Chapter 96 - Blabbermouth Yuan Quan
"Shiyi, thank you so much. I saw today's news. You uploaded his dubious acts just like I instructed, even when I was so ill. I knew I could always count on you and Shui Shui. I will always love you guys, and I missed both of you more than I thought I would. I am happy I could hold you like this again. For the first time in my life, I was so scared yesterday, but I am grateful I am alive and well. Take care of yourself," Yang Zi said as she gave Shiyi a tight hug. While she was busy fighting for her life last night, Shiyi did not fail her. He completed the mission she assigned to him with perfection.
"Zi Er, I am sorry we were not there to give you the emotional support you needed last night but there is no need for you to be afraid anymore. The storm is over, you are back in good shape. We should be grateful for that. Don't forget to call Shui Shui to tell her you are back. You know how she is, she won't let the matter slide just like that if you do not inform her about your early return," Shiyi warned before he entered the backseat.
"Mum said she promised to visit Mi Er after her filming shoot is over so I will give her the biggest surprise of her life then. My return will be my surprise gift to her," Yang Zi said, smiling naughtily.
"She will love it. See you soon," Shiyi said before he beckoned his driver to get going. Yang Zi went back into the hospital after Shiyi left. She went to the ward Yifeng was sleeping earlier to check up on him, but she was surprised when she didn't see him there. The nurse in charge of taking care of him later informed her they moved him to a VIP room in the hospital.
.....
Back in the resort, everyone was alarmed when they did not see the CEO's car, which was always parked outside. What made them panicked more was when they did not see any sign of Yifeng or Yang Zi in the resort. Even Su Jin who went to check up on them when he woke up was in shock when he did not see both of them. All their belongings were still in the resort, which meant that they didn't leave. The rumours that Yifeng and Yang Zi were kidnapped last night when everyone was fast asleep spread like wildfire among Yifeng's employees. They didn't know how the rumours spread but before Su Jin realised what was going on the rumours had already circulated. Because of the issue at hand, Su Jin postponed their departure day to the next day. He wanted to report them as a missing person, but he later thought it was rather rash of him to do so. He decided to wait a bit more before he reported the case to the police.

QUEEN CITY
Yifeng woke up four hours later feeling much better. His only condition for agreeing to be admitted in the hospital was that Yang Zi should stay with him until he falls asleep. It wasn't a surprise to him when he did not see Yang Zi in the room. It was when he turned his gaze to his right-hand side that he saw Yuan Quan sitting down on the couch with his legs crossed, playing with his phone.
"Why are you here instead of Yang Zi?" Yifeng asked slowly, sitting up. He wasn't glad to see Yuan Quan there. He was irritated to see him in his hospital room. Yuan Quan rushed to his side when he realised that he was awake.
"Boss, you are awake. Thank goodness, I was so worried about you when I learnt that you were down with a serious fever to the point that you had to be admitted," Yuan Quan said elatedly.
"Why are you so loquacious? Answer my question first before you blab, hmm," Yifeng spoke short-living Yuan Quan's happiness.
"Sorry about that, I was just happy to see you awake and boss was Miss Yang here? Isn't she supposed to be in the resort?" Yuan Quan questioned, forgetting that his boss was already pissed off.
"Do you expect me to answer that question of yours? And why are you even here? Where were you when I needed you only to appear now when you are of no use to me?" Yifeng uttered coldly trying to remove the IV pin, but unfortunately for him, the nurse entered at that moment.
"Mister, you are not supposed to remove it without the doctor's permission. The doctor clearly stated that you needed to rest," The nurse prohibited him from doing as willed.
"Do I need anyone's permission to do what I want? Or do doctors now force patients to take medications when they don't want to?" Yifeng asked his gaze on the spot the nurse was holding onto.
"Mister, even though you don't want to get treated, do it for your girlfriend who has been so worried about you. She came to check up on you twice before the Mister here arrived," The nurse tried to persuade him. She did not need to be told twice to let go of his hand when he saw his icy gaze on the hand she was holding onto. Yifeng instantly calmed down when he learned that Yang Zi was there to check up on him.
"Boss, you have a girlfriend? Who is she? Or is Miss Zhao back already," Yuan Quan asked innocently when he heard the nurse mentioned his boss's girlfriend.
"She was here? When did she say she will be back again?" Yifeng asked. His harsh tone was now calm and composed. He acted as though he did not hear Yuan Quan's question.
"She should be here soon, I guess," the nurse replied. She moved to examine Yifeng's condition.
"She will be here at any moment from now?" Yifeng repeated. He turned to gaze at Yuan Quan as though he remembered something.
"If she will be here soon, that means she shouldn't see you here or she will stop visiting me," Yifeng said, thinking about how Yang Zi will react if she saw Yuan Quan there.
".....," Yuan Quan was speechless.
