Chapter 384 - Come Back Safely
Wang Yibo never wanted to leave Yang Zi\'s side that night but he had no choice but to leave because he had to prepare for his early morning flight. Wang Yibo left the mansion after strictly warning Feng Shu that under no circumstances must she let Yang Zi work after he has left.
The next day, Yang Zi woke up very early. Halfway through her preparation, Yang Mi sleeping on Yang Zi\'s huge bed woke up and insisted that she was gonna drop Yang Zi off at the airport.
Yang Zi argued with the little girl about her sudden decision, but she ended up letting Yang Mi do whatever she wanted when she realised that she was short on time.
Yang Zi, Yang Mi and Feng Shu left the mansion that early morning without having breakfast. The minute Yang Zi reached the airport was the same time, Yifeng and Wang Yibo reached the airport. Despite wanting to talk to the little girl he hadn\'t spoken to for a long time, Yifeng maintained his distance when he saw the way Yang Zi glared at him when he waved at the smiling Yang Mi.
Yuan Quan arrived at the airport when it was almost time for them to board the plane. He desperately wanted to go and embrace Yang Zi the moment he set eyes on her but he mustered all the strength in him to resist that desire.
"Yuan Quan, handle the affairs of the company until Jin and I are both back on our business trip. We will come back on the designated day," Yifeng, standing holding onto the handle of his luggage instructed the guy standing in front of him.
"Don\'t worry boss, I won\'t give the chance for neither you nor director Jin to get worried. I will handle everything properly," Yuan Quan assured in a firm tone.
"That is great then," Yifeng said before he concentrated his attention on Yang Zi who was exchanging goodbyes with the little girl who had a sad expression on.
"Mum, take care of yourself. Make sure you eat and dress well so you won\'t fall sick," Yang Mi said as she placed her right hand on the squatting Yang Zi\'s cheeks.
"Same applies to you, baby. Wake up, freshen, eat and sleep on time, ok? Do whatever your Aunty Feng tells you. I will spank you if I return and learn from the maids that you gave them a hard time in my absence," Yang Zi said sternly, as she caressed the face of the girl standing in front of her.
"Mum, don\'t worry. Mi Er will be the most well-behaved girl in these four days. You will be so proud of me when you return," Yang Mi said in a serious tone.
"I promise to bring you a lot of souvenirs if you keep your promise," Yang Zi said as she embraced Mi Er.
After Yang Zi finished biding the girl goodbye, Wang Yibo took over. He did not have a lot of time to talk like Yang Zi did since they kept announcing that all passengers going to New York City to board the plane.
"Goodbye, mum. Your surprise awaits you there!" Yang Mi shouted after Yang Zi who was far away. Yang Zi did not have the opportunity to ask the girl what she meant by those words.
"Good luck, Brother Feng," Yang Mi said when she saw his sad expression.
Yifeng instantly turned and stared in the direction of the little girl after he heard her words. He could not believe that Yang Mi who was avoiding him when Yang Zi was around just spoke to him.
"Come back safely," Yang Mi said, smiling sweetly at him. Her sweet smile lightened up his dark world.
"I will do just that. Wait for my return," Yifeng said, returning the little girl\'s smile. He turned and left after taking a last glance at both Yuan Quan and Feng Shu.
The moment they saw them left the three of them turned to leave.
"Hi, Uncle Yuan Quan!" Yang Mi said waving at Yuan Quan, the moment she got a glimpse of his face.
"Mi Er, hasn\'t your mum warned you never to speak to strangers? You will think that you know them in and out but one day you will be surprised to wake up and realise that you never know them, just like strangers," Feng Shu said harshly while staring at Yuan Quan before she held Yang Mi\'s hand and they both approached the exit. Her utterances surprised Yuan Quan, nevertheless, he hurried after them.
He finally caught up to Feng Shu before she could enter the car.
"Feng Shu, what was that about earlier? Why did you say such a thing about me to little Mi Er? What if she believed what you said about me?" Yuan Quan asked seriously, holding onto her wrist. Feng Shu turned and stare at his hand on her wrist. She shifted her gaze to his face afterwards.
"Isn\'t that what you are? You have always acted like you are the only one who loves Zi Er but what did you do after she left the company? Even when you heard that she was back you did not even come to visit...,"
"I wanted to visit her but Jin and boss sternly warned me not to. They said Yang Zi wasn\'t cool with anyone associated with boss and that is why I stayed away because I respected her feelings," Yuan Quan explained himself, not letting go of her hand. Yang Mi sitting inside the car picked her phone and began playing with it while waiting for Feng Shu.
"Really? If that is the case then isn\'t Jin Yifeng\'s friend? Why did Zi Er talk and meet up with him so many times if the theory you said is true?" Feng Shu asked seriously.
"That is....," Yuan Quan did not know what to say to vindicate himself anymore.
"Let\'s leave Zi Er\'s case behind. You did not even bother to call me. I thought we were friends but your actions showed that maybe it was just my wishful thinking," Feng Shu said, as she wriggled her hand out of his grip.
