Chapter 101 - Bait (2/2)
***
Muchen saw Sara got down from Song Changyu's car. He had successfully tailed them there without being noticed. When he made sure she had gotten inside, he went his way home.
Sara slumped on the chair and recalled her conversation with Changyu.
She had denied knowing anyone who bore that name. And asked why Sara was asking her. Sara noticed her hands were tightly clenched on the steering wheel.
Sara just brushed it off with vague excuses. There was silence in the car as both were lost in their thought. ”You don't mind if I play a song right?” Changyu asked.
”Not at all” Sara answered before she hit the play button. The song which played startled Sara. It was the same Classical Music her father liked. She looked at Changyu who was focused on the road without saying anything. Her father and Changyu were both hiding the fact that they knew each other. Then something big must have happened. And now, she was fully willing to uncover it. She need to uncover everything about her Father's past. About her mother's also. About Changyu's relation with all of them.
She looked at the card Changyu offered to her. ”You can reach me anytime” She had said before running her eyes over the apartment and driving off.
She was sure going to use that card.

The next morning, she reluctantly got out of bed to have breakfast with the others.
Bilike and Joreen were both eager to hear how everything went last night. ”Well, I bumped into Mr Li there.” She said.
Their eyes all shone. Jianjun's especially, since he could vaguely guess what happened. She had gone there with another man and bumped into Muchen. He didn't want to ask further. He also stopped the others from asking when he saw Sara's blush.
Sara stole a glance at her father who was focused om his food, before facing Joreen. ”Guess who else I met there Jo?”
”Who, who?” She asked eagerly.
Sara paused a bit before saying. ”Song Changyu”
Immediately the name came out, Jianjun's spoon dropped on the table.
'He took the bait' Sara thought
