Chapter 56 - Yifeng Made A Grand Entry To The Resort

"Wow! You know me? Here, I was thinking you didn't know who I was," Su Jin commented with humour in an attempt to make her laugh but her expression remained as icy as it was when he started speaking to her. "Is he playing with me or what? Why wouldn't I know that he is that jerk's only friend," Yang Zi thought, frowning at the guy's question.

"Of course, I do. I wouldn't have deserved to be addressed as an employee of BEST Enterprises if I didn't know who our handsome and smart director is," Yang Zi flattered. The expression on her face shows she wanted the conversation to end quickly. ​​

"I am flattered you think of me in this manner. It's nice to finally meet you Miss Yang. I have heard so much about you," Su Jin phrased politely, stretching out his hand for a handshake. Yang Zi did not like the idea of getting close to her mean Boss friend. She stared at his outstretched hand contemplating whether to shake his hands or not. She reluctantly shook his hand when she saw people staring at them. After the handshake, Yang Zi was very sure that director Su would keep on asking her questions so she brought out her earpiece from her handbag, plunged it into her ears, rested her back against the seat and shut her eyes immediately. Those who saw her in this position will assume she was sleeping but Su Jin knew very well that she was just putting on an act to evade speaking to him.

Su Jin quietly stared at her for some minutes before he grabbed a magazine from his bag and started reading it to keep himself busy. Those who were so overly excited about the trip who were so unlucky to be in the same bus with director Su did not have the guts to do as willed. They just gossiped in low tones in fear that they might disturb him.

Their journey lasted for three hours. Those who dozed off were woken up by those who were still awake when the bus came to a halt. Everyone yawned and stretched their stiff body when they came out of the bus. They could not resist the urge to admire the beautiful resort which houses about five buildings. The resort was such a beautiful sight to behold. The resort was big and spacious. Different types of flowers decorated the unoccupied areas.

As everyone mingled, Yang Zi tried to get herself familiar with the foreign environment. She found the resort beautiful like everyone else. Ater admiring the beautiful scenery before her, she dragged her luggages with her and turned to walk away. The moment she turned to approach the entrance of one of the building, the screeching sound of the tyre of a car which drove at top speed halted some distance beside her.

Everyone's mood dampened the moment they saw their CEO majestically step out of the car, one foot at a time like some famous celebrity. With his blue blazers on and black sunglasses to compliment his well styled dark-brown hair. He resembled a K-pop star that just stepped on the red carpets in a very big event. All the ladies except Yang Zi almost got blown away by this rare species of beauty. Yang Zi's once calm expression turned sour when she saw him. Even Su Jin was dumbstruck by his friend's sudden arrival. It didn't take long for him to realize the reason why his best friend drove like a crazy man over there. He knew it was because of his sweet little secretary, Yang Zi.

Su Jin's gaze shifted to Yang Zi when he saw his friend staring passionately at the lady who wasn't even looking at him. All his employees immediately swamped him to greet him with fake smiles on their faces. Yang Zi quickly seized that opportunity and dragged her luggage away. She did not want to speak to him. No, she was too pissed off to even look at his face.

Yifeng who saw her walking away instantly made his way towards her after assigning someone to offload his luggages from his car. Yifeng finally caught up to her when she entered the house.

"Yang Zi, what's wrong? You look upset, is everything alright?" Yifeng asked, pretending as if he did not know why she acted that way.

"It's Miss Yang not Yang Zi? And I am perfectly alright Boss so you don't have to worry," Yang Zi disclosed, avoiding his stares.

"If you say so but Yang Zi didn't you tell me that you were not coming on this trip so how come you are here?" Yifeng asked. He refused to correct himself even after she sternly corrected him. "Do you think I would have come if I knew that you would come too?" Yang Zi thought frowning.

"The same question implies to you too boss. I thought you vehemently told me you were not coming so what changed your mind?" Yang Zi said, staring into his black eyes. Her eyes speak how she truly felt at the moment.

"I asked first so it is only right you answer my question first before I answer yours so let me hear your answer," Yifeng said, feeling skeptical about telling her that she was the reason he drove all the way there. He was too engrossed in his conversation with her to notice that they were both wearing matching clothes.

"Ouch!" Yang Zi exclaimed, faking a pained look as she let go of her luggages and held her right wrist.

"Yang Zi, what is the problem? Are you Ok?" Yifeng asked with a worried look visible on his face as he quickly grabbed hold of her hands.

"Boss, as you can see, I have been holding onto these luggages for a long time. My wrist hurt badly, so will you be kind enough to let me find a safe place to put my stuffs before you start questioning me? And thank you for worrying about me. I will take my leave now," Yang Zi stated as she quickly slipped away.

Yang Zi was really uncomfortable with the way her boss was treating her. It feels good to be loved and cared for but she knew very well that she can never handle such feelings. She wasn't going to gamble with her feelings. She would rather treat him coldly and be labelled as an heartless lady rather give her heart to him.

Yang Zi found her way to the third floor and locked herself in one of the rooms out of fear that Yifeng or his friend might find their way up there. She only came out when they announced that it was time for lunch. When she got to the dining hall downstairs, she saw that lunch was already served and that almost everyone already took their respective seat. She wasn't surprised when she saw that they spared a seat for her.

"Miss Yang, we spared a seat for you here so come and join us," Mrs Wang, the team leader of sales department beckoned her as she pointed at the empty seat. As Yang Zi walked to her seat she scrutinized the whole area in search of Yifeng. She heaved a sigh of relief when she did not see him anywhere in the dining hall.

"Thank you," Yang Zi responded as she pulled out her seat to sit down but someone's voice stopped her.

"Miss Yang will be sitting down with us," Yifeng, who just entered the hall announced sternly. There was dead silence in the hall when they heard Yifeng's voice. Those who were talking or laughing immediately shut up. Yang Zi clenched her fingers into a fist as she turned around to follow him. "Does he derive pleasure in making life difficult for me? I really wish we could just go back to our normal hate relationship instead of this weird one we are having now?" Yang Zi imagined as she glared daggers at his moving figure.
