Chapter 291 - Do not butt in (1/2)
Muchen did not know how to feel or react to everything. She had suffered a whole lot. No wonder she did not act like most ladies and also have an unfriendly attitude most times.
If for anything, her revelation made him love her even more. He had never met any lady as strong as her—Someone who went through hell and was still able to smile brightly.
He was going to help her wipe away those feelings and also wipe out the people who had caused her such.
She could trust him on that.
He reluctantly left the room to another room that looked like an office and checked his mail with the computer.
Just as he had expected, his secretary, Mr Hwang had sent him everything he needed to know about Delight's Park Chen.
He considered making a list of everyone he was supposed to get back at for Sara. But he trusted his brain to keep a proper record and deal with them.
He replied to the mail and sent Mr Hwang some details.
He wanted to fully dig on Jin Medusa now.
If he could get enough information on her, he believed he could also get some on her useless brother. Sara had told him she did not know his full name. They only called him Fuji which was obviously not his real name.
Once he was done with Mr Hwang, he remembered there was another important thing he needed to do so he called Sara's father, Mr Wang.
The ring did not take long before the call was answered. It was as if Jianjun had been expecting his call.
After greeting him and exchanging pleasantries, he went on to say.
”Sara is currently asleep. I'm sorry, but she may not be able to return home today”
It was already Past 12 in the morning, she was asleep plus, it would take them approximately two hours to get to their place. It was going to be too stressful for her right now. So he wanted to allow her sleep peacefully.
Jianjun was quiet after he heard him.
He had been waiting for Sara the entire night. And had a mixed feeling about her sleeping with him. But he had to remind himself that she was a grown up now and could take care of herself.
He sighed before agreeing. ”Alright. Did she eat?” He remembered to ask.
Muchen told him she had eaten and answered other minor questions Jianjun had asked.
When it looked like there was nothing left to say, Muchen broke the silence and said..
”Thank you Mr Wang.”
”For what?” Jianjun asked in confusion. He should be thanking Muchen for taking good care of his daughter and treating her well instead. Was their roles reversed?
”For everything you have done for Sara. For showing her a whole lot of love. You are a great father” Muchen turned emotional as he praised him, and even Jianjun heard him sniff.
Muchen knew that most children do not have a good relationship with their parents, especially the father–daughter relationship.
But Jianjun had always been there for Sara. It was another reason she could live well despite all she had gone through.
If her father had been and asshole like most fathers, he believed she would not have been able to recover.
”She is my daughter. So of course I should love her.”
Jianjun said with a short laugh.
”I should thank you for taking good care of her. It's rare to find a man like you.” Jianjun praised back.
Both of them kept on praising each other while laughing at what the other was saying.
Muchen did not want to tell him he had asked her to marry him and she had agreed. He wanted Sara to tell them herself.
He knew women liked dropping that particular bomb and he did not want to ruin the fun for her.
Jianjun also considered telling Muchen about Sara's mother. But that was not something he could just start talking about on the phone.
”When you are less busy one of these days. You should come over”
Muchen quickly accepted the offer. He was going to do anything to make Mr Wang not change his mind about him.

In Grand Castle Hotel, Fuji held a glass of wine in his hand and continued to twirl the stem around with a dark expression on his face. His legs were crossed, and he seemed to be lost on thought.
Snake stood in front of him and knew that with the look on his eyes, there was trouble!
”She must think I cannot do anything to her”
Fuji muttered.
But was she wrong?
He was not sure he could touch her now. Because aside from the fact that she was smarter now and could easily expose them, he did not want to bring any harm to his sister.
