Sara ran outside the park and out of the Mos residence. She was too embarra.s.sed to face Muchen. What was she thinking? She had just told him he was like a brother to her and she went on to kiss him? She had even pulled him down and stretched to meet his lips. At that time when they broke the kiss, her senses finally clicked. She couldn"t look at him. She just couldn"t. Her head was down. That was when she saw her clutch bag on the ground. She had even dropped her bag unknowingly when he kissed her. How was she supposed to pick it up now. It was too embarra.s.sing.
Muchen picked it up and handed it over to her. She didn"t raise her head when she took it from him.
He couldn"t stop his grin as he whispered in her ears. "That was very sisterly of you"
She raised her head to glare at him. But all she could see was his moist lips. She shook her head to clear her thoughts and ran away from him. She knew she might do something crazy if she continued to stand with him there. She didn"t want to have another taste of that sweet poison.
Muchen laughed when he saw her running from him. "She is cute". He had totally been taken unaware. He was too excited. Sara had just kissed him willingly. It meant she really liked him too. He was no longer going to be patient with her. He had to step up his game.
When she reached outside the Mansion. She realised just how much mistake she had made. It was already very late and there was no way she could find a taxi around there, as it was a secluded area. Dexi was supposed to drop her off. But now, she could not go back to ask him to. Neither could she go back to Muchen. Both options would be very embarra.s.sing.
She was happy she wasn"t wearing a heel. After it almost twisted her ankle at home, she decided to change into one of her sneakers. But after all her effort, today was still a waste. Her dress was even ruined. A dress she was supposed to return. What was she going to do. She noticed a car"s headlight behind her. Her heart sank as she imagined it was Muchen. She prayed a silent prayer for it to not be him. And thankfully, it wasn"t him but Song Changyu.
She had been contemplating whether to pick Sara up or not. She knew it was going to be difficult for her to get a taxi there. And was also aware that she was trying to run from Muchen, whose car was not very far behind hers.
"I"ll give you a ride" She spoke through the open window.
Sara"s eyes brightened when she saw her. Wasn"t this the same Changyu she had been trying to meet for a very long time now? So she had been around?
She looked behind her to see Muchen"s Rolls Royce. Without thinking twice, she hopped into the pa.s.senger"s seat of Changyu"s car.
Muchen frowned when he saw her get into the car and quickly dialled her number. Two rings, and she s didn"t answer.
"You should let him know you are fine" Changyu advised when Sara"s phone vibrated for the third time. Sara had been nervous. She sat there like a statue. When the phone rang the first time on her bag, she was startled and had to silent the phone. But it kept vibrating loudly. She wanted to strangle The Boss for getting her such a useless phone.
She looked at Changyu nervously. She looked pale and looked like she had been crying. "Ma?"
"You should take your call and let him know I"m giving you a ride home. Or he might just keep calling you"
"How.. How did you know?" She asked in surprise.
"I was at the park earlier. Sorry" She answered with a small smile.
Sara"s face turned red from embarra.s.sment as she took the call on it"s fourth ring.
"Sara, are you okay?" He asked, worried.
"I am fine Mr Li. Miss.." She had a problem on how to address Changyu. "Madam Song" She settled for that. "Madam Song is giving me a ride." She said in a low voice.
"Madam Song?" He remembered that she had been searching for her that evening.
"Yes. I"m hanging up now"
"Wait!" He stopped her before she could do so. "Call me immediately you get home. Or if anything happens. And.... Don"t think about coming late to work. You should come before I leave the house"
"What? Why? The contract says I can come anytime depends on how I observe Heya." She whispered.
"I like how humble she sounds" He thought with a smile. "Heya needs your attention. She locked herself inside since yesterday. You need to talk to her"
"Did something happen to Heya?" Sara raised her voice this time as she sat upright.
"She"s more worried about Heya than me?" He pushed the thought from his head and answered.
"Yes. Something big happened so you must come. And also, I need my jacket."
Sara finally remembered his jacket was draped around her shoulders. She scoffed. "It"s not like he is wearing it to work"
"Call me as soon as you get home" He hung up with a smile plastered on his face.
She also looked at her phone and smiled unknowingly.
"CEO Li is your boyfriend?" Changyu asked as she briefly glanced at Sara.
"No. Not at all" She denied vehemently.
"Then CEO Mo?"
She almost screamed G.o.d forbid. "He isn"t either"
Sara just realised something. Changyu must have seen her with Dexi at the party. Then saw her kissing Muchen and now she was denying dating both. She wondered how Changyu would be looking at her now. Why was she even interested in her life anyway.
Changyu didn"t say anything and just nodded as she focused on the road. "You can address me as Miss Song" She said.
Sara was already feeling uneasy. But she had to make use of this opportunity.
"Sorry to ask Miss Song..Do you by chance know any man named w.a.n.g Jianjun?"
