Novel Bin Chapter 116 - Free At Last
"I lost now that both of my grandsons like her so I will sleep over the matter," Chairman Li spoke up after some minutes of silence.
"That is good to hear and don\'t worry Grandpa, I will talk to brother Feng later. I know just what to tell him that will put him in high spirit. He won\'t be angry again after he hears what I have to say," Chen said confidently.
"That is my good grandson. Come here and give grandpa a hug," Chairman Li said, spreading his hands. There are two speciific months in a year that Chairman Li often missed his deceased son and daughter-in-law like crazy. It was during their death anniversary and Christmas. He always remembered how happy they always were when they came to the Mansion to spend their Christmas there. That is why he is overly sensitive during those days, maybe that is why he kept bringing Zhao Liying up during their discussion.
"Grandpa, there is something I forgot to tell you when I relayed what happened in the park on my birthday," Chen who was now in his Grandpa arms said smiling.
"And what is that?" Chairman Li asked, patting his hair.
"You now have a granddaughter who loves you so much despite not meeting you. She really wants to meet you," Chen said, giggling.
"You now have a girlfriend? How come you didn\'t tell grandpa all this while?" Chairman Li asked playfully just to match his mischievous grandson\'s mood.
"Girlfriend? I don\'t have one. Brother Feng said, I am not old enough for that. He has promised to severely punish me if I dare disobey him so I can\'t have a girlfriend even though I want to," Chen said smiling.
"Who is she if not your girlfriend?" Chairman Li asked, playing with Chen\'s collar.
"I can\'t tell you who she is because it is a surprise. All you have to know is that Brother Feng loves her so much so I am sure you will adore her too," Chen said before he stood up from his grandpa\'s laps.
"I can\'t wait to see her then," said Grandpa.
"I am off to see Brother Feng. I will see you before you retire to bed," Chen said, waving at his Grandpa as he walked out of the dining room. Christmas night ended so well for the Li\'s too, because Yifeng made up with his Grandpa before 12:00am.
Back in the Yang\'s Mansion, Yang Zi was seen typing on her phone.
"Jingxian, as I told you earlier, I won\'t be able to make it to the final hearing tomorrow because I have to resume work on that day. I tried asking my boss for permission, but he said I should consider myself fired if I don\'t resume work. I am so sorry once again but don\'t worry I will try my best to sneak out but I am not promising you anything. I hope you had a thrilled Christmas? Goodnight," Yang Zi pressed the send button. She went through her contacts and she stopped scrolling when she got to a particular contact. She brought her finger closer to the screen. She wanted to dial the contact, but she resisted. After repeatedly trying to dial the number but didn\'t, she threw her phone on her bed. She didn\'t know what happened, she just couldn\'t bring herself to call him.
"I wonder how his Christmas went," Yang Zi thought as she covered her face with her palms. She fell asleep without even changing into her pajamas. All her thoughts were that of him as she fell asleep.
Yang Zi woke up early, and do her normal routine. She dressed in a blue fitted suit with a black high heels to compliment her clothes. She neatly tied her hair into a ponytail and wore her black sunglasses. This superb outfit was to celebrate her freedom. She was finally free at last.
"Good morning mum," Yang Zi climbing down the stairs greeted waving her hands at her mum.
"Wow!" Yang Mi who was sitting close to her mum remarked, covering her agape mouth with her two hands in bewilderment. She has seen her sister dressed up uncountable times, but her young mind could never get used to her sister\'s heavenly appearance.
"Morning, baby, you look dazzling. All the guys will definitely lose their breath by merely staring at you," Mrs Yang complimented.
"Thank you mum," Yang Zi said beaming at her.
"Mum, you look fantastic, amazing, fabulous, superb, splendid, astonishing and what else again?" Yang Mi said cracking her brains to find the next works to fit her list of vocabulary.
"I have forgotten the rest but to put in a simpler sentence. You look fantastically out of this universe," Yang Mi complimented, running to embrace her.
"Wow! That was the nicest compliment I have ever heard which makes me want to ask, where did you learn this from?" Yang Zi asked, lifting her up. She wasn\'t worried that her clothes might get stained.
"From your male admirers. I always took notes whenever they compliment you, so that is why I got to learn these words and not only that. I also know their meanings too," Yang Mi said proudly, staring at her sister\'s face within close reach.
"I am so proud of you, baby. I will sleep over here tonight since my cute baby has made me proud," Yang Zi said playfully as she pecked her on her cheeks.
"Woo hoo.... thank you mum," Yang Mi exclaimed, happily pecking her back.
"I will leave now," Yang Zi said, dropping Yang Mi on the milky-coloured couch whose top was decorated with golden designs.
"You are leaving without breakfast? Mi Er and I were just waiting to have breakfast with you, so why don\'t you grab a bite before you leave?" Mrs Yang coaxed, standing up to her feet.
"I am sorry but I am late for work, mum. You and Mi Er will have to eat today without me," Yang Zi said, hugging her mum before she turned and walked away. Yang Mi ran after her.
"Mum, make sure to come home before dinner because mummy and I are gonna wait for you," Yang Mi said waving at her.
"I will try, baby, but enter the Mansion. It\'s cold outside," Yang Zi shouted back at her, waving at her with her right hand while controlling the steering with the other.
Immediately Yang Zi left the Mansion, she turned the music on and started dancing while driving. She hummed along with it. She was so f*cking excited that her enemies were finally going to be judged by the law they said they were mightier than eight years ago. Because of her excitement and high spirit, she was shocked when she realised that she was in front of her office.
"So soon!" Yang Zi exclaimed as she drove to the parking space. She elegantly stepped out of the car, one foot at a time, her handbag in her left hand. She put her glasses on before she gracefully walked to the company\'s entrance.
When she entered the office everyone stared at the elegantly dressed lady. Her looks were something a guy would willingly exchange his most priced treasure for. Everyone who went on the five days holiday all crowded around her, not minding that their boss might arrive soon.
"Hi, Miss Yang, you are looking so fabulous today,"
"How are you now,"
"We were so worried about you after you left the resort in that manner. I hope you are alright now,"
"How was your Christmas?"
"Miss Yang, sorry I couldn\'t visit you even though you were sick. The truth is, I don\'t know where you live,"
"Wow! You look so beautiful,"
"You look gorgeous,"
They all spoke at once, giving Yang Zi a headache. With their too many questions and compliments, she didn\'t know which one to answer and which one not to.
"Yang Zi!" A lady\'s voice disrupted their chattering. They gently made way for the crazy lady. Yang Zi did not need to turn around to know who just shouted her name.
"I missed you. I was so damn worried about you," Wen Min said, hugging her tightly. She didn\'t mind that everyone was giving her weird glances for taking Yang Zi\'s attention away from them.
"I have missed you too and I am sorry for making you worried, but can you please take me away from here?" Yang Zi whispered into her ears as she smiled at the onlookers.
"Sure, I will save you from them because I don\'t want to share the time I am supposed to spend with you. So let\'s go," Wen Min said, pulling out of her embrace.
"Sorry everyone but I will have to steal her away from you. Don\'t hold grudges against me because of this, Ok?" Wen Min said, dragging Yang Zi away. She didn\'t look back because she could feel that their gazes were not a pleasant one, one filled with pure hatred. Wen Min\'s desk was on the third floor, but she followed Yang Zi to her office. They were not surprised to see that Yuan Quan was already at his desk.
"Hi there, I haven\'t forgiven you for what you did even though I know he ordered you to do so," Wen Min said to Yuan Quan waving at him.
