Chapter 109 - Busybody (2/2)
Minde thought for a moment before responding. ”I do not think the shares dropped, neither do I think you're in some kind of scandal or family problem. But....” His eyes shone brightly as he snapped his fingers. ”Wait! Is this about sister in law?”
Muchen smiled unconsciously. He liked the sound of that. ”Stop being such a busybody. Are you here to distract yourself from thinking about your ex girlfriend getting pregnant for another man?” He teased.
Minde laughed. ”If he was a little bit better or cuter than me then I would have been a little bit sad. Only stupid people will date Mo Jinyong”
Muchen smiled a bit before something settled in and he frowned. ”Repeat the last sentence” He demanded.
Minde wondered what was up with his brother and was about repeating it again before he remembered that Sara had dated Jinyong and he had just indirectly called Sara, stupid.
He smiled awkwardly. ”You know I didn't mean that.”
Muchen glared at him and scanned through a file on his desk.
”But about Sara. How is it going with you both?” Minde asked inquisitively.
”She's...” Muchen didn't know what to say concerning their current relationship so he settled with ”She's okay”.
He dropped the file and looked at Minde seriously. ”While you were with Weiyoung, did you by chance hear anything from her about Sara?”
Minde paused and tried to recall. ”Now that I think about it...there was a certain time I was a bit curious about Sara and asked about her from Weiyoung but she said something I didn't take note of back then. Something like...” He paused for a while again to remember. Muchen was almost dying of curiosity, as every second felt like an hour.
”She said something like Sara is not who she appeared to be. And I should stay away from her whenever I see her. I guess she was right after all. Judging from how she beat up my bodyguards at that time. Don't you think she is a bit strange? Why would a girl know how to fight like that?” Minde wondered. He was also beginning to get curious.
Muchen was quite for a while as he pondered upon the question. When he saw Minde also lost in thought, he snapped him back to reality. ”Focus! Sara has nothing to do with you so mind your business”
”Alright, Alright.” Minde eyed him. ”About Changyu, how was your meeting with her? Did she agree to sell the building to you?”
”How did you know about the building?” Muchen asked.
”Is there anything about you that I do not know?” Minde winked at him.
”She hasn't concluded. I have a feeling she doesn't want to.”
”You're all after the building because a redevelopment is going to happen around that area soon. So why would she sell it at this critical time?”
Muchen shook his head. ”I do not think that is the case”
”Why has she been keeping that dilapidated building anyway? Or maybe she's been keeping it for this very moment?”
”What do you know about the building?” Muchen asked.
”I heard it had been a 5-star restaurant but was closed down by the government due to some reasons. After that, the Songs bought the land. And a couple of years later, while Changyu was still abroad, she bought the land from her parents without them knowing it was her.”
Muchen nodded. He thought he was going to get a new information from Minde but it was what he knew already. ”Do you know anything about the previous owner?”
Minde shook his head.”No”
Talking about the Songs suddenly reminded Muchen of how Sara had been searching for Changyu the night before. What was up with her anyway?
