Li Muchen was startled by her question.
He looked at her and blinked a couple of times, trying to understand what she actually meant.
Sara seemed to suddenly realise that there was something wrong in the way she asked the question.
She moved her gaze from his and stuttered.
"Actually... I... I am trying to say that.. you know, as an employee and employer, we are supposed to have a cordial relationship. And you know... "
She had wanted to end it with 'like each other' but no matter how she thought about it. It felt weird, putting it that way so she just laughed awkwardly.
Li Muchen who was still looking at her, suddenly spoke while adjusting in his seat.
"Yea."
Sara looked at him in confusion. What was he actually saying 'yea' to? She wondered. Was he saying yes to the fact that they were both supposed to have a cordial relationship?
When he saw her confused look, he clarified.
"Yes, I do like you...."
