"Shiyi, I know that you love me a lot. I am also well aware of the fact that my happiness is your top priority but you shouldn't have done such an injustice to that poor lady just because you didn't want to see me more hurt! Shiyi, you should never tie your happiness to mine. That is a terrible thing to do," Yang Zi said sternly.

"Shiyi, you are a good and a cool guy. You are the nicest and the most loving man I have ever known. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to be together with the one you love. Seeing you compromise your happiness just for my sake hurts me instead of making me happy, Shiyi. I love you very much and my greatest wish of all is to see you and Shui Shui happy," Yang Zi concluded.

"Zi Er, you don't have to compromise just because you want to see me happy. Her cousin did an unforgivable thing to you...,"

"You said it was him who sinned and not her right, so why should she be punished?" Yang Zi asked fiercely.

"But...,"

"Shiyi, I have got over the past now. The past no longer affects me so you don't have to go through all of this. I am perfectly fine now," Yang Zi assured Shiyi, as she forced a smile on just to deceive him.

"Why are you staring at me like that, you don't believe me?" Yang Zi asked when she realised the way Shiyi was staring at her strangely.

"Of course, I believe you," Shiyi replied his eyes focused on her face.

"Wen Min...,"

"Cutie Pie, here you are! We searched everywhere for you," Wang Yibo remarked in relief the moment he saw Yang Zi.

"The naughty one is here, I better go and call the others," Shiyi mumbled before he walked into the mansion. He came back a few minutes later in the company of others.

Yang Mi hugged every single one of them before she stood beside her mother.

"Sister Tian, let's meet up soon," Yang Mi said as she waved at them.

Everyone left except Wang Yibo.

"YiYi, aren't you leaving too? I have to tuck Mi Er in so, I might not have time to spend with you," Yang Zi said when she saw that Wang Yibo refused to let go of her.

"Cutie Pie, I keep having this feeling that everything from the moment I met you is a dream. I keep feeling that everything will vanish after I wake up. Zi Er you know just how much I want this to be reality....," Yang Zi pinched him hard on the cheek to clear his doubt.

"See, none of all that happened is a dream. You are in the reality and not in the fantasy world so, relax," Yang Zi assured.

Feng Shu standing beside Yang Mi quickly took the little girl into the mansion when she saw that Yang Zi had something private to talk about with Wang Yibo.

"Cutie Pie, I know that you are very busy at the moment but will you go out on a date with me after Fashion Week is over? Please, please, please don't say no, hmm?" Wang Yibo said as he put on his most adorable smile.

"I will think about it," Yang Zi said as she gave him a goodbye hug.

"I have to tuck Mi Er to bed so be a good boy and leave. You can come to help me out in the office if you are not busy," Yang Zi said, patting his back before she pulls away from him.

Wang Yibo reluctantly approached his car. He took a last glance at Yang Zi before he entered the car.

Yang Zi went back into the mansion after his car had gone out of sight.

After Yang Zi tucked Yang Mi in bed, she could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tried. Since she couldn't fall asleep, she worked on her laptop until it was time for her to get prepared for work.

Despite feeling exhausted, she dragged herself to work. At lunch, Mo Yu forced Yang Zi who refused to go for lunch out of the office. Without having a choice, she went to a nearby cafe to grab a bite. Heading towards the automatic glass door, Yang Zi heard a voice call her. Even without turning around, she knew who the voice belonged to but she refused to turn around.

"Zi Er, are you also avoiding me too? I thought we were cool. Did I perhaps do something to make you angry without me being aware of it?" Su Jin, who just caught up to her asked, holding onto her right hand firmly. Yang Zi was left with no other choice than to turn around to face him.

"Me? Mad at you? Of course not," Yang Zi, now staring at Su Jin quickly denied the allegations.

"If you want me to believe that you are not upset with me, how about we have lunch here? It has been so long since I last saw and spoke to you. I have missed you so much, you are gonna do me this favour right?" Su Jin insisted in a serious tone.

I have been trying to stay away from those who made my past miserable. I am not yet ready to meet them so, why the heck do I keep coincidentally running into them?

Yang Zi thought as she stared at the handsome Su Jin who was wearing a green suit and his hair well parted.

"Ok, I was about to grab a bite here so, let's go in. We are obstructing the entrance," Yang Zi said, as she took the initiative and walked into the cafe. Jin followed her closely for fear that she might slip away if he took his eyes off her for a minute.

The moment they entered the cafe, the waitress directed them to a table. After sitting down, the two immediately placed their orders. Afraid that talking might ruin her mood, the considerate Su Jin allowed her to finish her meal before he started questioning her.

"Zi Er, how are you? You have become so slender and even prettier...,"
