"What? T...WO....two years?" Cixi asked in obvious shock and surprise.

Sara gulped down the entire glass of water in front of her and cleared her throat awkwardly to get Muchen's attention.

"Big sis... You've known him for two years?" Joreen asked curiously.

Jianjun was also surprised. He hadn't heard of anything like them meeting two years ago. They've really known each other for that long? And not only that, he has liked his crazy daughter for that long? Wow!

Sara knew he remembered her from two years ago. He had said something about her looking like a 'gangster fairy' but she had no idea he had liked her for that long. When it registered, she blurted out. "What? Two years?"

All of them looked at her in surprise. So she didn't know either... Was it a one-sided love by chance?

Muchen nodded to all of their questions.

"She is somehow acquinted with my cousin. I met her for the first time when came to speak with him one day."

He answered with a smile as he remembered her entire actions that day.

Sara bit her lower lip. Why did he have to talk about that day? What if he re-remembers everything and suddenly refuses to date her because she fought that day. But... he said he had liked her since then so did he really like the fact that she fought and dressed like a gangster? What was he? A low-key masochist?

"Wow.. So it's like a love at first sight?" Mr Chu asked.

Muchen lowered his head and smiled "We could put it that way" He responded in an embarrassed tone.

The words 'Love at first sight' rang in Jianjun's brain. He smiled sadly and watched the others as they conversed together.

"So she was there to see your cousin but you fell in love with her. Oh my god!" Cixi exclained excitedly. She loved stories like this. "So did you keep in touch? Did you approach her then?"

"No" Muchen answered honestly. "I left it to fate and hoped we would both meet again if we were meant to be"

"Oh my!" Cixi and Joreen both covered their mouths. This was too sweet. Sweeter than the fried rice they were eating!

"So Sweetheart..." Cixi turned to look at Sara "When did you fall for him? Was it also a love at first sight?"

Sara ran her eyes over everyone on the table before filling her mouth with rice. She was glad Muchen hadn't mentioned anything about what had happened that day. Her father would have really killed her this time.

She pondered on the question she had just been asked by Cixi.

That day two head ago, she had actually thought he looked very handsome and was somehow attracted to him but she didn't know neither was she sure she fell for him that day. Besides, it was the same day she met Jinyong and they had both dated without her thinking about Muchen ever again except for one tune when she suddenly remembered the look in his eyes when both their eyes met.

"Come on sis. Don't be shy" Joreen urged her. She was just like her mother. Both loved juicy gossips and this was the best of them all.

"So was it by mere coincidence that she started working for you two years later?"

Jianjun asked Muchen for the very first time when he noticed that Sara was finding it difficult to answer the question. Truthfully, he was also curious.

Muchen didn't hesitate to answer

"Yes. I guess we're both destined to be together" He lied smoothly.

He didn't think it was wise to let them know he had manipulated the whole thing. Was he supposed to say 'No Mr Wang. I met her during her friend and boyfriend's engagement party and after that I asked my assistants to leave her the only flier for the job specially reserved for her and then she came to me just like magic'??

"Liar!" Sara muttered under her breath. He had employed her on purpose but he was lying smoothly while keeping an innocent face.

'Well, it doesn't matter. I like working for him anyway'

She was oblivious to whatever was going on in there. Her focus was solely on Muchen who was responding to whatever questions they were asking with a smile plastered on his face.

The people on the table concluded that they were both destined for each other.

A smile unconsciously formed on her face. 'How nice would it be if I can see this face every morning' Sara said to herself.

This others wondered why she was smiling at Muchen like that.

Muchen's face was down so he had no idea someone was crazily smiling at him.

"Just eat" Jianjun mouthed to the rest to ignore his crazy daughter. He had to teach her that it was a problem being too obvious like this. 'I can hide it very well' He remembered the words she told him and shook his head. She was doing a really bad job!

Muchen had never felt this warm because of a simple meal. He smiled warmly at the family he just finished eating with. He knew they weren't trying to suck up to him by being nice simply because he was rich. He knew they were only this nice and friendly because Sara liked him and he liked Sara also.

They had never asked him for anything before.Even Joreen had never pestered him about working with G-GLOBAL. They were more concerned about doing things for him and having him around than asking for help.

He liked this family with all his heart!

He should really thank Mo Jinyong for making him meet Sara.
