When Zhao Lifei walked towards the busy streets ready to hail down a cab, a hand suddenly grabbed her. She turned around, ready to tell Yang Feng off, but then she noticed his abnormally pale skin. Cold beads of sweat gathered on his forehead and his eyes were unfocused. "Hey, are you alright?" She nervously asked him, allowing him to lean towards her frail stature. Zhao Lifei nearly tripped over her own feet as she tried to support his muscular build. Yang Feng didn’t respond, instead, he buried…

After having their meal together, Zhao Lifei was prepared to leave. This time, she would not be persuaded to stay any longer. She didn’t want to remain in the office to discuss the proposal. "Grandfather, I hope you don’t break our promise." She reminded him, picking up her purse. Zhao Moyao smiled at his doubtful granddaughter. The promise was that she wouldn’t be dragged back into the office for at least 3 days after any consultation work. She was his top consultant, and despite how good she…

Seeing his granddaughter’s accusing glare, Zhao Moyao lightly laughed. "Release my granddaughter, Yang Feng." His expression was amused, but his tone served as a clear warning. He wouldn’t be taking no as an answer. Yang Feng actually respected Zhao Moyao a lot, even before he had ever met Zhao Lifei. He knew the man’s military background very well. He enlisted into the army at a very young age and made a name for himself as a reputable Major General. Zhao Moyao held an esteemed position in many…

Yang Feng watched Zhao Lifei give her opinion and berate the incompetent presenters for their proposal that dared to swindle the Zhao Corporation out of hundreds of millions. Seeing her strong aura, her fierce unwavering gaze targeting powerful men that were twice her age, Yang Feng was surprised to discover another side to her. It made him realize why Zhao Moyao cherished that feisty little woman. She wasn’t afraid to speak her mind and point out their flaws. Her eye for seeing through…

The next day, Zhao Lifei received a text from her grandfather requesting her to go to his office. After getting dressed and skipping breakfast, she made her way to Zhao Corporation. She stepped out of the public cab, dressed in a professional attire suitable for an executive meeting. When the wind blew, she immediately regretted the decision to do so. Her coat wasn’t enough to cover the skin exposed by her pencil skirt. Not wanting to be in the cold any longer, she hurried into the lobby. In her…

"Yang Feng, my granddaughter is very precious to me." Zhao Moyao finally spoke up after a very long silence. His heart felt heavy when he thought back to the image of a lifeless Xiao Fei, whose eyes were so blank, it scared him. Yang Feng felt the weight of Zhao Moyao’s words. The man rarely acknowledged or cared for his kin and for him to do so, he should be very attached to them. But Yang Feng was oblivious to what Zhao Moyao was implying. "I know. I won’t do anything to her. I will only send…

"You should try and be more subtle about secretly inching away from me." Yang Feng spoke up, tilting his head to see Zhao Lifei’s entire body curled up on the opposite side of the car. She was sitting so close to the window, he was surprised she hadn’t thought of jumping out of it already. After walking out of the hospital, Yang Feng didn’t allow her to take a taxi. It was potentially dangerous to take taxis because of their unverified background. For all she knew, she could’ve been riding…

"It’s not impolite if the gift came with the right intentions." He retorted, crossing his arms. Why was she so stubborn? Didn’t women like receiving gifts? Especially ones that were expensive and classy? Zhao Lifei blinked at his words. "Why are you so nice to me? I thought you hated me." Her words surprised Yang Feng who also felt confused. She was right. Why was he so nice to her? The thought confused him. "I don’t hate you." For once, Zhao Lifei didn’t know what to say. She stared at…

After reassuring her grandfather that she was fine and her condition has stabilized, Zhao Lifei ended the call. She was completely unaware of the fact that her grandfather was on his way to the hospital. When a nurse came to replace the IV drip, Zhao Lifei stopped her. Luckily, Yang Feng had left her ward so he couldn’t do anything about it. "Can I get discharged from the hospital right now?" Zhao Lifei asked the nurse with a polite smile. As beautiful and enormous as this room was, Zhao Lifei…

When Yang Feng went outside to take a business call, Zhao Lifei had just finished her food. She grabbed her phone and her eyes bulged when she saw the amount of missed calls from her grandfather and Yang Ruqin. She gulped nervously. Her grandfather wasn’t a simple man. He probably thought she had been kidnapped and murdered by Zheng Tianyi. His private sources would surely have told him about what happened, especially the wine incident at the banquet. Zhao Lifei took a deep breath and called her…
