Chapter 59: Birthday’s present

They repeated the same process for the central courtyard until Zhang Yong arrive.

"Big brother Zhang.." Bai Yi Yang look up when she noticed someone coming from the gate. She is quite focused doing the job with Mr.Song so she is also not sure since when Zhang Yong have been standing there.

"You only saw me now?" Zhang Yong said. He took out a tissue from his pocket and hand it over to Bai Yi Yang. Today, Zhang Yong didn't come to work, he is wearing a white polo shirt and a beige colour pants, his hair is neatly comb back. No wonder Bai Yi Chen is worried that she will fall in love at a young age, Zhang Yong is really quite good looking. Be it his look or temperament, he has it all. On top of that, he is also rich. Top notch quality ah.

Bai Yi Yang grinned at her own thought as she took off her glove and took the tissue to wipe the sweat on her forehead.

"This is Mr.Song. He is helping with the central courtyard renovation. And this is Mr.Zhang that I have told you about, he and his team transform our kitchen." Bai Yi Yang introduced the two person to each other.

"Hello Mr.Zhang" "Hello Mr.Song" They smile and nod at each other.

"Miss Bai, you go do your business, I will handle things here." Mr.Song said. Bai Yi Yang nod as she bring Zhang Yong to the kitchen.

"His work looks neat." Zhang Yong praise Mr.Song when they are seated in the kitchen.

"Yeah. He is a very meticulous person, I am not even worried leaving things to him." Bai Yi Yang said. After that, Zhang Yong look around their finished work from yesterday, open all compartment, test the sturdiness, check the water and see if the sink is working properly.

"I didn't see any problem. You hold this, I go take the gas cylinder." He said as he hand over the writing board to Bai Yi Yang before heading outside. He return not long later with a gas cylinder in his hand.

"Heavy?" Bai Yi Yang ask, she was about go help him but he reject her.

"I will show you how to connect them." Zhang Yong said after putting the gas cylinder into the compartment below the stove. He took the hose and connect it go the build in stove.

"After making sure that they are tight, you turn this to the side to turn this on. Before you remove the head, make sure to close it off first. Or if you are heading away for long time, you close it too. Understand?" He explain.

"Ohh, got it." Bai Yi Yang nod. This build in stove mechanism is new to her but it is not hard. She just never do this thing personally before.

"Now try turning on the stove, see if they all work." Bai Yi Chen took the writing board from Bai Yi Yang. Bai Yi Yang tried all 4 and they all work perfectly.

"It's perfect. I don't have any complaint, your team did a very good job." Bai Yi Yang smile.

"Alright." Zhang Yong shows the receipt for all the materials and labor fee.

"The total is 15,789 yuan. Check it." He said. Bai Yi Yang check the receipt, the items that she bought are all in details. Different installation has different fee and it was all written in details.

"I check it, I will transfer the money now." Bai Yi Yang scan and their transaction is settle after that.

"Received." Zhang Yong smile.

"Another one, the fee from helping me yesterday." Bai Yi Yang said. Zhang Yong almost forgot about that.

"That will be 25 yuan." He smile helplessly at her clear memory.

"Alright." Bai Yi Yang grinned and make a transfer.

"I won't be in town until next month on the 15th, but you can call me anytime, I can find time if you need any help." He said.

"Ohh..what a busy man." Bai Yi Yang tease.

"I won't dare to disturb you when you are this busy." She add.

"Don't be like that. Didn't we agree not to be strangers." Zhang Yong said. Bai Yi Yang nod and grinned at him.

"Alright, follow me to the car. I will give you the things you said this morning." Zhang Yong said. Both of them head outside to Zhang Yong car, today he didn't use his 4x4 car, it's a white Ford SUV car. "Leaving directly after this?" Bai Yi Yang ask when Zhang Yong open the back seat and his luggage is there.

"En. There are a few things to do in the city after leaving a few days." Zhang Yong answer. He hand over a new plastic bag sealing machine and a bag that contains rolls of plastic.

"We should have settle it yesterday." Bai Yi Yang feel a bit guilty. This means that Zhang Yong need to rush from here just to check on their perfectly fine work.

"I wanted to see you..I mean I want to see all of you before leaving. Anyway, I am leaving." Zhang Yong open the driver seat.

Bai Yi Yang step back a bit to give space but who knows that Zhang Yong didn't directly enter, he took something from the car and face Bai Yi Yang.

"Yi Yang, happy belated birthday." Zhang Yong said with a gentle smile before putting a small leather box on top of the sealing box that he gave Bai Yi Yang.

Bai Yi Yang and Bai Yi Chen birthday is at the end of December, Bai Yi Yang told Zhang Yong about it before while they were chatting. Never thought that he will remember that and gave the present now, out of nowhere.

"This…" Bai Yi Yang wanted to reject but her hands are full.

Zhang Yong didn't wait for her answer and he went into his car and start the engine. He smile and wave his hand before driving away. Bai Yi Yang was frozen on the spot as she saw the car leaving.

This..why does his smile looks different than usual? And this forcing a gift plot seems very familiar, as if she have watch or read it somewhere. Bai Yi Yang is still confused when she enter the Main house.

The people installing the vinyl flooring is almost done with the Main house. When they got a grasp on it, it wasn't hard. What more, including Bai Yi Chen, there are 4 of them working. In no time they can head to the West house.

"Yang Yang, all settled?" Bai Yi Chen approached her and took the things from her hand, he then placed it with their stuff that has been put aside.

"En.." She nod.

"What is this?" Bai Yi Chen took the leather box and look around it. Bai Yi Yang quickly took it from him and hide it behind her, making Bai Yi Chen more suspicious. His face form a frown.

"Just a belated birthday gift." She explain. Well, she just doesn't wang Bai Yi Chen to think too much about her relationship with Zhang Yong, but her actions of hiding the gift made Bai Yi Chen become more suspicious.

"It's nothing, really." She try to convince him and hand it over to him. Bai Yi Chen didn't take it but his face doesn't look very good either, he had an expression that says he doesn't believe her.

"En. Its just a birthday gift. I go do my work." He said and turn around, leaving her standing there.

Bai Yi Yang feels that Bai Yi Chen is really having many thoughts in his head now. She is so stupid, why did she need to hide it at the first place. She sigh and return to the bedroom, she put the box into a drawer. She didn't even open it, she is not in a mood now.

Bai Yi Yang returns to the courtyard and Mr.Song is still doing the centre area, she immediately put on her gloves and come to help him.

"That Mr.Zhang is quite handsome, he seems to come from a well off family too." Mr.Song said.

"Right.." Bai Yi Yang feels awkward talking about Zhang Yong now after what happened today. Bai Yi Chen reaction towards the gifts affected her a lot. She feels that she is crazy for thinking that Zhang Yong might like her for real. This is all because Bai Yi Chen said a few words to her yesterday.

"Young man nowadays is so capable, I had seen his work, they all look good." Mr.Song praise again.

"Mr.Zhang also praise your work Mr.Song." Bai Yi Yang said.

"Anyway, do we do the west or east side first after this?" She ask, trying to change the topic.

Mr.Song quickly explain to her this and that. After that, their work pace also increased, they stop only when it is almost 12.30 pm and the children has returned.

"Let's stop for now." Bai Yi Yang said.

Mr.Song also agree, they can continue with the work later. Mr.Song planned to return to the town for lunch, he said he will come again in the evening. He told Bai Yi Yang about their plan, they are going to finish the other 2 part later.

Bai Yi Yang said her goodbye and came to see the final work of vinyl flooring installation in the kitchen. The 'Lang dage' is taking measurements and cutting the vinyl flooring according to the curve of the floor while Bai Yi Chen and the the other two was putting them in place.

It looks quite easy to install it, they have groove between each on of them, making the final product to be very neat. Bai Yi Yang think the key is cutting precisely. The 'Lang dage' do the hard job while the other install. No wonder they finished quickly.

"Miss Bai, we will be done in less than 30 minutes." 'Lang dage' said.

"En, alright." Bai Yi Yang didn't pressure them and return to the Main house. Bai Yi Ling is nagging at the children who is rolling over the floor now.

"Our new floor is so pretty!" Bai Yi Mo said to his sister.

"Jie, I ask them to bath but they are not listening." Bai Yi Ling complain.

"Ohh.." Bai Yi Yang said, looking at the children.

"Jie, we are going out again in the evening, no need to take a bath." Bai Yi Mo said.

"Then you cannot enter the room for a nap this afternoon?" Bai Yi Yang said.

"We just sleep here bah." Bai Yi Fang chimed in. Bai Yi Yang smile.

"Alright, do as you see fit." She agree.

"Xiao Ling, no need to cook first. Let them finished the job in the kitchen then we cook lunch." Bai Yi Yang said.
