Hello, Mr Li Chapter 38
Advertisement
The next day was a Saturday. Sara was to meet with Heya and Li Muchen at noon so she spent the entire morning cleaning the apartment with Joreen and Jianjun Wang since they were all mostly chanced on Saturdays.
While cleaning her room, she accidentally knocked down a photo frame that had been on top of her desk, thankfully, the glass frame did not break.
She picked up the photo frame and caressed it for a while as she looked at the image of a pretty woman wearing an old-fashioned floral gown. It was an old picture and the woman looked to be in her early 20's. According to her father, this woman was Jin Helene. Her mother.
A year after Sara was born, she died. And years later, her father and herself had returned back to this city. This was the City Jianjun Wang and his sister, Cixi Wang grew up.
Several times, she had looked at this photo for long hours to find any resemblance between her mother and herself, but she had come to the conclusion that she only got Jianjun Wang's features. Well, except her height. Maybe she could attribute that to Jin Helene since she was also not very tall also.
"Mom, are you okay there? I hope you keep watching us everyday" Sara said, then positioned the frame back on the desk.
She turned to see Jianjun Wang standing by the open door, looking intently at the photo.
She followed his gaze and looked back at the photo frame before she asked softly,
"If there is a next life, would you still choose to marry her even though you know she'll die?"
Jianjun Wang's eyes twitched a bit when he heard her question. He moved his eyes from the photo frame and looked at Sara. He was obviously in a melancholic mood.

She was curious to know about her Father's past. As much as he was so sweet and caring, his past remained a mystery to her.
She only knew that Jin Helene fell ill and died. And her father didn't consider any other women since then.
"Miss Kang is here!" Joreen suddenly called from behind them.
Jianjun Wang's eyes widened when he heard her. He didn't even know when he ran inside Sara's room and locked the door behind him, leaving Joreen outside the room.
"Go tell her I'm not home" He pleaded softly to Sara.
Sara laughed as she watched his reaction.
"You know, Joreen must have told her you were in" Sara said.
"That little....." He searched his brain for the right word to describe the little devil standing outside the door but he couldn't come up with anything.
He really felt like squeezing the life out of that tiny girl.
"I said Miss Kang is here" Joreen repeated as she kept banging the door.
"Jo...Jo.. Please tell her I'm not in" He pleaded desperately.
"Pa, I already told her you are inside. Do you want me to be seen as a liar?" Joreen retorted through the closed door.
"Dad, just go out already. You know Miss Kang won't leave until she sees you. Except you want the both of us to be locked in here" Sara nudged him with a mocking laugh.
Jianjun Wang finally gathered his wits and opened the door.
He gave Joreen who had still been standing outside an evil stare as he moved to the living room.
Sara and Joreen both burst into laughter. This was really hilarious!
Once Joreen stopped laughing, she asked.
"Sis, can I go with you to meet the Lis today?"
The previous night, she had been advised by Jianjun and Sara not to raise any issue about G-Global to Li Muchen since it was still too soon. She desperately needed to ask Li Muchen for help.

"I'm not sure. But we could go there some other time" Sara said as she draped a towel around her neck.
"Oh...." Joreen purred sadly with her head lowered.
"Don't be sad Jo. I'll have to help his sister first before I can make such requests. You know how these people are, they hate being used." Sara said while patting her back.
Joreen suddenly raised her head and with a grin, she spoke "Mr Li is really handsome. I feel like marrying him."
Sara "...."
She was so speechless. What was she supposed to tell Joreen?
"Sis, what if you both end up falling for each other? It's going to be soooo romantic" She covered her open mouth with her two tiny hands and giggled.
"Stop thinking nonsense Jo..." Sara scolded.
"I'm going to go say hello to Miss Kang"
Sara walked to the sitting room with Joreen trailing behind her.
They both entered to witness the scene of a woman blushing while handing Jianjun a gift with a hand. She used her other hand to tuck some strands of her hair behind her ear.
"My Mother sent me these from Korea. The tea would help you relax since you are always stressing yourself out" She said shyly.
Jianjun accepted it with both hands and thanked her.
"Oh, Sara. You're here" She said when she saw Sara and Joreen standing there.
"Good morning Miss Kang. Long time no see"
"Yes, long time indeed. School has been taking so much of my time, Joreen is my witness" She said as she winked at Joreen.
Miss Kang was a teacher in Joreen's school. She was in her mid 30's and was always looking smart. One couldn't say she was a very pretty woman but she was attractive, had short hair, and was tall. Only slightly shorter that Jianjun.
Jianjun had gone for a PTA meeting in Joreen's school when he met Miss Kang for the very first time and since then, she felt she had found her soulmate. Her crush was so obvious to everyone.
Sara and Joreen both liked her. But Jianjun on the other hand always felt terrorised whenever she was present.
This was going to be a long day!

I know it's a little odd to have posted both the prequel and the sequel in my Animephile before getting to this one, but honestly >_> it felt like this one (and its interwined twin that I started writing about half way through it, and will edit when this one is done) was just too smutty. I'm cleaning it up and toning it down to meet the rating as I go back through it.I'm only scheduling one chapter a week, because I'm also starting something in a new universe that I hope to have ready to begin posting sometime this summer.
