BXBX NOVEL Chapter 247 - Wow! You Rejected Him?
Yang Zi came back a few minutes later with a white paper box tied with a red ribbon.
"My birthday gift for you," Yang Zi said, handing him the white box before she sat down beside him.
"I thought your birthday gift was inviting world's best painter Mr Weiting to my birthday party, I never knew that you had another gift for me," Yifeng said, not opening the box instantly.
"You told me once that your biggest dream as a painter was to meet Mr Weiting. You said you admired him and all his works so since he was a good friend of mine I invited him over. When I made the request to Mr Weiting, it never crossed my mind that he would agree to my request, I was dumbfounded when he agreed to show up at the party without any hesitation," Yang Zi said, smiling at him.
"He is a friend of yours? Why didn't you say so, and how did both of you become friends?" Yifeng asked, staring at her anxiously.
"I met him four years ago when I returned to Keelung country. I remember vividly that he was being chased by some fierce-looking men when he bumped into me. Seeing that the young man was in trouble, I couldn't just walk away, so I helped him. He was very grateful to me so to show his appreciation. We agreed to eat out for three consecutive times. He even asked me to be his girlfriend on our last meeting but I turned him down...,"
"Wow! You rejected him? That is so unbelievable," Yifeng exclaimed in surprise.
"He only revealed his identity to me after I rejected him. And Feng would you have preferred if I agreed to be his girlfriend? If I had done that, I would have long become his wife...,"
"No, I wanted to say you did a glorious thing by rejecting him," Yifeng interrupted her sharply.
"Yeah, you should be proud of me for turning down his request because if I had been his girlfriend there was a huge possibility that we wouldn't have crossed paths in this lifetime," Yang Zi said, wrapping her two hands around his waist. She also rested her head on his shoulders.
"Thank you so much for inviting him over, I felt so extremely happy and fulfilled when he shook my hands. Although he is just a few years older than me, it was my longtime dream to meet him. Do you know why I really wanted to meet him?" Yifeng asked, stroking her hair.
"Why?" Yang Zi asked with calmness in her voice.
"Because he is everything my mum and dad dreamed of in me. Their biggest wish for me was to see me excel in paintings and drawings, but I couldn't meet up to their expectations. Instead of a famous painter like they always dreamt of, I became a renowned CEO," Yifeng said sounding sad.
"Feng, you don't have to feel sad because wherever your mum and dad are, I am sure they must be very proud of you and what you have become. I am certain you have exceeded their expectations so, they must be extremely happy up there," Yang Zi patting his back. They stayed in each other's embrace for two minutes before Yang Zi abruptly pulled out of his embrace, acting as though she recalled something.
"Feng, you haven't opened my gift yet," Yang Zi reminded, pointing at the box on his laps.
"Oh yeah, I was supposed to open it, right?" Yifeng remarked, staring at the beautiful box on his lap.
I wonder what is inside this box that Zi Er is so eager for me to open.
Yifeng thought, staring at the box suspiciously before he dragged the ribbon. After pulling off the ribbon, he gently opened the box. He moved to part the white wrapping paper to see the content of the box. Yifeng gawked when he got a full glimpse of the blue glittering suit.
"This is spectacular!" Yifeng exclaimed in amazement as he removed the suit from the box to inspect it.
"M!" Yifeng exclaimed, turning to stare at her. This single remark of his stunned Yang Zi to the marrow. Thinking that Yifeng realised her identity, she subconsciously held her breath.
"How... how...," Yifeng was too surprised and happy to utter a word. Because of how shocked he was, the words refused to form.
"How did you do it?" Yifeng asked, still not getting over the excitement and shock.
"How did I do what?" Yang Zi asked nervously, trying so hard to look composed.
"This is M's latest design, it is a limited edition item, the only one in this universe. I am just curious how you could get your hands on it. According to the news, I learned it was specifically made for a very prominent figure," Yifeng said, staring at her for answers.
Oh, my gosh! So that is what he meant? He almost gave me a heart attack.
Yang Zi thought, holding her pounding chest.
"Under the comment section on M's Instagram page on the suits post, I wrote a comment about my desire of buying and presenting it as a gift to my boyfriend who is her number one fan on his birthday, I guess I just got lucky that she saw my comment out of the million comments under the suit post," Yang Zi lied anxiously.
"You got lucky? How is that even possible?" Yifeng asked, not believing a word she said.
"You don't believe me, right? I can show you my comment and her reply if you think I am lying," Yang Zi said, trying to stand up from the bed, but Yifeng quickly prevented her from doing so.
"Zi Er, I believe you. I was too happy and surprised that is why I overreacted," Yifeng said hugging her.
"Thank you so much for all the amazing gifts. I could never wish for more than this," Yifeng said, giving soft kisses to her exposed collarbone.
"Oh, I almost forgot about it," Yang Zi said immediately unwrapping Yifeng's arms around her body. She went to the dressing table, opened the first drawer and removed a small white box from it. As she walked back to the bed, she hid the small box behind her back.
