"What! Feng is planning to call off our engagement in less than a month! That can't be possible," Zhao Liying said, instantly letting go of Su Jin's right hand. As far as she was aware, the new project the company was embarking on will be launched in less than a month, meaning that her engagement with Yifeng will be cancelled soon after then.
"It is possible. I advise you to prepare yourself both emotionally and physically so you will suffer less," Su Jin said, before he walked away.
"How can Feng want to do this to me? I have been so good to him so, why does he want to call off our engagement?" Zhao Liying mumbled, holding her hurt chest.
"I can't just stand and watch that sly fox take my man away from me. For me to prevent him from cancelling my engagement, our today's plans must work," Zhao Liying said, getting over her pain in a flash.
"Guys, I saw Shiyi giving her the drug wine the effect must have manifested slightly so, let's act according to plan Ok?" Zhao Liying instructed coldly. They all dispersed and waited for the opportunity to take action.
Yang Zi who turned around in time to see Pei Yan approaching her with a glass of wine in her right hand pretended to be oblivious of this. She continued watching Yifeng address their guest. The moment Pei Yan wanted to bump into her with the glass of wine, she hastened away. Pei Yan, who did not expect Yang Zi to move away at the last minute, could not stop in time. She bumped into a very arrogant, wealthy businesswoman who had been standing in front of Yang Zi.
Before Pei Yan could offer an apology, the woman slapped her hard on the face.
"That is to remind you not to be so clumsy, you lowly fool," the woman berated angrily, leaving Pei Yan to nurse her swollen cheeks.
Seeing her best friend getting bullied, Zhao Liying and Zihua both rushed to her side, momentarily forgetting their plans.
"That serves her right for trying to splash the glass of wine on Zi Er," Wen Min said, feeling no ounce of pity for Pei Yan.
"Guys since Yifeng finished addressing his guests, I guess this signifies that it is time for us to go home," Shui Shui said staring at them for answers.
"Yes, let's all go home," Wen Min supported. As they headed out of the hall, Shui Shui turned back and stared daggers at Zhao Liying for the last time. When Zhao Liying had insulted Yang Zi's mum, she was in the crowd. She wanted to come out and punch her hard on the face for saying such despicable words before Yang Zi beat her to it.
Zhao Liying, anywhere you see me just avoid me or else for this insult, you rained on Zi Er tonight I will repay you a million folds.
Shui Shui thought angrily, before she walked out of the hall in the company of Xiaofei and her three friends.
"Beauty, let's go home," Yifeng said, holding onto her right hand.
"Hmm, let's go," Yang Zi said mellowedly.
"Boss, I can see you and Miss Yang are on your way out," Yuan Quan, who just caught up to them, said, staring at the both of them.
"Yes, Zi Er and I are heading home. I leave you in charge of wrapping up the party and make sure nobody talks about the scene Zhao Liying caused earlier outside. Also, make sure that the reporters publish nothing about the commotion," Yifeng said sternly.
"Ok Boss, I will do exactly all you have said," Yuan Quan replied firmly. He walked away afterwards. Zhao Liying and her two friends who were very distracted did not see Yang Zi and Yifeng walk out of the enormous hall in each other's arms.
Thirty minutes later, Yifeng hugged Yang Zi after they just entered the bedroom together.
"Beauty, since in the car you have been silent. Are you mad at me?" Yifeng asked, wrapping hands around her waist.
"Why will I be upset with you? Did you perhaps do something wrong?" Yang Zi asked, turning around to face him.
"You are mad at me because I held myself back on using violence on her when she talked bad about your two mothers," Yifeng said meekly as he stared into her crystal clear eyes.
"I am not angry with you. I just didn't want to take out my piled up anger on you. That is why I kept quiet in the car, but I am sorry my anger made you worry," Yang Zi said, raising her hand to caress his face.
"I am relieved you are not angry because I was scared you were upset because of the incident that took place earlier," Yifeng said, placing his hands on her face.
"Feng, you have done everything to protect me and my family from Zhao Liying, her friends and the press so I could never get mad at you," Yang Zi said, her face inching closer to his face.
"But I have also indirectly hurt you too. I feel like I haven't protected...,"
"Feng, there is no relationship that there are no trials. Ours is the same. All these things that have happened for the past two months were to test our love, so you don't have to feel bad each time something terrible happens. You also don't have to worry about my feelings because I am fine. I am stronger than you think," Yang Zi said, touching his lips with her finger.
"Don't feel terrible for me because I choose you knowing all the obstacles that were involved in this relationship. Despite all that has happened, I don't regret choosing you, Feng," Yang Zi said affectionately.
"Zi Er, I feel so blessed to have you in my life. You are the best thing that has ever happened in my life," Yifeng said, instantly capturing her red lips.
He kissed her deeply and passionately. As they kissed intensely, they both walked towards the bed.
When they reached the bed, he nuzzled her on it. He bent and kissed her more intensely. He kissed her until they both lost their breath.
"I love you so much Zi Er, more than you or anyone can ever imagine," Yifeng said, staring at her lovingly.
"I have a gift for you. Wait here let me get it for you," Yang Zi said, hurrying away in order not to reply to Yifeng's confession.
