In a hand was a glass of red wine, in another, was a magazine, and on her lips, a tiny smile lingered.

"It seems the Liu's are trying to dig up information about you" Her PA informed as soon as she got in.

Changyu scoffed. She allowed her entire body to relax on the couch before speaking "Even birds now think they're dragons. With the rate they're crumbling, it's normal for them to start trying to play silly games. Let's see how far they get" She replied nonchalantly without lifting her head from the magazine. If anyone could easily dig up on her, then, she wouldn't have gotten this far at all.

"And about Miss Wang....." Changyu cut her off with the wave of a hand before she could finish. "Seems she can take care of herself perfectly."

Nothing like Jin Helene. Changyu thought. "She has CEO Li's backing?"

"Yes, CEO Mo also" Her PA responded.

Changyu smiled and spoke more to herself than her PA "A Mo and a Li. How interesting— It is refreshing to see two guys fighting for a girl's affection instead of the other way round." She took a sip from her wine glass before she continued "Hope you told them I changed my mind about selling the building? I suddenly have the urge to keep it for a very long time..."

Muchen couldn't stop laughing even after Sara entered the apartment. It was just as he had expected. When she suddenly came back to her senses, she ran away without looking back.

He could still feel her scent around him. Even his heart has refused to stop racing. He looked at himself in the rearview mirror to see how flushed his face was. A contented smile was also plastered on his face.

Sara had kissed him. She had willingly kissed him. Even her inexperience had delighted him greatly. It only confirmed she hadn't done it too much with another man

This was a girl he was trying so hard to have like him, he could not believe Jinyong had her for two years and had even chosen Weiyoung over her. For some reason though, he was grateful for everything that had happened. How would he have met Sara if it hadn't all happened? Maybe, he was going to send a gift over to Jinyong to thank him for not allowing Sara to make a wrong decision by sticking to him.

Muchen was happy, too happy. What more did he need in his life? He had his complete family, his sister's psychological health was improving greatly, he was wealthy, the company was going fine, and he had Sara by his side. He was really blessed.

Well, that was what he thought until he received an unexpected phone call.

"You have been digging" Jianjun sounded annoyed when he spoke to Sara.

"Dad, please. You are scaring Joreen" Sara said.

"Joreen, I told you to go inside" He yelled at her.

Joreen shivered lightly before she ran inside the room. Whatever it was, Joreen knew it was not going to be good. She had patiently waited for Sara to come home after she saw the video. Now that she was home, she was being sent to the room. How unfair!

"I am so disappointed in you Sara. How could you go behind my back to question Mr Park?"

"Dad please. I've had a long day. Can we talk about this tomorrow? Please..." Sara knew she was in trouble, but she was prepared for it this time.

"What is wrong with you Sara? You're not the Sara I raised. You are doing every wrong thing and what were you thinking kissing Mr Li outside?" He yelled at her.

Sara was taken aback by his sudden outburst and the fact that he had seen them kissing outside.

"Dad. I am not doing anything wrong" She shot back at him. Surprised that she wasn't trying to shy away from the topic. "I am not a kid anymore. I need to know things but you keep hiding things from me. What were you expecting?"

"It's for you Sara. For you! It's to protect you" He tried to convince her.

"Protect? Wow! I don't need protection. I am 25 years old. I'm an adult. I need to know everything about your life and mine. Why can't you just tell me and save me the stress of asking around? I can perfectly protect myself if that's what you're worried about."

"You think this is about knowing a few karate moves? You think that's all?" He questioned impatiently.

Sara almost laughed in unbelieve. What? A few karate moves? Jianjun Wang knew nothing. And it was better it remained that way.

"When did all of these start? When?" Jianjun asked in unrestrained anger.

Sara pursed her lips and said nothing. Nothing was going to stop her from snooping. Nothing. Even if it meant disobeying him for the first time.

When he noticed she wasn't saying anything, he let it slide for now. They'll address that later. But there was an urgent one right now "And you need to stay away from Mr Li" He added. "It'll cause you more harm than good. Sara, you have to understand that I am doing this for you" He finally spoke in a gentle tone.

Sara struggled to say something but nothing came out. He was sure that whatever she was going to say next, wouldn't be good.

Then he heard her say faintly.

"I am sorry. But...I...cannot do that" Sara rejected.
