"I don't remember my boss ever having an appointment with you, so please can you state your mission here? I will be kind enough to relay your message to my boss," Yang Zi said, trying not to sound pissed. Even though the lady was her boss's acquaintance, how dare she try to barge into his office without her permission?

"I will pardon you for having the effrontery to obstruct my path since you are new here but I won't tolerate this insolent behaviour from you ever again," the mysterious lady stated coldly trying to push Yang Zi out of the way but Yang Zi did not budge. In terms of strength, she loses to Yang Zi.

​​

"I know I am not among the security agents, but I will be forced to throw you out of the office if you insist on barging into my boss' office,'' Yang Zi threatened. Despite the woman's impudent behaviour, she tried her best to stay cool-headed because she respected all her boss's guests. Their social status does not matter, but the thing she hates most are stubborn guests who think they must do whatever they so desire.

"Did you just say you will throw me out?" The lady asked with a mixture of shock and anger. This is the first time she has ever been insulted in this manner, and she will not let the matter slide.

"The exit is this way, please," Yang Zi said, faking a smile at her.

"I had planned to let the matter slide without making a fuss out of this issue, but I have changed my mind. I will make sure you cry home before today runs out," The lady threaten proudly. Her biggest mistake is that she thought she could have Yang Zi sacked just because Yang Zi politely told her to state her mission in the office.

"You will have me fired?" Yang Zi chuckled. The lady's words sounded hilarious to her.

"Do I look funny to you?" The lady asked, throwing a murderous glare at her. At that moment she felt like giving the lady a tight slap on her face.

"Miss, I am not ready to exchange words with you so please can you take your leave. I will be put in a precarious situation if my boss perhaps meets you here," Yang Zi said, staring at the lady who seemed so reluctant to leave. The expression on the lady's face showed she would not leave unless she met Yifeng.

"So Feng is around and you dare to prevent me from meeting him? Who gives you such right to treat me in this manner. Does Feng know that this is how you mistreat his visitor? I bet you won't still be here if he knew," the lady said intimidatingly.

"Miss, I don't know why we are still arguing about this. I have told you earlier, you must have an appointment with my boss before you can enter his office and I don't understand what you meant by mistreatment. Since your arrival here, I don't recall ever mistreating or insulting you. I politely informed you to leave, but you are the one who insisted on causing a scene here," Yang Zi said.

"Is threatening me what you call politeness?" The lady asked angrily. "I am certain you wouldn't be so gutsy to speak to me in this ill-manner if you know my identity. Ignorance is not an excuse. I will make sure you receive your due punishment," The lady threatened, thinking Yang Zi will begin shivering because of her threats.

"Identity and social status are worthless here. I treat all intruders in the same manner," Yang Zi said fearlessly. "Miss, use the exit, don't let me use force on you," Yang Zi said seriously. Her tone and gaze showed that she was done playing nice.

"I will leave but I promise, I will make sure you won't be here the next time I visit," The lady threatened before she turned to leave.

"How dare she threaten me? I might be a Secretary here but she has no right to look down on me?" Yang Zi mumbled angrily.

"I bet she must be one of his many women. I can't believe he went back on his words. I will get mad at Yifeng for daring to lie to me," Yang Zi said, smirking devilishly. "In terms of beauty and brains, I am certain I'm more beautiful and intelligent than her, so what attracted him to her. She is so saucy," Yang Zi said to the hearing of the lady. The lady walked back to where she was standing. She glared at Yang Zi in a way that could kill if glares could kill someone.

"Did you just call me a prostitute? How dare you?" The lady said furiously. She felt like strangling Yang Zi to death.

"You said so yourself, not me," Yang Zi said nonchalantly. She knew who the lady was, so she deliberately said those words to her hearing to piss her off. She was so fed up with her words of intimidation.

"This is not over, I promise you," the lady said before she stumped out of the office.

"This place is finally quiet once again," Yang Zi said, heaving a sigh of relief. She wanted to go back to work but she couldn't concentrate anymore so she abandoned her work. She was too angry to think straight.

At first, she did not recognise the mystery lady until she threatened her with her identity. "I won't let her take him away from me. Never," Yang Zi muttered angrily.

Su Jin who went to the second floor to get something immediately dialled Yifeng's line when she sighted the familiar figure of a lady at the ground floor.

"Feng, guess what? The psychopath is here," Su Jin exclaimed, staring at the furious-looking lady heading to the entrance of the building.

"Zhao Liying came to the office?" Yifeng questioned at the other end. His men had informed him yesterday about her arrival, but he never expected that she would drop by at the office so soon. What scared him most was the fact that she might've confronted Yang Zi, who didn't know about her existence.

"Not only that, she particularly adorned herself with the best designer clothes and accessories just to impress you, but I guess the surprise visit didn't go as planned. She left in a fit of rage. I bet she argued with Yang Zi," Su Jin said, smiling. For Zhao Liying to have left the building looking so furious, there is only one sentence to describe what ensued between them; she lost to Yang Zi.

"God damn it, Yang Zi will get mad at me. I shouldn't have left her in the office," Yifeng remarked, pretending as if he didn't hear Su Jin's comment.

"Don't tell me, you still haven't told her about the existence of your fiancee?" Su Jin asked in amazement. "You are so cruel, Feng," Su Jin said, disconnecting the call on him.

He couldn't believe that Yifeng still did not tell Yang Zi the truth, despite all his advice. In that instant, he vowed not to intercede for him if Yang Zi gets mad because of his lies.

Yifeng who was still in a meeting when Su Jin called him became so impatient after the phone call. "Gosh, I am so dead. I wish she won't cut off her offer because of this," Yifeng thought, his mind wandered far away from the meeting. The five people in the room noticed his lack of interest. They started fidgeting, thinking their proposal was not to his taste. The fate of their company lies in this presentation. Their company will definitely go bankrupt if CEO Li did not invest in it.

The meeting ended in another fifteen minutes. The representatives of the other company who assumed that their proposal wasn't up to his standards were delighted when Yifeng signed the contract.

"Thank you for the collaboration CEO Li," the Vice President of Ming's Corporation remarked, shaking Yifeng's hands.

"It was nice doing business with you. I look forward to seeing you again," absentmindedly Yifeng replied. He rejected the other party's invitation to lunch. After they wrapped the meeting up, he left right away with Yuan Quan.

The journey from the venue of the meeting to the company was a silent one. Yuan Quan and the driver could read anxiety over Yifeng's face.

Throughout their journey, he kept on staring at his phone as though he was waiting for a call from someone. Yuan Quan was curious, but he knew better not to utter a word seeing how moody his boss looked.

Immediately the driver parked the car in front of the tall glass building, Yifeng stepped down from the car without waiting for Yuan Quan to open the car's door for him. He left without even cross-checking if Yuan Quan was following him.

"This is the first time I have seen a boss like this. What the hell is chasing him? He is walking so unbelievably fast," amazed Yuan Quan thought, staring at his boss who was already inside the building at the moment.

"One thing I know for sure is that whatever must be chasing the almighty Li Yifeng is not ordinary," Yuan Quan mumbled as he carried his boss's tablet and the signed contract from the car. He hurried after him, but no matter how fast he walked, he could never meet his pace. Before he could reach him, the elevator had already closed. Yifeng patiently waited for the elevator to reach the fifth floor. When the elevator finally opened, he made his way to his office.
