Hello, Mr Li Chapter 124
Advertisement
It was dark and the company was already half empty. But there was still one person who sat quietly in his office.
Dexi's gaze turned cold when he saw the news. "Those dirty bastards" He muttered angrily as he clenched his fists tightly.
He hadn't been bothered when his Nephew was the one getting all the attention just a few hours ago. Now, It wasn't just Sara, he was also thrown into the spotlight. People wanted to know why he went to his Father's birthday with Sara as his date. He scoffed. Power tussle? He wanted to bring Jinyong down using Sara? He couldn't believe people actually left most of the comments he was reading there. He couldn't blame them for being so gullible though.
He knew his Nephew wasn't smart, he knew he was a coward, and he knew that the one behind it all was none other than Weiyoung. She had nothing to lose in all of this after all.
"What do we do?" His secretary who had been patiently standing beside him asked.
Dexi closed his eyes and tapped his fingers gently on his desk. When he opened his eyes again, he looked at the wall clock opposite him. It was already past 8 in the evening and he knew it was time to leave the office for home, but, he was sure of one thing, his parents were going to call him very soon. Especially his Mother who had even asked him whether Sara was his girlfriend. Now, they all knew who she was. He used a hand to loose his tie and tossed it to a corner. "Liu Weiyoung, You are really something" He smirked.
He gaze then landed on the file his secretary and positioned on his desk, it contained some vital information about Sara's personal life. And according to his secretary, they were some information he couldn't find no matter how hard he dug.

He decided to just spend time going through the file now before his parents called him.
He looked through most of the things which he already knew about her. Then he saw something that caught his interest– Sara had taken a trip with Weiyoung and a few other girls one certain time, when they were still in highschool. They had visited another country during a school break. But then, Sara didn't return with them. The next time she was seen was about a year later. And it was a totally different her.

Minde looked at Muchen who had been seriously watching the video with an unreadable expression.
After the video ended, he scrolled down to look at the pictures below. He looked at the picture of a younger Sara and Weiyoung. When he saw Sara's innocent smile, his heart broke. 'Where did this smile disappear to? She looks so pretty' The thought
But when he saw the picture with Sara's hand on Jinyong's shoulder, he glowered at it.
"How dare him?" Minde heard Muchen speak for the first time as his hands tightened around the phone.
Minde worried for his poor phone. "Bro, what do you mean?" He asked in confusion.
"I only left for a few days and he turned Sara into the Nation's enemy? He even dared to stand there and allow Sara touch him?" He scoffed.
Minde couldn't understand his cousin. "You are supposed to be angry at Sara for touching him. Not the other way round" He informed.
Muchen ignored him and tried to fish out his phone then, he remembered he had not carried it with him. He exited the browser and quickly dialed Ms Long's number with Minde's phone.
"You knew?" Was the first question he asked in annoyance when she took the call.

"Mr Li. I saw the news on my way out of the hospital. I was about to reach you when I suddenly received a business call from Mr Feng. I'm currently in a meeting with him"
Muchen wanted to yell at her. Wanted to tell her that she was making unnecessary excuses. But he knew Ms Long was doing her best. She only just returned to the country and was already in a meeting. He couldn't take his anger out on her.
"Do not worry about it then" He was sure going to give her a good scolding but it won't be today. He had to educate her properly to know that whatever concerned Sara was also his priority.
Minde could not tell what his cousin was thinking. He only knew the atmosphere was dangerously cold. "Bro, calm down. I'm not really close to Sar... I mean Miss Wang. But I do not think she really did all of that" He tried to persuade him.
Muchen glared at him "Are you crazy? Why would you think I'll even think that?"
He didn't wait for a response before he dialled another number. It rang twice before he heard a tiny voice from the other side. "Hello, Mr Li?"
"Joreen, Where is your big sister?" Muchen asked when he noticed it was her who took the call.
'He even has Sara's number saved in his head. I'm sure he doesn't know mine' Minde pouted as he watched him.
"I wanted to ask you that. Isn't she with you? She said you were sick and went to the hospital. She isn't there? Oh my God! Did the reporters see her?" Muchen could tell she was walking back and forth in worry.
"Joreen, calm down. What are you talking about?" He asked in confusion. Sara was coming to the hospital to see him?
"What reporters are you talking about? When did she leave?"
"She left not too long ago. She mentioned that someone was going to pick her up. The reporters have been outside our door for hours. Big sist said you were sick and went out"
"She went through the reporters?" He asked in horror.
"No. Those people are terrifying. They even made her cry earlier" Joreen cried as she said that. She had heard Sara's cries and even though she had not heard her conversation with Jianjun, she was sure Sara had cried because of those people.
'What?' Muchen's face turned stone cold. Those people actually made her cry?
When he spoke again, he was already outside Minde's room door. He didn't even hear Minde's cries to not take his phone with him.
"Joreen, don't cry. I'll bring your big sister home okay? How did she leave the house?" He remembered to ask.
"... Actually, she..went through the roof"
