Chapter 190 - I love you Jianjun Wang (1/2)
”So if I understand what you're trying to say....it simply means you want us all to throw a party for your grandmother?” His uncle Li Han asked in obvious surprise.
Muchen nodded in agreement. He looked at his parents and Minde's parents. They all have similar expression on their faces.
”I would really like all of you to put in your best and help with whatever you can.”
”I don't understand. Where did this idea suddenly pop out from?” His mother asked.
His father didn't bother to say anything and only looked proudly at his son.
Muchen scratched his head and literally bit his tongue to stop himself from saying 'it was my girlfriend's idea'
He smiled at his mother before asking gently. ”You'll help out right?” He turned to also look at his Aunt, letting her know the question was also for her.
They all thought it was a bad idea. No one knew how Li Sun was going to react to the sudden idea of a birthday party. But since Muchen of all people was raising it, they had to have faith in whatever he was planning. So they all agreed.
On Christmas eve, they were going to throw Li Sun a suprise birthday party for her. The problem now was, no one knew what she liked so it would be difficult when choosing a gift.

It was the first time Sara was seeing their new apartment. It wasn't as bad as she had expected considering the fact that the rent wasn't very expensive unlike most other buildings inside of town.
It made her wonder why someone hadn't rented the apartment before them or were they just lucky?
She concluded it was probably because the place functioned more as a business centre which was actually a good thing for them because since the two-storey building was located in a rather busy area, the entire first storey served as stores for businesspeople. There were four large stores which sold wines, knockoff wears, cosmetics and the last one that had been rented by Jianjun to serve as his new restaurant.
She hadn't checked out the store yet but she was able to deduce that it was quite bigger than his former restaurant.
Thankfully, he had saved much to get some chairs, tables and whatever was needed to start up a small-scale restaurant.
She really liked the fact that her father wouldn't be returning late from the restaurant since it was just downstairs.
She perfectly understood what was wrong with the place when she noticed the place didn't have an elevator and so, she had to take the flight of stairs to get to the first floor.
She thanked her body that was used to things like this but began to think twice since Joreen and her father were both going to be subjected to this on a daily basis.
Taking it as a little exercise, she got to the first floor in a few minutes.”So much stairs. They could build a house with it” She grumbled.
There were four rooms on each row directly facing each other.
She sighed at the thought of having seven neighbours.
She stopped in front of the '401' sign on the second door by her left and used the doorknob to gently open the door, knowing it was not going to be locked.
”You're here”
Sara first heard Cixi's voice and bowed with a smile to greet her aunt who was busy mopping the floor. ”Yes”
Sara ran her eyes around the two bedroom apartment. The sitting room was wide and spacious. Painted plainly in white and nude.
