I am her husband

Yang Zi boarded the car back to the company to finish some work. She felt so tired right now, but she won't dare to slack off. She wants to improve herself to become a better businesswoman.

Chen Yan noticed that Yang Zi was not feeling well, so she asked, "Miss Yang, you don't have any important matters to attend to for the rest of the day. Why don't we send you home?"

Yang Zi lightly shook her head and answered in a tired tone, "No, I can't do that. It's my first day today, so I need to go back to the company. I don't want to disappoint my brother. Besides, I am just a little tired. I can handle myself. Let us head back to the company.

Chen Yan nodded and instructed the driver to go back to the company. Upon arriving, Yang Zi immediately immersed herself in the paperwork. She did not even notice the time and it was already five in the afternoon.

"Little Chen, please get me a cup of coffee. The strongest coffee you have." Yang Zi said as she massaged her nose bridge.

Chen Yan was stunned, "But Miss Yang, I thought you do not like coffee? Mr. Feng told me before he left." As her personal secretary, Yang Feng already briefed her on the things that concerned Yang Zi. She is given the most important task during this whole and that is to ensure Yang Zi's safety.

Yang Zi smiled wryly, "He is sure attentive. I indeed don't like coffee, but I think I need one right now." She felt like her eyes were about to fall off because of exhaustion. She just supported her head with one hand while looking at Chen Yan.

"We do not have coffee here since Mr. Feng told us that you don't drink one. How about I go out for a bit and buy in the nearby cafe, Miss Yang?" Chen Yan asked.

Yang Zi contemplated and nodded her head eventually, "Okay, just get me a black coffee."

"Alright. Please wait a little bit, Miss Yang. I'll be right back." Chen Yan said and left immediately.

Yang Zi slumped her back on her chair and closed her eyes. Thinking of the work her brother has done all these years, she can help but admire him and, at the same time, felt bad for him. She can't imagine the burden his brother has been carrying on his shoulders all these years until she experienced it today.

Yang Zi sighed deeply. Suddenly her phone vibrated. She looked at the caller and unconsciously smiled upon seeing Li Jin's name flashing on the screen. She swiped the answer button and put it on the loudspeaker.

"Do you have lots of free time on hand that you are calling me at this hour? It is still a working hour." Yang Zi asked.

Li Jin chuckled lightly and said, "Of course, my time is always free when it comes to you, dear. So, how's work?" He asked.

Yang Zi closed her eyes again and said softly, "It's okay. I am just a little bit tired. I asked my assistant to buy me a coffee outside."

"You should take a rest, Xiao Zi. Don't exhaust yourself." Li Jin said worriedly.

"I'm fine. I can handle myself." She answered weakly.

Li Jin could barely hear her voice. It's obvious that she's very tired and now she's forcing herself to work.

"Xiao Zi, listen to me. Don't push yourself. You still have another day tomorrow." Li Jin said. However, he did not hear Yang Zi respond. Only a faint sound of breathing was heard from the other line.

"Xiao Zi? Are you still there?" Li Jin called, but no one still answered him.

Chen Yan entered the office carrying a cup of coffee. "Miss Yang, here's your coff- "

Before she could finish talking, she noticed that Yang Zi had already fallen asleep on her chair. Her face looked so tired. Chen Yan immediately lowered the temperature of the air conditioner and fetched a blanket. She approached her and put the blanket on her body.

Chen Yan glanced at the table and arranged the pile of documents. She noticed that there was an active call on her cellphone.

"Li Jin?" Chen Yan said softly. She felt that the name sounded familiar. Then a sudden voice suddenly sounded coming from the phone.

"Hello, Xiao Zi?" Li Jin suddenly said.

Chen Yan is afraid to wake Yang Zi up so she decides to pick up the phone. "Hello?"

"Who is this?" Li Jin asked as he noticed it was not Yang Zi.

"Erm, Mr. Li, right? I am Miss Yang's assistant. She has fallen asleep." Chen Yan informed him.

"I see. I'll be there shortly. Don't wake her up." Li Jin said as he ended the call.

Chen Yan was stunned. What's the relationship of Miss Yang to that man? she could not help but wonder. She thought deeply and discerned that he might be close to Yang Zi. Based on the call duration, it seems like they were already talking before she came back. So, there's no need to be alarmed.

Chen Yan decided to wait outside the CEO's office for Li Jin's appearance, together with two security officers. In case, something unexpected will happen. There were currently the only people left on the top floor since it was already time off from work.

A little while later, the elevator opened and a dashing figure came out. Chen Yan was very shocked. It was already rare for her to see the handsome profile of their CEO, and now she was bewildered to see another handsome being.

'So charismatic' Chen Yan thought.

Li Jin slowly approached them and said, "Where is Yang Zi?"

Chen Yan cleared her throat and answered politely, "Are you, Mr. Li, from the call earlier?"

Li Jin nodded, "I am."

"Very well. For security measures, we would like to ask Mr. Li to step on the security machine." Chen Yan gestured to Li Jin. Prevention is better than cure. She can't dare to risk the safety of Yang Zi. Even her life won't be enough to pay if something would happen to the Young Miss of the Yang Family.

Li Jin nodded lightly and followed the protocol. After the security check, Chen Yan led him into the room. "Please follow me, Mr. Li."

Li Jin followed her behind and entered the office. He was immediately greeted by the sleeping Yang Zi. He slowly approached her and carefully lifted her then placed her on the sofa.

Chen Yan observed his behavior and it seems like she has discovered an important secret today.

"You can leave now. I will take care of Yang Zi." Li Jin said as he placed Yang Zi's head on his lap. This affectionate movement totally shocked Chen Yan.

Chen Yan nodded and turned to leave but before she could open the door, she toughened herself to ask, "Mr. Li, if you don't mind me asking. What is your relationship with our Miss Yang?"

Li Jin did not answer immediately, making Chen Yan slightly nervous. "Well, I-I'm sorry, Mr. Li. Please forget about my question." Then she opened the door but was held by Li Jin's answer.

"Husband."

"I am her husband." Li Jin declared. Then he continued, "But no one still knew about our marriage."

Chen Yan couldn't move her feet and glanced at them. H-husband?!

This is a piece of shocking news. Who would have thought Yang Zi would be this low-profile.

Chen Yan was shaken to the core. Li Jin just remained silent while his gaze did not leave Yang Zi's face for a second.

Chen Yan slowly regained her composure and said politely, "I see. Then, I will take my leave, Mr. Li. I will leave Miss Yang in your hands. Rest assured, I will not tell anyone about this, Mr. Li."

Li Jin nodded in response. Chen Yan immediately closed the door behind her and took a very deep breath. She then instructed the security to leave since there is no need for their presence. Of course, she did not disclose that Li Jin is Yang Zi's husband. Instead, she just told them that he was from the Yang Family.

A faint light emanated inside the office coming from the lamp on Yang Zi's table. He tucked her hair on his ear and just quietly observed Yang Zi's peaceful face.

"Don't you know that my heart aches so much to see you tired, huh?" Li Jin said softly.

He caressed her face and said, "You're still beautiful no matter how you look." Then gave her a small kiss on her lips.

A small smile escaped from Yang Zi's cherry lips making Li Jin chuckled softly. "It seems like you are dreaming of something good. Are you dreaming about me Xiao Zi?"

It seems like Yang Zi noticed her source of security that she suddenly hugged Li Jin's arms. He can't help but put another kiss on her blushing cheeks. His wife is still as silly as ever. He sighed and closed his eyes.

Soon, the couple was engaged in their very fascinating dreams.
