Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me Chapter 6

"I thought you said you were going to come back early in order to welcome Shui Shui so why are you arriving this late?" Shiyi asked annoyed.
"Don't even go there Shiyi. That darn boss of mine made me work the whole day without rest. I was so engrossed in the documents to the point that I did not realize what the time was. I was shocked when I looked at my wristwatch after I finished. Would you believe me if I told you that I ran all the way here?" Yang Zi asked, trying to catch her breath.
"I can't believe he could go to that extent just to get at you for annoying him on your first meeting. I can see that your boss is the type to hold grudges," Shiyi said with a softer tone as he sipped his glass of wine that was in his hand.
"He is the meanest boss I have ever worked with so what about Shui Shui?" Yang Zi asked meekly as she searched the room for a sign that her friend was there.
"She is really mad at you this time around. You knew how much she was looking forward to seeing you right? I guess her disappointment was as big as her expectations. If you want to see her, she is in there," Shiyi said concerned as he pointed at the door which was slightly opened.
"I know what you mean and I will try my best to appease her. Don't worry," Yang Zi said confidently as she instantly dropped her bag on the chair before she walked towards the opened door. She switched on the lights right when she walked through the door and saw Shui Shui sitting down on the bed with a glass of wine in her hand. Yang Zi could see the sullen look on Qing Shui's face. The way she tried so hard to avoid looking at Yang Zi was evidence that she was mad at her.

"You hate being in a dark place so why did you turn off the lights?" Yang Zi asked mellowly as she sat down beside Shui Shui. Shui Shui acted like she did not hear Yang Zi's words. Instead of answering her question she shifted a few distances away from her. Qing Shui is fondly called Shui Shui by Yang Zi and Luo Shiyi.
"Shui Shui, don't be mad Ok? I really worked my ass off just to be able to meet you when you arrived and I'm really sorry I still couldn't make it. Can you believe that I stayed in a spot for more than nine hours working without moving an inch? I skipped lunch and dinner just so that I could finish work fast and see you. So please forgive me!" Yang Zi pleaded and gave her best friend the puppy eye stare, knowing that it was her best friend's weakness. Qing Shui chuckled when she saw how adorable she was.
"You are not the type to be bullied. So why did you allow that mean CEO of yours to bully you without beating some senses into him huh," Shui finally spoke after learning that her best friend had a good reason for not showing up on time.
"The truth is he is doing this because I pissed him off on our first meeting. He is doing this to make me quit. Let's discuss my boss another day. He's not important right now. So how was your business trip? I hope you amazed all the foreigners with your fantastic business proposals? Were you able to negotiate the opening of your family's new branch in Switzerland?" Yang Zi asked excitedly, trying to make the tension in the room go away.
"I can teach him a lesson on your behalf if you want and my business trip was long and boring. Do you know that I almost booked a flight back home the day we had our first long and boring meeting? I really missed the carefree life. No working in the office and no trying to please any investor," Qing Shui said with a frown on her face. Qing Shui grew up being carefree and was able to do whatever she wanted ever since their childhood. She didn't like being tied down in one place, whether it was work related or anything in general. She was the mischievous type who was loves her acting career very much. She despised working in the office so much.

"Don't worry, you will get used to it soon if you keep on practicing. Besides, it was only a three days trip. Think of it like a short vacation or get away. At least your dad did not ask you to go for a month or even longer. Forget about your tiresome business! I have a surprise gift for you and I am sure that you will definitely love it when you see it," Yang Zi said excitedly as she instantly wrapped her right hand around Shui shoulders.
"Really? What is it? Can I see it now?" Shui Shui asked anxiously as she immediately searched for Yang Zi handbag not knowing that it was in the other room.
"Yes! Let's go so that I can show it to you," Yang Zi said happily as she dragged her by the hand to the room where she had placed her bag. When she got a hold of her handbag, she quickly brought out a sketchbook and handed it over to Shui Shui. Without wasting time, Shui Shui instantly opened the sketchbook in excitement.
"Wow! This dress is just perfect! I can't believe you sketched it just for me," Shui Shui's eyes shone in excitement as she used her fingers to trace every line of the beautiful drawing.
"Don't just stop there! There are two more waiting for you," Yang Zi said as she beckoned her to continue flipping through the sketchbook.
"You are the best! This is the masterpiece Shui Shui needs to outshine all the other celebrities for the award ceremony that is coming up in three months. The three dresses are just out of this world! When I saw you scribbling something on your sketchbook I thought it was for your fashion line. I am surprised that you actually designed it for Shui Shui," Shiyi said, sounding very jealous.
"You sound so jealous. Do you want one? I would have considered giving it to you but too bad you are a guy," Shui Shui said trying to make Shiyi even more jealous.
"You don't have to be so petty because I never said I wanted it," Shiyi fired back sharply.
"Shui Shui, there is no need for you to tease Shiyi in this manner. Shiyi, since you have always been Shui's escort on all her award events, I also sketched two dazzling suites and blazers for you. You will look breathtakingly handsome, trust me!" Yang Zi exclaims as she shows him her designs.
"Since I have finished sketching it, the only thing left for me to do is design it. With my new boss, who is hell bent on making me quit, I don't know how tough work will be after today but I assure you, I will make sure I finish your outfits before the award ceremony," Yang Zi reassured them.
Yang Zi, being way too excited, continued talking by asking, "Shiyi, what tabs did you get on Zhou Yixian today? Any information about the places he normally visits and yeah I heard that he is a womanizer? Is that rumour true?"
