Xian Bo held a blueberry muffin in their hand, tearing a piece off as they fed it to Yao Wen, who sat on their lap. Yao Wen took the muffin piece, happily chewing it as he smiled at Xian Bo, “Thank you.”
“Anything for my boy.” Xian Bo replied before feeding Yao Wen another piece.
Yao Zhihao felt his eye twitch as he watched them. He wonders which is worse: watching them act like this or when he accidentally walked in on them having sex? Wait, this was not a contest; walking in them having sex was worse.
“Can you two stop right now? Plus, I asked Shao Yuhan to come over to meet WenWen, and I rather not have you two scaring him off.” Yao Zhihao mentioned.
“Ah, sorry, brother. ” Yao Wen apologized, slightly blushing. He was used to Xian Bo feeding him all the time. Xian Bo, on the other hand, did not care. “If you have a problem with it, the door is right there.”
“Xian Bo.” Yao Wen scolded, moving off Xian Bo’s lap as he stretched his legs. Xian Bo quickly grabbed his waist, pulling him close, “Where are you going? I will be cordial.”
Yao Wen grabbed the hand on his waist, bringing it towards his lips as he left a kiss, “I am getting a drink, but you better behave, Xian Bo.” Yao Wen walked off towards the kitchen.
“If only the word ‘behave’ was in your vocabulary.” Yao Zhihao commented.
Xian Bo picked up a pillow, throwing it at Yao Zhihao, “Shut up. And don’t think I am not mad at you about seeing Shao Yuhan. I told you to wait; we just started with your therapy.”
“I know, but it still worked out fine. And it is not like I am going to stop getting help; I will still come to you because I want to do better for Shao Yuhan.”
Sighing, Xian Bo crossed their legs while leaning their head on their hand, “As long as you know not to quit getting help.”
Yao Wen came back into the room with a cup of juice in his hand. At the same time, a knock sounded at the door, causing Yao Zhihao to stand up quickly. He made his way to the door, opening it.

He craved Shao Yuhan’s presence so much.
“Sorry.” Yao Zhihao scratched his cheek. Plus, seeing Shao Yuhan laugh warmed his heart. He had seen the man laugh more than he did since the years—in total—they had been together.
“It is nothing,” Shao Yuhan’s smile did not drop, “I think it is cute.”
Damn, Yao Zhihao is falling in love all over again. It reminded him of when they first met. His first year back outside and amongst people were weird.
Yao Zhihao spent his first year of high school talking to the animals and insects in the schoolyard. He made sure people were not around to see it because he would rather not deal with bullying again.
But one day, Shao Yuhan saw him explaining to a bee that the classroom is not healthy for it and the outside is better. He heard someone laughing, causing his hackles to rise. But instead of teasing or cruel words spilling out, Shao Yuhan said, “How cute. I hope the bee listens,” before walking off.
And that day is what had Yao Zhihao stuck on Shao Yuhan.
“So, are you going to let me in or stare at me all day?” Shao Yuhan commented, breaking Yao Zhihao from his thoughts.
Yao Zhihao cleared his throat, “Sorry, please come in.”
Once Shao Yuhan walked inside, Yao Zhihao closed the door behind him. They entered the living room as Yao Wen was back to sitting in Xian Bo’s lap. But this time, Xian Bo was not feeding him.
Seeing Shao Yuhan, Yao Wen stood back up, sticking his hand out as he stopped in front of Shao Yuhan. “You must be Shao Yuhan. My brother loves talking about you.” Yao Wen greeted him.
“He doesn’t know how to say a sentence without putting ‘Shao Yuhan’ in it.” Xian Bo added.
Ignoring the blush trying to appear, Yao Zhihao stuck his middle finger at Xian Bo, who only laughed in response. Shao Yuhan shook Ye Wen’s hand, not noticing the exchange happening behind him.
“I had a feeling he would mention me a lot.” Shao Yuhan replied, not minding their comments. Knowing how Yao Zhihao is—or was—he would be the type to talk about him all the time.
“So, you are well versed in my brother’s personality. I swear he does not mean harm.” Yao Wen mentioned as they dropped each other’s hands.
“Now, I know. Yao Zhihao and I are taking things slow so that there could be no repeat of before.”
“That is good. Yao Zhihao needs someone that will stick by him, no matter what.”
Yao Zhihao and Xian Bo stared at each other as Yao Wen and Shao Yuhan continued talking. They seemed to be in their own world at this point. Xian Bo shrugged in response as Yao Zhihao nodded. He took a seat in his original spot.
“So, I do have funny stories of Yao Zhihao if you want to hear them.” Yao Wen continued.
“Oh, yes. Tell me all the stories, and I will tell you mine.” Shao Yuhan agreed.
“Deal.”
Shao Yuhan and Yao Wen moved towards the other couch, sitting down as they started talking about Yao Zhihao.
Yao Zhihao wondered if he had made a mistake with bringing Shao Yuhan and Yao Wen together. He groaned, already seeing and hearing them using everything they learned against him.
He felt his phone vibrate, pulling it out as he saw that Xian Bo had sent him a message.
Annoying: People learned that putting their date and their sibling together is not a smart move. Who doesn’t love embarrassing stories?
Yao Zhihao: Shut up.
Annoying: I am just saying.
Yao Zhihao: I will block you.
Annoying: You cannot block your therapist.
His right eye twitched. Why did Yao Zhihao come to Xian Bo again for help? When he heard a laugh that lit his world each time, Yao Zhihao remembered that this was the reason. He glanced over at Shao Yuhan, softly smiling as Shao Yuhan laughed with WenWen.
Even after everything Yao Zhihao has done, he wonders how he got so lucky to have Shao Yuhan (and even WenWen at this point) still in his life.
Because you’re willing to get help and change for them… unfortunately not everyone has the courage to do that 😭 you deserve Shao Yuhan and Yao Wen don’t worry
Haha supervised visit – that’s a healthy start.
