When Zhan brought him to his room, Yibo was still shaking all over from the shock, he was terribly cold, his lip and eye hurt, but by the time he was lying in his bed and Zhan sat with him for a while, he was feeling better. Yibo was glad and grateful that Zhan came to see him after he called him. He doesn't know why, but all he could think of was, at least he wants to hear Zhan's voice!

Maybe because he feels safe and secure with him. Maybe also because he has this mysterious and sometimes dangerous aura that makes Yibo sure that Zhan is not just a simple businessman, but at the same time that's exactly why he feels so safe in Zhan's arms. In the end, however, Yibo doesn't care, because Zhan came to him when he needed him and he is grateful for that.

Youn, who was also shocked by Emily's outburst, had quickly regained his composure, however, and so it didn't escape his notice how close Yibo and the businessman actually already are. He wondered why the two of them didn't notice it themselves and still claim that it's just about having fun with each other.

Maybe it's true and they really just want to have fun. But of one thing Youn was absolutely sure, it's not just Yibo who has fallen for the businessman. Zhan himself is also completely addicted to Yibo. Which Youn could clearly see when he came to their home and held Yibo protectively in his arms.

Although Youn didn't let it show, he had definitely caught a few scraps of words of what Zhan said to Emily. And these words sounded very threatening and made it very clear that the handsome businessman was not someone to be messed with. Not if you care about your own life.

But just like Yibo, Youn feels at the same time that Zhan is not a threat to him. He feels that Zhan wouldn't hurt him and Yibo. Instead, he even seems to protect them both. Because he also heard a phone conversation from Zhan, where Zhan said he wants Youn and Yibo to be guarded and protected 24/7, and he also said, "And I want you to keep an eye on that crazy Emily Qin. Even if it means you have to lie in her bed and accompany her when she poops, you won't let her out of your sight for a second! I want to know where she is, who she's with, and what she's doing at all times!"

However, at that moment when Youn heard this, he was not afraid, but was actually relieved. Because now he knew that Emily certainly couldn't hurt his best friend anymore. After all, she wouldn't even make it near Yibo. A reassuring thought for Youn, because he does not want his best friend to experience something like that again.

No sooner had Yibo fallen asleep than Zhan was on his way again. He would have liked to stay with him a little longer. But he also needed sleep, because just like Yibo, his night was very short.

Once home, Zhan sent his housekeeper Lana home. Lana, who is now 60 years old, took care that the other employees in the house always did everything to Zhan's satisfaction and rarely left the house before evening, unlike the other employees, guessed that Zhan was not in a good mood.

She had known Zhan since she was a little boy, when she was paid by Zhan's father to look after Zhan's well-being around the clock. So she knew exactly what was going on in Zhan's mind and that he was boiling with rage inside. She assumed it had something to do with the call from the young man Zhan had been seeing on and off for a while now, and with whom he had spent a night for the second time.

Before Lana went home, she went to see Zhan again. She was probably, apart from this young man, the only one he would tolerate near him right now. Placing her wrinkled hands on Zhan's cheeks, she kissed his forehead and said softly, "You'll rule this. No matter what it's about, I'm sure you'll be fine."

"Mn. For sure I will." Replied Zhan. He took his cell phone and showed Lana some pictures he took of Yibo's injuries and explained to her how it happened. Lana felt how much this upset Zhan and how angry it made him.

"I suppose you like the young man and she is obviously a very vindictive young woman who is not functioning quite right in the head. Maybe you should make sure she can't get too close to the young man anymore."

"I will Lana. Unfortunately, I can't just make her disappear. Yibo has reported her to the police, and when she gets her head straight, I'm sure they'll want to question her."

"You know what your father always said. There's a solution for everything."

"Oh please Lana."

"Not everything about him was bad Zhan."

"I know. But there wasn't much good about him either."

"You know why he turned out the way he did."

"Sure. After years of being abused as a secret agent, a hitman, by a secret government agency, they suddenly didn't need him anymore, and they wanted to disarm him. But he didn't accept it and formed his own secret organization and hunted down all those agents of this secret government agency. I know the story."

"I know it had been very tough for you guys."

"Sure it's tough. Your own father being the boss of a killer organization and raising us, his own children to be killers. We've learned a lot from him. Especially how to make people disappear, or protect things that belong to us."

"Your dad never wanted you to be killers. He wanted you to be able to protect yourselves."

"Lana, what he did went way beyond that. He didn't just teach us to protect ourselves or what was ours. He was training us to be hitmen. We worked as hitmen!"

"I know. And you in particular have made it far."

"I never wanted to be a Hitman."

"And yet you're the best. You were even able to start your own business and took over your father's organization and made it further than your father ever could have. You don't even have to kill yourself anymore."

"Lana, do you know what it's like to grow up like we did? When you learn nothing but the many different ways to kill? And how hard it is to get out of it? Anyway. And as for my business. Yes I run a billion dollar company that I founded myself. We specialize in importing and exporting very exclusive goods. That is my job, I am proud of it. The organization that my father left me as an inheritance, I run in secret. It is my responsibility. Not something I do voluntarily. But if I don't, then soon there will be chaos in the underground again."

"I know Zhan."

"Well, at least I have some advantages through the organization as well. Especially when it comes to making people like that Emily Qin disappear when the chance arises."

"Your father wouldn't have left you his organization if he didn't know you could manage to run it. But now back to the young man. What is your relationship?"

"Right now, we're just two men having fun with each other."

"And do you think it could become more?"

"No. I don't want to drag him into all this. He already thinks I work for a triad. I don't want him to be put in danger by my work. As long as he's nothing more than my playboy, nothing will happen to him."

"He seems to have good instincts. You may not be working for a Triad. But he's not entirely wrong. But why do you call him a playboy?"

"Because he is one."

"Can you explain that in more detail?"

"Mn. I was once in this escort agency looking for an escort for a business dinner. Then the boss lady put a catalog on my desk and said I could look in there. I flipped through the pages and saw that he also had a profile there. Instead of his name it said "Playboy 22, years. He gives you the feeling of being the only one. And with his dancing talent, he is especially well suited for clubs" and that he is only bookable by women. I found it funny that there was written only Playboy and no name. That's why I remembered him. Two years later I asked Zoey to get me an escort and told her to look at the private ones. And who did she find and book? The Playboy. And somehow the name fits him too. He knows exactly how to wrap someone around his finger. He likes to play and make you want more and more of him."

"I understand. But could you really just give him up again?"

"I hope so."

"You hope?"

"Well, he's already very special. I've never met anyone I've been so attracted to."

"What does he know about you?"

"Nothing. Just that I'm a businessman. And I'd like to keep it that way. As I said, I don't want to risk him getting involved anywhere."

"I don't think anyone will drag him into anything. No one would dare. And if something more does develop between you, you shouldn't give up on him. You need to learn to trust again and allow your feelings."

"Lana, I just want to have my fun and enjoy his company. Besides, he doesn't want anything else either."

"You're not a kid anymore. At some point you should stop just wanting your fun and think about your future too."

"Oh Lana, we've been through all this before. And where did it get me? No, just let me have my fun. And now you should go home. I have some phone calls to make and then I want to go to sleep."

"Alright Zhan. I'll see you tomorrow then."

"Mn. But don't forget, starting at noon tomorrow, you can all go."

"Okay." Said Lana. She hugged Zhan, kissed his head and left.

Zhan smiled. He trusts the old lady a lot. After all, she raised him and has always been by his side. She is probably the only one who knows almost all of his secrets, who knows almost everything about him and can see through him better than anyone else. And that's why she knows exactly that Yibo is not just a playboy for Zhan.

He likes Yibo and his playful cheekiness. And he likes how Yibo always manages to get what he wants from him. Or how greedy Yibo is for having sex with him, even though he always insisted he doesn't sleep with men and isn't gay or bi, but then goes weak and moans when Zhan just touches or kisses him.

Zhan never showed as much interest for anyone else in the past years as he did for Yibo. He also never voluntarily paid another escort more. But Yibo was worth it to him. And he even wants to give Yibo a carefree future. Starting with the professional dance training he so desires. And he wants to find the debt collectors of Yibo's parents and pay them off, so that Yibo's family finally gets rid of their debts and Yibo doesn't have to pay their debts anymore. He wouldn't do something like that for anyone else, only for Yibo.

But all this also scares Zhan. Because he feels how much Yibo is growing into his heart. And because of that, his fear of dragging Yibo into something dangerous grows as well. But he is not ready to give up Yibo yet. He can't give him up yet. He doesn't want to. He wants to enjoy Yibo's company for a while longer, enjoy him, give him whatever Yibo wants and make him happy. He wants to see him laugh.

And he wants to see and feel even further how Yibo becomes like wax in his hands under his touch and completely loses himself in lust and passion while having sex with him. Never before had Zhan met someone like Yibo, who is so crazy about having sex with him and awoke in him even an unknown desire.
