YM778.TV Chapter 120 - Waiting For The Doctors
"Boss, I am sorry but I have to take the rest of the day off," Yang Zi said, turning to leave but Yifeng held her hand.
"Yang Zi, what is going on? Your silence is keeping me in suspense so say something," Yifeng replied, refusing to let go of her hand.
"Boss, I don\'t have a second to waste right now. Someone really needs my presence in the hospital. Although I hate the thought of having to pretend to care about that jerk I still have to go there for her sake because she really needs a friend. All her friends deserted her except me, so I have to be there for her. I am sorry," Yang Zi explained, quickly removing her car keys from her bag. She wriggled out of his hold and headed to her car.
"What is it again, boss?" Yang Zi snapped at him when Yifeng prevented her from entering the car. She hated Yixian\'s guts despite the fact that he had apologised, but her sincerity towards Jingxian was genuine. Although she didn\'t know what happened. What she knew was that Jingxian needed her in the hospital.
"Ok, I am sorry for stopping you but let me take you there. I am sure we will get there faster than you would if I drive you there, so let\'s go, hmm?" Yifeng said, pulling her by the hand. After they put on their seatbelt, he instantly drove out of the parking space.
"Yuan Quan, have our men find out what happened to Zhou Yixian. I want an answer in five minutes," Yifeng ordered as he continued to drive at top speed.
"Boss, I think I have the answers to what you want to know," Yuan Quan replied, waiting for his boss to give him the permission to speak.
"If you do, then what the heck are you waiting for?" Yifeng shouted at him angrily. "Why is boss getting mad at me? Am I not the one that should be mad for what he did instead of the other way around?" Yuan Quan thought, fuming, but he dare not voice out his displeasure.
"Boss, after the court found CEO Zhou guilty of all the charges ranging from rape, murder, fraud, money laundering...,"
"Get to the damn point and stop beating around the bush?" Yifeng shouted, losing his cool. Whatever happened to Zhou Yixian was not his f*cking business, but he wanted to know the details of what happened so he could relay it to Yang Zi.
"The court sentenced him to life imprisonment with hard labour. On their way, transporting him to the prison. An enormous truck ran into the van CEO Zhou was in. The car is in a state of ruin and CEO Zhou was badly injured. They rushed him to Queen City\'s biggest hospital. But I doubt whether he will survive because the prison officers who were inside the van are all dead. Boss if you want to know more, the news is all over the internet so you can check there for more details," Yuan Quan narrated confidently thinking Yifeng will compliment him for a job well done but he got the shock of his life when Yifeng instantly cut the call on him.
"Yang Zi, you heard all he said right, so you can relax now," Yifeng said as he heaved a sigh of relief. "In fact, I think you should jubilating because this is what you have always wanted, right?" Yifeng asked momentarily, taking his gaze off the road.
"Yeah, I guess you are right. I am sure the heavens think my punishment to him and his father was too light for all they did, so they decided to personally pass a judgment on him. They gave him a befitting punishment for what he did to her," Yang Zi said, smiling. She totally forgot that she was in denial the entire time. "They were so mad at me for going easy on them. They will be overjoyed right now. We will surely celebrate when we get to our place," Yang Zi mumbled, smiling. She completely forgot that she was not alone in the car.
"They? Who are they?" Yifeng asked, stealing a quick glance at her.
"Did you hear me say something?" Yang Zi quickly played the dumb game when she realised that Yifeng was there all along.
"Yeah, you just say they will be overjoyed right now? You said some other words before and after that, but those are not important right now? All I want to know are the people you were referring to. Are they your accomplices?" Yifeng asked, even quoting some of her words to show that he heard all she said.
"I don\'t recall saying those. Maybe you were just imagining me saying things," Yang Zi continued pretending. She quickly faced her front, not wanting to speak with him but Yifeng did not let it pass.
"Ok, I can see you don\'t want to talk to me but can I ask you something? What do I have to do to make you trust me and depend on me?" Yifeng asked, reducing the speed at which he was driving.
"Trust you? Earning my trust might take you a lifetime to accomplish it. Trust is not just earned overnight and so is love? The feeling of dependency and love develops through a series of events. You can\'t just force your feelings on me, it is despicable of you to do that," Yang Zi said emotionlessly. Her words deeply hurt Yifeng. "I just thought you should know," Yang Zi added nonchalantly. Her nonchalant behaviour hurt Yifeng even more.
He knew he was being a fool. Even though he didn\'t know, he was told several times, so he got to know but he still continued in his foolishness hoping one day Yang Zi would look his way but he could see through her behaviour that his wishes will never come true. At that moment, everything his Grandpa told him last night echoed in his head. "Do you think the Yang Zi who has been working for you for over five months now will come to like you because of this?"
"You are very wrong if you think Yang Zi will love you because of your constant pestering. I will just suggest you give it up on her now and focus on your relationship with Zhao Liying."
"Maybe Grandpa was right all along. Yang Zi will never come to love me even though I give her the universe in exchange for her love," Yifeng thought dejectedly, taking one last gaze at her.
From that moment onwards, Yifeng did not spare Yang Zi a glance. When they got to the front of the hospital. He just parked the car in front of the vast hospital and quietly waited for her to step down.
"Thank you for the ride, boss," Yang Zi said expecting to hear Yifeng\'s reply and also see him step out of the car and suggest following her inside but he didn\'t utter a word. He just stared into space as if he did not hear what she said.
"So unlike his usual talkative self. Is he Ok?" Yang Zi who was now a few steps away from him turned around to glance at him. She found his behaviour weird, but she didn\'t think too much about it.
Immediately the nurse at the counter gave her directions. She did not have any difficulty in locating her way around since she was familiar with so many areas in the hospital. The doctors who came in contact with her when Mi Er was admitted in the hospital all recognised her. They greeted her warmly. Since she was in a hurry, she did not have much time to chat with them.
"Thank goodness you are here," The sobbing Jingxian ran to hug her when she sighted her. She continued weeping in Yang Zi\'s embrace. The way she acted showed that she desperately needed a hug. Not just any other hug but one which gave her warmth and a sense of guarantee that everything will be fine.
"Jingxian don\'t cry anymore. I saw what happened on the news. I wept all the way here," Yang Zi lied, quickly faking tears. Mrs Zhou was too busy weeping over her son to care about Yang Zi.
"I know you are in so much pain, but so am I," Yang Zi said, patting her back. "Although we are in pain, we have to be strong for my love. He needs us right now. He needs our prayers, not our tears," Yang Zi coaxed, still sobbing.
"Lets all pray for his ultimate victory, huh," Yang Zi said.
"Please honey, nothing must happen to you hmm," Yang Zi said loudly, still faking her tears. Her tears were fake, but the fact remains that she hated seeing innocent Jingxian weep over that jerk. She could not blame her because, after all, Zhou Yixian was her brother. Nothing could change that fact.
"Mum, please don\'t cry anymore, I am certain that my honey will come outside here perfectly, Ok? Just have faith, Ok," Yang Zi said, hugging Yixian\'s mother. Her constant sweet words made Mrs Zhou feel a bit reassured.
