Hello, Mr Li

Chapter 289

Muchen did not know how to feel or react to everything. She had suffered a whole lot. No wonder she did not act like most ladies and also have an unfriendly att.i.tude most times.

If for anything, her revelation made him love her even more. He had never met any lady as strong as her—Someone who went through h.e.l.l and was still able to smile brightly.

He was going to help her wipe away those feelings and also wipe out the people who had caused her such.

She could trust him on that. 

He reluctantly left the room to another room that looked like an office and checked his mail with the computer.

Just as he had expected, his secretary, Mr Hw.a.n.g had sent him everything he needed to know about Delight"s Park Chen.

He considered making a list of everyone he was supposed to get back at for Sara. But he trusted his brain to keep a proper record and deal with them. 

He replied to the mail and sent Mr Hw.a.n.g some details.

He wanted to fully dig on Jin Medusa now. 

If he could get enough information on her, he believed he could also get some on her useless brother. Sara had told him she did not know his full name. They only called him Fuji which was obviously not his real name.

Once he was done with Mr Hw.a.n.g, he remembered there was another important thing he needed to do so he called Sara"s father, Mr w.a.n.g. 

The ring did not take long before the call was answered. It was as if Jianjun had been expecting his call. 

After greeting him and exchanging pleasantries, he went on to say. 

"Sara is currently asleep. I"m sorry, but she may not be able to return home today"

It was already Past 12 in the morning, she was asleep plus, it would take them approximately two hours to get to their place. It was going to be too stressful for her right now. So he wanted to allow her sleep peacefully. 

Jianjun was quiet after he heard him. 

He had been waiting for Sara the entire night. And had a mixed feeling about her sleeping with him. But he had to remind himself that she was a grown up now and could take care of herself.

He sighed before agreeing. "Alright. Did she eat?" He remembered to ask. 

Muchen told him she had eaten and answered other minor questions Jianjun had asked.

When it looked like there was nothing left to say, Muchen broke the silence and said..

"Thank you Mr w.a.n.g."

"For what?" Jianjun asked in confusion. He should be thanking Muchen for taking good care of his daughter and treating her well instead. Was their roles reversed?

"For everything you have done for Sara. For showing her a whole lot of love. You are a great father" Muchen turned emotional as he praised him, and even Jianjun heard him sniff. 

Muchen knew that most children do not have a good relations.h.i.+p with their parents, especially the father-daughter relations.h.i.+p.

But Jianjun had always been there for Sara. It was another reason she could live well despite all she had gone through.

If her father had been and a.s.shole like most fathers, he believed she would not have been able to recover. 

"She is my daughter. So of course I should love her." 

Jianjun said with a short laugh. 

"I should thank you for taking good care of her. It"s rare to find a man like you." Jianjun praised back. 

Both of them kept on praising each other while laughing at what the other was saying.

Muchen did not want to tell him he had asked her to marry him and she had agreed. He wanted Sara to tell them herself. 

He knew women liked dropping that particular bomb and he did not want to ruin the fun for her.

Jianjun also considered telling Muchen about Sara"s mother.  But that was not something he could just start talking about on the phone.

"When you are less busy one of these days. You should come over" 

Muchen quickly accepted the offer. He was going to do anything to make Mr w.a.n.g not change his mind about him. 

In Grand Castle Hotel, Fuji held a gla.s.s of wine in his hand and continued to twirl the stem around with a dark expression on his face. His legs were crossed, and he seemed to be lost on thought. 

Snake stood in front of him and knew that with the look on his eyes, there was trouble!

"She must think I cannot do anything to her" 

Fuji muttered.

But was she wrong? 

He was not sure he could touch her now. Because aside from the fact that she was smarter now and could easily expose them, he did not want to bring any harm to his sister. 

Sara was also surrounded by powerful people now and he could not easily harm her even if he wanted.

He knew he made a mistake from the very moment he asked Snake to bring Sara back to the base many years ago.

He would have just let them kill her back then. 

But he could not allow it. She had reminded him of someone—The only woman he ever loved. 

Sara had looked exactly like her and the way she ran that day reminded him of how his own woman had ran for her dear life. But unfortunately, she was still caught and killed. 

He thought saving Sara would make him feel like he had gone back in time to save his own teenage love. But things had not gone according to plan. 

Not only did she hit him, she called him all sort of names that he had never heard in his entire life. 

She had made the base fun for him and he always wanted to rile her up.

He had wanted to make her a full Black because he needed someone like her. But unfortunately, she did not have same plans as him. 

If not for his sister.... That d.a.m.ned woman!

Speaking of her, she finally arrived. 

There was no smile on her face when she sat down opposite him. Her face was as cold as ever. 

"You can excuse us now" Fuji said to Snake. 

After Snake left, they siblings began to talk. 

"What is this? Why can"t I get a simple painting? Elder Jin"s birthday is in two days!" She complained with a frown.

"I totally forgot how stubborn that girl was. If she says no, it"s a no. She did not seem to even fall for my little trick and quickly broke out of my hypnosis. I really underestimated her" 

He smirked and spoke more to himself that to his sister.

"You are using Sara w.a.n.g?" 

Medusa could easily guess who he was referring to with that look in his eyes.

"Sure" Fuji uncrossed his legs and placed the gla.s.s of wine on the table before offering her one "It"s your favourite."

"Since when did you go back on your word? Did you not promise to let her go?" Medusa yelled at him in anger and refused to accept the drink.

"I did. But this is for you this time. Trust me." 

"This is not just about me.  Now she"s all grown up and you think you can finally have her? Don"t even think about it and focus on getting me that painting" She warned.

Medusa had easily recognised Sara when she saw her on Christmas day. She remembered the little girl who had looked at her like she was a murderer. 

It was the first time she killed someone. And seeing that look on Sara"s eyes as she stared at her, made her confirm what she had just done. 

She thought they killed Sara that day. But to her surprise, she found out that Sara was locked in the base. She knew her brother would not just keep her like that and had gone to see for herself if it was true that Fuji treated her like his "daughter" because she did not think so. 

She had seen him laughing at her while she trained. It was as if he was having fun by erely looking at her.

She had also heard Sara yell and cuss him but he had simply laughed and told her to train more if she wanted to leave.

At that very moment, she knew something was wrong. 

She knew keeping Sara would only put them all in trouble because eventually she would become his weakness. 

She had asked him to let Sara go or kill her. But Fuji refused. No matter what she said, he did not agree.

It did hurt her because her brother liked her a lot but now, he could not agree to that simple wish. 

Out of anger, she had threatened to cut ties with him if he chose Sara. And not only that, she was going to kill Sara with her own hands. That way, he could come kill her and lose both women in the end. 

It was at that point that he knew she was serious. Because he could not kill his sister. And he did not want his sister to kill "his woman". 

 He had to make both happy and had been looking for a way to let Sara go. He finally saw the opportunity when she threatened to kill herself.

Sara was one person he did not want to die. He believed it was going to be a waste if she left the world because she was a very interesting child.

So he had agreed to let her go reluctantly. Even after she stabbed him that night, he still did nothing to stop her. It was at that point that he believed his sister"s words about Sara being his doom if she stuck around.

But he had also threatened her that night. He told her he would clear every record of all that happened in the past one year. But she had to keep everything to herself in return, because they were always watching and if she tried to report them to the police or tell anyone, then not just her, her whole family would also be killed. 

Sara had swore with her life to keep it to herself. All she wanted at that point was to see her family.

But he had greatly missed her when she left.

"She wants to meet you. She said she wants to meet the one who needs the painting" Fuji finally said to Medusa.

"Then let me handle it from here. Do not b.u.t.t in." Medusa warned before getting up to leave.
