Hello, Mr Li Chapter 13
Advertisement
As soon as Sara and Joreen got back from the restaurant, she went straight to fetch her laptop in other to use it apply for the job vacancy.
She was happy to have bumped into the stranger who dropped the flier. What a perfect coincidence! She thought.
She had been worried about how to start looking for a new job. And all of a sudden, the right job came looking for her.
But she was still bothered. She was quite sure a lot of people was going to apply for this same job, people who were far more qualified than her. She didn't go to a renowned university and with the pay she was seeing on the flier, they may be needing someone who graduated from a prestigious university. So the possibility of her getting the job was rather low.
She gave up!
But after enough pushing from Joreen and her father later that evening, she finally agreed to try her luck. There was nothing to lose anyway.
Joreen had even started thinking of the things to buy after Sara received her first pay. Sara couldn't help but laugh at her optimism.

Li Muchen just finished preparing a Shrimp omelette when he received a call from Ms Long through his headset. Muchen was fond of preparing dinner for himself ever since he started living alone and now that Heya was around, he had an extra person to cook for.
When he received the call from Ms Long, he quickly answered it while taking off his apron.
He hoped the call was in relation to Sara.
"Mr Li. She has sent it" Ms Long reported.
Li Muchen finally sighed in relief. For a moment, he had been worried that she would not take the bait since Sara was always fond of doing things the opposite way.

Besides, he had waited all day and nothing turned up. He couldn't help smiling now. He was pleased to see everything go smoothly.
"First thing in the morning, Let her know she has been accepted and should be present for her interview on Tuesday morning." He paused for a while then continued. "About Mo Jinyong... Cancel every contract I have with him. Since he is so good at acting, he should leave the business sector for the entertainment industry.. And, refund him the money he paid for using the hotel for his engagement party . Let him know it is my advance wedding gift to him" He ordered smoothly. Ms Long accepted his orders.
After hanging up, she laughed. Interview? Seriously? The flier had been sent to only Sara. In fact, it had been made just for her.
Who was he deceiving? It was fun watching her boss interested in someone else. She had been working with him and had never seen him take interest in anything other than the company. He was always about business and meetings. Too bad Jinyong had to suffer. She knew Li Muchen was indirectly taking revenge on Sara's behalf.
The only one who could oppress the rich was obviously the richest. Nonetheless, that served him right!
Ms Long was also a woman. She had been in Sara's shoes before. After being in a relationship for over five years, he suddenly came up with the excuse of him enlisting in the army and broke up with her. In less than a month, she received an anonymous email of his wedding pictures with another woman who he had married a week back. She had been completely heartbroken.
When Li Muchen realised what had happened, He made sure to suppress his family's business. And after his family went bankrupt, his wife presented him the divorce papers.

Yes! Li Muchen was always that heartless to whoever messed with his people!

Soon, it was Tuesday morning. Sara found it strange that they had insisted on picking her up. In fact, everything still felt surreal. When she received the text to come for her interview, she thought she was hallucinating.
After confirming it was real from Joreen and Jianjun, she was finally able to believe it.
"Big sis, you look so pretty. I'm sure you will get the job" Joreen said while waving Sara and Jianjun goodbye from her school bus's window.
Jianjun and Sara both laughed. Did she think looks alone could automatically guarantee her employment?
Unlike her usual appearance, wearing ripped Jean, boots or sneakers, and loosely fitted tops, today she was putting on a button down light blue shirt, dark plain jeans and a black slip-on flat shoe. Her hair was tied in a ponytail and she was even wearing a light make-up. She remembered the stunned look on both of their faces as soon as she came out of the room.
Jianjun had even cried when he saw her. He bought her those clothes a long time back and this was the first time he was seeing her wear it. Joreen kept reminding Sara how pretty she was and how the job was hers already.
To them, she was looking so formal and 'ladylike' and were both happy to have known a beauty like her.
"You should leave for the restaurant now. I will call you after the interview" Sara said to her father after they both waved Joreen off. He shook his head in disagreement.
"I need to see you off also. Who knows if the people are genuine?"
Although he was happy for Sara, he had been worried about that. The pay was too high and there was no work address. Besides, Sara didn't graduate from a renowned university and did not have any prior work experience in that field but was still selected firsthand.
He needed to see the people for himself to be sure.
Sara agreed with his logic and didn't push further but just stood there with him. After about three minutes, it was finally 8am, the agreed time to pick Sara up.
A car suddenly stopped in front of them. A young lady got down from the front passenger's seat and strolled to were Sara and Jianjun was standing.
