Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

Chapter 146 - Not A Prank



"Are you sure you want to give me tips and not pull a prank on me again?" Yifeng asked in doubts.

"I am not pulling a prank on you. Brother Feng, don't blame me for not helping you later if Miss Yang does not like your gift," Li Chen said, acting as though his brother's words offended him. He made to stand up, but Yifeng instantly pulled him back on the couch.

​​

"Ok, I believe you but I swear I am gonna kill you for real if I find out you were messing around with me," Yifeng threatened coldly. He gave him a fierce glare to show him he meant what he just said.

"I promise, it's not a prank. I just want to help you get Miss Yang faster than you planned but don't forget to thank Mi Er for the tips if it works out well," Li Chen said seriously to assure his elder brother that he wasn't playing around.

"I want to give her a customised bracelet with the first letter of her name engraved on it and I will also give her a car, mansion and flower as bonus gifts," Yifeng said proudly. Li Chen frowned when he heard all he had just mentioned.

"All the gifts you have just mentioned are fabulous, but...,"

"But what? They are not enough?" Yifeng interrupted sharply.

"Other ladies would have jumped up in excitement after receiving those gifts, but Miss Yang is different. She might accept the flowers, but I am a hundred percent certain that she will send the rest back to you," Li Chen lectured. He felt thrilled giving his elder brother tips on how to impress Yang Zi.

"Stop keeping me in suspense and continue," Yifeng ordered. He was curious to know the point Li Chen was trying to make.

"She is damn rich according to what Mi Er said so your expensive gifts will not move her heart instead she will assume you are trying to boast about your wealth. I heard she hates men who think they can buy a lady over with gifts...,"

"How come Mi Er tells you all this? People will think you are the one pursuing Yang Zi," Yifeng interrupted him again. 

"I have an idea about a perfect gift you can give that she will appreciate. It will contain your sincerity, sweat and love for her. I am a hundred percent sure that this gift will touch her heart," Li Chen said confidently.

"And what's that?" Yifeng asked sternly. Li Chen moved closer to him and whispered the words into his ears, giggling at every interval.

"What?" Yifeng exclaimed in total bewilderment when he heard the crazy idea his little brother had just come up with.

"Don't you like my idea?" Li Chen asked. He felt like bursting out laughing when he saw the expression of shock on his brother's face, but he knew too well not to laugh or else he would receive a serious beating from him.

"You know what? Your idea is impossible. It has been eleven long years. How do I go about achieving this," Yifeng asked.

"Brother Feng, people called you a prodigy back then because you were exceptionally good so I know you can do this. You have a week to make a masterpiece for her. Mi Er and I will be rooting for you," Li Chen said encouragingly.

"Fighting....," Chen said before he went upstairs to his room, leaving his elder brother to think about the suggestion he has just made.

"Oh God, how am I gonna do this? Chen's suggestion is spectacular, but the problem is I don't even know how to go about this," dejected Yifeng thought, staring into space. He wanted to impress her with his gifts and nothing must go wrong with his gifts or else he will feel so disappointed in himself that is why he was afraid he will mess up.

"I will opt for another gift if this one does not work out," Yifeng thought. He stood up and walked upstairs. He turned the door handle of a room he hadn't stepped his feet into since the day he created the room two years ago. Everything in the room was neatly arranged. He touched the large rectangular table on the right side of the room, the table was spotless. No dust could be found. His maids always cleansed the room every day because they know how fussy their boss can be. After admiring the room, he immediately dived into work.

While Yifeng was busy trying to come up with the perfect gifts to impress Yang Zi, Mrs Zhao was in a rage as she conversed with her husband.

"Sweet-heart, why do I have the feeling that our daughter not coming back as she always planned is deliberate. My instincts tell me that someone out there is manipulating her return," Mrs Zhao said, trying to stay calm as she spoke. Her beloved daughter whose case was supposed to end six months ago keeps delaying her trip back home because of complications with the case. Whenever it looked like the case was ending, something else always popped up out of nowhere. It looked like someone powerful was against her comeback. "Who on earth is behind my daughter's constant trip cancellations?" Frustrated, Mrs Zhao thought.

"Who the hell is so gutsy to manipulate my daughter's case? If your instincts are right, then I will not let such a gutsy individual go scot-free," Mr Zhao stated furiously. With his position as the Chief Judge in the country, nobody has dared to mess with his family, so who gave this person the guts to mess with his beloved daughter.

"Who else? I am certain Yifeng has a hand in this. He is the only gutsy person in Keelung country to go against you," Mrs Zhao said, fuming. She could no longer hold back her anger.

"And what makes you think he has a hand in this?" Mr Zhao asked curiously as he gave his wife a curious gaze. He was aware of how gutsy CEO Li of Li's Enterprises is, but he found it hard to believe that he would do such a terrible thing to his fiancee. That will be so inhumane of him if it is proved true.

"Pei Yan told me about a week ago that Liying's engagement might be in jeopardy. I didn't believe her until I confirmed what she said," Mrs Zhao replied. She felt like smashing things when she recalled the scene she witnessed three days ago.

"And what did you confirm? What is Yifeng up to this time around?" Mr Zhao asked, staring at her face for an answer.

"He is publicly showing affection to his secretary when he knows that he has a fiancee. How can he do this to our beloved daughter who loves him so much? Doesn't he care about the impact this will have on his image and the reputation of his Company if the public learns about his reckless lifestyle?" Mrs Zhao asked, staring at her husband.

From his actions and expression, she knew that Yifeng never liked his daughter since the day the engagement was announced nine years ago, but she has expected him to at least stay faithful to his daughter who loves him so much. Nine years have passed, and she had also expected for him to at least develop feelings for her daughter, but his dislike towards her worsened.

"You are talking about his reputation? Don't you know that our reputation is at stake if he ruins his reputation? I have protected my reputation all my life and I will not let one stupid young man tarnish either my perfect image or that of my daughter. I will make sure I do something about this," Mr Zhao admonished.

"I will pay a visit to Liying in Paris. I will make sure she comes back with me," Mrs Zhao said seriously. She believed that making a trip to Paris will guarantee the return of her only daughter.

"Now you are talking, but make sure you don't mention a thing about Yifeng's unfaithfulness. I don't want her throwing tantrums the moment she arrives," Mr Zhao warned sternly before he stood up and walked to his study. 

....

In the airport, Yang Zi sat down in between two ladies. A middle-aged lady and a young average pretty lady.

"As you are going to the United States to study make sure you study hard so you will make me proud, Ok," Yang Zi said playfully as she caressed Jingxian's hands. Because of how harsh the public sentiments have been, she offered to send Jingxian abroad to further her studies. Her mother will go along with her.

"I will sister Zi Er. As I have said earlier, I can't thank you enough for all you have done for me and mum before and after brother Yixian's demise. You have been like a sister and a friend. Thank you so much," Jingxian said, feeling of guilt washing over her. She felt guilty that she became a burden to her. She and mother's trip including her studies and living expenses abroad was all going to be sponsored by Yang Zi and she felt indebted to her.
