Chapter 105 - A bigger problem (1/2)
”Mr Park?” Jianjun called in surprise when he saw an elderly man approaching the entrance to Delight.
The man who dressed plainly in trousers and a shirt and he looked to be in his 50s, looked at Jianjun for a bit before asking ”You are?” He observed him again and this time, he gasped in shock. ”Are you Jian...jun?” he asked in utter shock.
Jianjun had a shaky smile on as tears clouded his eyes. He nodded slowly to affirm his question.
Mr Park's eyes were already glistening with tears as he gradually approached Jianjun and enveloped him in a hug as he cried ”It's really you Jianjun. You are really the one.” He cried some more before continuing ”How long has it been? I couldn't even recognise you.” Jianjun hugged him back as he tried to lighten the mood. ”You've gotten old Mr park” He said.

Watching Muchen eye Cearo was an amusing sight for Sara. She wished she had a brother who was this protective of her. He had been 'interviewing' Cearo for close to 20 mins now and Sara was already getting impatient on Heya's behalf. Sara looked at Heya who gave her a sign to take Muchen away. She wasn't ready for this right now. She barely managed to come out and now she had to sit here for this question and answer session.
”Hmm, Mr Li. Sorry to interrupt. There is something I would like to tell you privately” Sara interrupted.
”Really?” His eyes brightened as he stood up. ”Alright. Come with me.” He said as he happily took the stairs.
Cearo whewed in relief when he saw the both of them going upstairs. He then looked at Heya to see her giggling. ”Your Bro is really something” He commented with a smile.
”You're not taking offense” She asked.
”Nah. It's a good thing he is protective of you. I would do same or even worse if I had a younger sister.”
Heya only smiled and said nothing. She saw the funny look Cearo was giving her and remembered she was still looking so unkempt. She hadn't taken her bath yet, her hair was a mess and she was still wearing her pink pajamas. She used her hand to brush her hair backwards as she spoke ”Sorry, I didn't know you were around. I thought it was just my bro and Sara”
He chuckled lightly ”No big deal. I like the fact that I can also see you like this.. But why is your friend here by this time?”
Heya had told him Sara was her friend— Not her coach. So it was normal for him to ask, seeing she was there this early . She didn't want to lie to him. He seemed like a nice person and she felt she had to open up to him. ”Sara is also my fitness coach.” She said gently.
He paused for a bit and nodded slightly after digesting what he just heard. ”I see.. You plan to lose weight?” He raised a brow at her.
