Chapter 236 - What About Your Party?

"The sickness wasn't serious, that is why I did not see the need to disturb you, and how can you bear to scold a sick person?" Yang Zi asked, her hands still on his face.

"If I could, I would have done that a long time ago. I wouldn't have waited until this day," Yifeng said, touching her forehead to check her temperature.

"I know my Feng wouldn't be so heartless to scold Wifey when she is ill," Yang Zi said, forcing on a smile.

"Let me take you to the hospital," Yifeng said, lifting her off the chair before she could reply.

"What about your party?" Yang Zi asked in astonishment.

"Since you are unwell, I will just cancel the party...,"

"Cancel the party, which is in about two hours? You aren't serious about this right?" Yang Zi asked, grabbing her handbag from her desk before Yifeng walked towards the exit with her in his arms.

"You don't expect me to leave you all alone in this state because of a mere birthday party, do you?" Yifeng said halting. He turned and stared at her displeased expression.

"Feng, you have looked forward to this day for so long so, why do you want to call off the birthday party at the last minute just because of me...,"

"You are more important than the birthday party. I only agreed to throw a party because you suggested it so, what is the entire essence of the party if you are not there with me?" Yifeng asked, in a mellowed tone as he resumed walking again.

"I know I brought up the idea of you throwing a party on your birthday and that is why I will feel so sad and guilty for ruining your birthday party if you cancel it now," Yang Zi said soberly.

"This day was specially created for your sake. I want to see you extremely happy today so, won't you grant me this one wish by attending the party?" Yang Zi asked, touching his face.

Yifeng waited for the elevator to open. When the elevator finally opened, he instantly entered it, acting as though he did not hear Yang Zi's words.

"Will you deny me this request when I am asking so sincerely?" Yang Zi asked, stroking his face.

"Why are you talking so much when you said you are ill? Don't you know that you are exhausting your energy by speaking so much?" Yifeng asked, staring Yang Zi who is still his arms.

"You are the one making me a talkative. You are to be blamed if my sickness gets worse," Yang Zi said, still caressing his face.

"You should have guessed what my reply is when I didn't say a word. You know I can't say no to you," Yifeng said, stepping down from the elevator when it stopped at the ground floor. He headed towards the parking lounge afterwards.

"You should have said so instead of expecting me to guess your thoughts. I wouldn't have talked so much if you had said that you have agreed to grant my request," Yang Zi said smiling.

"Stop talking already! You are draining your energy by talking...,"

"I will go home alone," Yang Zi blurted when Yifeng carried her towards where he parked his car.

"What? But...,"

"I can manage just fine. You go home and get prepared for the party. I can drive myself home," Yang Zi insisted, coming down from his body.

"How are you going to manage at home alone? Who is going to get you changed, heat the food for you and attend to all your needs? You should at least let me take you home so I can help you do all these things before I leave for the party," Yifeng said, in a worried tone.

"You don't have to worry about me. I can do just fine alone. Instead of worrying about me, all that should be on your mind should be how to welcome all your guests. Don't keep them waiting, Ok," Yang Zi said, patting his chest playfully.

"You are sure you are going to be fine alone?" Yifeng asked in a doubtful tone.

"Yes, that is why you shouldn't worry about me," Yang Zi said, smiling just to reassure him that she can take care of herself.

"Ok, take care of yourself. I will be back soon and don't forget, I will get very furious if your illness worsens when I come back," Yifeng warned seriously. He kissed her for two minutes. Yifeng gave her a warm hug before he escorted her to the car. He only left when her car was out of sight.

Two hours later, in a well-decorated grand hall, Yifeng could be seen going around welcoming his guests. He spent over thirty minutes of his time greeting his guests.

"Feng, what about Zi Er? Why did she not come with you?" Su Jin dressed in a sky blue coloured blazer asked when Yifeng was all alone.

"She isn't coming," Yifeng relayed with a tint of sadness and disappointment noticeable in his tone.

"She isn't coming? How is that possible when she is the one who organised everything?" Su Jin asked, still in disbelief. From his expression, one could tell how disappointed he was to receive the news of Yang Zi's absence.

"She fell ill earlier. I wanted to stay by her side and take care of her, but she insisted I should attend the party. You know I can't say no to her," Yifeng said, his once joyful expression turning sad.

"There is no need to be sad about this. I am sure Zi Er wouldn't want to see you sad today," Su Jin said, tapping his shoulders. He felt sad that Zi Er couldn't make it to the party she worked so hard to organise, but he knew that Yifeng must feel twice as sad since Yang Zi was his woman after all. Today is all about his buddy, so he hated seeing him sad.

"You are right. She said earlier that she will feel twice sad if she sees me sad so I should feel happy so I won't make her sad," Yifeng said, his gloomy expression brightening up immediately.

Just then Chairman Li who never informed Li Yifeng that he was attending the party entered the hall in the company with his personal assistant.

"Look at who we have here!" Su Jin remarked, signalling for Yifeng to turn around to face the entrance.
