Chapter 393 - Yang Zi Finally Made Up With Chen
"Mum... Mum... I...," Yang Mi stammered. Panic could be read all over her.
"Mum, I can explain what happened," Yang Mi finally found her voice, but fear could still be seen on her face.
"Sister Zi Er, Mi Er did not do anything wrong.. She did not want to disobey your orders by being with me. I tricked her into entering my room because I have missed her. I apologise for my wrongdoing," Li Chen quickly took all the blame. Yang Mi shot him a fierce glance when she realised what he was trying to do.
"Chen Chen, what are you saying? You didn't trick me so why are you lying to mum?" The once fearful Yang Mi said in a scolding tone. She shifted her gaze back to Yang Zi once again.
Yang Zi just watched them not uttering a word. In fact, she never wanted to scold them but they misunderstood her.
"Mum, don't believe whatever he says. Chen Chen never tricked me but I followed him because I have missed talking to him. The fault is mine so please don't blame him. You can punish me," Yang Mi said firmly. She stared at Yang Zi as she eagerly waited for punishments.
"It has been two years of no contact but neither of you has changed. You both are still covering up for each other like you normally did. I am glad that my decision did not cause a strain in your relationship. I would have felt so terrible if you both had treated each other as strangers," Yang Zi said calmly, to the shock of the two friends who thought that Yang Zi would punish them. They both exchanged puzzled glances.
"Mum, does that mean you are not upset with us hanging out?" Yang Mi asked anxiously.
"You both are my naughty kids, I can't afford to get upset with you both even though I wanted to," Yang Zi said as she forced a smile. Despite still hating Yifeng, she knew that it was unfair if she continued keeping the kids apart when they love each other so much.
They both covered the gap separating them and Yang Zi. They embraced her tightly at the same time.
"Thank you so much for this, Sister Zi Er," Li Chen said, refusing to let go of Yang Zi. He missed talking to her so much. He had yearned so much to see this day and that it has finally come, he wished that nothing would snatch away this happiness from him.
"You are the best mum ever," Yang Mi said, her smile broadening even more.
"Mi Er is right. You are the best sister in this entire universe," Li Chen said with a huge sense of humour as he pulled out of her embrace. His remarks made Yang Zi chuckle.
"You naughty fellows have a way of pleasing someone with your words," Yang Zi said as she patted his hair.
"That is because I am a good teacher," Yang Mi said with pride. The way she acted made the others laugh.
Just then, Li Chen acted like he had recalled something.
"Sister Zi Er, you called me a kid earlier, I just want to correct you that I am not a kid. I am eighteen and a full-grown man," Li Chen tapped his biceps to show them what he meant.
"You might be eighteen years but you don't act your age. I am sure you must have allowed the naughty Mi Er to influence you that is why," Yang Zi said as she stared at his frowning face.
"But...,"
"Let's go, I am sure they must be all searching for us," Yang Zi held them by the hand and dragged them along with her.
Today was a very happy moment in everyone's life and the happiest of them all was Yang Mi and Li Chen.
"If this is a dream, I pray that I will never wake up," Li Chen lying on the bed with Yifeng beside him muttered before he closed his eyes.
The next day, everyone was awoken by the radiant early morning sun which shined in through the windows. Even the lowered curtails could not mask its brightness.
"What an amazing morning," Wang Yibo, who just woke up, muttered as he stretched his stiff body.
"This beautiful weather seems to be telling me that I should take Cutie Pie out on a date before we travel back. And that is exactly what I will do," Wang Yibo said, smiling radiantly. He hurried into the bathroom to freshen up so he could go ask Yang Zi out on a date.
After he freshened up and dressed in something simple but classic, he went straight to Yang Zi's room which was located not far away from his.
He knocked on the door and patiently waited for a response.
"YiYi, it's you," Yang Zi remarked as he entered her room.
The moment they sat down, Wang Yibo directly went to the point.
"Cutie Pie, the weather is quite pleasant, let's go out on a date," Wang Yibo said bluntly, without beating around the bush.
"I wish I could do that YiYi but I can't. I promised the two girls last night that I am gonna take them out today so I have to fulfil my promise to them," Yang Zi replied in a voice filled with regret.
"By two ladies, do you mean Shui Shui and that annoying guy's cousin, Wen Min?" Wang Yibo asked, sounding upset.
"No, I was referring to Mi Er and Xiaotian. Even before yesterday, I had once promised to take them out after the Fashion Week was over, I have to keep my promise or it will make them very sad if I suddenly cancel our outing," Yang Zi explained in a calm tone
"The kids can hang out with Shui Shui while we go out on a date. Shui Shui will take good care of them, that I am sure of," Wang Yibo said unwaveringly. He did not want this opportunity to pass him by just like that.
