Chapter 8 - I Will Say That To His F*cking Face
"Hmmm..... I will let you know when our plan succeeds. Ok? For now, I will only inform Zi Er about my plan," Shiyi said, arousing poor Shui Shui's curiosity more.
"Shiyi don't be petty and just tell me your plans. I might be able to assist Zi Er if you let me know your plan. So please tell me," Shui Shui said in a very cute manner as she shook Shiyi's hands pleadingly. Shiyi almost told her his plans when he saw how adorable she was, but he quickly held his lips with his right hand to prevent the words from slipping out. Yang Zi just kept quiet and watched them act so lovey-dovey. The truth is she would have mistaken them for a couple had she not known this pair for a long time.
"Are you guys dating?" The words escaped from Yang Zi's mouth before she could stop herself.
"What? Never," the two blurted out at once. The look on their faces showed that they were not pleased with Yang Zi's words.
"How could you say such a thing? Why would I date a guy like him? All he ever does is work at the office for six hours only to come back home and stares at the screen for hours. He is too weak and not my type of man. So don't you dare try to pair me up with him," Shui Shui snarled at him as she quickly turned away from him. Qing Shui and Shiyi enjoys bickering at one another, but they love each other very much. These two are inseparable, but they love making fun of each other.
"What is wrong with the both of us being a couple? I am handsome, tall, rich, and very talented with the computer. So what don't you like about me? Anyways, why bother, you are not my type either," Shiyi fired back at once.
"Am I the only one who has ever told you guys that you look good together? And Shui Shui, didn't Shiyi tell you that he has been learning martial arts from me for the past two years, so why are you implying that he is weak?" Yang Zi asked curiously before she threw Shiyi a questioning gaze when she saw the surprised look on Shui Shui's face but Shiyi immediately looked away.
"What? How is that even is impossible," Shui exclaimed in shock, turning to face Shiyi who had looked away from them.
"It's the truth Shui Shui," Yang Zi said affirmatively.
"How could you keep this a secret from me for so long? You should have told me this sooner then," Shui Shui said disappointedly as she threw a sharp gaze at Shiyi who avoided looking at her direction.
"I never knew that he didn't tell you about it. Shiyi personally made me promise him to keep it a secret from you so I didn't have any choice. Shiyi, how could you bear to keep this a secret from your little wife for so long? I really think you deserve a beating from your little wife," Yang Zi said naughtily as she tried to aggravate Shiyi's punishment. Shiyi quickly stood up from his chair and walked away when he saw that the ladies were ganging up on him. He knew that he didn't have a chance of winning against them.
"Let me see what Zhou Yixian is up to tonight. You guys are free to join me in our secret room if you are bored being by yourselves," Shiyi said as he walked away. The ladies just stared at his departing back with smiles on their faces when they saw how hard he was trying to evade the topic at hand. The three friends decided to spend the night there because they had missed spending time with each other. The next morning, Yang Zi was shocked when she woke up and realized that it was already 8:00am.
"Oh my gosh! I am late for work," Yang Zi screamed as she quickly scrambled to the bathroom to get ready. Shui Shui, who was sound asleep, woke up to Yang Zi screaming. She was dumbfounded when she saw Yang Zi resurface again with dripping wet hair.
"Zi Er, did you even take a bath? If I'm not mistaken, you weren't even in the bathroom for five minutes. Why are you out already and what is the rush? Why are you behaving as if you are being chased with a cane?" Shui Shui asked when she saw Yang Zi running about every corner of the room just to get prepared for work. The undeniable truth was that she would still get to work late no matter how much she rushed.
"Don't you know how strict that mean boss of mine is? Hell will be let loose if he gets to work before me. I can't believe that I overslept," Yang Zi said as she battled between combing her long black hair and putting on her shoe. Shui Shui, who has never seen her best friend in such a hurry before, was surprised to see how fast she was getting ready.
"Are you just gonna leave like that? What about breakfast? Just look at how unkempt you look. Let me help you to apply some makeup Ok?" Shui Shui said out of concern as she stood up from the bed and walked towards where Yang Zi was still struggling with her shoes.
"That is a very bad idea girl? He might really fire me if he saw that I had time to apply makeup when I was supposed to resume work before him. Don't worry about breakfast, I will grab something on my way to the office. I will call you guys when I get to the office, Ok?" Yang Zi said before she took to her heels. She didn't mind that she was running in high heels. Her only concern was getting to the office before her mean boss arrived. Shui Shui, who knew her friend best, quickly grabbed some snacks she had brought from her trips and raced out to catch up with her. She was so glad when she saw that Yang Zi had not driven out of the huge compound yet.
"Make sure you eat something alright? I will not hesitate to avenge my best friend if that crazy boss of yours dares to bully you again. You may be cautious around him since you are his employee, but I don't give a damn about his social status. Anyone who dared to pick on my Zi Er will definitely get double the dose from me regardless of who they are. It would be nice if you could relay my message to him," Shui Shui stated coldly as she put the snacks in Yang Zi's car.
"You can say that to his f*cking face when you see him and thanks for the snacks. Tell Shiyi that I left when he wakes up. Bye…", Yang Zi waved her hands at her before she zoomed off without waiting for Shui Shui's reply.
"I will definitely say that to his f*cking face when I see him," Shui Shui muttered to herself after Yang Zi left.
