Hello, Mr Li

Chapter 77

Ms Long sat in her car, still contemplating whether to tell Muchen or not.

But she knew it was necessary. Despite how she had treated Sara. Sara still came to her rescue. She felt really terrible and knew she had to swallow her pride and apologize to her.

"I got into a little trouble today" She said

Muchen who was still busy flipping through some files didn"t raise his head when he spoke. "Send me the details. I"ll handle it for you"

Ms Long was touched when she heard him. A small smile appeared on her face. Working for Mr Li, a lot of persons she met with had told her he wouldn"t mind discarding her and she should stop being a loyalist. He didn"t even bother asking what happened but agreed to handle it.

"Mr Li... actually, Sara....got hit" She said.

His hand that was flipping the file went still. He fully concentrated on the conversation. "What did you say? Say it again" He demanded.

"She tried to stop Zhang Hansong from bullying me then she got hit" Ms Long repeated.

"Zhang Hansong? He also bullied you? Where did this happen" He stood up abruptly and reached for his coat.

"We were in delight having lunch" Ms Long replied.

"Delight? What was she doing there? Where is she right now?" He left the office in a hurry without even glancing at his employees who were greeting him.

"She...she went with Mo Dexi."

Muchen"s footsteps stopped. "Mo Dexi was still troubling her? And she actually went with him?" "Where are they?"

"I think they went inside the VVIP car park. I"m currently at the VIP park" she said.

"Sara w.a.n.g! I think I have to tie you up and keep you in my place to stop you from getting into trouble"

Sara finally sighed in relief when she left there. Today had been a bad day for her. She only hoped the day would not get worse. Ah! It just did. She had to walk a longer distance before getting a bus. And also had to walk another longer distance before getting home. She was already tired. Even the bag was quiet heavy for her.

She stomped her feet on the ground angrily. "If not for that Mo b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Ms Long would have dropped me off" She said and kicked an empty beer can lying on the street. Speaking about Ms Long, her eyes widened. She had to tell Ms Long to not tell Mr Li about what had happened today. She must tell her not to. She took out her phone from her back pack and found 3 missed calls from Mr Li and a text from her father. She forgot she had silenced her phone before she entered the restaurant.

When she saw the missed calls, her heart skipped. She was doomed! Ms Long must have informed him already. She opened the message from Jianjun first. She didn"t want to call Mr Li back. What if he scolded her. She read Jianjun"s text..

"I hope you are shopping well. You"ll be embarra.s.sed if you come back home without shopping bags *winks*"

When she saw the message, she didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. Shopping bags? Let her be embarra.s.sed then!

She then saw another message from Heya. It must have been the one she was asking her about.

"Sara, Are you well? I"m really bothered that you suddenly left the gym. I hope it"s not a bad news. And I hope you are not sick"

Sara smiled when she read the text. But it was short lived because there was an incoming call from Mr Li.

She was really not willing to take this call. What if he shouted at her. When she saw Ms Long there earlier. She had wanted to leave. She didn"t like meddling in other people"s businesses except on special occasions. But then she heard Hansong mention Mr Li. And asked if Ms Long was warming his bed. She didn"t know when she dropped her things over at the counter and went there. She had actually wanted to give him a good beating. But she had to restrain herself because she didn"t want to cause trouble there.

"Sara where are you? Why were you ignoring my calls? Are you okay?" He threw the questions at her immediately she took the call.

"Mr Li.. I.. I"m okay. Why were you calling?" she asked. "He must have not been aware" She was finally relaxed

He sighed in relief. "She sounds fine"

"If you were okay then why weren"t you taking my calls? Or... are you with someone?" He tightened his grip around the steering when he asked.

"No. I"m heading to the bus stop now" She answered.

Muchen smiled. His hands relaxed. "She really didn"t go with him"

"Where are you? Wait there! I"ll come pick you up now"

"Ah! Mr Li. No!" She firmly rejected. She didn"t want him to see her like this. She was not properly dressed, had a bruise on her lip. She knew she was a mess.

"Why?" He asked.

"I... I.. I"m at the bus stop now" She blurted out a lie.

"Sara. You"re not a good liar. I guess you"re taking the same route I"m on now. I just pa.s.sed the nearest bus stop from Delight. Don"t move an inch" He hung up on her after speaking.

"What? nearest bus stop from Delight?" Then he must be aware. "goodness! Why was today like this?"

Soon, she saw his car coming and braced herself. She was going to lie. Make excuses, whatever it was for him to not see her as a troublemaker.

He got down from the car and walked straight to where she was standing. The first thing he did was to collect the bag from her hand and placed it in the back seat.

Sara was uncomfortable with the way she looked. Her head was down and she tried to use both hands to cover the ripped parts of her Jean.

"Sara... " He called gently.

"Mr Li I"m sorry. This is not how I usually dress. I... I just wanted to stroll on these today. And I didn"t mean to hit that guy earlier. He... he was saying un-nice things about you. And I didn"t mean to ignore your calls. My phone was silent" She blurted out before he could say anything else. "Wait! why was she apologizing about the way she looked and ignoring his calls?" She wondered.

Muchen just smiled at her. He had been thinking she was with Dexi that was why his calls were ignored. So she had actually hit him because he was saying "un-nice" things about him? "Where does she get her vocabulary from?"

Muchen stretched his hands and took off her Cap to look at her face properly. He saw the little cut on her lips and raised his hands to touch it gently. His touch startled Sara and she blinked a couple of times and raised her head to look at his face.

"The only thing you did wrong was. .h.i.tting him just twice" He said.
