Yibo called Fanxing in for dinner. Fei greeted him sweetly.

Fanxing smiled soothingly and happily.

After Zhan, Yibo and Fanxing had dinner, Fanxing took out the garbage. Yibo asked Fanxing to take Zhan home.

Zhan disagreed, “You’re weak now. You’re the one who needs to go back and rest. I’ll stay with Fei today.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Yibo didn’t want Fei to know what he had done and thus feel stressful or guilty. “Besides, she’s my daughter, and it’s natural for a father to save his child.”

“I understand how you feel about Fei, but you must listen to me and go home to rest.” Zhan insisted, “I don’t want Fei getting better while you get sick, so please don’t make me worry about you. I will feel comfortable here being with Fei if you go home and get some rest.”

“Mr. Wang, Mrs. Wang is right. You had your blood taken too much today, and you will have to go to work tomorrow. You can’t stay up all night here, or you will fall ill as well.” Fanxing tried to convince him.

“Daddy, go home and have a rest. Fei hopes you’re all right.” Fei also suggested, “If there is anything wrong with you, I will feel guilty. It’s fine to have mom staying with me.”

Yibo looked at the three people who were trying to persuade him and finally agreed.

“Well, you must have a good rest and get well quickly.” Yibo’ caressed her hair, feeling sorry for her.

He had something to deal with tomorrow, and he had to punish the employee who didn’t take good care of Fei.

“Dad, I’m all right.” Fei smiled happily.

She acted as usual. However, she knew that the anesthetic had passed and the wound on her forehead was beginning to hurt, but she didn’t want Yibo to worry.

Yibo looked down, kissed Fei on the forehead and backed away. “I’ll leaving now. Listen to mom.”

“Bye, daddy. Bye uncle Fanxing. Be careful.” And then she waved and smiled at them and sent them away.

After Yibo left, Fei stopped smiling and put her hand up to touch the gauze on the wound. Her little face wrinkled slightly.

“Don’t touch it.” Zhan raised his hand and took her hand down,”Does it hurt?”

“Not really, but a little…” Fei made a gesture with her little hand.

Zhan sat down in a chair and looked at his daughter. “You must be more careful in the future, or both dad and mom will feel distressed. I can’t bear to see you to suffer the pain…”

“Mom, don’t tell dad I’m in pain.” Fei held Zhan’s hand and felt sad. “Daddy gave me so much blood. Is he fine?”

“Dad is in good health. Of course he’ll be all right. The doctor said he would be all right as long as he takes more nutrient food, so don’t worry. Dad won’t worry if you get well soon.” Zhan held Fei’s hand back gently. “Go to sleep. Mom will be with you.”

Fei nodded, closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Zhan did not leave Fei’s bedside. He held Fei’s hand as he watched the drip run out and called the nurse for a needle.

Late at night, when he could not stand it any longer, he bent over the bed and went to sleep.

***

It was not until the dawn that Yibo came to the hospital.

He entered the ward gently and saw Zhan holding Fei’s hand all the time and never let go. The mother and daughter looked very beautiful even when they were sleeping.

Yibo put away the breakfast he had brought and then he bent down to hold Zhan. But as soon as he touched him, he opened his eyes.

“Why are you here so early?” Zhan rubbed his eyes and looked at Yibo.

“I always get up at this time, remember?” Yibo looked at the time. It was half past six.

Zhan nodded. He was still sleepy. He used to get up after seven o’ clock.

“I’ll carry you over to the couch and get some more sleep.” Yibo was about to hold him up.

Zhan raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder. “Stop it. I’ll wash my face.”

Yibo had to let go and watched him go to the bathroom.

Zhan ran the hot water, took a clean towel and washed his face. A pure face was shown in the mirror.

As he had a fair skin, he looked stunning and lustrous, he looked very beautiful.

Yibo walked in and looked at the delicate face, which was as beautiful as a white lotus flower, especially the mole under lips and eyes, which were so attractive.

Zhan also saw Yibo in the mirror.

Yibo came forward and put his hands on the wash-basin, trapping Zhan between him and the wash-basin, Yibo’s strong masculine aura filled the air.

Looking at Yibo’s handsome face and deep eyes, Zhan’s heart missed a beat.

“Thanks for the effort.” Yibo met others eyes in the mirror.

“All for the child. And thank you, too.” Zhan lifted his lips.

Yibo pressed over and kissed him on the cheek.

Zhan blushed. “It’s early in the morning,” he said, “restrain yourself.”

“I did.” Yibo’s arms wrapped around him. With a trace of regret and guilt in his tone, he said, “I want to take back the divorce agreement. Let’s live a good life.”

“Is it all up to you for whether to let go of me? I’ll have to think twice about whether to give it back to you.” Zhan pretended to be proud. In fact, he just didn’t want him to decide everything, especially something that would hurt him, “Mr. Wang, it depends on your performance.”

“I must let you satisfy.” Yibo turned Zhan around. He pressed his lips against others.

With one hand around Zhan’s soft waist and the other on the back of his head, Yibo gradually kissed him deeply, passionately and powerfully, so that Zhan could not resist, until Zhan forgot himself and was dominated by him….

It was not until Zhan felt the skin on his shoulders exposed to the cold air that he suddenly woke up and reached for the clothes on his shoulders.

Zhan flushed and stared at him, “This is Fei’s room. How could you do that?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted to see my performance?” Yibo answered with a raised eyebrow.

Zhan gritted his teeth and snapped, “I didn’t mean that!”

Yibo knew Zhan didn’t mean it, but he did it on purpose.

“But I think that should be part of it. I always have to prove that it doesn’t bother me after I did the blood drawing.” Yibo argued, “It’s important to make you happy.”

Zhan did not know how to answer him for a while, and then said, “Who fell over after a slight push yesterday?”

“After the rest of the night, I have been fully revived, so I’ll let you know I am not weak.” Yibo could always get to the point he wanted.

“Yes, yes, you are not weak, and you are very strong, all right?” Zhan admitted and praised him.

Zhan put up the towel and tried to leave the cramped bathroom. He was suffocated by others powerful aura.

Yibo leaned his long arm against the wall beside him, blocking Zhan’s way.

“Try it at the right time,” Yibo said.

“You are evil.” Zhan bit his lips and glared at him.

“I do it for your good.” Yibo’s smile was even more presumptuous.

Zhan reached out and pulled his hand away from the wall and gave him a push, and then walked past him out of the bathroom.

Yibo followed him, pulled him over to the sofa and sat down.

“I asked nanny to cook some porridge, and prepared some side dishes. Have some, Mrs. Wang.” Yibo opened the thermos bottle he had brought with him, took out the vegetables and put them on the table.

And then he got some porridge for Zhan, “Have some. It’s still warm.”

Zhan took the bowl and looked at Yibo. His heart was full of warmth. He took a mouthful of the porridge and asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Yes. There’s some in the thermos bottle. When Fei wakes up, ask her to have some breakfast.” Yibo sat down and looked at Zhan.

“How can I eat with you staring at me all the time?” Zhan felt a little shy when he saw Yibo looking at him all the time.

“Mrs. Wang is pretty and I want to watch you all the time.” Yibo was so sweet.

There was no person who didn’t like to hear his husband’s compliment of him, so Zhan was impressed.

“With your identity, what kind of beauty you have not seen.” Zhan snapped at him.

“Not interested at all.” Yibo reclined on the sofa.

Zhan stared at him suspiciously.

Yibo explained, “I have never been interested in anyone before you, so…”

He was telling the truth. Not only was he not interested in those women who were crazy about him, he would also find those women were annoyed.

“It is such an honor.” Zhan smiled and went on with his breakfast.

“So, Mrs. Wang should cherish Mr. Wang.” Yibo was not modest.

Zhan finished his breakfast and tidied it up. It was half past seven, and Fei still hadn’t woken up.

“Go to work now. I’ve already hired a nurse to take care of Fei.” Yibo tried to reassure him. “And there’s a nurse providing one-to-one service to Fei.”

It was almost 8 o’clock when Fei woke up. Seeing her parents there, she laughed happily.

“Good morning, mom, dad.”

“Good morning, baby.” Zhan wiped Fei’s face and fed her the porridge.

“Go to work, dad, mom. It’s safe here. You can rest assured.”

So, Zhan and Yibo left the hospital and went to work.

On the way to the office, Yibo called Fei’s kindergarten to ask for leave.

Zhan was relieved. Yibo reached for his hand and Zhan leaned on Yibo’s shoulder.

Zhan came to the company first and said goodbye to Yibo, who came to the company later.

***

Upon arrival, Yibo went directly to the president’s secretary office.

When all the employees in the huge office saw Yibo, they all stood up and said in chorus, “Good morning, Mr. Wang!”

“Who’s is Anavi_-_?” Yibo cut to the chase, with his eyes sweeping sharply across the room.

Yibo had a stern look between his eyes, and his powerful aura made everyone nervous.

“I… I am.” Anavi clasped her hands.

“I’ll give you a chance to explain what happened to Fei yesterday.” Yibo was not unkind.

“President I… When I went to the bathroom because of stomachache, I didn’t expect there would be an accident. I knew I am responsible for this, but I didn’t expect it to happen.” Anavi was afraid to look at Yibo.

“It’s all right if you need to go to the bathroom, but you should find someone else to take over your job. How much time is that going to take? Or will there be no one outside to take over?” Yibo held her to account. “That’s a five-year-old kid. She can’t be left alone, you know?”

“President, I… I know I was wrong. I’ll pay attention next time.” Anavi bit her lip.

“There’s no next time. You’re fired.” Yibo’s tone was indifferent.

Anavi looked at him in surprise for a moment. And then she said, “President, please give me another chance, I can’t afford to lose this job.”

“If Fei had not been resuscitated, it would have been more than a firing.” Yibo was unmoved. “Secretary RovenaNatasha, take her to get the salary paid and leave immediately.”

“Anavi, come on.” Rovena advised her.

“President, please give me a chance…” Anavi burst into tears.

“Why should I give you a chance? My chance is for the one who can handle things well, not you.” Yibo waved Anavi away as he was annoyed with her grieved look.

“President, you can’t be so cold-hearted, I worked hard. Besides, Miss Fei’s injury was an accident. You can’t blame me for all the mistakes. I refuse to take it!” Anavi had nothing to fear at the end of her rope.

“President, I have something to report.” said one of the secretaries.

Yibo looked at the comely girl and said, “Yes?”

“Anavi, don’t be so upset. Did you go to the bathroom because you had a stomachache or because you had to phone your boyfriend?”

Anavi’s face turned pale at the comely secretary’s remarks, but she retorted, “Kusum, don’t throw dirt at me!”

“I was not alone in the toilet. There was also the cleaner. President, you could ask the cleaner about the situation.” Kusum (xianxixian ) was not afraid of offending anyone.

Yibo’s eyes were filled with anger when he learned the truth.

“President, don’t listen to her… I didn’t. I mean, I did call, but not for long…” Anavi couldn’t hide it, so she had to admit it.

“Yes, an hour isn’t that long.” Kusum groaned softly.

Anavi pursed her lips, but she could not say anything.

“Very good.” Yibo nodded. “Anything else?”

“Miss Qiu and Miss Zoe came to your office half an hour after she went to the toilet. I don’t remember how long, but after they left you came back from your meeting, and then Miss Fei was injured…” Kusum said everything.

“How did you know they were here?” Yibo had no idea about it.

“Because I brought the coffee in.” said Kusum, “and I came out as soon as I served the coffee.”

“And what were the situations when you went in? Was Fei okay?” Yibo asked Kusum, a little nervously.

“Miss Fei was fine when I went in.” Kusum told all she knew.

“Did you hear them talk to each other, or say anything?” Yibo remembered how Zixuan and Fei had traded barbs when they first met in his office.

“No. I didn’t stay long in the office.” so she had no time to catch anything.

“Good.” Yibo thought he should ask Fei or Zixuan and Zoe in person. “If you think of anything else, just let me or Fanxing know.”

Yibo turned to leave, but then he stopped and looked at Kusum, “You have done well. You have a sense of justice, and you deserve a promotion and a pay raise. I want everyone to know that there are rewards and punishments. Trying to play tricks is not going to work.”

Yibo had his hand in the pocket and strode away.

“Thank you, President.” Kusum bowed at Yibo.

She didn’t expect that the chance had come. She was so delight!

The others were very envious of Kusum having this chance.

God always gave opportunities to people who were waiting for them

***

Yibo went back to the office, took care of some urgent things, and then went to the hospital.

Fei was having an intravenous drip right now. She was in bed, and the nurse was reading a children’s story book with her.

Fei saw Yibo coming and her eyes lit up, “Dad, aren’t you at work? What are you doing here? Are you worried about me? You don’t have to worry about me. I’m as good as gold and I’m not afraid of pain. Have you forgotten that I am a tough girl?”

Fei spoke in a row, which made Yibo laugh.

When the nurses saw Yibo was here, they all left the room, leaving the room for them.

Yibo strode over and sat down in a chair. “Yes, you look much better now, or there wouldn’t be so much talk.”

“Dad, you make fun of me.” Fei pursed her lips in disapproval.

“Fei, I have something to ask you. Be honest with me.” Yibo’s eyes meet Fei’s.

“Yes.” Fei nodded.

“Did anyone else come by while you were staying in my office yesterday?”

Fei paused for a second, then shook her head.

“Really?” Yibo asked her again.

“No one came by.” She lowered her eyes slightly, not looking directly into Yibo’s eyes.

“Fei, it’s not right to tell lies.” Yibo couldn’t understand that Fei didn’t like Zixuan, but she lied about not having seen her. “There are so many people in the company, there would be someone who saw them.”

Fei dropped her head even lower. “I’m sorry, dad. I lied. When I was in the office, aunt Qiu and your sister dropped by.”

“You’ve seen them, and you said you didn’t like the aunt. Why did you say you didn’t see them? Why lie?” Yibo frowned, but he said gently, “Can you tell dad why?”

“Dad… I…” Fei pressed her lips together and hesitated.

“Daddy wants to hear the truth. Daddy wants Fei to be an honest child.” Yibo’s big hands rested lightly on her small shoulders. “I hope I can be proud of my baby.”

Fei looked into Yibo’s deep, gentle eyes and nodded.

“I didn’t mean to lie. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to make it hard for you.” Fei was just trying to tell a white lie.

“Sometimes a white lie is a good one, but it’s also a lie, got it?” Yibo hoped Fei didn’t tell lies, even it was a white lie. “But why would it be hard for dad? Did they have anything to do with your injury? That’s why you kept it a secret?”

“Father, you are as clever as mother said. Nothing can hide from you.” Fei knew that she could not keep it a secret, so she told the whole story. “They were both your sisters, and I was hurt by them. It would have been very difficult for you to deal with the matter, so I hid it from you.”

“My baby is so kind. You indeed make me proud. But we don’t need to be generous and kind to those who hurt you. You’re a kid, and you just need to protect yourself.” Yibo looked at the wound on Fei’s forehead and could not calm down when he realized that it was caused by two adults.

“Dad, don’t blame them, I am also partly responsible for my injury.”

Fei held Yibo’s sleeve in her little hand and begged him, “I’m all right now. Just save the trouble.”

“Fei, there’s no excuse for a child making a mistake, let alone two adults. Everyone has to pay for what they did.” Yibo comforted Fei.

“But…”

“Are you afraid grandpa will know it?” Yibo guessed Fei’s mind. “Grandpa is old, but he knows the difference between right and wrong. You have nothing to worry about.”

“Dad, grandpa… He won’t like me, will he?” Fei was really scared.

“Why do you ask that?” Yibo saw the loss in Fei’s eyes. “Did they both say that?”

“Because I am not father’s real daughter, not the real child of the Wang family, my grandfather will not like me.” Fei felt sad. “I didn’t think it made any difference that I wasn’t your real daughter, but now how I wish I was your real daughter, the daughter by blood… I don’t want to be separated from dad. I love dad.”

“Daddy loves you, too.” Yibo held Fei in his arms. “You are daddy’s real daughter.”

“Daddy, you don’t need to lie to me. I know I’m not.” Fei’s eyes were red. “Mom said my real father has become a star in the sky.”

“Mom said that because he was angry with dad.” Yibo released her and gently wiped her tears, “It’s because daddy took five years to find you so that mommy was angry with daddy. If you’re not my daughter, how come we have the same blood type?”

Fei blinked, unable to believe things would be so nice, “Daddy, you just said that you can’t tell lies, even if it is a white lie.”

“Daddy’s not lying. Daddy’s telling the truth.” Yibo tried to convince her, “When did I ever lie to you?”

Fei shook her head. “No.”

“So don’t think about it anymore.”

Fei nodded obediently.

Yibo then said, “And this is a secret between you and me. Don’t tell mom.”

Fei nodded at whatever Yibo said.

“Well, daddy has some business to run, and I will come to see you when I have time.” Yibo kissed Fei on the forehead and stood up.

“Goodbye, dad. Be careful on the road.” Fei waved at Yibo.

When Yibo stepped out of Fei’s room, his handsome, fatherly face was replaced by a cold look, with no kindness at all. His eyes were so grim that people who passed by him would automatically shy away.

Yibo took the elevator to the lobby, then took out his cell phone and called Zixuan, “Zixuan, are you at the hotel with Zoe?”

“We… We’re not in the hotel.” Zixuan said, “What’s wrong, Brother Yibo?”

When Zoe, sitting beside Zixuan, heard that it was from Yibo, she felt nervous immediately.

“Where are you? Shouldn’t I treat you a dinner? I’m free at noon, so I’ll treat you to dinner.” Yibo said as he walked.

“Brother Yibo, Zoe has asked for a day off from school. She has to go back to school now. I have planned to stay in here for a few more days, but Zoe accompanied with me to come here, so I can’t let her go back alone.” Zixuan beat around the bush before she finally got to the point.

“We’ve got our tickets, and we’re on our way to the airport, going back to Beijing. You can treat me when you get back to Beijing.”

“Good.” Yibo ended the call with Zixuan.

As soon as he finished talking to Zixuan, Yibo called Fanxing, “Take someone to the airport right now and find Zixuan and Zoe. Whatever you do, don’t let them get on the plane and leave Chongqing. And don’t mention anything about Fei. Make sure you have a good reason to calm them down. I will be there soon, too.”

Fanxing accepted Yibo’s instructions and took actions immediately.

Yibo got in the car, drove away from the hospital and went to the airport.

***

Zoe was so nervous that she couldn’t even breathe, “Zixuan, why does my brother want to see you? It there anything wrong about Fei?”

“No, he just asked me if I was free for lunch,” Zixuan frowned, “Fei should have woken up, but Yibo didn’t say anything about you pushing Fei. Would Fei…”

“No, she won’t. If something happens to Fei, Yibo won’t sound so calm and has the mood to invite me to dinner. So, there’s only one possibility that Fei didn’t tell the truth, but why didn’t she? It won’t do her any good not telling the truth… I can’t figure it out.”

Zoe was also thinking about this problem, “Zixuan, Fei was injured yesterday when she hit the coffee table on her forehead, and there was so much blood… Would she get her brain hurt…?”

“Brain got hurt…” Zixuan repeated the words, her eyes suddenly brightening. “Would she have amnesia, so she couldn’t remember what happened yesterday? That’s why she didn’t tell Yibo the truth, so Yibo didn’t know about it.”

“That should be the case, otherwise why didn’t Brother know it? If he knew it, he would be very angry.” Zoe was most afraid of Yibo getting angry, because he looked so terrible when he was furious.

“I told you not to worry. You have booked the plane ticket, otherwise I will have a beautiful lunch with Brother Yibo in a romantic French restaurant at noon.” Zixuan felt pitiful. It was a dream she had been dreaming about for a long time.

“Miss Qiu, Miss Zhou, President Wang knows that you are leaving Chongqing, so he let me hasten to tell you that he wishes to see you off personally, President Wang is on his way. Just wait for him.” Fanxing persuaded them to stay as soon as he seen them.

If he couldn’t stop them from getting on the plane, he couldn’t get back to work.

“Is Brother Yibo really coming to see us off?” Zixuan smiled.

Yibo came to see her off in person when he was so busy, which proved that he had a place for her in the heart.

Zixuan thought that Yibo still cared about her. She really wanted to stay for a few more days. Now that she heard the good news, she wanted to stay even more.

Zoe reminded Zixuan, “Zixuan, the boarding announcement had reminded us to board several times. We need to go check in right now.”

However, Zoe, who had done something wrong to hurt Fei, was guilty, especially when she thought of meeting Yibo soon, she was even more flustered.

“Wait for a moment. Let me see my Brother Yibo for a second. Besides, you still have to wait after we check in.” Compared with Zoe’s anxiety, Zixuan was not in a hurry at all.

“Zixuan, come on. You’ll see brother every day when you go back to Beijing. It doesn’t matter whether you can see him now. Besides, I don’t know when Brother will arrive. What if we miss my flight?” Zoe urged Zixuan.

“If you miss this one, there will be another.” Zixuan curled her lips.

“But isn’t it a waste of money? That’s a first-class flight, which would cost a lot more money than the other classes.” Zoe felt it was such a waste of money.

“Zoe, you are the lady of the Wang family, but why do you care about the money? It would be ridiculous,” Zixuan held Zoe’s hand and said, “you should do what suits your status, Zoe, don’t act petty. This is not what the members of the Wang family should like.”

“Miss Zhou, don’t worry, if you miss this one, I’ll book the next one for you, President Wang will pay for it.” Fanxing said..

“But it will waste brother’s money…” Zoe didn’t want to see Yibo, at least not now.

Yibo walked up to them and said, “Thanks for saving me the money, Zoe.”

“Brother.”

“Brother Yibo.”

When the two girls saw Yibo, one looked scared, and the other was excited.

Yibo looked at them and said, “Zixuan, I promised to treat you to dinner. How could you leave without telling me in advance?”

“I don’t want to, but Zoe has to go to school.” Zixuan’s eyes were full of pity.

“I have asked Zoe’s head teacher for leave on her behalf.” Yibo already had everything ready, “so you don’t have to rush back,”

“Brother, I’m afraid my mother will beat me if she knows I skip class.” Zoe make an excuse.

“With me here, your mother won’t beat you.” Yibo tempted them again, “And I have a gift for you.”

“Really?” Zixuan was completely defenseless against Yibo’s kindness. She was a big fan of Yibo.

“Of course, come with me.” Yibo winked at Fanxing.

Fanxing took Zixuan’s luggage next to them and went ahead.

***

Yibo took them to the best French restaurant in Chongqing first and enjoyed a delicious lunch.

Yibo didn’t eat much, but he watched Zixuan and Zoe to have lunch.

Zixuan thought it was wonderful, “Brother Yibo, when are you going back to Beijing?”

“I will be back soon.” Yibo had a sip of water.

“We’ll meet every day when you go back.”

“Of course, I’m looking forward to it too.”

“Brother Yibo, taste this steak,” Zixuan said, smiling more pleasantly.

She picked up a small piece of steak and brought it to Yibo’s mouth.

“You have it. It is the taste you like.” Yibo graciously cut the steak in front of himself. “I have to finish mine.”

“Brother, don’t you know what Zixuan is thinking? Zixuan has loved you since she was a little girl. She had been sad for a long time when she knew you were married.” After drinking some red wine, Zoe gradually relaxed.

“I’m married and she’s my sister.”

“Brother, Zixuan doesn’t want to be your sister.” Zoe spoke up for Zixuan, “She has been waiting for you all these years. Don’t you have any feeling?”

“Zoe, stop.” Zixuan took the wine from the table and finished it.

“Come with me if you want to know.” Yibo dabbed at the corner of his lips with her napkin and stood up.

Zixuan and Zoe followed Yibo out of the French restaurant.

After getting in the car, the driver drove into an upscale neighborhood, where they stopped at the back mansion..

***

Yibo was in the front, Zixuan and Zoe followed. The mansion was completely furnished and very beautiful.

Zixuan admired the mansion and stepped into the spacious and bright living room, “Brother Yibo, what do you mean by bringing me here?”

“I’ve made it very clear.” Yibo walked over to a single couch and sat down.

“Brother, you don’t want Zixuan to be your mistress, do you?” Zoe was shocked.

Zixuan’s face was pale, but she didn’t say anything. She stared at Yibo’s handsome face, trying to hear what he said.

Zoe continued, “Brother, how can you treat Zixuan like this? She is the daughter of the Qiu family. There are so many excellent men who pursue Zixuan, but she only loves you.”

Yibo crossed his legs gracefully, and smiled a cold smile, and then her eyes froze, “So you can be so cruel to my daughter?”

That cold and arrogant attitude, that was the real Yibo!

“Brother Yibo, what are you talking about? We don’t understand!” Zixuan woke up to his strong, cold aura.

All his gentle treatment up to this point was just a play. He wanted to numb them. It was all false!

“Don’t you understand?” Yibo raised his eyebrows, “Paper can’t extinguish fire after all. Once it’s lit, it will only burn to ashes!”

“Brother Yibo, you have treated me. Thank you for your hospitality, Zoe and I should go now. See you in Beijing.” Zixuan managed to keep her composure and not be overwhelmed by his strong aura.

Zixuan took Zoe by the hand and led her away.

But four men in black stood in their way, making it impossible for them to pass at all.

“Brother Yibo, you won’t do this, right?”

“Brother, what are you doing?”

“How did Fei get hurt?” Yibo’s questioning tone came from behind them.

At the same time, Zoe clenched Zixuan’s hand lightly.

“You told me Fei was hurt,” Zixuan said slowly. “How would we know? Brother Yibo, you are asking the wrong person.”

“Zoe, tell me how Fei got hurt!” He shifted his focus.

“I… I don’t know. I don’t know anything.” Zoe denied it.

“Brother Yibo, I don’t understand why you brought us here and treated us like criminals when Fei is hurt.” Zixuan had to give up to leave. She turned to face Yibo. “Or did Fei say something to you?”

“You got into my office and had an argument with Fei, and Zoe pushed her over, and then Fei hit the coffee table! When you saw her in a coma, you didn’t tell anyone, nor did you call 120. You just walked away!” Yibo blamed them for their mistakes.

“Fei is just a 5-year-old kid. Even if she was hostile to Zixuan, she is just not sensible. And you pushed her down and then left her behind. It is intentional homicide! As the child’s father I have the right to sue you!”

“If not for the sake of the friendship between the Qiu family and the Wang family, not for the sake of us growing up together, I would not bring you here, but send you directly to the police station!”

Zixuan was not convinced with Yibo’s serious accusation and was angry. She was not scared, but Zoe was weak in the legs. “Brother, I… I didn’t kill her!”

Zixuan helped Zoe sit on the sofa and whispered, “Don’t listen to him. He doesn’t have any evidence! Sit here and don’t listen or say anything. Leave it to me.”

“Brother Yibo,” Zixuan said, approaching Yibo, “although I know little about law, you should give out evidence when you charge us. Words don’t constitute sound proof.”

“Zixuan, I’ll have the proof.” Yibo was confident, “I’m giving you the opportunity to tell the truth. But if you don’t want to tell me, that’s fine. I have plenty of time. You can stay here for a while and tell them anything you need.”

Yibo stood up, as tall and proud as a straight pine.

He sorted out his suit jacket lightly and started to leave.

“Brother Yibo, are you going to keep Zoe and me under house arrest?” Zixuan looked pale and clenched her fists.

“I just asked you to be a guest here. Don’t think too much about it.” Yibo looked back at her frozen face. “Zixuan, have a good time.”

“Brother Yibo, house arrest is also against the law.” Zixuan reminded him,

“Do you have any proof that you are under home arrest?” The smile in Yibo’s eyes was lukewarm, “and put your mobile phones and other communication devices on the table.”

“Brother Yibo, these are personal belongings. You have no right to do that.” Zixuan knew that Yibo was serious, and she was afraid.

“If you won’t give them out, then I’ll have to ask them to help.” Yibo swept at those several people in black and said, “Do you want them to force you?”

“Brother Yibo, we are not prisoners!” Zixuan was not willing to be obedient. If there was no mobile phone, how could she contact the outside world?

She needed to tell her father and Mr. Qiren about their situation as soon as possible. Now, only they could save her and Zoe.

“Don’t talk nonsense in front of me. There is nothing I can’t do in if I want to.” Yibo’s eyes were deep. “Zixuan, you’d better be good.”

“And what if I am not?”

“Then don’t blame me for being unkind.” Yibo chuckled, “They don’t know how to be gentle to girls.”

Yibo made a sign to the people in black. Two of them came forward and was about to make a body search.

“My father won’t let you go if you touch me.” Zixuan began to retreat when she saw them coming close.

But the men in black obviously did not listen to her, and continued to approach her step by step.

Zoe first took out the phone and gave it to them with terror, “Here… Here you are.”

She urged Zixuan, “Zixuan, give them the phone. It’s no use fighting against Brother.”

“Brother Yibo, how will you tell my father and your father what you have done to me?” Zixuan had never been treated like this all her life.

And the man who treated her like this was the one who cared about her and who she loved!

She could not tolerate him being so callous to her. She felt that her heart was crushed by him, and it was very painful.

“My girl almost… how do you explain to me for treating my daughter so coldly?”

Yibo’s heart ached at the thought of little Fei lying in a pool of blood. He couldn’t imagine that if he got back to the office a bit later, Fei’s blood would stain the carpet and she would bleed to death.

He could not forgive anyone who had tried to hurt Fei and get her killed even if the one was his once-beloved sister, for such a fault was like murder!

“If you can’t see your own faults, and can’t accept Fei, how can you say that you are my sisters, and expect me to love you as I did? Think about it yourself.”

He didn’t look at Zixuan or Zoe, but turned and strode away without a trace of affection.

Zixuan watched Yibo walking farther and farther away, deeply feeling that he was farther and farther away from her world, so far that she could no longer touch him and stay in his world.

“Brother Yibo, you can’t do this to me and Zoe!” Zixuan looked at Yibo as he disappeared in the doorway. What responded to her was the slamming of the door.

“Miss Qiu, please go back.” The men in black reminded her.

“Get out of here!” Zixuan vented her anger out on these people.

But they acted like they weren’t listening. Their job was to keep Zixuan and Zoe from leaving.

“Zixuan, if brother has made up his mind about something, no one can change…” Zoe pulled Zixuan back into the sofa.

The men in black, seeing them sitting quietly in the living room, disappeared as if they had never been there before.

Zixuan was miserable, her eyes stinging and red with tears.

“Zixuan, let’s be honest…” Zoe wanted to compromise.

Zoe was very clear about Yibo’s temper, because she had lived with him in the Wang family and knew his temperament very well.

He was indeed a heartless man, not just a rumor.

Zoe remembered that when Yibo first took office in Wang Group, he was only 25 years old that year. He was very young, but also very courageous.

However, some people always disagreed with him and thought that he was a member of the Wang family, and only with the protection of Qiren could he get this position. But more importantly, Qiren believed his son and knew that Yibo was excellent enough to take up this important task.

As soon as Yibo took office, he began to make drastic reforms. Some of his relatives were either transferred or fired, which aroused the opposition of some veteran officials who united with senior managers to fight against Yibo.

Was Yibo afraid? Surely not.

As for the top managers, Yibo wielded both the carrot and stick. A large part of the managers turned back, while some were kicked out.

By the end of the year, the considerable dividend payout Yibo gave them and Wang Group’s growing earnings had left them speechless.

Some regretful managers begged Yibo in the Wang family. Some even knelt down to beg Yibo because there was no other way out. But Yibo still refused to be swayed, and even drove them out without considering his father’s honor.

Yibo was someone who had big picture in mind, so he wasn’t worry about the details.

No one could change his rules. Under his leadership, Wang Group had become more brilliant than ever, which proved Yibo’s excellent ability and business acumen.

To some, he was a god, to others he was the Devil.

***

Yibo left Zixuan and Zoe in custody at the mansion for five days. This was the limit for Zixuan, who had never been confined to a house for so many days.

If she kept staying in this house, she would be driven crazy. She had asked Zoe to ask for Yibo from the men in black before, but the answer she got was that he was busy and unavailable, and he would come to see them when he was free.
