Chapter 152 - His Surprise Left Yang Zi Speechless
Yang Zi covered her mouth with her two hands in astonishment, seeing all the familiar faces. She thought she was daydreaming.
"Girl, wake up from your slumber this is not real," Yang Zi said, rubbing her eyes to wake herself up from the reality she thought was a dream.
"A very happy birthday my beloved Zi Er, I can\'t believe we are finally celebrating your birthday after a long time," Shui Shui said emerging from the crowd. She gave Yang Zi a warm hug.
"I have waited for so long to witness this day," Shui Shui said, caressing her bewildered face. Yang Zi found it hard to believe that this was happening. What even made her more astounded is the fact that she did not flare up like she always did on countless occasions Shui Shui and Shiyi organised a surprise birthday party for her. Shui Shui left her alone after she was through with her congratulatory words. Shiyi walked up to her with a bouquet in his hands. He couldn\'t stop smiling at her.
"Happy birthday, my princess. I thank the heavens for giving me a gorgeous lady on such a fabulous day like this. Your birth is a blessing to mankind. I feel blessed having you in my life and I pray every single day that we don\'t drift apart," Shiyi said, handing the bouquets to her. "I love you so much bestie," Shiyi said as he pecked her on her right cheeks before he walked away.
"This looks too real to be a dream," Yang Zi muttered, giving everyone weird gazes. Her seven closest friends took turns walking up to her to congratulate her. Yifeng was the last out of her six friends to congratulate her.
"I am sorry for pretending not to have recalled your birthday. I know you wouldn\'t believe me if I say that I couldn\'t fall asleep the entire night since my hands were itching to call you and send you a thousand text messages. I was nervous the entire day. I can still recall the number of times I almost hugged you in excitement. I barely held myself back until this moment," Yifeng relayed, staring into her amethyst eyes.
"If there is one thing you should know, it\'s that coming into my life is the best thing that has ever happened to me," Yifeng said as he handed her a bouquet of rose.
"You planned all this?" Yang Zi spoke for the first time since she realised she wasn\'t daydreaming.
"Yeah, I did but other people contributed too so thank them later, ok" Yifeng said smiling at her.
"Happy birthday, love," Yifeng said, pecking her. He gently escorted her to her specially prepared seat.
"Guys, I am so sorry for how I acted weird earlier. I know it was so unlike the ever-elegant me. I never expected that my friends would prepare a surprise birthday for me. This surprise birthday came as a total shock to me. Try to be more understanding," Yang Zi apologised staring at her colleagues who looks so happy to be a part of this happy occasion.
"We understand," everyone shouted.
"There is no occasion that you have never looked elegant. Your surprised expression looks cute earlier," Jiu said loudly. Everyone bursted out laughing when they heard his compliments. They knew he was so damn correct.
They all couldn\'t resist Yang Zi\'s cuteness earlier.
"Since we are all here, let\'s all party. Don\'t act reserved just because you are in the boss\'s Mansion. I am sure the boss won\'t scold us for getting wild today. Did I speak your mind?" Yang Zi asked, giving Yifeng a curious glare. Everyone turned to stare at him for an answer. This was their boss\'s Mansion after all, so they cannot do as they wish until he gives them permission to do so.
"Won\'t you say something Feng? You invited all of us here so speak or we will all be uncomfortable if you keep quiet on us," Su Jin spoke up since none of their employees were gutsy enough to do so.
"Has he suddenly become tongue-tied? He shouldn\'t have invited us if he knew he was going to be so self-centred. He should be thankful that today is Zi Er\'s birthday or I would have given him a piece of my mind," Shiyi thought, throwing Yifeng deadly glares.
"Stop staring at him in that manner or else Zi Er will be worried. Smile for Zi Er\'s sake Ok," Shui Shui said nudging him gently.
"You can\'t blame me for not being able to hide my dislike for him. I thought he said he likes Zi Er very much, so why is he still hesitating? He is so annoying for my liking," Shiyi said angrily.
"They are still not in good terms, right?" Jin Xiaofei asked in low keys. Shui Shui turned to face Xiaofei.
"Yeah, neither am I on good terms with him too but I am not so harsh on him anymore. I know Zi Er is always happy whenever she is with him so I have decided to treat him less harshly for her sake," Shui Shui said smiling at him.
"That is my baby. You are always so considerate and kind. That is why I like you," Xiaofei whispered into her ears, smiling.
"I know you do but let\'s act natural people are staring at us," Shui Shui said smiling at everyone. She just couldn\'t adjust to their numerous stares. This has been going on for over an hour and she felt awkward. She guessed they were not used to her presence because she is a celebrity.
"Say something and stop keeping us in suspense," Shiyi, who couldn\'t hold back his anger, said faking a smile at him. "We can go to my Mansion if your boss continues to keep silent on us," Shiyi added, staring at everyone.
"I permit everyone to do whatever they want but under no circumstances must you go to the third floor. The only person whose access is not limited is only my Secretary Yang Zi," Yifeng spoke up after a few minutes of silence.
"Only Yang Zi? You are kidding, right?" Wen Min asked, forgetting that none of the other employees knew about her relationship with Yifeng.
Everyone\'s gaze all focused on Wen Min. They wanted to know what gave her the audacity to speak to their boss in that manner.
"I am sorry boss if I sounded impolite. I never intended to question your order," Wen Min reluctantly apologised when she saw the angry gazes on their faces.
"Be thankful that today is a joyful occasion or else I would have fired you right this minute," Yifeng said, pretending to be angry.
Just then the door to the sitting room opened and a teenage boy walked into their midst majestically. Although he was a teenager, he looked dazzling in his casual clothes.
"Why is it so quiet here? Come on SPY, play the music" Li Chen shouted. SPY (is the newest technology Li\'s Enterprises launch) immediately started playing hip-pop the minute he finished talking. He danced to the rhythm of the music as he walked towards where Yang Zi was sitting.
Everyone just stared at the bold teenager in a daze.
"Happy birthday, Miss Yang," Li Chen said, staring at Yang Zi. Nobody knew whether he saw the rest of the people or he was only pretending not to notice their presence.
"Chen, I didn\'t know you were in this with them. I bet Mi Er is involved too, right," Yang Zi said, giving him a suspicious glare.
Everyone was surprised to see how close their relationship was. They had always suspected Yang Zi\'s relationship with their boss, and this surprise party further clarified their doubts.
"Yeah she is, it\'s so sad that she can\'t make it to the party but I am here on both my behalf and hers too," Chen said playfully.
"Can I give you a hug and also a peck? I have wanted to do this for so long," Chen said, still beaming at Yang Zi.
"Chen!" Yifeng exclaimed loudly when he heard how bold his little brother had become. He wasn\'t even afraid of him anymore. "I guess I have been too lenient on him, which is why he is misbehaving," Yifeng thought standing up. He walked closer to where he was standing.
"Brother Feng, it\'s Miss Yang\'s birthday today so I can ask her for this much. Besides, Mi Er specifically told me to request for the peck since she couldn\'t make it," Li Chen said. It was when he looked around the sitting room that he saw that they had companies.
"I am sorry everyone for my rudeness. I was too excited to notice that we had other companies," Li Chen said, bowing apologetically. "I am sorry. Please pardon my ill manners," Chen apologised further. The moment he set his eyes on Shui Shui, he rushed over to her side.
"Wow, so Mi Er wasn\'t telling a lie when she said supermodel Qing Shui was her Auntie," Li Chen said staring admirably at Shui Shui. Yang Zi\'s colleagues could not help but wonder who the mysterious Mi Er was after hearing Li Chen mentioned the name repeatedly.
"Are we gonna stay here all day staring at you? Guys, for heaven\'s sake, today is Yang Zi\'s birthday. Let\'s postpone every unrelated activity, Ok," Su Jin spoke up. Shiyi did not waste time in supporting him.
