YM778.TV Chapter 38 - CEO Li's Younger Brother
"Zhixiang please don\'t leave me. I beg you. A life without you will be filled with so much pain and emptiness, so don\'t leave me." The struggling Yang Zi begged, shedding tears from her eyes. Seeing her best friend cry while saying these painful words in her sleep, Shui Shui\'s hatred for that bastard Zhou Yixian and his now deceased cohorts increased. Her best friend wouldn\'t have suffered like this for the past eight years if it were not for them. She hated them for turning her friend into who she is today.
Shui Shui gently wiped the tears falling from her eyes. The struggling Yang Zi instantly sat up after she woke up. She was covered in sweat because of the intensity of her nightmares. Shui Shui just gave her a warm hug to soothe her pain without asking her questions. She became a bit relaxed after some minutes. Yang Zi knew that waking up meant there was no sleeping again till daybreak.
"Shui Shui, I am alright, you don\'t have to stay awake till morning because of me. I am perfectly fine so you can go back to sleep," Yang Zi uttered, faking a smile. Shui Shui suggested that she accompany her through the night. That is why she said those words.
"Zi Er, if you are worrying about me then I am fine. I don\'t mind staying awake to keep you company," Shui Shui replied, not willing to listen to her words. They continued arguing until Yang Zi finally convinced her she was alright. Watching her best friend sleep, Yang Zi slowly crawled out of bed. After showering and changing into different clothes, she went to the sitting room with her spare sketchbook she always kept in their drawer inside the room. She sat down on one couch with legs crossed and her back resting on the couch before she started drawing. She painted for three hours before she called off. The last two dresses she drew were that of a child. She smiled satisfactorily when she saw how perfect the design came out. She kept the sketchbook on the table, stretched her body before finding her way to the kitchen. At 8:00 am, she set the dining table.
"Good morning darling," Yang Zi greeted, smiling immediately when she saw Shui Shui at the door.
"Morning girl. Zi Er, have I ever told you that you will make an excellent wife? I\'m afraid that you might make me fat at this rate," Shui Shui exaggerated, smiling happily.
"Today makes it the hundredth times you have told me that and getting fat is not a bad thing, your fans will still like you even though you become fat and so will Shiyi too or is that not true Shiyi?" Yang Zi questioned playfully as she winked at Shiyi who just surfaced.
"Don\'t you dare get fat Shui Shui or you will look hideous," Shiyi replied before he quickly found his way into the room. Shui Shui and Shiyi continued bickering at each other as they ate, Yang Zi just laughed at their jokes, not daring to take sides. The three of them sat down in the sitting room and relaxed after their meal.
Yang Zi got a call from an unknown number at exactly 11:00 am. At first she did not want to pick the call, but Shui Shui and Shiyi urged her to do so.
"Hello Miss Yang, please I want to talk to my brother so can you hand over the phone to him? I have been trying to reach him but his line is not going through so I had to collect your number from my Grandpa\'s butler. I want to talk to him, it\'s urgent," a boy said over the phone. The three of them all exchanged surprised glances when they heard the boy\'s words. Yang Zi had purposely put it on loudspeaker so they could listen to their conversation.
"Hey kid, I can see you know me but who are you? And who exactly is your brother? I can\'t seem to understand a word you\'\'ve just said so introduce yourself first then I will see how I might help you," Yang Zi answered meekly.
"I am Li Chen, Li Yifeng\'s younger brother," Li Chen replied firmly.
