Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

"Ok, I understand your point. Tell me what happened," Yang Zi ordered, waiting for him to speak, but he didn't speak even after three minutes of silence.

"Chen, don't you trust me enough to tell me what is wrong? I am considered a friend, or am I wrong?" Yang Zi asked, sounding hurt.

"It's not like that...,"

"Then what is the problem?" Yang Zi interrupted him sharply.

"The matter is too delicate to discuss over the phone so I thought that maybe you could meet me outside to talk about it but it's fine with me if you cannot do me this favour," Li Chen replied miserably making Yang Zi feel terrible. Yang Zi kept silent for some minutes, pondering over what to do. It was 8:00pm, almost time for her to leave the office. After thinking for a while, she decided.

"It's almost time for my closing hour so there is no harm in leaving early besides your brother is not around to nag me so lets meet. Where should I meet you?" Yang Zi asked firmly. "Yes," Li Chen mumbled, stretching the phone far away so Yang Zi will not hear him.

"I will send you the location right now. Thank you so much, Miss Yang, I will never forget your kindness," Li Chen said. His voice showed that he meant every word he said.

"It's my pleasure to help you. See you soon," Yang Zi replied before she disconnected the call. She started arranging her belongings as she waited for Li Chen's text message. She left the office immediately as she received his message. Since she was familiar with the location Chen sent to her, she reached her destination within fifteen minutes. She had expected that where she was meeting Li Chen would be in a cafe, but she was stunned when the location he sent to her took her to a very huge restaurant. From the name Royal Palace Restaurant and the exterior design of the building, she did not need anyone to tell her that the restaurant was for the elite of the elites.

"What is he up to? Why did he want to meet me here?" Yang Zi thought, walking gracefully into the restaurant.

"Welcome Madam, this way please," the restaurant host said as if he was waiting for her arrival. Yang Zi stylishly glanced at the interior designs of the restaurant. All the huge beautiful chandeliers were covered in diamonds making them glimmers as they lit up the restaurant. The restaurant was a three storey building. The decorations and texture of each floor were different. Yang Zi could only guess that they decorated each floor according to how wealthy their customers were. Yang Zi thought she had seen it all until they got to the third floor. It was like paradise. 

"Miss, this is your booked room. Your partner will arrive shortly," the host informed her, opening the door for her. Yang Zi hesitated from entering the room. She got suspicious about everything that was happening. "Why did you Chen want to talk to me here? There are so many restaurants out there, but why did he choose this paradise of a restaurant? And why did it seem like the guy at the front desk recognised me at first glance," Yang Zi thought, not moving an inch.

"Miss this way, please," the guy ushered her in when he saw her hesitating. Yang Zi hesitated yet again. "Yang Zi, what are you so afraid of? Enter the room," Yang Zi thought elegantly, walking into the bright VIP room. The room was huge and beautiful. They were about four large couches in the room. What surprised her most was that the couches were white. The rose flower designed on it gave the couch an exquisite feel.

"Was the couches and everything in this room originally white and red? Maybe I am just being overly sensitive about everything," Yang Zi thought gently sitting down on a couch. Yang Zi sat down and waited for Chen to arrive. She checked her wristwatch at every interval.

"Why isn't he here yet?" Yang Zi mumbled impatiently after waiting for over ten minutes in the room. She stood up and walked to the door when there was no sign that Chen would come again. The moment she stretched forth her hand to open the door, someone standing outside pulled the door. Her mouth dropped open when she saw who it was.

"You!" They both exclaimed in total bewilderment. "What the hell are you doing here?" Yang Zi asked, having no thoughts of letting Yifeng in before she started questioning him.

"I should ask you the same question. Why are you here?" Yifeng said, signalling her to let him in.

"Oh! Sorry about that," Yang Zi replied, stepping out of the way.

"On a serious note, what are you doing here?" Yang Zi asked curiously when they were both seated.

"What about you? What brought you here?" Yifeng asked, not answering her question. 

"I asked first, so it is only right you answer me first," Yang Zi replied sternly. She wasn't surprised to see Yifeng keep avoiding her gazes.

"Chen told me to meet him here. He said he had a very important thing he wanted to disclose to me," Yifeng replied nonchalantly as he crossed his legs. His white pants complimented Yang Zi's white shoes and belt.

"Really? He also told me the same thing," Yang Zi said, confused. "If he called the both of us here, then where is he?" Yang Zi asked inquisitively.

"Don't you get why he called the both of us to this fancy restaurant?" Yifeng threw curious glances at her.

"No, I don't. If you know the reason then why don't you tell me?" Yang Zi said, staring at him even though he wasn't staring at her. Yifeng turned to gaze at her. His stares filled with disbelief.

"Why are you so ignorant? You are so intelligent, yet you don't know why Chen made this arrangement? I am baffled," Yifeng shook his head in disbelief, his gaze still on her.

"Since you are such a genius then why don't you tell the foolish me why your brother gathered the both of us here? I will be very glad if you can enlighten me about this," Yang Zi said angrily, bringing her face closer to his face. Yifeng froze at the spot. Her actions were sudden, he didn't expect her to get so close to him.

"Silly you, it is so obvious that he is trying to pair us together or don't you know that?" Yifeng asked, shifting further away from her.

"Pair us together? I don't understand what you said so can you elaborate on it?" Yang Zi asked, grasping the opportunity Chen has given her with both hands.

"Stop playing dumb because I know you understood everything I said," Yifeng said looking away.

"I am serious. I don't understand what you meant by he is trying to pair us together. Please tell me what it means, hmm," Yang Zi said, trying to adopt Yang Mi's spoilt technique. She silently prayed it worked on Yifeng. Yifeng held himself back from laughing at all costs when he saw Yang Zi's cute expression. He was surprised to see this side of hers. He could not help but think that maybe Jin was right about him settling things with Yang Zi. Ignoring her wasn't doing him any good, instead it was drifting the both of them apart.

"Seeing that you are going to play dumb until the end then let me tell you in a simpler sentence what Chen's actions signifies," Yifeng said pulling her by the waist closer.

"He wants us to be lovers," he whispered into her ears, instantly letting go of her. He sat up straight and put on an indifferent expression as if nothing happened. After satisfying her curiosity, he stood up and made to leave.

"What do you think you are doing?" Yang Zi asked, standing up.

"I am leaving as you can see," Yifeng replied indifferently as he turned to walk away yet again, but Yang Zi held his left wrist. He wanted to test her.

"I know you don't want to be together in the same space with me, but let's just eat here like Chen wants. Let's not allow all his efforts and resources to go to waste," Yang Zi said calmly, still holding onto his wrist. The moment she stopped talking, the lights went off.

"What the f*ck is going on here?" Yang Zi cursed loudly. She didn't even finish speaking before shimmering lights lit up the entire room. The light was red and white. Glittering lights in the form of hearts shone on the wall and on the centre of the table. It was such a wonderful sight to behold.

"Wow!" Yang Zi exclaimed in awe, slowly turning around to have a view of every part of the wall.

"You see what I am talking about. He made a lot of arrangements just to make sure we have the best Valentine's experience so lets not dashed his hopes, Ok?" Yang Zi said, refusing to let go.

"I have heard you so please will you let go of me?" Yifeng asked, glancing at the wrist she was still holding onto. Yang Zi let go when she saw that he had changed his mind.

"How did Chen even come up with this idea?" Yang Zi asked rhetorically, still gawking at the beautiful decorations. "This is fabulous."

Yifeng stared at her as though he wasn't. Although he wasn't the one who prepared everything, he was happy that she genuinely liked the surprise Chen gave them. At first he had thought about spanking Chen for pulling a prank on him and Yang Zi, but right now he changed his mind. He was going to reward him instead for the perfect Valentine's day surprise gift he gave to him and Yang Zi .

Li Chen who was standing outside the restaurant resting his back against the car pulled out his phone and texted someone.

"Mission accomplished, a total success," he smiled as he put his phone back in his trousers pockets. He entered the car and sat down majestically.
