Chapter 157 - Blind date. (2/2)

So what happens to her when she decides to stay beside Muchen? She would have to prove to them that she was good for their son. His mother, father, grandmother. She didn't even know how Heya would react if she found out about her feelings for Muchen. Minde didn't like her. She wasn't sure how Hoy felt about her even though he had helped her three times.

”I... really have to leave now.” She turned to leave but was suddenly taken by surprise when she felt Muchen give her a backhug.

She stood still and blinked a couple of times. Trying to send the tears back home.  She was afraid that staying here a little longer would send her emotions crashing.

”Sara please...” She heard his deep pleading voice. ”When I said I loved you, I was ready for all of these.” He turned her to face him.

”I... I don't know what to do.. I have never been in this kind of situation before. What if I suddenly meet your grandmother one day?” She asked sadly with her face looking down.

”Just do you. Be yourself. Your real self” He said.

”My real self?” She asked with a hint of amusement in her voice.

Muchen got what she was saying and chuckled. ”Please, whenever you meet my people, bring out your NICE real self” he emphasised on the nice which made her laugh.

”I don't want you looking sad” He said, pulling her into a hug.

”Is she that frightening?” Sara asked as she hugged him back.

”Hmm.. She is just an older version of you. But a bit dictatorial” He replied in sacarsm.

Sara's face contorted. ”What do you mean?”

Muchen chuckled. ”Nothing.” He kissed her cheek loudly when she tried to pull away from the hug.

Luckily for her, his phone rang. When he took it and checked the caller's ID, he said to her ”It's the nice bug. Just listen. He is going to bug me to death now” Muchen placed the phone on the speaker and left it on the table. While he pulled Sara to sit with him on the couch.

”Bro. What's up? You don't even bother to check up on me. Not fair”  Minde whined.

Muchen could imagine Minde's pouting face.

”What's wrong?” Muchen asked.

”It's the evil queen dowager again!.” Which was none other than Li Sun.

”I was asked to evacuate this house. I have to go back home and start going to work every morning.” His tone changed like he was crying ”I can't live like this.”

”You should just do as she says. You don't want to get on her bad side”

”Ah. I know telling you won't be any useful.  So, you are going to the blind date tomorrow?”

Muchen's eyes widened when he remembered Sara was still there. He looked at her to see she was glaring at him. Muchen faked a cough and laughed. ”I don't know what you're talking about. When are you moving to your place?” He changed the topic and tried to snatch the phone from the table but Sara gave him the 'You-won't-dare-it' look so he stopped and only prayed Minde would move from that topic.

”What do you mean you don't know? You're going on a date with the pretty lawyer tomorrow. Or....”

”Minde!” Muchen suddenly interrupted. ”Sara is here say hello to her.”  Since he didn't get the gist directly, he only hoped Minde would get it this time.

”Sara? She is there? Can she hear me?” Minde asked.

”Yes” Sara was the one who answered this time.

”Oh.. Sister-in....” Minde stuttered. Followed by an awkward laugh when Sara said ”You were speaking with Mr Li about a blind date just now.”

”Me? Date? When?” He feigned ignorance. Then spoke up ”Oh.. Yes.. That is..some..blind people are..having a date in his hotel. Yes, his hotel. So we just called it a blind date. And you know, he has to be there as the hotel owner” Minde lied. ”Okay bye” He ended the call abruptly. Leaving Muchen to his fate.

Muchen *facepalm*

Sara ”_”
