Chapter 1


The crazy author is here with another Yizhan ff, 😀 hope you will enjoy it too, and remember it's just my imagination nothing more.


The way he walks is truly captivating, exuding a regal demeanor. He is tall, a broad chest with well-defined muscles, his hair is golden brown color with hints of brown. His physique is impressive, neither too lean nor too stout, but rather a testament to a healthy lifestyle and good living.


His appearance screams affluence, dressed in expensive black Chanel suits, his hair impeccably styled and gleaming. He walks at a moderate pace, flanked by five individuals who halt beside a solitary elevator.


One of them hurries to press the button, and just as the doors open, a middle-aged woman rushes over, calling out, "Wait, Mr. Wang!"


Indeed, this twenty-six-year-old young man is none other than Wang Yibo.


"He turned around, his gaze fixed on the caller, the woman standing mere inches away, panting. 'Mr. Wang, you didn't sign the remaining papers this morning, and you have another meeting in an hour...' The glare he gave her made her swallow the rest of her explanation.


His cold, icy face and piercing stare intimidated many, and he rarely laughed, smiled, or showed any warmth, especially with strangers. She retreated in fear, bowing her head. 'Ms. Lingxi, anything that requires my attention can wait until Monday,' he said.


She nodded silently and returned to where she came from.


As the elevator opened, they entered.


Once he was in the car, he relaxed in the back seat, loosening his tie before releasing a hidden breath. The car started moving slowly, followed by the others, which fell in line on the road behind it."


"After a thirty-minute drive, he arrived at the grand Wang Mansion.


The imposing structure had two floors above the ground floor, with at least ten rooms and five living rooms. The mansion also had separate quarters for workers and security personnel.


As he stepped out of the car, two muscular men with intimidating faces followed him, one carrying a briefcase and a suit.


"Dad, I'm home!" he called out, but there was no response. He suspected his father might not be in the mansion and headed straight to the second floor, opting for the stairs over the elevator. The second floor was entirely his domain, with a master bedroom, two rooms on either side, a spacious living room, a study room, a kitchen, and a gym. The master bedroom also had a balcony with a swimming pool.


The first floor was reserved for guests and relatives, with six rooms, while the underground floor had two rooms - one for his father and an empty one. The basement level also featured a large living room with a ten-seat dining table, a kitchen, a gym, a study room, and other amenities.


After freshening up in simple clothes, he lay down on the sofa, closed his eyes, and took a nap."


"It was Friday, and Wang Yibo was looking forward to a relaxing weekend at home, doing absolutely nothing.


However, fate had other plans for him.


As dinner time approached, he sat down with his father, enjoying their meal and engaging in small talk about work. "Dad, where did you go today?" he asked, curiosity getting the better of him. "I didn't see you at the company, and when I came home, you weren't here either." Mr. Wang chuckled, "Oh, just visiting old friends...which reminds me, I have something important to share with you."


Yibo's eyes narrowed, his instincts telling him that he wouldn't like what was coming. His heart began to race with anticipation."


"Wang Yibo, I have a marriage proposal for you," his father announced, his expression serious. Wang Yibo's immediate response was a firm "No," without even considering the details.


Marriage was far from his mind.


But his father's next words caught his attention. "I want to make Xiao Zhan my son-in-law, Yibo. I've always had a soft spot for that young man."


Yibo's eyes widened in disbelief. "Xiao Zhan, a man?" he asked, incredulous. "Why would I marry a man?" He couldn't fathom his father's suggestion.


Mr. Wang shrugged, "I assumed you were interested in men, since you've never been committed to a relationship with a woman. I didn't mean to imply you're gay, but..." Wang Yibo interrupted, his words laced with hurt, "That doesn't make me gay, and I won't marry anyone, let alone a man, just to satisfy your wishes."


His father's response was calm and calculated. "I'm willing to offer you the CEO position at Wang Corporation if you agree to this marriage and...impregnate him."


He added, almost casually, "The boy is special, with a womb, he can give birth, and I want my grandchildren from his blood...from both of you." Wang Yibo's eyes widened in disbelief at the audacity of his father's request.


The CEO position was his dream, but at what cost? Turning to a life he didn't want, and impregnating a man? It was too much to consider.


"It's a clean deal, Son," his father said, as if sealing a business transaction. Wang Yibo's response was terse, "I'll think about it."


He stormed off to his floor, his mind reeling with the weight of his father's proposal.


"Wang Yibo tossed and turned, unable to sleep as his mind raced with thoughts of the proposal. He didn't want to marry anyone, regardless of gender. Yet, the allure of becoming CEO of Wang Corporation beckoned.


His father held both the CEO and Chairman positions, but his older brother, Wang Haikuan, was set to take over the CEO role. However, since Haikuan was moved to Shanghai to manage their mother's company with his wife and daughters, Yibo knew the position was his for the taking.


He shared a similar mindset with his father, which was why he chose to stay in Beijing with him when their parents separated.


His mother, a daughter of a wealthy family, inherited a significant company in Shanghai, making Haikuan the CEO and her the Chairman. Despite their family's complex dynamics, Yibo's relationship with his brother and mother remained strong.


But his focus returned to the enigmatic Xiao Zhan, who had captured his father's attention.


Yibo couldn't fathom what made this person so special. The idea of a man having a womb and giving birth was absurd and unbelievable, making his head ache.


He got out of bed, took a painkiller, and finally found relief in sleep, 30 minutes later."
