BXBX NOVEL Chapter 296 - Yang Zi Was Greatly Disturbed
"Miss Yang, why did you leave the office? You know the boss will severely punish me for this if he learns about this," Yuan Quan asked meekly, as he shifted his eyes to her legs.
He quickly squatted when he noticed a sign of bruises around her ankle.
"Miss Yang, look now you have sustained a bruise because you failed to listen to my words. Now I am sure that boss will not spare me," Yuan Quan said in a worried tone. From the way he talked, people will think that he was worried about the punishment but Wen Min and Yang Zi knew that was not the case.
"Yuan Quan, can you stop scolding me in the office too? Feng scolds me because of my leg at the Mansion. At least let me walk around a little when I am in the office in peace, ok? I am afraid I might really become cripple if I sit in a place just like you guys want," Yang Zi said. Yuan Quan wanted to help massage her legs to ease the pain but he stood up when he realised that it was inappropriate of him to touch her.
"Ok, but promise me you will apply ointment on the bruise so, it will relieve the pain," Yuan Quan said sternly. He only left them alone after Yang Zi made him a promise.
"He sure cares a lot about you. He looks so worried," Wen Min commented after Yuan Quan was out of sight.
"Yuan Quan is always attentive so I am not so surprised to see him act like this," Yang Zi said as she sipped her coffee.
The two ladies continued talking until lunchbreak was over. Wen Min who herself was in pain, temporarily forgot about her pains and assisted Yang Zi to her office.
Yang Zi continued working until late in the afternoon when Yuan Quan informed her that Yifeng said he should drive her back to the Mansion.
Reaching the Mansion, Yang Zi was surprised to see the car Yifeng used for his appointment parked outside the Mansion.
Maybe he was exhausted that is why he couldn\'t pick me up from the office.
Yang Zi thought as she headed into the Mansion. Feng Shu and Yuan Quan followed her closely. Yang Zi had expected to see Yifeng resting in their room, but she was surprised when she saw him working on his laptop in the sitting room. The worst thing was that he did not even notice her arrival.
"Boss, Young Miss is back," Feng Shu announced when she saw that her boss was too engrossed with his work.
"You are back," Yifeng said with a lack of enthusiasm. His carefree attitude made Yang Zi unhappy. She just stood there watching him.
"Feng Shu, assist your Young Miss to the room while I have a few words with Yuan Quan," Yifeng said, standing up with his laptop in his hands.
He wouldn\'t even ask me how my day in the office was. What has come over him overnight?
Yang Zi thought, staring at his departing back. He did not even spare her a glance.
"Young Miss don\'t be upset, I am sure boss is acting this way because he is busy," Feng Shu tried to comfort her when she saw Yang Zi\'s unhappy expression.
"Even when our company wanted to launch a new technology he never acted this way. He always made out time for me so, how busy can he possibly be that he couldn\'t even hug me?" Yang Zi said gritting her teeth in fury.
"Miss, I am sure you are overthinking. Boss would never ignore you deliberately I am sure of that," Feng Shu said.
"I wish your words are correct," Yang Zi said, as she walked towards the stairs. She headed to their room. After settling down she freshened up and changed into something casual.
Thinking that maybe she was really overthinking just like Feng Shu had said, she patiently waited for Yifeng to get over his meeting with Yuan Quan. She waited for hours and yet he didn\'t come into their room. Even when she went to his study to look for him, she realised that no one was in his study.
When she asked the maids, they just told him that he went out. Because of how angry she was, she didn\'t have her dinner.
Despite being angry at him, she still waited for him to come back but to her greatest disappointment, Yifeng did not come. Because of the effect of the drugs she took, she could not stay awake anymore so at exactly 1:00 am she fell asleep on the couch.
For the next four days, Yifeng continued to treat the poor Yang Zi like that. At the end of the fourth day, Yang Zi became so scared that maybe Yifeng was acting like that because he found out something terrible about her. She was afraid to the point that she could not get a wink of sleep that night.
After thinking about ways to solve whatever misunderstanding they had, she recalled that Grandpa Li asked her to visit him.
When she reminded Yifeng about his Grandpa\'s invitation, he agreed to go with her to Li\'s main Mansion.
The next day, Yang Zi went to the mall during lunch break to get a gift for Grandpa Li. It has always been a habit of hers to buy gifts each time she wanted to visit an elder\'s home and that has become a part of her.
Knowing that she will meet Li Chen in the Mansion, she did not forget to buy gifts for him too.
Yang Zi and Yifeng both headed to Grandpa\'s Mansion after work. Grandpa Li was so delighted to see the both of them. He could not stop thanking Yang Zi for bringing his unfilial grandson along with her.
The four of them had dinner like a family that they were. While on the dining table, Li Chen took his time to relay everything that happened that his Grandpa wasn\'t aware of. He even complained about how his elder brother bullied him in the presence of Yang Zi. Even when Yifeng ordered him to keep quiet, he continued chattering away.
