"I would have wanted you to undergo the surgery early, but I know that you would love to see your beloved Shui Shui get engaged so, how about we have the surgery after Shui Shui's engagement party?" Yang Zi asked sounding nervous.
"I will go along with whatever you choose but I have conditions," Wang Yibo said. Yang Zi's smile slowly faded away on learning that Wang Yibo had conditions.
"And what are your conditions?" Yang Zi asked with anxiety written over her face. Her hands became all sweaty.
"My first condition is that you get me discharged first thing tomorrow's morning...,"
"But we can't do that YiYi, you need to stay in the hospital to receive your treatments," Yang Zi interrupted him sharply.
"And my second condition is that you give me five days of your time.. These are my two conditions and whether or not I will agree to undergo the surgery relies on your reply so, think first before you reply," Wang Yibo said seriously. Yang Zi who was about to talk paused whatever she wanted to say when she heard his threat.
"I understand you want to get discharged because you dislike the hospital, but I don't understand what your second condition means so do you care to explain?" Yang Zi said in a composed tone.
"The chance that I might die is higher than the chance of me surviving so, I want to use these five days to do whatever I want with you. I want to use these five days to do all the things I couldn't do with you all these years," Wang Yibo explained. It was after he spoke that Yang Zi understood what the five days conditions meant.
"Deal! I was even planning to leave M's Fashion Line in Mo Yu's care for a few months but I guess I will use this opportunity to leave the company in her care earlier than I had planned," Yang Zi agreed to the surprise of Wang Yibo.
Wow! Zi Er really agreed to my conditions without any hesitation.
Wang Yibo thought. His expression showed that he did not expect Yang Zi to readily agree to his conditions.
"I am going to keep my promise so, you better make sure you keep yours, ok?" Yang Zi asked in a tone that carried a threat.
"Sure," Wang Yibo said smiling.
"One more thing YiYi, I forgot to tell you that your parents are arriving tomorrow. I told them that you were sick but I did not tell them what you are diagnosed with so they promised to arrive tomorrow. Brace yourself to get scolded because I am going to badmouth you when Auntie and uncle reach here," Yang Zi said.
"Whether or not you badmouth me, mum and dad will still scold me for your sake so I am not scared anymore since I am used to it," Wang Yibo replied with smiles on his face.
"Yeah, you are right. Auntie and uncle dote on me, they always take my side," Yang Zi said.
Yang Zi and Wang Yibo continued talking for a long time but Yang Zi had to leave later since apart from having to pick Yang Mi up from the airport, she needed to reach her office very early and sort things out. Yang Zi went about her things in her home before she showered and went to bed.
If anyone had told her what happened earlier in the restaurant, she wouldn't have been able to sleep peacefully. In fact, sleep would have vanished from her eyes that night if she knew the immense pain Yifeng had to go through all because of her.
Yang Zi woke up very early the next morning feeling very refreshed. She left for the office without having breakfast. She worked until it was about thirty minutes to the time Li Chen and the others were supposed to come back from their trip.
"Have fun being the CEO of M's Fashion Line, Mo Yu," Yang Zi complimented when she was about to leave.
"Are you trying to make me cry, Zi Er? How is being the CEO fun?" Mo Yu asked?
Mo Yu was stunned at the meeting held early in the morning when Yang Zi told everyone that she will resume the position as the CEO the next day.
Some people were against the idea of her being the CEO but nobody dared to challenge the decision of the CEO. Besides, before Yang Zi resumed the position she was the one managing the company that is why so many people supported Yang Zi's decisions.
"Don't worry, you will do just fine but I am not sure Jin will be cool with my decision. He might even scold me for giving you so much work," Yang Zi said with smiles on her phone.
"He hasn't called you yet?" Mo Yu asked surprised that the furious Su Jin did not call Yang Zi to challenge her for hurting his best friend.
"Was he supposed to call me? Is there something wrong?" Yang Zi asked curiously.
"No, I was just curious that maybe he called you. You know Jin can not spend three days without calling to check up on you," Mo Yu lied. She felt somehow relieved that Jin did not call Yang Zi.
"Ok, I will go pick up the kids now," Yang Zi said as she left the office. When she got to where her car was parked, she was stunned to see Jin standing with his back resting against her car.
"Hi, Jin, I and Mo Yu were just talking about you earlier. I can't believe we met here. I am sure she will be happy to see you," Yang Zi said beaming at him. Su Jin stood properly when he saw her.
"I am not here to see Mo Yu but you. Also, the mood I am in right now is not suitable for her to see," Su Jin said sternly to the surprise of Yang Zi. From how stiff his expression was, Yang Zi knew that something must be wrong.
"What's wrong, Jin? You don't look happy," Yang Zi said as she stood in front of him.
"That is because nothing is happening that is worth me being happy about. Besides, how could I be happy when my best friend is in a state of misery?" Jin asked as he raised his gaze to stare at her face.
