Chapter 167 - 165: Beside Me-III

A rush of blood flood to Li Lian's head after his words. Holding her hand she replied bravely, "I didn't doubt that you would peek at me." and her lips pursed without answering his second choice he gave.

"You should not easily believe in men, Li Lian." he whispered back. "You should know that all men are wolves in sheep clothing."

"But you are not any men." She said to see Li Jun Wei's eyes gave a sense of inducement.

"I'm going to change now." she said hurriedly to stand up and take a quick dash to her wardrobe and took her pajamas out when she saw the rabbit pajama that her twin older brother sent her and put aside the pajamas to the far corner of her drawer.

Walking with her fresh clothing, Li Lian didn't have to turn which she did nevertheless to see Li Jun Wei sitting in his seat unmoving. His face however was turned near to the folding screen which was placed in front of the wardrobe. With one of his hand that was leaning in the armrest propping his chin. As his finger was covering his lips, Li Lian couldn't make out what expression he was wearing but from what she could view, he seemed to be in a deep thought.

With no word they exchanged she walked and pulled the folding screen to spread widely and folded the edges to corner the front and her back. Her finger unbutton the first two button of her clothing to feel her stomach tied. She knew it wouldn't be easy for her silhouette to be seen and Li Jun Wei wouldn't peek her as she undressed, not that she actually mind deep down that Li Jun Wei would see her n.a.k.e.d as they were husband and wife but the situation itself felt too sudden to her.

She felt the thought of taking her clothes off in the same room as him brought a somewhat sensitive to her.

Li Jun Wei, on the other side kept his gaze strong to the woman behind the folding screen intensely. His eyes held a flickered of light and in the silence he did nothing but watching the folding screen. As the folding screen may be thick enough to hide her shadow that doesn't mean he didn't feel anything by having Li Lian undressing in the same room as him.

One thing he knew was that despite her relationship with He Chang Min, Li Lian came off as clueless in matter of love and relationship that could also be seen from the kiss that they shared. She was nervous and unaware to what she should do when his tongue tangled with her. But that didn't mean that he didn't enjoyed the deep kiss. Everything about her taste sweet and when he saw her blushed face and her tears eyes, it only riled up the man inside him.

He didn't want to surprise her with a sudden activity but that didn't mean he would let her sleep beside him while being mum.

Li Lian stepped out of the folding screen and after putting out her clothes in the laundry basket which was placed in front of the bathroom, she trotted over him who was still sitting on his place.

He lifted his chin up and reached out his finger to pressed her fingers, "Should we sleep now?"

Li Lian bobbed her head up and down and before soon, Li Jun Wei had switched off the lights to leave the lamp beside him turned on. Pulling the ash colored quilt to cover his half lower body, he noticed Li Lian had gingerly pulled the quilt and stayed with some good distance between him and her.

Li Lian on the other side, had many things flooding to her mind. One of her biggest question was what she had to do? She didn't know. For now I should sleep, Li Lian thought in her head.

"You are not going to lay down?" Li Lian turned her face to see Li Jun Wei had laid on the bed with his body turned to his right shoulder where her spot was. Having one hand under his pillow he had the other one idle to pat the empty spot beside him.

"I was going to," she whispered. Her eyes rolled around by seeing him sleeping beside her, her heart felt in a brim of explosion. As she tried not to think much, she become more aware of the man who had been staring at her.

To not make the situation anymore silent than it was already were, Li Lian spoke anything that could come to her mind, "When I was young, my brother often read books with me before we sleep."

"They did?" he said, wanting to hear more of her story when she gave him a nod.

"It was a story tale book for children, some of the stories that I remember very well is Momotaro and The Red Ogre Blue Ogre." replied Li Lian once she finally laid down on the bed. Her eyes stayed upward with her body staying like a straight rock. Truthfully it was hard for Li Lian to sleep in the position but she didn't want to face him with her back as it would feel too lonely but she also wasn't sure whether she should turn her whole face to his side.

When she heard him humming, his voice felt much closer than ever, "I remember the story of Momotaro but I don't know well about the story of The Red Ogre Blue Ogre."

Li Lian was slightly surprised, "Momotaro is a very famous story in Japan so everyone mostly know that than The Red Ogre Blue Ogre but Jun Wei, how do you know the story? I don't think it is known well in China."
