Chapter 130 - A nice bug (1/2)

”Mr..Li.. you.. you were.. awake?”

He exerted a little force which caused her to fall on the couch, he made her adjust, so she was lying down with her back to him.

The shirt she was wearing rode up higher as a result of the sudden movement so she tried to adjust it but couldn't since the couch barely contained the both of them.

”Don't worry, I won't look” He said.

She was completely tensed. She could feel his warm breath on her neck and could also clearly hear her racing heart. His hand was over her waist, trying to support her from falling. The other, served as a pillow for her head.

”Mis..mister Li” Her instinct said RUN. But she didn't want to, she also didn't know what to say.

Sara desperately needed to kill of the awkward silence. The painting hanging on the wall opposite them caught her attention ”It's... a beautiful painting” She commented even though she could not really find what was pretty about those colour strokes.

”You love paints?” He asked softly.

Sara thought for a while before saying. ”Actually, I have no interest in paintings. I just felt I should say something” She realised if she said she did like paints, he might ask her questions then she would end up embarrassing herself.

She heard what she could make out to be a laugh come from Muchen. ”It was a gift from my grandfather when be was still alive. I really didn't value it at that time until I realised it was worth millions of dollars”He said.

”What? Mill...million of dollars for that thing?” she asked in bewilderment.

She heard him chuckle a bit. ”Exactly how I felt when I first realised that. I hope I'll be able to pass it on to my grandson one day too.”

”Why not granddaughter? You're being gender biased” She chipped in.

”She might sell it off and go shopping with the money or she may likely want her own portrait all over her place instead of some old painting. Girls can be funny most times”

Sara couldn't help giggling.

Another round of silence before Muchen broke it off this time.

”You were supposed to tell me how to punish those people. I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep comfortably if you do not tell me”

”That's unnecessary. It will all die down soon...I think”

”It is very necessary you don't just know it yet” He said then wriggled his body to adjust.

”But, you really believe Liu Weiyoung has a hand in all of these? I don't see how it relates to her though”

”How long were you friends?” He asked.

”Almost 10years I think.”

”Was she always good to you?”
