“Oh! So you are Li Chen,” Yang Zi exclaimed after recalling that the almighty CEO Li had a little brother. “I am sorry, but I don’t think you will be able to speak to CEO Li right now. He is in a very important meeting and he specifically warned me not to disturb him so you will have to call back some other time,” Yang Zi lied, taking her friends by surprise. She did not want to make the boy worried by telling him that his brother was shot and so on.

“What? But I really need him to come to school right now,” Li Chen said with a mixture of surprise and disappointment. ​​

“What happened? I bet I might be able to help you if I know exactly why you want your brother to come over to your school,” Yang Zi replied politely.

“That…,” Li Chen stammered, not knowing whether it was right for him to tell her what happened.

“You don’t have to be shy or uncomfortable. I will do all I can to help you out but before I do that you will have to tell me what the problem is first or don’t you think so, Li Chen?”, Yang Zi asked reassuringly.

“Ok, I got into a fight with a few boys who were bullying several girls who were preparing for some special event for our upcoming Christmas party but unfortunately our teacher caught us. He said our parents or guardian must come to school right now. I tried to tell him that my brother was busy, but he won’t listen. I don’t want to disturb grandpa about this, but brother Yifeng’s line is not going through no matter how many times I try. I really need him to come to school right now or they will suspend me for two weeks for daring to disturb the peace of the school,” Li Chen narrated his ordeal sadly. Yang Zi thought for a minute before she replied.

“Fighting for girls who can’t defend themselves against those bullies is an excellent thing. You definitely did the right thing, but Li Chen, I don’t think your brother will make it. The meeting might take a while before it ends,” Yang Zi added softly. Li Chen’s expression instantly fell at the other side of the line when he heard her words. He was too sad to speak.

“What do you say if I come to your school in the place of your brother?” Yang Zi asked, sounding so cool. She surprised both of her friends again with her answer. Shui Shui stared at her disapprovingly.

“What? That will be great. Thank you so much, Miss Yang, you saved me,” Li Chen thanked excitedly as he jumped up happily in the air.

“You’re welcome. Inform your teacher that I will be there in twenty minutes. See you when I get to your school,” Yang Zi said. She disconnected the call after she heard the boy’s reply.

“Zi Er, what were you thinking when you agreed to go to that boy’s school? His brother is the one who had you followed, don’t forget that,” Shui Shui warned displeased after Yang Zi had ended the call.

“Shui Shui, he needs my help so I just can’t sit and do nothing about it. Besides, he isn’t the one who wronged me, but his brother. You know I will never turn my back on those who need my help so please, let me just help the poor kid out, Okay? Just think about it. Would you have been able to reject Yang Mi if she were to ask for your help, even when we were on bad terms?” Yang Zi asked, trying to persuade her.

“Of course not, how can I ever reject that adorable kid? I love her too much to ever reject helping her,” Shui Shui replied quickly.

“That is my point here, I have got to help him, okay and sorry girl I will have to use your red sports car,” Yang Zi mentioned before she rushed up the stairs.

“She really has a heart of gold, don’t you think so?” Shiyi asked, staring at Yang Zi’s departing figure.

“Yeah, you are right. She has always been this way since our days in high school. It was her kindness and sense of justice that brought her across our way,” Shui Shui commented, smiling before she went back to playing with her phone. Immediately Yang Zi left and Shiyi also left too. He went to the office to see the ongoing project his company had embarked on. Shui Shui also left when her manager called to tell her they postponed the shooting scene that should have been filmed the next day to today.

“Miss Yang, you were really cool inside there. Do you know that I almost burst into a deafening laughter when you left our teacher speechless with your words?” Li Chen who was just fourteen years old affirmed smiling happily.

“Are you always this friendly? We have just met about an hour ago and you have become this friendly,” Yang Zi asked as Li Chen accompanied her to where her car was parked.

“No, I am not always this friendly. I am being friendly because I admire you. You are not only pretty, but also very kind. Not everyone would have been bold enough to leave the office without my brother’s permission. You went out of your way to help me when you barely knew me so this means you are kind hearted or am I wrong?” Li Chen questioned her curiously. They both stopped at the same time to stare at each other.

“Admitting that I am pretty when we have just met for the first time means that you have eyes for wonderful things but Li Chen, not everyone you think is kind is kind. Be wary of those you trust. You should be more like your brother who does not easily trust everyone he comes across with but heed my warning don’t be a stuck up like him because girls hate guys who are like that,” Yang Zi said as she opened the door of her car.

“Miss Yang, you don’t have to worry, My Grandpa taught me to be wary of those I come across because some humans are wolves in sheep’s clothing. And I am not a stuck up like my elder brother, like you said. I will be more careful when I meet people for the first time,” Li Chen said, smiling charmingly.

“Ok, I can see that you are a very intelligent boy. Send my regards to your Grandpa when you get back home, tell him I will make out some time to visit him soon,” Yang Zi said as she fastened her seatbelt.

“Does that mean that you don’t like brother Yifeng?” Li Chen suddenly threw the question at her without a prior warning.

“I beg your pardon!” Yang Zi exclaimed in surprise.
