Chapter 348 - What Did Zi Er Say?

Before Yang Zi went to meet her very important guests, she glanced at Wen Min standing among where her employees were standing. She wasn't surprised to see the stunned expression on the young lady's face.

Yang Zi moved from one business partner to the other. Two hours of her time was spent in greeting. The exhausted Yang Zi exited the hall after she was done with getting herself familiar with the businessmen and women present in the hall.

In the corridor, Yang Zi heard a guy's voice call her name but she acted as though she did not hear his voice. She continued walking and not looking back. The way she quickened her pace showed that she did not want the guy to catch up to her.

The moment she entered the elevator, she repeatedly pressed the button so the guy would not catch up to her. Yang Zi's wish came through since the guy could not reach her before the elevator closed.

"She is so damn good at running away, darn! If she thinks I will give up because the elevator closed on me, then she is wrong," Yifeng said as he hurried to the staircase. He ran hastily on the stairs just so that he could catch up to her. The moment he reached the ground floor, he quickly raced towards the parking lounge. After he reached the parking lounge, he sighted her from far away.

"Wait, Zi Er. I have something to tell you," Yifeng said as he continued running. At that moment, his reputation or ego meant nothing to him. All that was on his mind was to catch up to that young lady before she slipped away just like she did two years ago.

"Hurry," Yang Zi ordered the moment she entered the car. The driver instantly did like she ordered. He drove away before Yifeng who was close by could reach the car.

"Damn! I still failed despite all my efforts," Yifeng cursed loudly, as he stared at the car which just turned right. 

"She is back but she does not want to see me. Just to talk to her, I will do anything just to achieve that. Wait for me Yang Zi, because Li Yifeng is coming for you," Yifeng said, as he breathed heavily. His chest heaved in rhythm to his heavy breathing. 

Still staring in the direction the white sports car disappeared from, someone walked up to him. The person stood in front of him to get his attention. 

"Feng, were you able to talk to her? What did she say? Is she still very angry with you?" Jin asked anxiously, as he stared at Yifeng's face for answers. 

"She ran very fast just to make sure I couldn't catch up to her. I was a few minutes late and she seized that opportunity and slipped away just like she did two years ago," Yifeng said in a sad tone.

"I know just how much you miss her and want to talk to her but despite that, you couldn't talk to her. You should be happy that she is back. We now know where to find her if we want to see her. She is just close by, so don't let today's incident affect your mood," Jin said encouragingly, as he played his hand on his right shoulder.

"It has just been two years and she has lost a lot of weight. Even from afar, I can tell that she has also become colder. She seems like a different person from the Zi Er we know. It breaks my heart to see her lose so much weight," Yifeng said, his expression turning sad.

"Whether or not she is different from your beloved Zi Er, we will know that after you have had a heart to heart talk with her. Even though she had changed as you said, I am sure that her love for you will never change," Jin assured as he forced on a smile.

"I just wish you are right. I can't bear to see her ignore me after finally getting to see her. I don't think my heart will able to accept her rejection,"' Yifeng said.

"Feng, you can leave now. I am sure Zhao Liying is on her way now. You know how she is. Although she is slightly different now, it is still a renowned fact that she abhors Zi Er, she will begin saying bad things about her and with your temper, I am afraid you might raise your hand against her so just leave now," Jin urged when he heard footsteps coming towards their direction from afar.

"I am not afraid of her....,"

"I know you are not and neither am I but do what I have said. There are dozens of reporters roaming around this entire hotel searching for different news. This is Yang Zi's company party and it will not be good for Zi Er or her company if the reporter's caught you and Zhao Liying quarrelling on this special day," Jin explained further to Yifeng.

"You are correct. Zi Er has worked so hard to make sure that this event is perfect. I can't let negative news be written on it because of me so, I am leaving," Yifeng said in a mellowed tone.

"Ok, don't let what happened here make you sleepless. Try as much as possible to sleep even though you are anxious to see her again," Jin said.

"I will try," Yifeng said before he turned and walked coolly towards where his car was parked. He entered the car and his driver drove off. The moment Yifeng's car exited the parking lounge, Zhao Liying showed up in the company of her two friends.

"Where is Feng? Did he use the restroom?" Zhao Liying asked as she scrutinised the parking lounge in search of him.

"Stop searching because he is not here. He left a moment ago before you all arrived. He is...,"

"Why didn't you stop him? You know just how much I tried to make sure he stayed behind. Why do you think I did this if not to spend uninterrupted romantic moments with him but you ruined my plans by just letting him leave like that," Zhao Liying scolded Jin angrily.

"Why are you talking to me like I am your hired watchdog? If you had wanted to spend time with him, you should have told him that. How dare you speak so harshly to me just because I have been very polite with you?" Jin said furiously, to the shock of the angry Zhao Liying and her friends.
