Hello, Mr Li
/ Hello, Mr Li Chapter 198 - I really don't know
That night, Dexi paid a visit to the Mo's mansion. He made a show of coming to see his parents but in actuality, he was there to see Weiyoung. They had a deal and he had to make sure she fulfilled her part.
"Your Nephew has refused to leave the country with his fiancée. I don't know why he has chosen to put this family to shame" His mother complained sadly.
"Mother." He held her hands lovingly before he continued
"You should not bother yourself with Jinyong. He is old enough to take care of himself. If he doesn't want to go then just speed up his marriage plans"
His mother looked at him like he was nuts. They didn't want any more publicity especially right now and organising a wedding ceremony was so out of it because they weren't talking about just any people but the infamous Mo Jinyoung and Liu Weiyoung.
She shook her head at the bad idea.
Dexi tried to suppress a laugh. Everything was amusing to him. He liked the fact that his Nephew was in a messy situation. He so wanted Jinyoung to get married to Weiyoung especially now that he found out that he didn't want to marry Weiyoung and had even planned to get rid of her.
Dexi thought back to how he grew up. His parents had tried to raise them both like twins and at a time, he was actually open to the idea.
But then, his older sister Aida made it so obvious that she didn't like him. She always wanted to put Jinyoung first in any and everything that involved the Mo family.
When he got matured to understand all of these, he chose to stay away and keep to himself. If they needed a rival or a competition, he was happily going to be one to them. That was how it all started.
"You should go rest also. I'll leave now" Dexi said to his mother.
"Too bad your father fell asleep quite early tonight. I'll let him know you dropped by" His mother said as she followed him out to see him off but he suddenly stopped and said
"I should say hello to my future niece. She must have been terrified after being attacked" He said empathetically.
"My future niece-in-law" Dexi greeted excitedly when he entered the room where Weiyoung was waiting.
She turned around to look at him with cold eyes without bothering to greet him.
"Why are you standing? Let's get to business. Sit!" He gestured towards a seat before sitting on the opposite side.
Dexi observed her as she carefully sat down. He noted she looked paler than the remembered. Her long hair was tied to the back. She wore a long floral maternity gown that got Dexi wondering whether her pregnant belly was becoming obvious.
"What is it?" Weiyoung asked disinterestedly. He had saved her life yea! But why did he have to do it in exchange for information about Sara.
"You know it. I want to know everything about Sara that no one else knows"
"If know one else knows about it, how am I supposed to know?" She asked rudely.
Dexi smirked at her. "I told you darling. I am a businessman. If you don't want to have business with me, you'll wake up in the morning and find yourself back in that tiny studio apartment of yours outside of town without knowing how you got there" He threatened with a tiny smile still plastered on his face.
"Do you like her?" Weiyoung questioned.
Dexi wagged a finger on front of her before crossing his legs leisurely and spreading his hands to rest eagle-style on the couch.
"You have no right to question me. I do the questioning here." He reminded her.
Weiyoung didn't back down. She felt it was her duty to talk sense into him. "Sara is not the girl you think she is. You might think she is pretty and innocent but she isn't I assure you"
Dexi grinned at her statement. "You make me interested in her the more. So.... tell me what this is." He threw what looked like a document at her.
"You both traveled together with a group of other girls but she didn't return with you all. It took me a while before getting this little information." He said to her and carefully observed her behavior.
He noticed Weiyoung was uncomfortable and she looked nervous when he raised the issue. Seeing her like this, he tried to make guesses.
"She travelled with you but....the flight records disappeared. Then I thought and thought and thought about who took the record down. Then I figured it probably was your family. And if your family took down the flight records, it obviously means you must have done something...to her? So....?" He allowed his words trail off.
Weiyoung's eyes widened when she heard him before shaking her head vigorously.
"I.... I didn't do anything!"
"Then why was it cleared?" He asked further.
"Why would you think I did it? Like you said, I travelled with some of our highschool classmates also. Why didn't you think it was their doing?" She yelled at him in fury.
"You're overreacting sweetheart. Keep your voice down" He said with amusement in his voice.
"Sara was your friend. From my findings and observation, you weren't so friendly to her. But..." He scratched his head in frustration. "She's so naive. I actually find it cute if you ask me" He said with a smile.
"You were her only friend in high school. But you traveled back home without her and the flight records which proved she also used the same flight with you all suddenly vanished into thin air. So....who else was I supposed to suspect?"
"I said I didn't do anything!" Her nails dug deeper into her palm as she looked at him in anger.
"I actually felt bad for her and wanted to make her feel better when she was depressed. So I asked her to travel with me. But when it was time to travel back, she was no where to be found. What did you expect me to do? We searched for her but didn't see her so we had to go back home. We also had families waiting for us" She said in annoyance but Dexi didn't seem to buy any of that.
He shook his head "I still don't see why her records had to be deleted. There is obviously more to it. Now... It's not about Sara anymore. What did you do to her?"
"I said I didn't do anything!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. Her eyes were bloodshot and her breath, unsteady.
"Why was she depressed then?" Dexi remembered she said something about Sara being depressed and that had been the reason why she had traveled together with them.
He was curious about the reason a sixteen years old girl with a happy family was depressed.
Weiyoung blinked a couple of times as she went through an inner battle. As much as she hated Sara, there were times when she felt she had actually been genuine to her. Even right now, she wasn't sure revealing anything to Dexi was a wise decision but she knew she had to. She had to keep their promise for her to live.
"I... I really do not know what happened. But... But we were both attacked one night by one man... I was so scared." Weiyoung closed her eyes and forced the words out "I don't know what else happened" She said nervously.
"What do you mean by you do not know what happened next? Weren't you both together?" Dexi adjusted and inched closer to her. The smile was no longer on his face when he heard about two teenage girls getting attacked at night.
"I really don't know... I...ran away" She said with her head down.
