Hello, Mr Li
/ Hello, Mr Li Chapter 49 - I'm sorry Sara
She remembered the conversation they both had earlier..
"Mr Li are you okay?" Sara asked when she saw him wincing in pain with his body resting on the car.
He wasn't punched in any vital part but the blood that came out from his mouth had shocked her. "Were you sick? What is wrong with your stomach?" she asked worriedly.
Muchen just looked at her. Although the place was a bit dark, the light coming from the other block enabled them to see each other faintly.
He had a lot of questions to ask but could not bring himself to. Earlier when they were coming to where the car was parked, he had asked her what she told the boss. She had simply said smoothly "I told him you have a lot of underground connection and is also being backed by the army so he has to save himself and leave"
Muchen knew she was lying and did not want to talk about it, so he decided to not ask her about anything.
"Mr Li, Why aren't you saying anything? Let's go to the hospital now. Give me your car keys" She said.
She was taken aback when she suddenly felt his strong hands pull her into a hug.
Muchen held her back firmly and pressed her to himself as he closed his eyes. She was really small. Her head was slightly below his shoulders. She could even hear his rapid heartbeat. Sara's eyes were wide opened. She did not know what to do in this case. Why would Mr Li suddenly hug her?. Her two hands remained by her sides awkwardly. It was a really awkward moment for her because she did not even know what to do.
"I'm sorry Sara" Muchen said in a hoarse voice. "Sorry I could not protect you."
When he remembered how useless he had been earlier, he almost wanted to die. What if Sara had not handled everything? How was he going to protect her and himself? Now he knew better, that money could not solve everything. Health was also important. Just neglecting his health a little bit because he was 'so busy' had caused him this. He had been advised severally by his doctor to get treatment. He had even agreed to visit the hospital today. But when Sara asked him to workout with them. He just could not turn down this 'cute banana'
"Mr Li..." Sara did not know what to say next. She was having a mix of emotions. But she was touched. She had actually thought that he would ask her questions or get angry at her for dragging him into this. But he was not. And was even apologizing to her?
"You bought us time though. Thank you Mr Li" She said softly. Of course, if Muchen hadn't stalled, She wouldn't have seen the boss's tattoo and handle the situation smoothly. Things would have gotten rough.
"There is something I want to tell you" He said as held her shoulders and pulled out of the hug gently.
He looked at her eyes and stared at her for a while.
Sara also looked at him, wondering what he wanted to say. It was weird that she was standing this close to boss. It was weirder because she didn't even find it wrong.
"Actually...The thing is...I... am a good fighter" He said with a sad smile.
Sara chortled gently when she heard him and spoke "I know, Heya told me already. That's why I was pretty sure something else was wrong with you. So we should go the hospital now"
He was quiet for a while without saying anything and just looked at her. If a genie asked Sara what wish she wanted to be granted right now, it would be to be able to read Mr Li's mind.
"It's the first time you laughed with me" He said as he lifted a hand slowly to touch her cheek. Before his hand could reach her face, he suddenly fell back on her shoulders.
This time, Sara felt that something was wrong. She pushed him lightly and realised that he had collapsed on her.
"He didn't scold you right?" Jianjun asked Sara whose head was resting on his thighs while he smoothened her hair gently.
Sara did not say anything and only shook her head. She had tried her best to minimize the detail and even lied about what had happened and just told him that they met some bad guys beating up Mr Chu and Bilike, they didn't know who Mr Li was and punched him, when they knew he was the Li family's young master, they apologized and let him go but Mr Li still punished them. He collapsed due to some previous ailment and Ms Long scolded her.
Jianjun Wang felt like hitting Sara when she told him that it was Mr Li who drove her. He couldn't stomach the fact that he actually allowed Mr Li to drive Sara around.
"Sara, I know you are right. I will always take your side no matter what. But to them, they are also right" He said.
Sara raised her head from his thighs to look at him. Whose side was he taking right now?
He saw her look and laughed lightly.
"I told you before, you need to learn how these people act. You know the kind of person Mr Li is. What if someone who recognised him was also in the hospital or what if the doctors weren't experience and made a mistake? I can assure you that Mr Li had never stepped his feet into a hospital like that in his entire life even if it was only to treat a light scrape."
He held her hands and continued "Ms Long understands this thing. Do not blame her. She must have been shocked"
"Why shouldn't I blame her? They always want to put the blame on someone else" She grumbled.
"To them they are always right. I agree with you. But I'm happy that at least, you are only working with them for a while. Its not like you are marrying him" He said as he laughed.
When he said that, Sara's cheeks flushed as she remembered how Muchen had hugged her. She shook her head to clear the thought off and tried to hide her face from Jianjun. But he had already seen it.
"Look at me Sara" He said
Sara shook her head and covered her face with her hands.
"Come on, look at me" He said as he tried to lift her chin.
Sara stood up abruptly and dashed to her room.
Jianjun Wang could only hope that whatever he was thinking was not correct.
