章節 57: Bound to make mistakes

When Sara got down from the car, She bumped into Jianjun who was also just returning from the restaurant. The chauffeur got down and after exchanging pleasantries with him, he drove off.

Sara was confused on what to do. What was she supposed to tell him? Wait! Why couldn't she tell him anything? It's not like she did anything wrong.

Jianjun opened the door of the apartment for her to go in.

She moved slowly with her head down. After her father entered and closed the door, She turned to look at him and spoke.

"Dad... I..."

"How is Mr Chu and Bilike?" He interrupted.

Sara could not tell whether he was angry or not but just spoke

"They are both fine. They sent their regards and thanks to you for the meal"

He nodded gently then asked "What about Mr Li?

Sara's heart skipped a bit. Why was he asking about Mr Li all of a sudden?

"He..he didn't sound quite fine but I guess he is good" She answered.

Seeing the car drop Sara off, he could tell that Mr Li had sent him to pick up Sara. Since from what she said, he was able to deduce that she did not meet him. He was glad that Mr Li was a considerate person. But he did not really know how he felt about Mr Li liking his daughter. Every other father would want that but he felt conflicted.

"When are you paying him a visit?" He asked as he moved to her room to check on Joreen who was fast asleep, with Sara tailing after him"

"Tomorrow. He said he..needs dinner from your restaurant" She didn't know how to put it for her father not to feel bad or angry that Mr Li was imposing it on her. "He'll pay for the food" She said, even if she knew she would be the one paying.

Jianjun almost laughed when he saw his daughter's confused acts.

"Look Sara" He spoke softly and he held her hands trying not to wake Joreen up. "You are an adult. I have always spoiled you since you were young. I can't change it now so you can do whatever you want. If you mess up, we would clean it up together. People are bound to make mistakes. But do not see fire and still choose to dip your hand into it. I would only be by your side but I won't be able to feel the pain you are feeling." He advised.

Truthfully, for fear that she would miss the presence of a mother, he spoilt her so much. That whatever she asked for, he gave it to her immediately. When she told him she just made a friend who attended B High school and she wanted to go there also, he did not care about the cost and laboured day and night in order to send her there even if he knew his daughter was not so bright academically. Still, she was still seen as a pauper and looked down on there. Who cared about the fees you paid? Everyone only cared about your life after school.

Sara was touched and hugged him tightly. Even in her next life, she would never separate from Jianjun Wang.

He hugged her also and spoke "I promised Mr Li that he could eat whatever he wanted. So just come over to the restaurant when you are ready to go. I'll pack you a nice meal."

***

Everything continued smoothly the next day, which was a Monday. Joreen was in school, Jianjun was in the restaurant, Sara and Heya were both in the gym while Muchen was working with his laptop in the hospital with a wide smile on his face.

**

"I think I'll never get used to this" Heya said while trying to catch her breath, with her entire body lying flat on the floor.

Sara laughed. For some reason, she felt so weak.

"You'll gradually get used to it with time my dear." Sara encouraged. "Hope you did enough Jump rope yesterday?"

"Sure, it was HELL. I couldn't believe you suddenly interrupted my rest last night, after all the jumping I did. You stay awake till that time?" Heya asked.

"On rare cases. I went to the hospital"

"Hospital? Are you sick?" Heya asked.

"No. I went to pay a visit to someone." Sara replied as she sat up and gobbled water from the can directly.

"Then why were you asking for Big Bro's number suddenly? You miss him all of a sudden?

When Sara heard him, the water she was drinking went the wrong way and she choked.

Heya used all her strength to sit up and pat Sara's back. "You are always fond of choking whenever you get teased about my brother. Be careful" She said in reference to the time they were in the restaurant and Mr Chu had asked if Muchen was Sara's boyfriend.

Sara's cheeks turned red. No one could tell if it was because she was choking or because she was actually blushing.

She finally stopped coughing and stood up. She lifted her bag and took out a note then opened it.

"On Wednesday would be free as usual" Sara said.

"Oh! it would have been a good time to use my free coupon and have a nice Stir Fried Tofu with Rice." Heya sighed.

"You also love that? it's Joreen's favourite. You know you can't have any if those right now right?" Sara said.

"I know. I'll give the coupon to you then. You can get the meal for Joreen as a present from me" Heya said

"She is going to be so happy. Thank you Heya"

"You are welcome. Any other thing?" Heya asked

"For Friday, We would be doing something fun." Sara said with a smile.

"What is that?" Heya asked inquisitively.

"We'd go biking"

章節 58: My Love for you

Muchen looked at his watch. It was already past 8 in the evening. Sara was supposed to arrive an hour ago but she still wasn't here. He looked at the bad luck beside him. It was none other that his cousin Li Minde.

He had accidentally accepted a Video call from Minde. When Minde saw that he was in a hospital, he panicked and was almost calling the entire extended family before Muchen stopped him. He only agreed not to tell the others if he visits Muchen and see for himself that nothing was actually wrong with him.

"Why are you looking at me like that. It's not my fault that she stood you up" Minde mocked. He was happy to see things not going well for his brother and Sara. Even though he was mad at Sara for making his beloved cousin wait for nothing, he was still happy she didn't show up.

Muchen just stared blankly then shook his head.

"There is something wrong. She would have at least called. What if she got into trouble?" He panicked at the thought of that.

Minde looked at his cousin in surprise. Was the Almighty CEO Li Muchen getting all jittery because of a girl? If any other person sees him now, they'll totally lose respect for him.

"This is a bad idea. How can you bring yourself this low because of a girl? And a girl like Sara? If you want to play with her, just give her money and She'll run into your arms. She's playing hard to get believe me. I know how these girls act to get our attenti..." Before he could land, a pillow smacked his head. "BRO!"

"Another word from you and I'll throw my computer next" Muchen warned.

Minde had to keep shut and just watch how everything played out.

Muchen took out his phone to call Sara. If Muhammed refuses to go to the mountain, the mountain will go to Muhammed. He called Sara repeatedly but it was still unreachable.

His worry intensified as he didn't know who else to call.

He then dialled Heya's number.

"Is Sara at home?" He asked when the call connected.

"Big Bro, Are you back?" Heya asked excitedly.

"Not really. Where is Sara?" He didn't know how else to answer her. A yes or No answer wasn't a good answer right now.

"No one cares about me now. She asks about you when she calls, you ask about her when you call. I feel so insignificant" Heya pouted as if Muchen was there seeing her puppy face.

Muchen could imagine how her face was like right now and laughed a little "That's not it I.. wait! did you just say she asked about me?" He suddenly sat up when his brain registered what she had said earlier.

"See what I'm talking about. That's the only thing you care about"

"Be serious Heya"

"She called me last night to ask if you were at home and to send your number. I told her to ask Ms Long instead since you might get angry"

So if she didn't ask about me when Ms Long called her. Why did she have to call Heya to ask if he was at home and also ask for his number? There was only one answer, Ms Long lied to him!

'Chou Long. what the hell has gotten into you?'

"Sara hurriedly left about 3 hours back after receiving a call from her Father. I think something happened to him." He heard Heya say.

" What? Give me the details"

"I don't really know. Just that we were in the middle of working out when her phone suddenly rang. Then she panicked and apologized to me before leaving. She didn't even go with the Chauffeur, I think she ran"

"Why didn't you call me then?"

"You are not in town. Besides, I didn't want to disturb you"

"Alright, thank you. I'll hang up now. Take care of yourself."

"Bro, did something happen? Minde asked when Muchen dropped the call and stood up abruptly.

"I knew something happened. Sara wouldn't just change her mind like that"

Minde was about to ask more when they heard a knock on the door. It was Ms Long coming in to inform Muchen about everything that had happened that day at work.

She greeted the both of them and noticed that the atmosphere was strained.

"You can leave today. Let's talk about it tomorrow" He dismissed her. Still angry about whatever issue had transpired between her Sara.

Ms Long could not pinpoint what was wrong. She accepted and left there.

"I'm leaving now. I'll see you later" He said to Minde as he moved to the door.

"Big Bro Wait!" You don't have to leave. I'll check the issue." He had been looking for a way to make Muchen indebted to him. This was a good opportunity.

"You want me to comfortably sit here when I know that something is wrong?"

"What if you leave and she gets here? Are you going to come back here to feign illness?" Minde asked. "Do you even think She'll want you to help her even if she was in a dire situation?"

Muchen knew Minde was making sense for the first time in his life. Sara would not ask for his help.

"Why are you helping me all of a sudden." Muchen couldn't help feeling suspicious.

"Well, you could say that my love for you exceeds my dislike for Sara I guess." He said with a shrug
