Hello, Mr Li

Chapter 51

Sara nodded in affirmation to her Father"s questions

"Why?" He asked in panic.

"Dad, calm down. It was an harmless hug" She said.

"Really? Then have you ever hugged any of your previous bosses?"

Sara tried imagining herself hugging them. She simply could not. Why didn"t she push him away? "He got hurt because of me. It would be unfair to push him away." She said.

"Sara, What are you going to do if Mr Li likes you?" He asked.

Sara"s heartbeat skipped when she heard him. What was he talking about? Mr Li only hugged her to apologise besides he did not really like her and was only forcing himself to because she suggested.

"Dad, you are over thinking this. Nothing is ever going to happen between us. Besides I"ve only known him for a few days."

"And you"re sure you do not like him?"

"Dad I don"t!" She denied

Jianjun just looked at her and decided to take her for her word this time. He really did not want his daughter to get entangled with those kind of people anymore.

Sara was restless the whole day having not been able to know how Muchen,Mr Chu and Bilike was doing. She lost her phone and couldn"t contact Ms Long to tell her how Mr Li was doing and the hospital Mr Chu and Bilike were taken to. She couldn"t even go to the house to ask Heya about him because Ms Long had warned her not to tell anyone. She had to join Jianjun in the kitchen to prepare lunch to help clear her head. Thankfully, it was Sunday. She didn"t have to go to the restaurant for Lunch as her father only goes to the restaurant on Sunday evenings.

They heard a knock on the living room door. She went to open it and received the greatest scare of her life when she saw The gangster boss she had met last night. "Big Sister!" He called excitedly.

Sara shushed him and looked inside to make sure Jianjun was no where in sight and asked The boss to follow her as she led him to a nearby alley which people usually do not pa.s.s through.

"What are you doing here?" She asked angrily.

"Big sister, you told me to get you a new phone today. When I got to the restaurant, it was locked so I had to find your place." He said with a smile plastered on his face

Sara covered her face with a palm in resignation. She was so stupid! She had totally forgotten about that. She did plan to tell her father the truth but changed her mind because she knew how he was going to react about her meeting with those people and Mr Li getting hurt because of them.

What if they had actually b.u.mped into her father in the restaurant after all the lies she told him?

The boss handed her a little bag which contained a brand new phone and with a happy smile on his face, he asked

"Big sister, how was your night?"

"Will you stop calling me that. Do you know how weird it sounds" She said when she looked at his stature and looked at hers. "Where is big Dong?" She asked.

"He is in the base. Why?"

"Let him know that if he tries anything funny in the future I won"t let him off"

"Is it about the issue with Mr Li?" He asked.

"Yes. So?"

"Is Mr Li our brother-in-law?" He asked. When he saw Sara staring daggers at him without saying anything, he simply said

"No problem! I"ll make sure it never happens again.... when are you coming over to the base? Blue Ra...."

"You can leave now" She interrupted.

The boss knew it was time to leave and just gave her a full ninety degrees bow before turning to leave.

When she got to her apartment, she saw an unfamiliar car parked outside. And a woman standing on the entrance with Jianjun w.a.n.g conversing.

She recognised the woman as Weiyoung"s mother. This was the first time she had ever visited their apartment. What was she looking for?

"Mrs Liu" Sara called as she moved to stand close to them.

Mrs Liu looked refined and elegant, she was in her mid forties but oozed youthfulness. She looked at Sara up and down who was wearing a little short and tee-s.h.i.+rt with her messy pony tail and slipper.

"Thank G.o.d you"re here" She said and used a hand to cover her nose like the place was disgusting to her.

"Why are you here?" Sara ignored her reaction and went straight to the point and asked.

"Go get dressed and Let"s talk somewhere else" Mrs Liu said haughtily as she turned to get into her car.

Sara looked at her father whose countenance has changed but he wasn"t saying anything. If she wanted to be arrogant, she should do that in her house. Why coming here to show how much of a sn.o.b she was? Sara thought.

"Sorry, but I"ll have to decline. I"m busy" Sara tried her best to be polite while replying since she was still an elder after all.

Mrs Liu thought she was hearing things when she heard Sara speak. Did this filthy thing just decline her? She should even be grateful that she brought her refined self to this slum to pay them a visit. She could have easily sent for her. She dared reject her?

She turned back to look at Sara and Jianjun. Annoyance could clearly be seen on her face.

"Sara, you don"t have to act so arrogant. Didn"t your father teach you to obey your elders?" She then looked at Jianjun. "Is this how you raised your daughter?"

Sara was done with being polite to this woman. She was about to say something when Jianjun placed a hands on her shoulder and asked Mrs Liu.

"Who do you think you are?"
