Li Heya was still standing close to the back door. After summoning all of her courage to come out, she still found it difficult to go in there. What if people laughed at her? Or looked at her weirdly?
She hated those looks the more. It was as if they were telling her that she did not belong in this world.
Li Muchen noticed her unease. Of course, he could tell at first glance, what his sister was thinking about.
He held her hand and encouraged her
"Li Heya, remember, no one can dare bully you!"
"I know, they won"t dare bully me when you are here. But you won"t always be here with me. So what happens when you are not around?" She asked sadly.
"You have Sara. She won"t let anyone do so!" he a.s.sured her softly.
"It"s not like she could possibly do anything to them, she is just a fragile girl" Heya countered.
Li Muchen did not know when he laughed out loud.
Fragile girl? he thought. Anyways, merely looking at Sara, one could easily a.s.sume such. She looked so small and innocent. That was actually why he had been intrigued that day. He wondered whether it was this little girl that actually beat up both heavy built bodyguards..
"Why are you laughing?" Heya asked.
He stopped laughing and place a hand on her shoulder as he spoke.
"Look, whenever you are alone with Sara, just say a silent prayer to ask G.o.d not to send anyone to bully you."
"Yea, I do pray for that always" she said
"But this time, the prayer would not be for you.... But for them!"
He turned to look at where Sara had been standing. She had taken a few steps away from the car to let the both of them speak. He knew that Heya was still not too familiar with Sara, and the best motivation Heya should get now, should come from the one who she trusted the most.
They both saw Sara staring into the distance and wondered what she was looking at.
The street lights and lights from the stores around, enabled them to see that she was looking at a person who was staring back at her.
Although, Heya didn"t know who that was, Muchen knew quite well, since he had been in her engagement party.
That was where he actually saw her for the very first time. He had no idea she had been in a relations.h.i.+p with Minde, neither did he meet her any day. He was only able to connect the dots, the moment he saw Sara there.
Sara turned to face Li Muchen and Heya.
"Let"s go in" she said as she walked to where they both stood and took Heya"s hand.
Li Muchen looked at Sara who was standing beside him. He liked it whenever she was this close to him. Because he was always towering above her. He had the urge to laugh when he realized he could see the centre of her head. That was when he also realized that Sara and Heya where about the same height.
"Do you know her?" Heya asked when she turned to see Weiyoung who was walking towards their direction.
Sara nodded. "I know her, but she is not important"
Since Weiyoung was close by, she clearly heard what Sara had said and stopped on her tracks.
She felt deeply humiliated. She was not important?
Throughout the previous week, she had not been thinking straight, Since she heard about Mo Dexi and Li Muchen being interested in Sara, she had been feeling uneasy. She really wanted to be sure that Mo Jinyong was over thinking things and no man in his right senses would date a girl like Sara. After receiving the information that a Car usually picks Sara up from her house in the morning and drops her off at the restaurant every noon, She had wanted to see for herself, to know who the person actually was. So she freshened up and came here since noon. But unfortunately, Sara didn"t show up. She waited the entire noon and had just decided to step down from her car to receive a fresh air when she suddenly saw Sara. When she also saw Li Muchen behind her, she was startled and was about turning to where her car was parked to leave immediately before he sees her, but Li Muchen turned to also face her. Now, she had no choice but to meet with them. So she decided to do just that.
But Sara had to embarra.s.s her?
Heya nodded, and was following Sara inside the restaurant with Muchen behind them when Weiyoung suddenly spoke.
"CEO Li?"
They all stopped on their tracks. What was she trying to do this time? Sara wondered.
They turned to look at her direction and she finally walked up to where they were standing
