"Boss, have you forgotten what I told you? I wasn't playing around when I told you I would quit if you require anything from me besides being your employee that I am right now, so I would suggest you don't make me do it," Yang Zi replied sternly. She knew she was a b*tch for treating the guy who saved her life and also became sick because of her, but she was doing all these for his sake. She did not want to drag anyone into the mess she has put herself into. Most of all, she wasn't ready to give her heart to anyone since it would be impossible to retrieve it after giving it away.
There was dead silence in the car after Yang Zi's utterances. His face became paler after hearing her reply. He was disappointed and his expression showed it. After five minutes of silence, Yifeng started the car again and zoomed off. No one uttered anything to each other until they got to Queen City's biggest hospital called D&M. The hospital was the best in the City and even in the country. It had the best medical equipments and also the best medical practitioners. His popularity is known all over the country.
In front of the hospital, Yang Zi hesitated from entering the hospital. She tried to hide her trembling hands behind her back, but Yifeng still saw the fear on her face. He hates hospital too but seeing how severe her dislike was for the hospital, he could only presume that her strong dislike towards hospital had something to do with her trauma. Her forehead became sweaty.
"You don't look good. Are you Ok?" Yifeng asked worriedly moving closer to her. Yang Zi's mind had wandered far away. Standing in front of the hospital. The memory of the day she and her sister were rushed to the hospital flood back to her. After that day, she only woke up four months later to learn that her sister was dead and buried. She nearly went insane when she learned that she had slept for an entire four months. Spending four months in the hospital made her loathe hospitals. She always had the urge to puke when she entered a hospital.
"Yang Zi, what is wrong?" Concerned, Yifeng asked, touching her forehead. Yang Zi snapped back to reality.
"Nothing," Yang Zi exclaimed, avoiding his gaze. "Nothing is wrong," Yang Zi chanted.
"Look at how you are shivering and you said nothing is wrong? Does this have anything to do with your trauma?" Yifeng asked.
"I am Ok and I have told you to forget everything I said to you last night, so why are you still being inquisitive?" Yang Zi questioned, still avoiding his gaze. She was afraid that he will see through her.
"Let's go," Yang Zi commanded before she headed into the vast hospital.
After being directed by the nurse at the front desk on where to find her mum and sick sister, Yang Zi followed his directions. Since time was just 5:30 am, the hospital was not very busy like it would have been during the day. The directions the nurse gave her took her to the 2nd floor. Yang Zi and Yifeng walked passed many rooms before she got to the room her sister was admitted in. When she sighted her mum from afar sitting down beside sleeping Yang Mi, she hurried to meet her.
"Mum!" Yang Zi exclaimed when she got close to where Mrs Yang was sitting down. She tried all best to suppress her urge to puke.
"Zi Er, why are you here already? I thought I sternly told you to stay back and take care of yourself? Why are you so stubborn?" Mrs Yang nagged, standing up to give Yang Zi a warm hug.
"You can't blame me. As you know I take after your stubbornness. We are both the most strong-headed ladies that the world has ever seen," Yang Zi joked as she sniffed the scent of her mum she has missed so much. The sweet-scented rose fragrance temporarily suppressed her urge to vomit.
"You are so silly," Mrs Yang said, tapping her back. Mrs Yang was so happy to see her back. It was when she pulled out of Yang Zi's embrace that she saw the guy standing beside Yang Zi. At first glance, she recognised who he was. She could never forget those dark, lifeless eyes. The only difference is that his eyes now had a bit of life in it. She knew who he was without being told so, but she decided to act dumb.
"Darling, I can see you have a company. He is so handsome. I guess he is your boyfriend, right?" Mrs Yang asked, pointing at Yifeng. She scrutinised him from head to toe. She was satisfied with how manly he became. Yifeng immediately threw curious at Yang Zi when Mrs Yang called him her boyfriend. He wanted her to be the one to explain their relationship, not him.
"Mum, he is my boss, not my boyfriend. You watched the news every day so how come you don't even know who your darling daughter's boyfriend is?" Yang Zi asked, nudging her mum playfully. She took a peep at Yifeng to see his reaction. It was when she stared at him she remembered that he was sick through his pale face.
"Oh, so he is your boss?" Mrs Yang repeated, nodding her head in realisation. She turned to face Yifeng fully.
"Hey boy, you don't look too well. Are you alright?" Mrs Yang asked the moment she noticed Yifeng's pale face.
"Good morning Mrs Yang, I am sorry for the late introduction. I am Li Yifeng, the CEO of BEST Enterprises," Yifeng said, bowing slightly. The first impression was important, so he wanted to leave a good impression on their first meeting. He could not afford to mess up.
"So you are my daughter's boss? You are so polite for your status. You are not as pompous as all the CEOs I have met and I love that about you," Mrs Yang complimented. "Thank you for putting up with this stubborn daughter of mine. I could only imagine what you must have gone through with her working under you," Mrs Yang said, patting Yang Zi's back. The presence of Yang Zi took away all her sadness. She was glad that Yang Zi defiled her words. She would have been so dejected and miserable watching over Yang Mi without the company of anyone.
