"I know you we didn't come here to discuss like friends do but knowing your temper very well, I know you will need at least a glass of juice or coffee to cool down your anger," Mr Zhao said, placing his order. What further annoyed Mrs Yang was the fact that he placed an order for her despite saying she was against this.

"I came here to tell you I don't like the way you have been stalking me. My eldest daughter has become very uneasy with the black tinted car that is always parked in front of our Mansion. In fact, two weeks ago, she wanted to challenge the fool who dared to park his car there and monitor all our moves. You should be glad I stopped her because I can't even imagine what she would have done to you," Mrs Yang said seriously.

​​

"You stopped her for my sake? This is great. I have always known that a day will come that you will feel my sincerity, I am so happy I didn't give up on you," Mr Zhao said smiling.

"Do you think I stopped her because I care about you?" Mrs Yang snarled.

"I stopped her from confronting you because I was so sure she wouldn't have hesitated to bury a bullet in that thick skull of yours. You don't know how much my darling daughter hate your guts and that of your entire life after learning about what you and your wife did in the past. I prevented her from killing you because I didn't want my beloved Yang Zi to spend her life in jail because of a scum like you," Mrs Yang said harshly.

Mrs Yang recalled just how scared the usual observant Mi Er was when she noticed that the tinted car had been parked there for over a week. What further terrified her was when she saw a scary-looking man coming out of the car. Mrs Yang had exhausted her brain cells trying to come up with lies to assure the smart girl that everything was alright.

"You told her about our relationship in the past?" Mr Zhao asked, looking surprised.

"Relationship? Did we ever have a relationship in the past? How come I don't recall having a relationship with you?" Mrs Yang asked coldly.

What Mrs Yang and Mr Zhao did not know was that a suspicious man hiding just beside the counter area was taking pictures of them together.

"Mr Zhao, the message I came here to pass to you is to stay away from me and my family. If you dare as much as try to kidnap my baby just one more time, I promise I will not hesitate to send you to the king of Hades," Mrs Yang threatened coldly.

"Kidnap your daughter?" Mr Zhao asked, looking very surprised to hear her accused him of something he never did.

"Although I feel jealous that you gave him a beautiful daughter, I wouldn't dare to harm her. Do you know why I wouldn't dare to touch a hair on her body?" Mr Zhao asked seriously.

"Because I know she is your everything. You are only living for her sake. Do you know what kind of excruciating pain I went through in the past when I thought you were dead?" Mr Zhao asked.

The mere thought of the past made his chest tighten. He had starved himself and resort to drinking every day just to ease his pain. For about a year he wasn't himself, he was like a living corpse, living like he wasn't living. It took him up to two years to finally get over her death. He was the happiest man on earth when his men showed him a picture of the woman who had the same name and even the same appearance as his beloved Chunling. Since the day he confirmed she was the one, he always watched her from a distance. Sitting down and talking with her over a cup of coffee after so many years of no contact was a dream come true for him.

"I know you won't hesitate to kill yourself if something terrible happens to that little girl of yours. That is why I never went close to her. I don't want to lose you for real for the second time, that is why I would never harm her," Mr Zhao said seriously. From his expression, Mrs Yang could see that he was telling the truth.

If he isn't the one who tried to kidnap my Mi Er, then who did?

Mrs Yang thought in confusion.

"It is good that you know I love my two daughters more than my life itself. I will kill you and kill myself also if you dare as much as try to harm them," Mrs Yang said sternly.

"I know you aren't telling a lie," Mr Zhao replied as he sipped the cup of coffee.

"As I said earlier, stay away from my daughters if you don't want me to do something nasty," Mrs Yang said, as she stood up with her handbag in her hand.

"Aren't you going to at least take a sip from the coffee?" Mr Zhao asked.

"I can see you are a fan of coffee, so how about you drink it to your fill? You can also drink mine if yours isn't enough," Mrs Yang said before she walked to the counter. The moment she finished paying the bill, she left the cafe.

Later that night, Yang Zi who just finished taking her bath dropped the white towel she used to dry her hair on the bed immediately her phone rang. Before she picked the call, she made sure that Yifeng wasn't listening to her phone call.

"How is the situation out there? Is the preparation still perfect like you told me earlier?" Yang Zi asked, her eyes focused on the bathroom door.

"Yes, everything is set. I am just waiting for your order. I will execute our plan the moment you say the word," A guy's voice said over the other end. A devilish smirk appeared on his handsome face as he spoke.

"What are you waiting for, let the show begin," Yang Zi said, smiling delightedly. Her smile instantly vanished the moment Yifeng stepped out of the bedroom with only a towel tied around his waist. His wet upper body was left bare. Yang Zi gulped hard at the sight of his well-toned abs.

"He looks so delicious," Yang Zi murmured, licking her lips hungrily.

"What are you saying?" The guy asked, confused at the last comment she made.
