Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

Chapter 231 - Mrs Zhao Trying To Buy Yang Zi Off With Material Things

"Mum, I would really love to follow your advice, but I can't. For the remaining 23 days, I want to stay happily with him. I will reveal everything to him after these 23 days are over," Yang Zi mumbled, tears rolling down her face. She rested her back on the couch and closed her eyes. She stayed like that for over fifteen minutes.

The next day Yang Zi was working on her desk when her phone beeped. She frowned when she saw who the sender was. After reading the message for the fifth time, she requested Yuan Quan to stand in for her, for the time she would be away. She carried her handbag and car keys and headed out. 

Outside the cafe, Yang Zi sat inside her car contemplating whether she made the right decision by coming to meet a person she considered an enemy.

"I don't care anymore," Yang Zi remarked, stepping out of her car. She smiled brightly as she headed towards the glass building.

Inside the cafe, immediately she got a glimpse of her guest from afar off. Her broad smile turned to a frown.

"Hi," Yang Zi greeted nonchalantly, sitting on the opposite side of the table.

"I thought you wouldn't come, but I am glad you did. You saved me the trouble of bashing into the company to disgrace you," Mrs Zhao said, throwing Yang Zi a piercing glare.

"Am I supposed to be grateful for that?" Yang Zi asked, rolling her eyes disgustedly.

"I didn't come here to exchange words with a rude brat like you...,"

"At least I am not as bratty and rude as your daughter, I should be grateful to my mum for educating me well," Yang Zi said, smiling at Mrs Zhao just to piss her off more than she already is.

"Did she educate you well like you said? You don't need me to tell you the answers right?" Mrs Zhao said, not hiding her displeasure for the beautiful lady before her.

"At least she educated me better than you did to your daughter or don't you agree with me, Mrs Zhao?" Yang Zi asked spitefully. She also did not hide her dislike for the middle-aged woman before her.

She is so damn rude. She also looks like one who doesn't enjoy losing, just like that stupid adopted mother of hers. I see why they are so close despite not being related by blood.

Mrs Zhao thought, gritting her teeth in anger when she realised that Yang Zi was deliberately getting on her nerves.

"As I said earlier, I didn't invite you here to exchange words with you. I just came to formally warn you to stay away from Li Yifeng. He has long been engaged to my daughter, I won't let you snatch her man away from her under my watch," Mrs Zhao said firmly.

"Her man?" Yang Zi chuckled. "From what Feng told me, I heard it was the elders who announced the engagement without his knowledge, so how is he your daughter's man?" Yang Zi asked curiously.

"And if he had any iota of love for your daughter, he wouldn't have fallen head over heels for me so, why are you picking a fight with me when all I did was to claim what is fully mine?" Yang Zi asked, quickly sipping water from the glass cup in front of her.

Furious, Mrs Zhao grabbed the glass of water, ready to splash it on Yang Zi's face.

"Before you splash that glass of water on me, think twice about it because before you splash that glass of water on me, I would have already got you wet. I won't be courteous just because you are an elderly person so, think twice about your actions," Yang Zi threatened, shaking the glass of water in her hand to show Mrs Zhao that her words were not mere threats.

 I respect and adore my elders so much but, how dare she wants to treat me like some local thief when I stole nothing from her or her family. She should be thankful I promised mum not to do anything terrible to her because I wouldn't have been so polite.

Yang Zi thought angrily, her grip around the glass cup tightening.

"What do you want? A house, car, money, box of jewels, house, land just name it and I will give it to you right now in exchange for staying away from Yifeng," Mrs Zhao quickly changed her strategy, seeing that the harsh approach did not work on Yang Zi.

"Cars, houses, jewels, money? Why the hell do I need those when I already have all you have just mentioned," Yang Zi said smiling.

"All I need is Yifeng. Even though you offer me the entire universe in exchange for staying away from him, I will never do it. Do you know why?" Yang Zi asked rhetorically.

"Because my love for him is priceless. It is purer than the finest jade. I could never leave him for anything in this world, so don't try to buy me off with your...,"

"Take this. It is enough to sustain you in this lifetime. If that isn't enough, I can give you more as long as you promise to quit your job, never to meet Yifeng ever again," Mrs Zhao said, dropping a huge envelope containing an enormous sum of money on the glass table. 

Yang Zi put her hand inside her white handbag and brought out a white envelope. Mrs Zhao stared at the envelope, curious to know the content of the envelope.

"This envelope contains a large sum of money. Don't underestimate the size because its content is far bigger than what you can ever imagine," The well prepared Yang Zi who expected this from the woman said, pushing the envelope to the bewildered Mrs Zhao.

"As you can see it is not only you who has money, I also have money too, but the difference between you and me is that you brag about your wealth while I don't. You can add that money to yours in exchange for you and everyone related to you staying away from me. Don't fail to inform me if you want more," Yang Zi said, carrying her handbag ready to leave, but Mrs Zhao's next words prevented her from doing so.
