"Hey baby, what are you doing here?" Yang Zi asked as she caressed the little girl's face. She even pecked her too. Li Yifeng stood rooted to the ground when he saw what just happened. Even Yuan Quan could not believe what he just heard.
"Mum?" Li Yifeng blurted out in total bewilderment. You should have seen his expression when he repeated what the little girl said.
"Hello Mister, who are you? Are you my mum's Boss?" the little girl asked with her tiny voice. For a second Li Yifeng was too dumbfounded to answer the little girl's question, so Yuan Quan who regained his senses helped him out.
"Yes, he is Miss Yang's Boss and you are?" Yuan Quan questioned as he reduced his standard to that of the little girl so she would understand him. Taking a closer look at the beautiful girl who was still in her school uniform. Yuan Quan could not help but agree that the little girl whose hair was tied in a ponytail had a striking resemblance to Yang Zi. Apart from her chestnut brown eyes which is different from Yang Zi amethyst eyes, everything else about the both of them were similar.
"I am Yang Mi, what about you Mister?" Yang Mi asked Yuan Quan adorably.
"My name is Yuan Quan but you can call me Mister Yuan, I am Miss Yang's closest colleague in the office. You look so adorable Yang Mi," Yuan Quan answered as he smiled at her sweetly.
"That is because I take after my beautiful mummy. You are so nice. I am happy that you are my mum's friend since mum hardly makes friends in her workplace," Yang Mi replied, smiling cutely, totally ignoring Li Yifeng as she clasped Yang Zi's hand.
"Mi Er, why are you so naughty. Why did you visit me at my workplace? I would have visited you at home if you had told me you wanted to see me," Yang Zi whispered into Yang Mi's ears.
"Mum is terrible. Mum refused to visit Mi Er for the past four months. I missed you so much so I decided to come to you since mum did not want to visit Mi Er," Yang Mi said as her merry expression fell in disappointment.
"Mi Er stop being naughty or else you will put me into a tough spot here. Do you want me to get fired?" Yang Zi reprimanded the girl loudly. The silly girl burst into tears when Yang Zi reprimanded her. She refused to stop crying despite how much Yang Zi tried to coax her. Yang Zi was so amazed to see her six years old Mi Er crying when she only scolded her slightly.
"Mum does not care about Mi Er. She only cares about work," Yang Mi continued crying as she immediately let go of Yang Zi's hand. Yang Zi and Yuan Quan froze on the spot when she ran towards Li Yifeng. The tiny girl hugged Li Yifeng's right leg as she continued sobbing.
"Hey baby girl, stop crying hmmm? I will make sure your mum gets off work right now so she will take care of you so don't cry alright," Li Yifeng consoled softly as he patted the girl's hair in an attempt to make her stop crying.
"Wow! Mister is so nice, he treats Mi Er the best," Yang Mi immediately stopped crying when Li Yifeng assured her he would let Yang Zi accompany her home. She stretched her hand as a sign for Li Yifeng to lift her up. Yuan Quan and Yang Zi were once again speechless at how quick the little girl's mood switched.
"That is my girl," Li Yifeng said, smiling as he carried her up. The way he treated Yang Mi was as if he was familiar with treating children. Yang Zi could only assume that he was this way because he had a younger brother.
"Mister is the best," Yang Mi said happily as she pecked Li Yifeng on his cheeks. Anyone who entered that office at the moment would not have believed it if they told them that this little girl smiling was the one who sobbed some minutes ago.
"Mi Er come on now, let me take you downstairs. I will tell your driver to take you back home," Yang Zi said as she tried to carry her, but naughty Yang Mi refused to let go of Li Yifeng. She clung to his neck.
"Miss Yang, why are you so uncaring towards your own daughter? It's not like she did anything wrong, so why are you mad at her? Besides, it was your fault for not being a wonderful mother," Li Yifeng commented as he hugged the girl firmly.
"Who is the one who makes me work to the bones every day?" Yang Zi murmured to herself, but Li Yifeng heard her clearly.
"Are you talking to me?" Li Yifeng questioned sternly.
"Mister, please don't be mad at mum. She has been so good to Mi Er, it's just that she has so much work to do that is why she did not have time for Mi Er. Mum is a fantastic person and I hope that Mister will not treat her badly," Yang Mi said softly. Her words really touched Li Yifeng, although it did not show on his face. The little girl's words moved even Yuan Quan, who was watching the scene with keen interest. Although Yang Mi was six years old, she had the tendency of a four years old. She always behaved that way to make Yang Zi and her mummy happy.
"Don't worry, starting from today just for you, I won't treat your mum badly no matter how much she gets on my nerves and I will not make her work overtime unless necessary so she will have time for Mi Er Ok? Are you happy now?" Li Yifeng asked, smiling as he tapped the girl's nose playfully. Yang Mi pecked him again to express how happy she was. Yang Zi was so happy when she heard Li Yifeng's promise to Yang Mi. She was so happy that the girl came by the time she did.
"Are you willing to come with me now?" Yang Zi demanded as she stretched her hands to collect the little girl from Li Yifeng. Yang Mi obediently let go of Li Yifeng.
"Miss Yang, you can go home now to keep your daughter company and it would be nice of you if you can take her to the amusement park to play. She is just a little girl, don't be so hard on her," Yifeng added softly. That was the second time Yang Zi saw him so genuinely happy and concerned about someone since she started working for him.
"I will. Thank you Boss for not being offended by how spoiled Mi Er behaved towards you. I will make sure I teach her better next time," Yang Zi said meekly.
"You don't have to spank her and your daughter is adorable. Treat her well," Yifeng said.
"Mister, will you accompany us to the amusement park? Mi Er will really like it if mister can come with us too," Yang Mi said, acting all spoilt.
