Mrs Liu refused to believe she had just been asked that kind of stupid question from this man.
She looked at him fiercely. Her gaze did nothing to the both of them as they just stood there, staring at her like she was not even important.
"Ah.." Mrs Liu gave a dry laugh then said "Now I see where she got her bad att.i.tude from. Blood is really thicker than water I must confess"
Sara really wanted to literally throw this woman out of this environment. It was bad enough that she looked down on them, now, she had to even insult her father?
Jianjun interrupted everyone when he laughed also.
Even Mrs Liu"s secretary and driver wondered what was wrong with these people. They had never met anyone who challenged the Liu Madam openly.
"Since we are awarding the most irresponsible parents right now, I think you deserve a plaque cause I see you"ve been doing a pretty "good" job with your daughter" He said sarcastically.
"What did you just say?" Mrs Liu could no longer pretend that everything was not p.i.s.sing her off and asked in anger.
"Weiyoung"s mother! you seem to have mistaken something. You can act all c.o.c.ky in your circle. Don"t bring that here. I do not care what you want to discuss with my daughter, but I will not let you do that. So now, you can leave. You"ve contaminated this whole environment" He had wanted to stand there till she turned to leave the place, that pride of hers, he wanted to crush it. But wasting more time with her would be unnecessary. He took Sara"s hands and led her inside the apartment.
Mrs Liu"s face was already a shade of dark purple. He even dared to call her "Weiyoung"s Mother" instead of her t.i.tle as "Mrs Liu". They had to humiliate her like this in the presence of her employee. How would these people respect her if they kept seeing scenes like this? She was going to teach them a lesson. One they wouldn"t be able to forget in a hurry. She saw a tiny looking brown-skinned girl walking towards her direction. The girl gave her a quizzical look then bowed slightly to her in greeting. Mrs Liu totally ignored her and got into her car while the Secretary told the chauffeur to drive.
Joreen watched the car leave and wondered why Mrs Liu was so angry. She had seen her picture severally on Weiyoung"s phone and on the internet also. What was she even doing here? She wondered as she entered into the apartment.
That night, Muchen opened his eyes after long hours of sleep and saw Ms Long by his side who was busy with a laptop.
"Mr Li, you"re awake. Thank G.o.d. I brought you dinner" She said as she put the laptop aside and served him food
This time, he was able to sit up easily. He looked at the open window, when he saw that it was dark already, he spoke. "You should be resting at home. Why are you still here?"
"I just wanted to make sure you have dinner. The doctor said not to wake you up and let you rest for as long as your body needed" She answered.
"Any update on Mr Chu and his son?" He asked.
"Yes, They are in X hospital. His son woke up earlier, Mr Chu regained consciousness about an hour ago. No major damages was made as I think the gangsters had planned on prolonging their a.s.sault before you arrived on scene. They"re still receiving treatment and would be out any time soon" She said
"Have you told Sara about it yet?" He asked without touching the food that was placed by his side.
"Sara? Why?" Ms Long asked. What was it with Sara every time?
"They"re friends with her family. And she saved our lives" He said
"Sara saved you life?" Ms Long asked in bewilderment. She had totally ignored everything Sara said and thought that the team who took Mr Chu and his son to the hospital had saved them. "I did not tell her anything" Ms Long said sadly.
"Really? Do you know how worried she must have been not being able to hear from them? What were you thinking?" He scolded.
"She got you into trouble. And she wasn"t remorseful about that" Ms Long tried to justify herself
Muchen raised a brow to look at her and asked
"So you make decisions on my behalf now? Did she pay the gang to beat me up? So how did she get me into trouble? You are so "concerned" about me that you do not see that two lives were saved? Or you are so old now,your thoughts are now archaic?"
Ms Long was frightened. This was the first time he actually scolded her like this. He was always pleased by whatever she did. "I"m sorry Mr Li. I was only concerned about you. If the Chairm..."
Muchen did not wait for her to land before he spoke. "Inform her now! If she still hasn"t gotten a phone, then go over to her place."
Joreen was admiring Sara"s new phone when a call came in. Sara did not know what to do. She felt bad lying to them about how she got the phone since the boss had gotten her a rather expensive phone instead. That"s why she hated these gangs. They always overdid things when trying to garner favour from someone.
Sara took the call. "Who is speaking?" She asked.
It was quiet for a few seconds before she heard a voice speak. "it"s Ms Long... Mr Chu and his son are both awake. I"ll text you the hospital"s address immediately."
"What about M...." Sara did not finish before she realised that the call had ended. "Why is she still mad?" She wondered. Sara immediately received the text message. She tried calling back to ask about Mr Li but it was unreachable.
"I have informed her" Ms Long told Muchen who was eating
He put down his spoon and looked at her.
"Did she ask about me?" He asked expectantly.
Ms Long felt guilty about how she had treated Sara earlier and she had been too proud to apologise that was why she ended the call abruptly and chose to text her instead.
How was she supposed to tell Mr Li that she did not even give Sara a chance to talk.
Ms Long looked back at him and shook her head. "She didn"t"
Did she really lie? Besides, with Sara"s nonchalant att.i.tude, she may likely have not bothered asking about Mr Li. she a.s.sumed.
Muchen just nodded as a sad smile appeared on his face.
"Earlier, what did you mean by "she got you into trouble and she wasn"t remorseful about that"""?
He asked.
