Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

Chapter 332 - Zi Er, Why Are You Here?



In the car, Yang Mi kept on playing with her phone until her driver halted in front of a glass building. She entered the restaurant with Mr Jiang following her closely. 

"Thank goodness you made it. I was so worried you were going to avoid me as you did for the past days," Li Chen said when Yang Mi reached the table he had booked.

​​

"Mr Jiang, please can you sit there and wait for us?" Yang Mi asked politely, not uttering a word to Chen.

"Ok, I will be sitting right there. Call me if you need any help," Mr Jiang said, throwing Li Chen a fierce glare before he walked to the table at their right-hand side.

"Chen Chen, I had to lie to Sister Zi Er before she let me come out. I feel very bad about lying to her but I couldn't bear to see you wait out here all day long," Yang Mi said, as she sat down on the opposite chair.

"I am sorry for threatening you to stay out here until you show up. I just missed seeing you. I was very worried about you and Sister Zi Er and I did not know any other way to meet you since your security men didn't let me into your mansion," Li Chen said, as he focused his gaze on the girl sitting in front of him.

"They are just following Sister Zi Er's orders that is why the security guards are not allowing you into the Mansion. Sister Zi Er is in a lot of pain right now so, I hope you won't blame her for whatever decision she made," Yang Mi said, as she grabbed the menu from the table. She quickly called a waitress to take her order. Li Chen also placed his orders. 

Li Chen stared at Yang Mi not knowing what to say. In fact, the talkative Mi Er had always been the one to initiate all the conversations each time they met which is why he didn't know what to say.

After the waitress placed their orders, they began eating. Halfway through their meal, Li Chen who couldn't tolerate the awkwardness between them spoke up.

"So, how are you now?" Li Chen asked curiously. 

"My mummy's death still feels like a dream to me. My heart aches a lot each time I think about mummy. It hurts even more when I go through her things or pictures but I am consoled each time I recall that I have another awesome mummy who loves me so much," Yang Mi said, as she dropped the cutlery on her plate. 

"I am sure you will get better as time passes by. I am saying this because I understand the feeling of losing a parent," Li Chen said in a bid to console her.

"I really wish that time could heal all wounds. I want my mum to get better, she has been crying a lot after mummy died. She barely eats since she doesn't have an appetite. I get so scared each time she spaces out and my heart hurts each time I see her cry so I wish she will get better as time goes on," Yang Mi said as the tears she was trying so hard to hold back fell on her cheeks. Li Chen quickly rushed to her side with a white handkerchief in his hand.

"Mi Er, please don't cry, hmm? Each time I see you in tears, I always feel like crying so please stop crying ok?" Li Chen asked as she pulled Mi Er closer and cleaned her tears. Afterwards, he let her lean on his shoulder.

"Mi Er, I am sure everything will go back to how it normally was so just hang in there for a while, ok?" Li Chen said as he patted Yang Mi's well-styled hair.

"Chen Chen, that is what I am hoping for also. I also want us to go back to how happy we were in the past," Yang Mi said, as she hugged him tighter.

After she had stopped crying, Li Chen who wanted to make her happy tricked her into going to a game house with him. The two of them played all manners of games. Li Chen felt a sense of warmth seeing Yang Mi smile so broadly. He was so happy with himself for being able to make Yang Mi forget her troubles for even a while. While playing, they lost track of time. 

Yang Mi only realised that she had stayed out for over five hours when her elder sister called her phone. Li Chen watched as Yang Mi's car disappear. Even though the car was long gone, he continued to stand there spacing out.

I wonder when I will have the chance to hang out with my best buddy again. I get this strange feeling that we might never get to see each other again. Am I being paranoid or is my instinct correct? 

Li Chen thought, as he reluctantly entered the car. His driver drove off afterwards.

Fifteen minutes later, Yang Mi's car parked outside the mansion.

"Mr Jiang, please keep the fact that I met Chen Chen today a secret from Mum. She will get furious with me if she knows that I lied to her so, please do me this favour ok?" Yang Mi said after her driver has got out of the car.

"Since he was able to make you smile once again, I will keep your secret safe. Young Master Li Chen is a nice boy after all so, I don't want him to get into trouble with the Young Miss," Mr Jiang assured seriously. 

"Thank you so much," Yang Mi said before she got out of the car. When she got to the sitting room, Yang Zi was eagerly waiting for her. When Yang Zi asked her what she and her best friend did outside, Yang Mi narrated everything in details to her but she did not mention that it was Li Chen she hanged out with and not Shen Ji. 

After making sure that Yang Mi freshened up, Yang Zi immediately tucked the little girl to sleep. When Yang Zi wanted to climb out of Yang Mi's bed, she had to gently unwrap Yang Mi's hands which were wrapped around her body tightly.

"For me to make him stop following me about, I need to state where I stand right now. I will never be at peace with myself if I don't make things clear to him," Yang Zi standing facing a brown wardrobe mumbled, as she opened the wardrobe. She removed a white long sleeve shirt and a black denim trouser from the wardrobe. With the set of clothes in her hands, she went back to her bedroom where she freshened up and changed into the outfit she picked.

She left the mansion without taking her security guards with her but Mr Jiang secretly followed her. After fifteen minutes of driving, her car halted inside a very huge mansion. On coming out of the car, Yang Zi contemplated whether or not to enter the mansion. After some minutes of contemplation, she finally entered the mansion.

Entering the sitting room, she met Su Jin and Yifeng talking. Su Jin whose back was facing the entrance did not know when she entered the room. He only turned around when Yifeng sprang up to his feet abruptly like he had just seen a ghost.

"Zi Er!" Su Jin remarked in shock, as he stood up instantly. He did not need Zi Er to say that she was in a bad mood since her expression said it all.

"I will excuse you both now," Su Jin said when he felt the awkwardness between these two lovers.

"There is no need for you to do that since what I want to tell him is not anything private," Yang Zi said coldly. The chills of her voice gave Jin goosebumps. He silently prayed that they wouldn't get into a fight. With him alone, he would not know how to separate them if they fought there.

"Ok, so how about having a seat?" Su Jin asked nervously when they were just staring at each other. With how tense the atmosphere was, he knew it would become even tenser if they stood up while speaking.

"I will leave after saying what I have in mind so, there is no need for me to sit," Yang Zi said firmly, her gaze still focused on Yifeng.

"Zi Er, why are you here? You should have told me if you wanted to talk. I would have come to you if you had said so," Yifeng finally spoke up for the first time, since Yang Zi stepped foot into the room.

"What relationship do we have that I would call you just because I wanted to tell you my mind? Do we have any other relationship apart from that of the victim and my mum's murderer?" Yang Zi asked fiercely. Her words shattered Yifeng's once hopeful expression. The moment she finished saying these words, he could guess why she came there. She came to his mansion to officially cut off all ties with him.

He could guess her intention without having to think for too long.
