"I will that is if I can ever fall in love with another lady and you don't have to worry about mum, she will get mad at first but she will understand my decision, eventually," Su Jin said, gulping down the entire content in the glass. This is the first time Yifeng saw him so miserable, he felt terrible seeing his best friend in this state.
"You haven't told me who she is. And put yourself in Auntie's shoes, how will you feel if your only child tells you he isn't interested in getting married?" Yifeng asked seriously.
"Her identity is a secret and I can't put myself in her shoes because I am not a father yet," Su Jin said, avoiding staring at him.
"If you tell me who she is, I might be able to help you. I will do everything within my capacity to help you because I hate seeing my buddy in this miserable state," Yifeng said, putting the wine glass on the table.
"Will you? I doubt you will if you learn about who she is," Su Jin said doubtfully.
"Why don't you try me and see if I will be of help," Yifeng challenged.
"You have your problem to battle with, there is no need to add mine to the list," Su Jin said, gulping down another glass of wine to the displeasure of Yifeng.
"Can't we just forget about my problems and concentrate on yours?" Yifeng refused to give up.
"Talking about my story will make us more depressed, so why don't we talk about how your date with Zi Er went," Su Jin said, quickly changing the topic. They kept on arguing until Yifeng gave in to Jin's demands.
A few hours later, Yang Zi who was working on her laptop hurried downstairs, when Yifeng called her at about 1:30 am to tell her he was downstairs.
As she reached downstairs, she kept a safe distance from Yifeng. She was afraid that not only was he drunk but might have also smoked.
"Did you also smoke?" Yang Zi asked, throwing Yifeng a suspicious glance.
"No....," Yifeng said approaching where she was standing. He hugged her tightly when he reached where she was standing.
"You reek of alcohol. Why did you drink so much? If you had any trouble, you could have shared it with me instead of drinking yourself to stupor," Yang Zi said, patting his back.
"I drank because I love you so much. Each day I wake up without you beside me, fear always creeps into my heart. Fear that one day you will stop loving me. My heart always aches badly each time I think about this. I love you more than you can ever fathom, Zi Er. I love you with my entire being so please, despite my shortcomings, never leave me," Yifeng said, embracing her tighter.
"Feng, you are suffocating me. Can you let go?" suffocated Yang Zi said, tapping his shoulders.
"Zi Er, just promise you won't leave me, huh?" Yifeng insisted acting like an overpampered child. They said love can bring even the mighty to his knees, this is case of Yifeng. If someone had told him he will fall in love with a woman, he would never have believed it. He would assumed that the person was spewing nonsense but here he is acting like a spoiled child because he is head over heels for Yang Zi.
"Feng, I thought we settled this in the flower field house yesterday? I promised you, I won't leave you, so why are you so scared? Did I do something that made you assume I am leaving you?" Yang Zi asked seriously.
"I know you said that but knowing your temperament so well, I know those words and promises will become meaningless if something else happens," Yifeng said, releasing her only to cup her cheeks.
"If Zhao Liying or her two friends try anything stupid with my family or loved ones, you don't have to worry about me leaving you because I am going to kill them. They can do anything that pleases them to me, but absolutely not with my loved ones," Yang Zi said seriously.
"You will kill them?" Yifeng asked, her words sobering him up instantly.
"Yeah, isn't that a pleasant idea? By doing that there will be no one to constantly bother us," Yang Zi said, staring into Yifeng's eyeballs.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Yang Zi asked when Yifeng kept quiet.
"I'm going home. I will talk to you tomorrow when I am sober. I am sorry for disturbing your beauty sleep, I guess it was a bad idea for me to drop by," Yifeng said, letting go of her face.
"Are you leaving when you just arrived? Didn't you come here even in this state because you missed me?" Yang Zi said displeased.
"Are you leaving because I said I will murder your fiancee and her friends? I won't let them push me to the extent of murdering them so, you don't have to worry about what I said earlier," Yang Zi said, giving him a back hug.
"If ever it comes to that point, instead of dirtying your hands with their blood, let me do the killing, Ok? I love you too much to let you soil your hands with anyone's blood again," Yifeng said, caressing her hands on his waist.
"But...,"
"No objections, right? Just let me win this one, hmm?" Yifeng said, turning to face her.
"Did you come because you missed having me beside you?" Yang Zi, who did not want to make promises she could not keep asked, as she pecked him on his lips.
"Mm... I missed you so much, I didn't think I could survive another second without seeing you that is why I rushed over to meet you," Yifeng said, pecking her too.
"Did you miss me too?" Yifeng asked anxiously.
"I did, I missed you terribly. I was about to call you before you beat me to it...,"
"That's because I missed you more," Yifeng said.
"I missed you more, you were just a little faster than me....,"
"No, I did, because not only did I called you first, but I also came all the way here to meet you so just admit it I missed you more," Yifeng insisted, not willing to lose to his smart wife this time.
"I missed you a thousand times more than you did....,"
"Let's just admit that we both missed each other equally. There is no need to keep arguing about this," Yifeng said, pulling her in for a kiss. The driver waiting for him in the car looked away when he saw the two lovebirds kiss.
"Don't drink again if you reach the Mansion or I will get so mad with you if Feng Shu reports to me you didn't do like I said," Yang Zi warned after they talked late into the night inside the car.
