Is He Alright?: Chapter 17
"Hello? Shijie? Good Morning."
"Good Morning ZhanZhan. When are you coming home?"
"Shijie, I am planning to stay for 2 more days Shijie. Since I am not going to University these days, I can take care of my work."
"Zhan, do you want me to come over there?"
"It's okay Shijie. Bowen is here."
"I know he can take care of you. Don't make trouble to Bowen."
"I know Shijie."
"Take care ZhanZhan. Bye."
"Bye."
"Talking to Jiejie early morning?" Li Bowen said as he came out of the bathroom after having a shower.
"Bowen, I am going to stay here for 2 days," Zhan said looking at Bowen, still lying on the couch. "Is it okay for you?"
"Zhan!?" Bowen arched his brow. "Why are you so formal today? It's not that first time you are staying here."
"I just confirmed." Zhan winked. "Even if you say no, I would still stay here."
"I know right?" Bowen rolled his eyes. "You are shameless AF."
"By the way, do you have any business meeting in these two days?" Zhan looking at Bowen, getting out of the couch.
"No," Bowen said drying his hair. "Do you want to go out?"
"No Bowen." Zhan yawned. "I am going to stay these days completely in your home. I don't want to go out. And this injury is really causing trouble. I cannot move my shoulder easily. I think it needs rest."
"Zhan, brush your teeth and take shower first. I need to attend your injury." Bowen said putting on his t-shirt.
"Mn." With a nod, Xiao Zhan disappeared into the bathroom. After about 15 minutes, he came out wiping his wet hair with a white towel. He was already wearing his t-shirt and sweat pants. Wiping his hair, he looked at the find to find Li Bowen waiting for him with first aid box.
"Ah." Bowen got up and walked towards Zhan. "Finally you came out. I thought you are going to stay tonight in the bathroom."
"Bowen!" Zhan looked at him sharply as a kid throwing tantrums over a toy. "My injury is getting worse."
"I know love." Bowen made Zhan sit on the bed. "Let me take care of your wound okay?"
Bowen applied medicine to it and took care of the wound. Zhan didn't have a good sleep last night. Under Li Bowen's soft feather touches, Zhan found his comfort and drifted into sleep.
After applying medicine, Li Bowen found other being quite which made him feel bothered. When he looked at Zhan, he understood that Zhan was too tired that he fell asleep. So after applying medicine, he laid Zhan gently on the bed and covered him with sheet and left the room.

"Hello, Yibo." Jiyang smiled as he put his bad on the desk and sat beside Yibo. "You came early today. What's up? Is everything alright?"
"Yeah," Yibo replied. "Yesterday I asked you Zhan's phone number. Why did you send me the numbers of three of them?"
"Zhan!?" Jiyang arched his brow. "From when did he become Zhan to you? Wasn't he the 'ugliest villain' you have ever seen?"
"Stop mocking me." Yibo rolled his eyes. "Well, did Xiao Zhan thinks he is the only one who knows how to play? He doesn't know who Wang Yibo is." A smirk appeared on his face. "I will make him taste his own medicine."
"Really?" Jiyang chuckled. "I thought you are falling for him."
"Me? Falling for him!?" Yibo raised his brow. "Don't joke around."
"Well, try then." Jiyang grinned.
"What about you?" Yibo said taking a book out of his bag. "Are you and Hao Xuan in good terms?"
"Well..." Jiyang bit his lower lip. "Not that much. He is frequently flirting with me. What a flirt!" Jiyang sighed. "I know how to deal with him."
"Oh, I see," Yibo smirked.
"Hey!" Jiyang narrowed his eyes. "What's with that smirk?"
"Nothing." Yibo grinned. "Did Xiao Zhan come to University today?"
"I haven't seen him," Jiyang said. "I have seen Hao Xuan and Meng Ziyi but not Xiao Zhan."
"Is he sick?" Yibo wondered.
"I don't know." Jiyang shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe he is spending his time with CEO Li."
"CEO Li." Yibo rolled his eyes. "Don't mention his name in front of me. I don't like him."
"Why!?" Jiyang asked innocently. "He is really handsome. Xiao Zhan really looks good with Li Bowen."
"Jiyang, please." Yibo shook his head. "Please do spare me and don't mention his name. Please have mercy on your friend."
Soon the class started. After the classes were over, Jiyang and Yibo went to the canteen.
"What do you want to eat?" Jiyang asked.
"Just plain water," Yibo said sitting on a chair. "I don't feel like eating."
"Hey, guys!" A voice spoke out and both Jiyang and Yibo turned back.
"Hao Xuan? Meng Ziyi?" Jiyang blurted out.
"Are you guys here for a drink?" Miss Wildfire asked taking her seat beside Hao Xuan.
"Where is the other person?" Jiyang asked.
"You mean Zhan?" Xuan asked. "He is at Li Bowen's house. He won't be coming to University for two days."
"It looks like he is enjoying a lot with his boyfriend." Yibo rolled his eyes.
"Wang Yibo." Ziyi chuckled. "He is not enjoying. He said his injury became worse than before."
"What!?" Yibo blurted out. "Is he alright?" Yibo asked worriedly.
"Yes. He is." Ziyi replied. "We asked him to do to hospital but he said that Li Bowen has good knowledge about medicine so he won't go out for two days."
Yibo didn't say a thing. He remained quiet for the rest of the break while Jiyang, Xuan, and Ziyi chatted cheerfully. After classes Yibo returned home. He asked the maid to bring food to his room. He after taking a quick shower, he sat on his couch. He phoned his phone and looked at the screen, especially staring at a picture.
'Xiao Zhan, are you okay? Does the injury really became worse than before?' Yibo mumbled. 'It's all my fault. I shouldn't be so reckless. Why did I try to block when he tried to put the ball in the basket. It's all my fault!'
"Young Master, your food." The maid's voice pulled Yibo out of his thoughts.
"Thank you." Yibo politely said and the maid left the room.
While eating he was continuously thinking about Xiao Zhan. 'Should I phone him? Should I ask him if he is alright? Would it be a good idea? What if he thinks I am stalking him?'
The entire evening Yibo tried to focus on his work but his mind ended up diverting to Xiao Zhan.
The next day he went to university. He remained silent throughout the say. He barely spoke a word. He even didn't go to canteen during breaks. Two days went by. Still, there was no sign of Xiao Zhan attending the University.
On the third day, Wang Yibo reached the university a bit late. He was putting his bike when he saw a black Mercedes stopped. Yibo narrowed his eyes to figure out who was the owner of the car. Suddenly a familiar figure stepped out of the car followed by another familiar figure.
"Xiao Zhan and Li Bowen!?" Blurted out.
He saw Bowen saying something to Zhan to which the later laughed. Yibo felt a pang in his heart watching those two laughing heartily. But what Yibo saw next formed a deep frown on his face.
Zhan appeared thinner and weaker than before. There were dark circles under his big almond-shaped eyes which clearly showed he didn't have a good sleep for the past few days. His face became paler than before and his smile wasn't as energetic as before.
Zhan waved his hand bading Bowen with goodbye and proceeded towards the university. Some girls ran to him, circling around him and bombarded him with various questions. Yibo noticed that Zhan felt uncomfortable around those girls and it looked like Zhan needed some fresh hair. Sensing that Zhan needed help, Yibo rushed to him. Taking Zhan out of the throng of girls, Yibo took Zhan to a safe place free from the crowd and made him sit on the bench beneath a tree.
"Thank you." Zhan smiled feebly looking at Yibo.
"Zhan." Yibo's hand subconsciously cupped the other's face. "What happened you to? Why do you look so pale?"
"Are you worried about me?" With these words, Zhan blacked out.
