Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

Back in the hall, after Yang Zi came back from the restroom, she went to sit beside Grandpa Li.

"Grandpa, how are you? How have you been? I heard from Li Yifeng that you are seriously ill and in dire need of surgery, is that true?" Yang Zi asked in a serious tone.

"Zi Er, I am the one who is supposed to ask you those questions. I haven't seen you in such a short time and I can see that you have lost a lot of weight...,"

"Grandpa, I am totally fine. There is something that we ladies hate, it is gaining weight and that is why I went on diet. My weight loss is because I went on diet so don't worry about me," Yang Zi lied to the old man, who knew that she was lying.

Only a child would believe the lies she came up with but not an old man like Grandpa Li who had experienced a lot of things in this vast world. From mere staring at her, he could see that she had a hard time getting over the death of her mother..

"Zi Er, I am indeed sick but after setting eyes on you and my great-granddaughter I feel much better...,"

"Grandpa, I am not a child that would fall for those words of yours. How could seeing us made you feel better when undergoing surgery is supposed to do that?" Yang Zi asked as she stared at Grandpa. Mere staring at him, she could see that he seemed to be in pain but was only pretending to be fine.

"And Grandpa if you were so seriously sick then why did you throw a party instead of being in the hospital to undergo treatment?" Yang Zi asked in a scolding manner.

"I was not supposed to talk about sad events today, but since you asked I will tell you why I insisted on having a party despite that my grandsons were against it," Grandpa Li said, as he adjusted on his seat to a more comfortable position.

"Well, I insisted on having the party and also seeing the two of you instead of undergoing surgery because the doctors said I have a 50-50 chance of surviving if I do the surgery. And this conclusion of theirs is as a result of my old age. Since there is a very big chance that I might not survive, I wanted to see you and my great-granddaughter before I closed my eyes for eternity," Grandpa Li relayed in a sad tone. For a minute Yang Zi was too shocked to speak. When Yifeng told her that his illness was serious she did not think up to this stage. Right now she couldn't believe that there was a chance that Grandpa Li might not make it out of the operation room alive.

"Grandpa, stop saying these sad words because I am sure that nothing is gonna happen to you. You have always been a fighter so I am sure that even though not for anyone or anything else, you will come out of the operation room alive for us your grandchildren and your great-granddaughter," Yang Zi said, as she placed her right hand on Grandpa Li's hand lying on the table.

"Zi Er, there is something I have always wanted to tell you but I always failed to do that each time I tried. I am afraid I might never get to say it again if I don't say it today," Grandpa Li said in a serious tone which got Yang Zi alarmed.

"Grandpa, what is it? You are getting me all scared. I hope it is not another sad news," Yang Zi asked, feeling very nervous.

"I have prepared a place we can talk comfortably so how about we talk there instead of here where anyone can just eavesdrop on our conversation," Grandpa Li said, as he attempted to stand up. Yang Zi quickly rushed to his aid when she saw that Grandpa Li was struggling to stand up.

"Let me help you, Grandpa, and feel free to lean on me," Yang Zi said as she let Grandpa Li hold onto her hand for support.

Seeing how Grandpa was acting mysterious, I guess whatever he wants to say is serious. I wonder what exactly he has to say.

Yang Zi thought as she followed Grandpa Li's lead. Yang Zi was not aware that someone had been monitoring them somewhere in the room. Seeing them leave, the person also secretly followed them.

Let's see whether I will be able to get anything to threaten her with. I want to see how she will have the gut to act up in front of me if I learn about one of her dirty secrets.

The person following them thought as she tried to keep up with their pace.

Inside a room whose walls were painted white, with different artistic portraits hanging on the walls, Yang Zi sat on the same couch with Grandpa Li. Her attention was centred on the old man who seemed to have a lot to say.

"Zi Er, I have always wanted to tell you something about your biological father that you might not have been aware of...,"

"You knew my biological dad? How?" Yang Zi asked curiously. She paid rapt attention to what Grandpa Li wanted to say.

"Yes, I also know your biological mum too. The two of them were good friends with my son and daughter-in-law. The four of them were just like siblings. They loved each other more than you can ever imagine," Grandpa Li said, to the surprise of Yang Zi. Seeing the curious look on her face, Grandpa Li went ahead to narrate everything he knew about her parents. At the end of his narration, Yang Zi was stunned.

"So my dad, was your son's butler and not only that but he ended up losing his life because he wanted to save Yifeng? How come I hadn't heard about such a thing before?" Yang Zi asked inquisitively.
