When Sara got down from the car, She b.u.mped 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 w.a.n.g.

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 h.e.l.l. 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 blus.h.i.+ng.

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"
