Chapter 513 - 523: Fallen Petals-I

Li Lian walked with her high heels, the men who were dressed and clothed in the police uniform bowed at her at once as they found her face familiar. Opening the door for her, Li Lian then made her way inside the room where it was divided in half.

On one side was her and on the other side of the room which was separated by a tall glass Wei Tsui Lan who was dressed in a prison attire.

Wei Tsui Lan looked at her with a sneer, "Mrs/ Li Lian, you came again? I have nothing to talk with you but I am truly curious how is your husband doing now? Has he died?" 

Li Lian came and take a seat with her expression passive.

"You are very kind, Mrs. Li. You could have killed me instead of bringing me here, do you think by sending me to the prison I will repent?"

Li Lian still didn't entertain the man with his monologue. Instead, he went to pull some pictures from her handbag before pressing it tightly against the glass.

"Meet Miss WongHee and Miss Enhyu," Li Lian said, that had Wei Tsui Lan to narrow his eyes because he knew who that was, "The two women were once named under Hong surname, your mother and sister. Right now they are living a very fulfilling life in Korea."

"W-What?" Wei Tsui Lan stared at the picture in disbelief. He tried to reached out his hand, forgetting the fact that there was a glass between them. Unable to hold the picture, he smashes his fist over the glass. "Give it to me! You are lying!" 

Li Lian did the opposite by gathering the pictures to her hand and placed them upside down on the desk, "I am lying? I am here only to relay you the truth because my grandfather in law wished for me to do so."

"What do you mean the truth?" A trembling sound could be heard from Wei Tsui Lan's voice.

"Mr. Li Wen Zhou whom you hated so deeply faked a death of a two person who was almost killed by her ex-husband. Your mother was a fighter but her husband who were tangled with debt suddenly came to a plan where he could pay all his debt and that was the life insurance of her and your sister." 

Li Lian watched the continuous shock and doubt on Wei Tsui Lan's face, "Coincidentally, Mrs. Hong knew Li Wen Zhou who then agree on her idea to fake her and her daughter's death by starting an gas accident in your apartment. It should have led to no death except the two fake ones until her husband noticed something was off and could tell that they were faking their death—"

"You are lying—"

Li Lian punch her fist to the glass, causing the entire glass to vibrate, "I don't really care about whether you believe me. I really want to f.u.c.k.i.n.g kill you, Wei Tsui Lan."

Anger was boiling inside Li Lian's eyes, her appearance than had always looked lovely didn't change but the cruelty she held on her eyes now made a clear difference of the past her and the current her. 

She held her snarl, lowly growling, "The reason why I don't is because my grandfather in law had some debt to your mother. But mark my word. I will never ever let you see your mother and sister again for you have harmed my most beloved person."

She then left the room, hearing Wei Tsui Lan's screams and his yells as he wanted to see his family again but it was all too late. While Li Lian couldn't offer him death, she knew that the most painful punishment for him to unable see his family despite knowing that they were alive would be a living Hell for him.

The lawyer from Li corporation then came to serve beside her. Without looking at the woman, Li Lian said in a clear voice, "I want him to be under the bars forever. Until his last breaths. From now on no one should be allowed to meet him again. No matter who it is."

Days passed as fast as the leaves that fell from the tree to the ground. A few people had come and leave to meet Li Jun Wei. It was then the visit of Mr. Wang Li Lei. 

Li Lian greeted the man with a forced smile. She cannot pull any smile at her current condition but she didn't want to be impolite to the person who had helped her and Li Jun Wei.

"I am sorry for coming late, Mrs. Li Lian, this is my fiancée," Wang Li Lei took a step aside to show the dainty beauty young lady who stood beside him.

The girl offered Li Lian a gentle and wide smile, "My name is Yu Xiao Yun, my well wishes is all for you, Mrs. Li Lian."

Li Lian offered the girl another smile and felt how the girl's eyes studying her. The gaze wasn't uncomfortable but somewhere while looking at Yu Xiao Yun's eyes, Li Lian noted how the girl had a very calm eyes despite her age. 

"Can I see him?" Wang Li Lei asked as they were standing outside the room.

Remembering her bad manner, Li Lian took a step aside, "Certainly. The doctor says that all his vitals are stabile at the moment. But whether or not he can be awake is still a mystery of time," Li Lian could feel her own voice tremble as she speak the words. 

"I am sure he would wake up soon," Wang Li Lei politely offer his comforting words.

Li Lian tried to be optimist but she can't help the anxious thoughts that kept pushing to the surface of her mind. She felt a hold on her hand and looked to meet Yu Xiao Yun's eyes who had held her arm.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Li Lian. I am sure that soon your husband would wake up. He won't wither away," said the girl with a resolute look on her face.

"Thank you, I believe he would wake up soon as well. He is my husband and I trust his will to stay alive," Li Lian answered. She couldn't tell why but the words Yu Xiao Yun said felt a little different than trying to comfort her. As though she was certain of her words.
