Chapter 93 - I missed you (2/2)
Before he could begin counting, Jinyong, who was shaking in fright had already opened the door.
”C...CEO..Li..I” He prayed Muchen hadn't heard him calling him a bastard or saying he wanted to sleep with Sara there.
Muchen pushed him out of the way. He saw Sara inside, looking at him with mixed expression. ”You are always fond on getting into trouble” He said. When he noticed everything was in place with her, he pulled her out. She willingly followed.
She looked at their joined hands as they walked together. He was in front, while she behind. Then he stopped walking and turned to look at her. They were in a quiet and not-so-bright corner. But she could make out the expression on his face. One she could not read.
She pulled her hands from his and stared at him angrily. ”I don't understand you. A while back, you were happily chatting with those heiresses. Now, you are holding my hand. Don't you think it is inappropriate?”
Muchen thought back to all the girls he had conversed with that evening and a curve appeared on his mouth. ”I wasn't chatting with heiresses alone. Heirs and CEOs also” When he saw she wasn't still saying anything and still giving him an angry look, he teased ”You... are Jealous?”
”What are you talking about? Why would I be jealous of my employer? It is normal for you to know socialites and converse with them.. It has nothing to do with me” She shot back indignantly.
”I am not interested in heiresses.”
She scoffed. ”But you date them” She almost hit herself when the last part came out. What was she doing right now? She had a lot to ask him but she was busy saying irrelevant things.
He was enjoying the conversation ”Who said I dated anyone?” He thought for a while. The first name that popped into his head was Dexi. He really felt like strangling that idiot.
”I don't think Joreen is smarter than you. You should know who I am interested in.” He took a step closer and looked deep into her eyes ”You are smart enough to know who I like”
She shivered under his gaze and stammered as she moved her gaze from his. ”I.. I have to hurry back” She really had to run now.
Muchen had a lot to ask. Why she was here, How she got those wears, why she allowed Dexi hold her earlier, Why she pulled Dexi to a corner, why she had been avoiding him, why she cried that night. He had so much to ask. But the only thing that came out of his mouth, surprised the both of them.
”I missed you”
She heard Li Muchen say when she turned to walk away. His voice stopped her on her tracks. She turned to face him and confusion could clearly be seen on her face. Muchen stared straight at her. He was obviously waiting for a reply. He wondered if she missed him also. It drove him crazy that she had been with Dexi. But knowing whether she actually missed him was driving him even crazier.
'What do I say? How do I respond?' She tried to come up with something as she avoided his gaze. Her eyes kept darting sideways. She hadn't expected this sudden confession from him. Her heart was racing faster and she thought it might burst at any second.
As if he knew what she was thinking. He laughed and pulled her into a hug. 'She is confused'
”Just say you missed me too” He whispered into her ears. ”I know you did”
If she couldn't decide herself, he was going to help her do so. She had a very pleasant scent. He could feel her smooth hair on his face. Her little body on his arms. He was really hugging Sara. His Sara.
