Sara laughed when she heard Jianjun w.a.n.g"s question. It was the funniest thing she had ever heard.

Like Mr Li? she was even trying her best to like him as her employer. Where did her dad get that funny idea from?

Jianjun w.a.n.g just looked at her without saying anything.

"I"m sorry dad. But I just couldn"t help laughing. That was so funny" She said in-between laughter.

"So you do not like him then?" Jianjun w.a.n.g asked.

"Of course not! Why would you think that?"

Jianjun w.a.n.g sighed in relief when he heard her answer.

"That"s fine then. I was just worried for nothing"

"Why were you worried?" She asked

Jianjun w.a.n.g was silent for a while before speaking again.

"I saw the way you looked at him earlier in the restaurant."

When did she look at him? How did she look at him? She wondered. Then, she remembered when she saw him smile and stared. But she was only looking at his dimples...

"oh.. I.. I was only..." She stopped. not knowing how to put it.

"Sara..." he called as he placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Do you think I"m a bad father?" He asked.

"NO! why would you even think that?" Sara retorted immediately.

"I want you to be happy. I really do. But I do not want you to get yourself attached to someone just because they were nice to you." He said.

Sara just looked at him without saying anything. She knew that was her weak point.

"I have always known,and after watching you this past week, I became really sure. Did you think you were ever in love with Mo Jinyong?"

Sara just bent her head down and didn"t say anything.

Did she really love him? Did she even love him at all? She wondered.

"You were only sad that day. You were even sadder because of Liu Weiyoung. You easily tossed Mo Jinyong away. Do you think you would have done that if you were really in love with Mo Jinyong? Don"t you think you would have ruined his engagement party? He asked with a short laugh.

Sara hadn"t thought about this at all. When she watched those Soap Operas, during occasions like that, the victim either cried her eyes out or ruin the engagement party. But she had done none. Or was it because she was used to being treated this way that it no longer had any effect on her? Or was it because she was actually only attached to Mo Jinyong because he treated her well? And she didn"t waste time in discarding him when he wronged her?

"I want you to have a simple and happy life with a man who loves you. And that you also love fully. You"ll get suffocated being around these socialites all the time."

That was true actually, while dating Mo Jinyong, she had to look presentable at all cost. She wore formal clothing, She allowed people bully her whenever they were out together. She had to always abide by etiquettes. Although, he never took her to any parties or whatever, Even if he had taken her there, she had to dress to suit the occasion. It was all like a punishment to her.

"Was that why you always disliked Mo Jinyong?" Sara asked.

The moment he introduced himself as Mo Jinyong, her father lost all interest in him. That had been a huge blow to Jinyong because he was "perfect" and everyone was supposed to accept him.

Jianjun w.a.n.g had only supported Sara because he didn"t want to be an hindrance to her. He knew she would learn her lesson with time. He had only been surprised that it lasted longer than he had imagined.

Jianjun w.a.n.g avoided the question and just stood up.

"I want you to be happy Sara. Those people won"t give you that. If you mess with them once, they"ll crush you till you"re left with nothing." He said with a sad glint in his eyes

Sara knew he was going to brush her question off. He had always ignored answering this question about Mo Jinyong. So she also let it slide.

What was up with her father and socialites? Did they do something to him? Or were they the reason his parents died?

"Dad...."

She stood up also and held his hand. She couldn"t bring herself to ask him any of those. She only had to a.s.sume that he was trying to protect her.

"Do you think any man would genuinely love a girl like me?"

She asked sadly.

Sara was always strong, willful and matured, whenever she acted like a little girl, it always melted his heart.

He pulled her into a hug and spoke gently.

"Only stupid people would not love you"
