Heya smiled happily as she looked at her phone.
"Li Heya"s fan club". The members reb.u.t.ted every ill comment about her. A lot of people had been motivated by her courage and took her as their role model.
"I"m slim yet lack confidence. Wish I was like Li Heya."
"Her family is rich, she"s pretty and super talented. What a blessing"
"Her voice is superb. I almost cried when I heard her."
"She perfectly fits Jin Cearo. Someone please tell me they are dating"
"I"m fat and always hides myself indoors. I wish I could come out like her."
"What a refres.h.i.+ng sight. She should definitely join the entertainment world"
Anyone who tried to say something negative were violently backlashed. And just like that, most people continued praising her. Some encouraged her to open her private channel and drop videos of her singing. She began to regret since she knew everything would be taken down soon.
She spoke to Sara. But Sara heard nothing. She felt like she had committed a grave sin. What sin did she commit anyway? She told him the truth. That she had plans for Sunday night. Why was she feeling down then? She had to do this. She only had to meet with Miss Song first. It was important to her. Then she would settle this whole thing on Monday.
But going with Dexi, was something she had been rethinking. Was it really worth going there with him? But how else was she supposed to enter? She pushed every other thought from her head. She had to achieve this first.
"That was fast" Heya pouted.
Sara finally looked at her. "What did you say?"
Heya showed her her phone"s screen. "They"ve taken it all down"
Sara patted her back gently. "At least you know a lot of people love you. And you"ve inspired a lot of them also. I"m really proud of you"
Heya held Sara"s hands and met her eyes with a firm gaze.
"Sara...I think... I want to go to college"
Sara was about to answer their apartment when she received a call from a strange number. Who turned out to be Dexi. He obviously needed an award in stalking.
"What is it this time?"
She could hear excitement in his tone when he spoke. "You are always not happy to hear from me"
"I don"t think I have any reason to be" She answered bluntly.
"Are you free now? Let"s go get you something to wear tomorrow"
Sara lightly hit her head against the wall. She had totally forgotten she would be needing an appropriate outfit for the occasion.
"Are you there?" He asked when he didn"t hear any response.
Sara cleared her throat and spoke."Did I mention I had none? Besides, why do you think I would want to shop with you?"
"You"re my date. of course, you need to look the prettiest tomorrow"
"Don"t delude yourself Mr Mo. We"re both using each other right now. And I"ll take care of my appearance" She cut the call when she was done speaking.
Dexi chuckled. If all girls were like Sara, the world would have been quite an interesting place.
When Sara entered the apartment, She saw Jianjun looking straight at her. "I told you I would take care of our apartment" He said.
"I know. Just a.s.sume I"m lending it to you then" Sara answered and sat beside him. "I still have more than enough left."
He didn"t know how to feel about Sara transferring her money to him. "Dad, you have been taking care of me for 25 years. It"s only normal that I do so now."
His eyes shone "24 years Sara!" He corrected.
She sighed and nodded. "24 years"
Heya was glad Sara had already left the house before her mother arrived there. She was looking for the girl on the video and picture who had made her daughter expose herself to the public.
"Can"t you see she"s a bad influence? What was Muchen thinking, hiring her as your coach?" Dana blew up.
"Mum please stop it! Sara did nothing wrong. She"s my friend. It was my decision to sing there"
"You now take her side? That girl cease to be your coach from today!"
"MUM you can"t do that."
"I can"t? I can do anything. I am Jiang Dana. Do you know the implication of that? To your father, to your brother, to me. Even to yourself. Have you thought of what might happen if your grandmother hears about this?"
"PLEASE!" Heya raised her voice. Which startled the both of them, including the maids watching from their various hideout. "That"s all you care about. Do you ever think of me as your daughter?" Tears flowed down her cheeks freely. She didn"t bother stopping them.
Dana"s mouth was agape. "She...she also taught you to speak to your mother like that?" Dana pointed a finger at her in disbelief.
"Sara did nothing wrong. You should be grateful to her that she did something you all couldn"t do" She tapped her chest and spoke with a husky voice. "I... I really wanted to die. You all neglected me. You never cared how I lived or how I felt. You just wanted me to lose weight at all cost. When it wasn"t working, you completely ignored me and just fed me with food every time. You gave up on me! Don"t you feel ashamed?" She choked on her tears but continued "Don"t you feel ashamed that your only daughter prefers to stay with her brother than her parents?"
