She bowed slightly to greet the both of them but when she raised her head, she almost died of a heart attack when she finally recognised who the man was.
It was none other than Zhang Hansong!
The man she had slapped in Delight who tried to bully Ms Long.
"You! Can"t you see we"re in the middle of a discussion? Get lost!" Hansong ordered angrily.
"This idiot still hasn"t changed"
Sara smirked but she tried her best to hide her face from him. She didn"t want to disappoint her father.
Sara used a hand to cover the corner of her face so he wouldn"t see her.
"The admin asked me to come in" She said in an indifferent tone which seemed to enrage him the more.
"I said go out!" He ordered again.
"Michael. You should leave now. I asked her to come in. You can"t do just whatever you like here. So please leave" The admin said to Hansong.
Michael? Sara tried not to laugh. So this was exactly what her father was talking about.
So Hansong was also here for the cla.s.s? What if he recognised her? She didn"t want any more trouble now.
"Mr Gold. You have to hand me the certificate no matter what. I have been here for over three months now. I can"t keep coming to thus d.a.m.n place because of a useless piece of paper" Hansong hissed.
"It"s no one"s fault. You keep failing the tests. We can"t just hand you a certificate just because you asked for it. No matter how much you are willing to pay. We believe in transparency just like this gla.s.s office" Mr Gold said with a smile.
Hansong would have been saved from this embarra.s.sment if only he had left when he was asked to but now, another person heard their conversation.
Sara tried not to laugh. She used a hand to m.u.f.fle whatever sound that threatened to come out. It was a good thing that he hadn"t recognised her. She hoped for it to remain that way.
"How did you expect me to pa.s.s the tests when I didn"t even know it was a test? Why did you have to suddenly test me with someone on the streets? Instead of giving me a normal paper test?" He complained.
Mr Gold looked at him like he was the dumbest person in the world before saying "I have someone to attend to right here." He used a hand to gesture at Sara.
Sara on the other hand prayed she wouldn"t have to repeat like Hansong. They couldn"t afford to just throw away the deposit fee like that.
In anger, Hansong stomped out of the office.
"Sorry about that." Mr Gold apologized with a smile before asking her to sit.
"You must be Alice" He said.
In a split second, Sara was confused but then, she remembered that she was Alice so she nodded.
He looked at her before saying politely "You don"t nod. You answer"
Sara sighed. Here goes it!
"I am Alice Feng" She replied with a forced smile.
Mr Gold smiled warmly at her "My name is Jerry Gold. The administrator. You can call me Mr Gold."
Sara almost nodded but she stopped. She didn"t know how to answer to that so she simply said a "oooh.."
He looked through his computer and smirked. It was obvious she was using a fake ident.i.ty like most of the people there.
"Mr Gold... Am I...going to be attending the same cla.s.s with the man that just left here?" Sara asked.
"Why? You don"t want to?" He asked back as he raised his head to look at her.
Sara shook her head.
He raised a brow at her to remind her that she was supposed to speak not use her head.
Sara sighed in frustration "Can you just please.... Jesus! I haven"t even started taking the cla.s.ses yet." Sara complained unhappily.
He chuckled. There goes why she needed the cla.s.s!
"Your cla.s.s already begun Ms Feng. And No. The ladies and gentlemen are taught differently. There are some things both genders need to learn discreetly. You"ll be starting with the new batch in two days" He answered smoothly.
Sara sighed in relief. But then, he continued.
"The young man that just left is going to be in the same batch with you. So you"ll definitely b.u.mp into each other when there is a general cla.s.s." He had noticed how she tried to hide from him earlier and smiled.
Sara but her nails nervously and with a reminder from him, she stopped it.
As they went on with their conversation, he let her know the cla.s.ses would be held three times in a week, told her to be punctual and to get along with everyone. It was all going to be a part of her final a.s.sessment.
He handed her a manual to go through and when he was finally done with his long speech, Sara rejoiced within her and sighed in relief.
After a tour around the place by the lady earlier, she finally left the building.
On the bus ride home, she received a call from Boyfriend Li"s international phone number.
It brought a big smile to her face when she saw his call because she hadn"t hear from him since he traveled and she had had a nightmare about terrorist. She plugged in her earphone to her ear and took the call.
"h.e.l.lo Girlfriend w.a.n.g" He said in a delighted tone.
Sara blushed and used a hand to cover her mouth.
"Mr Li... Hi!" She answered.
"I think I actually prefer Boyfriend Li." He said with a laugh. "Sorry I couldn"t call you last night. We arrived here pretty late and there was a meeting I had to attend. By the time I was done, it was already late in Country B and I didn"t want to disturb your sleep" He said.
He heard Sara sigh in relief "I thought something bad happened. I don"t like country V" She complained.
"Country V probably doesn"t like you too" He laughed. "You"re out?"
He asked when he heard the background noises.
"Oh yea. I"m in a bus" She answered.
"Bus?" He asked again. Sara could hear his displeased tone. "Why a bus? Where is the chauffeur?" He asked.
Sara then remembered that she was supposed to be "working out" with Heya now and even if she was on her way home, she was supposed to make use of the car.
She didn"t want him to know Heya collapsed the previous day. She also didn"t want him to know that she was going to be taking those cla.s.ses.
She thought of something to say and as she was thinking, she accidentally accepted a video call from Muchen.
She smiled when she saw his face but when she saw her face at the bottom corner, she gasped and ended the video call.
"What was that? Did you cut your hair?" He asked in shock when he saw her short hair.
"And why are you looking so pretty? Where are you going to? By chance....are you going out on a date? Are you already cheating on me Sara?" He threw a string of questions at her.
"No!" Sara immediately denied with a shout which caused the others in the bus to look at her unhappily.
"What happened to your hair?" He asked again.
Sara giggled. She knew Muchen loved playing with her long hair. He must have been really shocked when he saw the Bob.
She decided to play with him a bit
"Yes. I did cut my hair" She answered.
She had not expected to get home and suddenly receive a delivery of different hair care products and a message from Muchen telling her to make sure her hair grows back before he returns to the country.
