"Yourong, are you saying that my woman is crazy that is why she attacked an innocent person?" Yifeng asked, his fierce glare directed at Yourong.

"I... I... I didn't," Yourong stammered.

​​

"You said you didn't, but that is what your word implies or don't tell me you didn't actually see what happened here...,"

"Feng, why are you trying to threaten her into changing her statement?" Zhao Liying interrupted him sharply.

"Instead of wasting your time on the maid, shouldn't you throw this murderer out of this Mansion and then take me to the hospital afterwards?" Zhao Liying asked, walking closer to Yifeng. Yifeng turned and faced Feng Shu, ignoring Zhao Liying.

"Feng Shu, call the head of the security guards and tell him to come with two of his men. There is some trash he needs to clean here," Yifeng said before he turned back and faced Zhao Liying, now standing beside him.

"Zhao Liying, did you think I asked her what happened because I believed you?" Yifeng said, smirking devilishly.

"Hell no! I have always wanted to know who in this Mansion was the spy who always gave you information about our every single move. I suspected that there was a catch in it when you quickly called one of my maids to be your witness that is why I deliberately let her speak," Yifeng said, smiling.

"Yourong, I have always thought that you were a smart lady, but you proved my opinion wrong today. You are so foolish to be used by someone like Zhao Liying, who doesn't give a damn about you...,"

"Feng, are you trying to say I did this to myself? How could you be so heartless to take sides with this b*tch after she brutally cut my delicate skin?" Zhao Liying asked with a pained look.

"Zhao Liying, are you still gonna keep claiming that Zi Er did that to you? I don't mind checking the CCTV footage of the entire Mansion to verify who is lying and who is telling the truth," Yifeng said, pointing his hands at locations where CCTVs were installed in the Mansion.

Did he install CCTV cameras in the Mansion? Oh, goddamn it! Why didn't that stupid maid inform me about the most crucial information?

Zhao Liying thought as she tried to come up with an idea to save herself from the impending danger.

"Feng, why do I feel so dizzy? I guess I must have lost a lot of blood. I can barely stand because of the dizziness," Zhao Liying said, staggering back and forth. Before they could spell JACK, Zhao Liying fainted in front of everyone's prying eyes.

Just then, the head of the security guards entered the sitting room with two of his men. Yang Zi ceased the momentary distraction of Yifeng and walked closer to where Zhao Liying was lying down.

"Zhao Liying, I have always regarded you as a very intelligent woman, not knowing that you were a complete fool. How could walk into my man's house to frame me? Did you think he would believe that obvious lie you came with?" Yang Zi mocked her.

"After all the stunts you pulled, I can't believe you just injured yourself for nothing," Yang Zi said, shaking her head in disappointment. She went back to her previous position before Yifeng could bring back his attention.

After Yifeng finished passing his instruction to the head of the security guards, his two men who accompanied him into the Mansion roughly dragged Yourong out of the Mansion while he carried Zhao Liying. Those watching the scene from afar scrambled when Yifeng threw them a murderous glare.

"Feng Shu, you are one of the elites in my team. I assigned you not only to be her maid but to protect her. I will not let you off easily if this kind of nonsense ever repeats itself," Yifeng said coldly.

"I am sorry, boss. I will make sure what happened today never repeat itself," Feng Shu said firmly before she left the couple alone.

Yang Zi and Yifeng went to their room upstairs so the maids cleaning up the mess Zhao Liying created won't disrupt them.

"Feng, has Zhao Liying ever suffered from any mental issues before my arrival because after I witnessed what she did earlier I can't help but think she is crazy," Yang Zi said after they had sat down on the couch.

"No, she doesn't have any mental issues that I am aware of," Yifeng said, with an indifferent expression.

"If she doesn't then I don't know what to think of her anymore," Yang Zi said.

"Harming others for hurting you is understandable, but how could she leisurely cut herself while laughing devilishly. I don't see myself ever doing such a thing in a million years," Yang Zi said, sounding so disappointed in what Zhao Liying did.

"Beauty, it's her body, she can do whatever that pleases her to her body it's her business, not ours. Nobody told her to become so obsessed to the point of no redemption, so don't stress yourself over what happened earlier," Yifeng said, as he let her rest her head on his shoulders.

"I am not worried about her, I am just curious about why she did such a despicable thing to herself. Was framing me her only aim, or did she have some other plans laid out?" Yang Zi asked suspiciously.

"Maybe she was just bored that is why she came up with such a ridiculous scheme to taint your reputation in the Mansion," Yifeng replied.

"She...,"

"Beauty, let's stop talking about her. Your dad's birthday is tomorrow let nothing or anyone ruin your mood a day to such an important day," Yifeng interrupted, in a meek tone. His men monitoring Zhao Liying and her friends did not report about them doing something fishy, so there wasn't any reason to be so worried.

"I haven't forgotten about that," Yang Zi replied, raising her head from his shoulders.

"How is the arrangement going? Are you sure you don't need me to come with you? And what about Mi Er, what did you do about her pleads for you to take her along with you?" Yifeng asked anxiously. He felt so terrible when he recalled Mi Er sobbing over the phone just because her mummy and mum did not want to take her along to visit her dad.

"I am just going there with a bouquet of flower and a packet of his favourite candy so there is no need to ask about how the arrangement is progressing," Yang Zi said.

"I still want to visit them alone as I said before and Mi Er is going to visit my dad in the morning with my mum while, I will go alone late in the afternoon so you don't have to worry about her," Yang Zi said, forcing on a smile.

"I am sure she will be very thrilled now that she is going to visit her dad," Yifeng said, forcing on a smile too.

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that Jin and I have a meeting in that area tomorrow, but our meeting is gonna end late so I am not sure we can go home together," Yifeng said, as he stroked her hands affectionately.

"It's ok. Although the distance is quite far, I can drive home safely so you don't have to worry about me when you are in the meeting," Yang Zi said calmly.

"Ok, I will call when my meeting is over," Yifeng concluded.

Knowing Zhao Liying's temperament perfectly well, she wouldn't have pretended to have fainted earlier after brutally cutting her wrist. I have this bad feeling that she caused that scene to distract our mind from her actual plans. I will tell the bodyguards guarding Chen and Mi Er to be vigilant in case Zhao Liying and her friends are up to something terrible.

Yang Zi thought, staring into space. The couples stayed in each other's arms for a long time.

The next day when it was time for her appointment, Yang Zi folded everything she was doing and prepared herself to leave the office. Yifeng who was reluctant to let her travel that far distance alone had no choice but to see her off. He went back into the company after her car was no longer in sight.

Yang Zi's journey from the office to the columbarium her dad's ashes were kept took her three hours because of the heavy traffic on the road.

On reaching the place, she parked her car outside the vast space which served as the parking lounge. With the three bouquets in her hands, she made her way inside the building.

Inside she walked pass few people who paid a visit to their loved ones. After walking for about three minutes, she finally reached where her dad's urn was kept.

"Hello, dad, happy birthday. See, I brought your favourite chrysanthemum flower and your favourite candy," Yang Zi said, with mixed feelings. She was happy that it was her dad's birthday. She also felt so sad that they had to celebrate it this way.
