Chapter 148 - 144: Charity Kindness

The cafe where they decided to sat together at was just right beside her agency company. Li Lian chose to sat on a place with a wide surface and sat at a rounded desk with He Chang Min in front of her and behind her was the two bodyguards who instead of drinking like other customers glared at the man who sat in front of their master's wife.

"We arrive here now talk." Li Lian said after the man was ordering a drink for her and him when she didn't even ask him to do it.

He Chang Min stared at her taking time before he said, "Li Xiao Chen, are you close with him?"

"I am." Li Lian briefly replied nonchalantly, her eyes turning away from him who had knitted his brows.

One didn't have to be a geniuses to guess what was running on Li Lian's head. He exhaled a breath also tired from her uninterested expression to say gently, "Li Lian I know everything already let's talk properly."

Li Lian who hadn't been smiling well now rested a smile on her lips. "You know everything? Wow. So what you want? Do you want me to clap?"

"Li Lian." He warned.

"I'm not here to talk about me Mr. He in case you forgot I am here only because you are holding the news of my grandmother." Just then the waitress who was assigned to bring the vanilla latte and dark coffee to their table saw how tense the air between the two and thought that they were perhaps a couple who had just broken up badly.

The waitress quickly placed the vanilla latte to Li Lian and a dark coffee to He Chang Min where Li Lian raised her hand to stop the waitress. "You are wrong miss." Li Lian said gently and placed the dark coffee for her whilst moving the vanilla latte to He Chang Min. "I don't drink that." The waitress saw how the man's expression turned irritated from her words and quickly ran off back to the counter.

"Vanilla latte and hazelnut syrup, it's your favorite." He Chang Min said and the dark coffee was his as there was a time where Li Lian tried to take a sip of the dark coffee and she complained of how the taste was too bitter for her.

"Really? Like how people can change taste buds change too. The man I'm with love dark coffee and I learned from him how a bitter coffee can taste sweet."

He Chang Min jaw clicked in dislike at her words, he moved his eyes when it fell short at her with angriness he didn't direct at her. As the person who had betrayed her first, he had no say to her new relationship. He knew it well and it made him furious to himself. "You are in a relationship with Li Xiao Chen."

Li Lian was tired with his was of talking and rolled her eyes, "I don't care if you mistake me as his lover but I'm not with him. He is my lover's younger brother."

"Younger brother?" He was taken aback when he repeated the two words. Li Family is famous enough that his brain didn't have to process who she was with in a relationship. "You are with Li Jun Wei-"

"Cut the chase," she had enough of this chit chat with him without cursing the man outright, "what do you mean by you know everything?"

Seeing that Li Lian wasn't in a place of wanting to converse with him He Chang Min sighed. His irritated ness and angriness he once had faded very slowly, "I had heard of your back ground. True background." he pressed his tone when he said true background. Not the past that Xie Family had forced her to say but the past she had in Japan.

"And?" she didn't look that surprised. In fact, she didn't care and that's why she claimed her relationship with Li Jun Wei. "Are you going to threaten me with my past?"

He frowned to hurriedly denied, "I wouldn't!" His eyes flickered with mixed emotions one that Li Lian could pick very well was guilt but what good would it be that now he had guilt?

"Thanks then," she said lightly the words coming off her lips had the opposite emotion to her eyes, "Though it wouldn't really matter if your share my past because I wouldn't be the one chasing for you." and she was right. From times to times she had thought not to burden Li Jun Wei but the man welcomed all troubles that come with her promising to protect her.

Whether it was stones that they threw to her or knifes, he promised to protect her. Then why do she have to hold herself from sharing her trouble with him? He is her husband and the answer was simple. Like how he welcomed the troubles that come with hers she welcomed his and would protect him.

He Chang Min pulled a small smile the one he thought to himself to be pathetic. The words she said he also knew what she meant. Of course she wouldn't need his help when her lover was Li Jun Wei, the man known well as the Emperor. But was she in a relationship with Li Jun Wei only for the sake of revenge?

He then passed his phone showing a picture of her and Wei Tsui Lan. Seeing the picture on the phone, Li Lian drew her brows in concentration.

"I received this picture from someone," He Chang Min stated and that someone Li Lian thought must be Xie Hue Lin. "You should protect yourself well especially when it comes to pictures like this. For now, I've put a stop from the picture to spread you two are singer and actors image are important." He showcase the phone and pushed the delete button for her to see clearly.

"What are you doing? Helping me?" Li Lian frowned at his charity kindness.

He Chang Min took a sip from the drink, nervousness catching up on the tips of his fingers, "I'm sorry." he started, "Actually there is still something I haven't talked about you that day, I-"

"Don't start with your apologizes." Li Lian held her eyes blazing with fury. Was his mouth only capable of saying empty apologies? "What happened with grandmother's birthday?" asked Li Lian.

"She asked to meet you after she heard that you didn't die. Your grandmother is sick, Li Lian. Xie Family had been asking for you to come back but they are unable to find you."

Li Lian scoffed, "Seems like I have become a superstar in Xie Family." When she was there they hoped her to be gone and now that she is gone they search her, what a stupid irony.

She stood up from her chair taking her things where he followed her suit and stood up, "Wait, I'm not finished yet." but she didn't want to wait for him as her hand didn't stop what it was doing.
