Siren Song
40 Paradise VII
Chang turned to her mom and smiled feeling her touch. She started to remove the hand covering her face and noticed her mom was looking at Jian, just past her with a knowing look in her eye. Chang started to think about her mom and his interactions, they seemed to know each other and had been in touch for some time at least. Her mother had even made a nickname for him, showing her care and intimacy, she didnt do that with just anyone or immediately. Not just that her mom had brought up something about him not being able to protect her yesterday in the hospital. 'Why would she say something like that? Also why was she there? I never really got an answer to that. Hmm.'
"So mom how did you meet Jian, I never told you about him." Chang casually probed her mom unaware of the man who narrowed his eyes at her at her words.
Liang Jian Amal was irritated hearing her mention this, it had caused him some trouble due to her omission of the truth.
"Ahaha glad you brought that up!" Her mother's eyes became crescents as she laughed.
Chang glanced briefly at Jian after her mom laughed. Dark eyes that had been probing her face captured her eyes as she turned to him. His gaze darkened sucking her in. She immediately darted her eyes away before she lost herself.
'No no, dont let him seduce you right now!'
Liang Jian Amal was pleased with her reaction and it slightly improved his mood from being at the mercy of his mother-in-law. It was worth it for her. He continued to kneel down by her side, joining the discussion without leaving Chang's side. He nonchalantly put one of his hands on Chang's bare knee where the dress had exposed it, leaning his forearm across her lower thigh.
"So it was around Setember of last year when I first met Jian, he came to the house looking for you. He said he was your coworker and was here to deliver some paper work for you. I thought nothing of it and told him that you were away on a business trip and would be back in a few weeks.
Well a few weeks went by and he came over again for you. The second time I was definitely more suspicious, why would someone who works in the same company as you be looking for you. Would they not know where one of their own employees is? Jian conducted himself like a nice young man, but I found myself starting to worry that you may have been in trouble of some kind. As well as thinking that he may not be who he said he was. I told him to come back in two days, that I had received word from you.
I started to suspect that maybe he had done something bad to you or you were hiding from him, because he was trying to hurt you." Li Hua sighed supporting her chin with her hand. "So I did what any semi-reasonable mama bear would have done."
Chang saw that Jian was tightly pursing his lips from the corner of her eye. "So what did you do, mom?"
"I set a trap."
"A trap? What did you do?"
Li Hua's eyes got more animated as she continued her story. "So the next day, around mid-morning he came again. I planned to make him talk and tell me everything I wanted to know!
I welcomed him inside and told him that you would be there in about a half hour to an hour, due to traffic. He asked if it would be alright if he stayed and waited for you. I of course told him yes and served him tea to make him off guard. I tried lightly probing, asking how he knew you, where he worked and stuff, but I didnt get any answers. I started to become even more sure that he was someone trying to find you and hurt you. So I went into the kitchen to prepare "lunch" for when you arrived. I took a glass and threw it on the ground once in the kitchen and armed myself with my trusted wok. I crouched behind the counter and i waited for him to come to the sound."
Chang was astonished hearing her mom's story. "So then what happened?"
"Jian why dont you fill in some of the story from your side."
"So mom how did you meet Jian, I never told you about him." Chang casually probed her mom unaware of the man who narrowed his eyes at her at her words.
