In life, people were either sad, happy or some may probably be sitting on the fence— Neither sad nor happy.

Whilst the Wangs were excited, the Blacks came to get Sara.

She was in the middle of a conversation with Changyu inside her father's room when the call came in from Snake.

He was outside and asked her to come meet him downstairs because Fuji wanted to see her and he had to drive her there.

She frowned at that because she had already planned going out with Muchen that evening.

Besides, she had to tell him about her new discovery and who her mother was— she was so excited to tell him about it. But what was this nonsense now? Fuji wanted to see her immediately?

Ordinarily, she would not have agreed to go see Snake because the Blacks were too insignificant to ruin her date plans but on a second thought, maybe he wanted to show her the person who actually wanted the painting.

And as much as she wanted to go out with Muchen, she wanted to take care of this pressing issue more.

"Are you alright?" Changyu asked when she saw her change in expression through the mirror and her hands which were styling Sara's hair stopped working.

Ever since they entered inside the house, they had been inside the room talking. Changyu needed rest and also wanted to catch up on everything about Sara's life and once in a while, she smiled and touched her dotingly like she could not believe she actually had a daughter.

So when Sara mentioned she was had date plans with Muchen, she did not waste time before offering to get her ready.

She had frowned when Sara brought out only two gowns and asked which she should wear and when she asked for the others so she would know the one to choose from, Sara had told her she had those two only and her father had bought it for her to act as 'Feng Alice'. The other ones she had, was the one she wore to Li Sun's birthday and she could not wear that one so she did not bother to include it.

Changyu had offered to order her some nice wears immediately but Sara laughed it off and told her not to bother about that for now.

She was just meeting her mother. Did she have to start making her spend on her.

There were plenty of other times to do so whether she liked it or not.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Changyu asked again when Sara said she was.

"I just have to go out ealier than I planned." She explained.

"Why?" Changyu had a sad expression on her face. She had just found her daughter and she wanted to leave even quicker now?

"Oh.. I have to meet some friends who suddenly came over. They are outside. So I'll go meet Mr Li from there"

"Then why do you look dejected if you're meeting with your friends? Do they bully you?"

Changyu was a very observant person. It was how she had succeeded in the business world also.

Judging from Sara's expression while taking the call, she knew something was up.

Her face was also like that when she received an unpleasant news or news about a person she did not like.

Changyu did not think there was any need for a DNA test. Because she very much believed that Sara was her daughter.

"Look dear. I don't want to seem too clingy okay? But in case you're going through something you cannot handle yourself, you believe I can do all things right?"

Sara smiled before adding. "Through Christ that strengthens you"

Changyu laughed and nodded. "Through Christ that strengthens me."

"Thank you. I'll never forget that" Sara stood up after Changyu attached the last clip on her hair and hugged her with a smile on her face.

It was nice having a lot of powerful people who cared about her.

As she stepped out of the room with Changyu leading the way like the place belonged to her, she checked the little wristwatch she was wearing and noticed it was past 8 already.

She did not want to call Muchen because she was sure that she could not successfully lie to him without him finding out. And because of that, she texted him instead, to let him know she would be two hours late to their date.

Jianjun and Joreen's eyes brightened when they saw her come out from the room.

She was simply stunning in her short red gown, leather jacket, black ankle boot and her hair styled in a simple and cute updo. She even had mild make-up on.

"Why are you dressed like this? You may catch a cold." Jianjun complained as he tried his best not to look at Changyu's face.

He had been trying to avoid her ever since the incident early that morning.

How could she just say that to him out of the blue? If he had not been with her the entire time, he would have thought she was drunk.

His heart had fluttered. Even when he walked back to the road in confusion, he had found himself smiling through a car's window.

You know that kind of feeling you have when your crush tells you they like you? Yea! He felt the exact same way. But he still could not look at her pretty face right now.

"She'll pick up a coat when leaving. You don't have to worry too much." Changyu said and tried not to laugh because he did not even bother to look at her at all.

She had not even started. She was going to haunt his life!

Sara smiled and assured her father that she would not catch a cold before looking at the little Joreen. "I'll get you something when I'm coming back okay?" She said with a gentle pat on her head.

Joreen nodded and smiled.

Sara smiled at her also when she remembered how much Joreen had cried when she heard her pretty Changyu was her big sister's real mother.

For like a minute after she was told, it was as if the carotid arteries and vertebral arteries that helped transport blood to her brain suddenly stopped functioning. Because she stood there blankly and soon, burst into tears.

"I knew it.. No wonder I've always liked her. She is your mother after all." Joreen's small hands hugged Sara and continued to say how happy she was that Sara also had a mother like her. She said a lot and how she was glad Changyu was her mother even though she was jealous that Changyu was prettier than her own mother.

Sara smiled happily before going to get her coat and after she took it from her room, she bowed to them and as she was leaving, Jianjun spoke to her retreating figure.

"Come home on time."

"You can take your time my dear" Changyu countered.

Jianjun could only purse his lips and move to the kitchen to do what he knew how to do best. He really could not handle this woman.

But wait, why had he not sent her back home yet?

Sara thought they were both adorable. She felt her father's life was going to be a lot fun now, all thanks to Changyu.

But, she was beginning to pity him. Who would have thought that his forty seventh year on earth would turn out like this— Meeting his only love and constantly getting teased?

She still wanted to know more about Jin Helene but for now, as she left the building, her mood turned sour when she saw Snake standing besides a white Audi. She remembered that the other times she saw him, he was in different cars. Seemed he always changed cars.

His face was still expressionless as she had always remembered.

"You look good." He complimented.

"Is he ready to show me the person who wants the painting?" She asked straightforwardly.

"I don't know why you're trying to cause yourself trouble. Just steal this thing and hand it over." He advised plainly. "I'm sure he'll forgive you even if he finds out in the future"

He was really sure of that!

"Maybe you're a thief. But I am not." Sara replied with a frown and he did not bother to get angry because she was not totally wrong.

"If the person is not there, I don't have any reason to meet with him today."

"Because you have a date?" He asked with a raised brow.

"It's none of your business" She snapped at him coldly.

He smiled a tiny smile when he heard her.

He was really impressed.

Fuji must have thought he was something while hypnotizing her to follow his wishes. But her will to not steal from her boyfriend was stronger and she had easily broken out from it.

He still felt bad for doing this to her because she had been his friends and they had both been close back then. Or rather, he was the only one she was comfortable talking with because Sara hardly spoke to anyone then.

But a lot happened and they had to stay away from each other. It was the only way they could save themselves.

When he saw how well she had been living after they relocated to this country, he was happy that she was living well and felt she was better suited living this way than being a Black. But the time he was given an order to start messing with her, he knew things were soon going to turn messy.

But, he was still glad that she was brave. It was the only way she could win against Fuji who liked messing with the weak.

"Let's go. You need to speak with Fuji" He said before opening the back door for her to get in.

"Call Fuji now. I don't have all night to spend going back and forth with you" She said in annoyance.

Snake was about to say something but she noticed he suddenly stopped and frowned.

She furrowed her brows and turned to look at what he was staring at behind her and when she did, she gasped and flinched in shock to see Muchen walking towards them.

She would have hidden somewhere or probably behind snake but Muchen had obviously seen them standing together.

She desperately wished for the ground to open up and swallow her that moment. How was he going to react? She wondered anxiously.

She did not even have the time to be shocked at how casually he dressed: A Jean trousers, coat, Sneakers, Winter hat.

His hands were covered with a hand warmer glove and on one hand, he held a single red rose.

She began to shake. What was she going to tell him now? What was she going to do?

She bit her lip nervously and blinked a couple of times.

Why the hell was he here by this time when she had told him she would meet him in two hours? She wondered.

Finally, the long lasting walk finally came to an end. He stood in front of her with an unreadable expression and to her shock, she saw him smile and offered her the rose as he reminded.

"Sweetheart. We have a date"
