Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Chapter 146: Meeting my father-in-law

The next day, Yi Lan resumed his daily routine in the hospital as always. Since he couldn't sleep, he immediately brought a basin and a clean towel to the side of the bed when it was morning. He soaked the clean towel inside the basin containing clean water. He used the towel to wipe every part of her body. Yi Lan thought that he was going to have a peaceful day alone with Lie Ruge throughout that day without the interference of the two guys and Xiao Bai but far was his dream from coming through because immediately twelve noon he had two visitors all at once.

When he heard a light knock on the door, he had thought that it was either the doctor or the nurse in charge of taking care of Lie Ruge, but he was stunned when he turned around to see the two people standing at the entrance of hospital's door.

" Mum, Dad?", Yi Lan said with a surprised look written all over his face.

" Why are you staring at us as though you have seen a ghost?", Madam Yi asked walking into the room as Elder Yi followed behind.

" Mum, Dad, what are you doing here? How did you locate this place and why are you here if I may ask?", Yi Lan asked without offering them a seat. He was still holding tightly unto Lie Ruge's hand without nag sign of letting go. Elder Yi and Mrs Yi quickly took their seats since Yi Lan refused to offer them one.

" You this unfilial son of mine, how could you not informed us about what happened. Do you know how worried your mum was when she did not hear any news about you?", Elder Yi asked sternly.

" Son, I hope you didn't get hurt in any way? Let me take a closer look at you", Madam Yi said standing up from her seat to check Yi Lan closely. She checked Yi Lan body's to a point that he got a little upset.

" I'm alright mum, I was not the one that got caught", Yi Lan said standing up from his seat. They talked for about ten minutes before Madam Yi moved closer to where Lie Ruge was lying down peacefully. She used her right hand to caress her face.

" What a rare beauty. She is so much prettier in person, and she is even prettier than her late mother", Madam Yi complimented holding her right hand this time around. Elder Yi also stood up and walked closer to his wife .

" I agree with you, she is one of the rarest beauty I have ever seen although she is not as beautiful as you. She looks so charming even though she is sleeping. I can't believe the little girl that I always carried on my body some years ago has now grown up into a full-grown woman", Elder Yi said.

" Dad how could you say that mum is prettier than her? Stop being biased and say the truth, although mum is very pretty but Ge'er is prettier", Yi Lan said while standing close to his mum

" You have already taken her side. How could you deny your mum in front of her? Who knows how you will behave when she eventually becomes your wife", Madam Yi said nudging him with her elbow while pretending as if she was angry. She turned around to face Lie Ruge while once again still holding her hand.

" My baby, wake up soon Ok? I can tell just from looking into my son's eyes just how much he loves you. Don't you want to experience what true love means, it is the most beautiful feeling in world. Although he is quite harsh and cold, he treats those he loves with care and protection and no matter how cold he is, he is bewitched by your charms right now so you can do whatever you want to do with him, he is all your yours to take. I never expected that our first meeting would be like this but I will definitely meet you again when you get better. I would love to visit you again before you leave the hospital but I know that this son of mine will not allow that, so get better soon", Madam Yi said with a sad look on her face.

" Child I really loved you when you were just a little kid and that has not changed. I took you as my child back then and that fact as not changed too. I know we will definitely meet once again and help me to tame this son of mine for your father alright? We will meet again when you recover and this time around even though I have to personally pick you up by myself in order to meet up with you then I will do just that. I will not give this son of mine another opportunity to deceive us again", Elder Yi said.

" You have just arrived, what is going on? My mum and dad I know will not leave here until they spent t at least an hour or more than that here so how come you have only spent about fifteen minutes here before you decided leaving, I hope is nothing wrong", Yi Lan asked with concern.

" It would have been so nice of you if you had always called home at least twice a week to ask us such questions. We know that you want to spend some quality time alone with her but If you want us to stay longer we can do just that", Madam Yi said picking up her purse from the couch. It was not long after Mr and Mrs Yi left, that each department in the whole building sent flowers to wish their boss quick recovery which made Yi Lan very angry. " Will they just let us be alone for at least some time?", Yi Lan had said to no one in particular when the person who delivered the bouquets of flowers left. Just when he was happy that they had finally left them alone, he started speaking to her. About two minutes after he started speaking, he suddenly felt the presence of someone at the door. He immediately turned around to give whoever the unknown intruder was a murderous glare, but he received the shock of his life when he saw who the visitor was. He immediately stood up and went to welcome his father-in-law. He even offered him a his seat while he just stood there not knowing what to do or say.

" It's good to see you in person chairman Lie", Yi Lan greeted him formally when he had sat down.

" And you are...", chairman Lie pretended as if he did not know him although he got daily reports every day from his men about what Lie Ruge was up to. And which businessman does not know who the tyrant monarch is? He was his good friend son, so he knew him very well although they had not met face to face before since it was a known fact that the Young Master of the Yi's family does not attend public social gathering.

" I am CEO Yi of Yi's Group", Yi Lan answered sternly.

" Of course I know who you are. I meant what is your relationship with my beautiful daughter", chairman Lie said beckoning him to have his seat, and he did immediately.

" Sorry for the late introduction chairman Lie, I am Ge'er's man", Yi Lan said confidently.

" What? How come nobody told me about that? Were the two of dating yourselves behind my back? I hope you didn't mistreat my fragile girl in any way?", chairman Lie said giving him a warning gaze. He wanted to see whether he will tremble or not when he appears cold to him, but he was not surprise to see him act so composed and confident because he had heard so much about him.

" Of course I did not mistreat her in any way and I would never do that in a million years to come", Yi Lan replied deliberately not answering the first two questions. Chairman Lie stood up from his seat and walked closer to where Lie Ruge was lying down. Pains were written all over his face when he saw the condition his vibrant daughter was in. He could not forget how much his daughter hated the hospital. Seeing her in that condition brought back past painful memories, but he quickly shook the thoughts off his mind. Yi Lan could tell just how much he loves his daughter by merely looking into his eyes. He had heard everything from Xiao Bai concerning his daughter's conditions and it saddens his heart so much to know that there was a probability that his only beloved daughter might not wake up. He wasn't aware of the news until three days ago when the news got to him from those at the office that the Young Miss of the Xiao family wanted to assume the position of the acting CEO in Lie Ruge's stead. Xiao Bai had lied that Lie Ruge told her to take over her position temporarily because she was out on an important business trip. He had suspected that something was wrong, so he had sent for Xiao Bai but Xiao Bai refused to honor his invitation for an unknown reason. He only learned of his daughter's hospitalization after much difficulty when he personally went to the office earlier today.

" My baby, how could you let this happen to you? You have always said that you will protect those you love no matter what but how come you couldn't even protect yourself? Don't you know that you've got to first learn how to protect and cherish yourself before you can move on to protecting everything that matters to you? I know you must be so uncomfortable lying down there right? You've got to wake up right away because I know just how much hatred you have towards hospitals Ok?", chairman Lie said stroking her hair, he even caressed her beautiful face too. After spending about thirty minutes discussing, it was now time for chairman Lie to go back home. After walking chairman Lie to the door, chairman Yi turned shot him a cold glare.

" Hey Yi Lan, although you are my good friend's son I will not let you off the hook if you dare hurt my daughter. I don't mind going exact miles to make sure you pay dearly if you dare as much make my daughter shed tears because of you and also don't be overly confident that she is already yours because I haven't approve of you yet", chairman Lie said fiercely.

" I will all that in mind Sir", Yi Lan said before Lie Ruge's father left.

" Ge'er, I hope I have earned some points from your father right?", Yi Lan asked when he sat down beside Lie Ruge.
