, where a small table was placed. They all stood around the table.

"We don't want ZanJin to die that easily. So, I have come up with a plan. " Yibo said.

"And what's it? " Haoxuan asked.

Yibo placed a small device which was blinking, on the table.

"What's this, Yibo? " Zhan asked as he examined the device.

"We'll be inserting this in Zanjin's chest. It works as a GPS and we can also listen to every single word uttered by ZanJin using this. " Yuchen said.

"Not just that. He can also be electrified using this. " Yibo said.

"That's great. But how are we going to do that? " Zhan asked.

"Everything is already planned. " Yuchen said.

"We have planted a spy in Zanjin's house, who's right now working as a cook. I'll tell him to add some medications to Zanjin's drink, which will cause him severe chest ache. " Yibo said.

"So, he'll soon be rushed to a hospital where the doctor planted by us declares that it's a minor heart attack and tells his people that an angioplasty has to be done. But, instead of angioplasty, this chip will be placed in his chest, close to his heart. " Yuchen completed.

"From where did you get this idea? " Haoxuan asked with widened eyes.

"Yibo suggested it and I thought it was good. " Yuchen said.

"Wow, Yibo. I never knew you had such a criminal brain. " Zhan said.

"My brain is sexy, Zhan. " Yibo blurted.

"Oh really? " Zhan asked as he walked towards Yibo.

"Yes! Want to have a look at it? " Yibo smirked.

"Why not? " Zhan winked.

"Boys, we were having a serious discussion. " Yuchen said interrupting their conversation.

"Let's finish this first, then I'll show you how sexy my brain is. " Yibo said.

"Yes, we'll have to finish this story first, let's get our revenge. Let him suffer fearing death everyday, every second. He has to beg us to kill him. Why so much hatred? Simple. It's because this is A Hate Story. "
