"Yang Zi, wait, let's go together," Yifeng insisted when he saw her heading towards the door.

"Boss, it's Miss Yang not Yang Zi, we are not close enough to address each other by our names don't you think so? And sorry, I can't let you drive in the same car with me," Yang Zi said as she opened the door. ​​

"One more thing, please don't leave a single of your belongings here because I won't hesitate to throw it out if I come back and find any of your stuff here and please take precautions when leaving so my neighbours won't see you coming out of my apartment. I don't want to be in a relationship scandal with you," Yang Zi added before she walked out of the room. On her way to the office, Yang Zi recalled that she had forgotten to tell Yifeng about meeting his little brother because of the incident that occurred the previous day. She decided not to tell him again since it was not a big issue.

"Good morning Miss Yang, you look so remarkable today," Yuan Quan complimented her when he saw her enter the office.

"Thank you Yuan Quan, you also look dazzling today," Yang Zi replied absent-mindedly as she walked to her seat.

"Miss Yang, you don't look happy. Did someone upset you? You can tell me, you might feel better if you talk to someone," Yuan Quan said genuinely concerned about her. Yang Zi knew very well that Yuan Quan was not an evil person since she has interacted with him closely for the past three months, but she could not bring herself to tell him what was bothering her since it involved their Boss.

"Thank you so much for your offer Yuan Quan but I will be fine," Yang Zi replied smiling but her smile looked so superficial, Yuan Quan could see that she was just forcing herself to smile. When CEO Li arrived, he did not meet Yang Zi at her desk, and when he asked Yuan Quan, he told him that Miss Yang excused herself. It was then Yuan Quan quickly guessed what must have made Yang Zi look so upset when she arrived. He recalled that his Boss was staying at her apartment so he guessed he must have caused why she was so upset.

Throughout that day, Yuan Quan did not have a moment of peace since he became the messenger of these two. Yifeng called him to pass any instruction or document to Yang Zi whenever he had work for her, and Yang Zi did the same whenever she wanted to submit any document to Yifeng. He was so tired at the end of the day as a result of him having to run around the company for the entire day.

"I am free at last," Yuan Quan sighed as he made his way home.

......

One month later, Yang Zi was busy chatting with Yuan Quan when her office telephone rang. She did not hesitate to answer the line. It surprised her to know that the call was from the reception desk since she knew very well that her Boss did not have any appointment at the moment. She was even more stunned when the receptionist informed her she had a visitor. She could not think of who the mysterious visitor could be. The only person she could think of was Yixian after all he was now her boyfriend. After her last visit to his Mansion he has been disturbing her to drop over again. Without wasting much of the receptionist's time, she told her to let the person in. After hanging up the call, she forcefully prepared herself to lash out at the guy she supposed was her visitor. Yuan Quan, who was happily chatting with her, was astonished to see her mood change suddenly. He postponed their chat to some other time, as it was so obvious that Yang Zi was not in the mood to chat anymore.

"Miss Yang," Li Yifeng, who just arrived minutes ago, called her name calmly.

"Yes, what can I do for you Boss?" Yang Zi who was anxiously waiting for her visitor replied when she heard her Boss call her name. She cursed her luck when she saw her Boss standing in front of her when she was expecting someone else. Yuan Quan also extended his greetings when he saw his Boss. He had known for sometime now that his Boss and Yang Zi had a misunderstanding but he could not bring himself to ask her what happened considering her temperament very well.

"It's already time for lunch so why isn't my lunch delivered by now? I thought I made myself clear that I won't tolerate any form of delay in the delivery of my meals?" Li Yifeng demanded coldly. "Why is he getting mad at me when I am not the one responsible for delivering his meal? He has been living just fine for the past few days without having his lunch, so why is he making a fuss about it now?" Yang Zi thought angrily as she gritted her teeth in annoyance.

"Boss, I have already called the manager of the restaurant and he said that there is a problem with their delivery system so your lunch will arrive late today. You don't have to worry, I am sure that the delivery guy is already on his way," Yang Zi answered softly with a fake smile on her face.

"Why should I be inconvenienced just because their delivery system had an issue? And why didn't you order my meal from another restaurant if you knew that their delivery system had an issue?" Li Yifeng asked sternly. The tone of his voice showed that he was angry. He completely forgot his promise to treat her nicely.

"You specifically told me you wanted all your meals from their restaurant and not from any other restaurant. I was just obeying your order so I don't understand why you are getting mad at me right now?" Yang Zi cross-questioned, trying very hard to control herself from flaring up.

"Since when did you start adhering to my instructions, Miss Yang?" Li Yifeng questioned. Yang Zi was so angry when she heard his remarks, she could no longer pretend to be what she was not and just when she wanted to speak her mind an angelic voice interrupted her.

"Mum!", a little girl's voice shouted in excitement. It startled Yang Zi when she heard the familiar voice that she has gotten so used to. The girl ran excitedly towards her. The first thing she did was hug Yang Zi, who was now standing up. The expression of shock was still written all over her pretty face as she hugged the girl back.
