Chapter 51 - Acting So Arrogant (1/2)

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 pass 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 bumped 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?”
