Dexi was on his way to the office when his mother, Zhao Biyu, paid him a surprise visit.

"I"m really surprised to see you here" He said as he ushered her to sit.

"No need to sit. I"ll go straight to the point since you"re on your way to work."

They both strode outside as she spoke "There are eyes on this family now. I don"t know what your sister was thinking when she allowed Weiyoung to take the mike last night. But we have to cover it up with something bigger."

He stopped walking. She did also. "It"s their problem. Why do I have to help them cover it?"

"They"re your family!" She scolded. "Family should stick to each other" She said and took both his hands in hers and gazed at her son lovingly. "Especially in times like this"

"Did you know what Sister Aida was planning?" He asked. Biyu nodded. All she wanted was for her family to be happy. Which included her children and grandchild. "I know she wanted to make our family stronger by bonding with the Songs. But now that this has happened, I"m not sure there is anything she can do about it. We have to rely on you"

Dexi almost laughed at his mother"s ignorance. "Wanted to make the family stronger? I wish" "So what do you want me to do?"

She smiled warmly at him. "The girl that came with you last night."

His eyes shone. Why was she asking about Sara all of a sudden?

"Is she your girlfriend or one of your flings? I sense you do like her."

Dexi didn"t say anything and only smiled slightly.

"Come on. You do not have to be shy." She grinned widely at him "She is really pretty. What family is she from?"

"Mother, I have to leave for the office now" He tried to evade her questions.

"But... I think she looks really familiar. Has she been to any of our occasion before?"

Dexi recalled his mother might have seen her that night at Jinyong"s engagement. Things were really going to get messed up if she recognised her.

"Mother.. I really need to leave now. I"ll see you another time" He kissed her on a cheek and left her there.

In his car, he thought back to last night. He couldn"t understand why he couldn"t get Sara when his useless nephew could do so. He knew his mother planned to cover Jinyong"s scandal by asking him to introduce his girlfriend to the public. He sighed deeply then spoke to his secretary.

"Search for every detail about w.a.n.g Sara and send it to me as soon as possible"

Muchen used his hands to ma.s.sage his temples. Of all days, Minde chose today to trouble his life.

"Why aren"t you saying anything?" Minde asked worriedly.

"I need to work and you"re distracting me" Muchen said.

"Come on, talk to me. I"m here for you"

Muchen looked at his expression and couldn"t help laughing at his cheekiness. He finally focused on his cousin.

"What do you think is wrong?" Muchen asked.

Minde thought for a moment before responding. "I do not think the shares dropped, neither do I think you"re in some kind of scandal or family problem. But...." His eyes shone brightly as he snapped his fingers. "Wait! Is this about sister in law?"

Muchen smiled unconsciously. He liked the sound of that. "Stop being such a busybody. Are you here to distract yourself from thinking about your ex girlfriend getting pregnant for another man?" He teased.

Minde laughed. "If he was a little bit better or cuter than me then I would have been a little bit sad. Only stupid people will date Mo Jinyong"

Muchen smiled a bit before something settled in and he frowned. "Repeat the last sentence" He demanded.

Minde wondered what was up with his brother and was about repeating it again before he remembered that Sara had dated Jinyong and he had just indirectly called Sara, stupid.

He smiled awkwardly. "You know I didn"t mean that."

Muchen glared at him and scanned through a file on his desk.

"But about Sara. How is it going with you both?" Minde asked inquisitively.

"She"s..." Muchen didn"t know what to say concerning their current relations.h.i.+p so he settled with "She"s okay".

He dropped the file and looked at Minde seriously. "While you were with Weiyoung, did you by chance hear anything from her about Sara?"

Minde paused and tried to recall. "Now that I think about it...there was a certain time I was a bit curious about Sara and asked about her from Weiyoung but she said something I didn"t take note of back then. Something like..." He paused for a while again to remember. Muchen was almost dying of curiosity, as every second felt like an hour.

"She said something like Sara is not who she appeared to be. And I should stay away from her whenever I see her. I guess she was right after all. Judging from how she beat up my bodyguards at that time. Don"t you think she is a bit strange? Why would a girl know how to fight like that?" Minde wondered. He was also beginning to get curious.

Muchen was quite for a while as he pondered upon the question. When he saw Minde also lost in thought, he snapped him back to reality. "Focus! Sara has nothing to do with you so mind your business"

"Alright, Alright." Minde eyed him. "About Changyu, how was your meeting with her? Did she agree to sell the building to you?"

"How did you know about the building?" Muchen asked.

"Is there anything about you that I do not know?" Minde winked at him.

"She hasn"t concluded. I have a feeling she doesn"t want to."

"You"re all after the building because a redevelopment is going to happen around that area soon. So why would she sell it at this critical time?"

Muchen shook his head. "I do not think that is the case"

"Why has she been keeping that dilapidated building anyway? Or maybe she"s been keeping it for this very moment?"

"What do you know about the building?" Muchen asked.

"I heard it had been a 5-star restaurant but was closed down by the government due to some reasons. After that, the Songs bought the land. And a couple of years later, while Changyu was still abroad, she bought the land from her parents without them knowing it was her."

Muchen nodded. He thought he was going to get a new information from Minde but it was what he knew already. "Do you know anything about the previous owner?"

Minde shook his head."No"

Talking about the Songs suddenly reminded Muchen of how Sara had been searching for Changyu the night before. What was up with her anyway?
