Chapter 219 - 218: Midnight Wishes-I

By the time the tea party ended, Li Lian went home, she talked with Ren Linliu and Jin Nu Yuan for many times but their talks were on the surface and questions only came about the place and drinks as Jin Nu Yuan and Ren Linliu find no space for them to ask Li Lian about herself.

Li Lian wondered if Ren Linliu was as she had expected like Jun Wei? She asked herself. There were many stories in the shelf of friends who like one another but kept quiet and wondered if it was the case. What about Jin Nu Yuan then? The cousin girl was still a cousin. She had heard most families wish to have their family close which was why they would marry their child to their third cousin. However, Li Jun Wei didn't have the thought and now they were married.

As she walk back to her room, she found Li Jun Wei was also at home. He stood in front of the window to his room and when she opened the room, she saw how the curtains were blowing against him and let the thin white shirt to be blown by the wind. One of his hand was on his pocket and another holding the phone against his ear. She saw how he was in the midst of conversation and decided to enter soundlessly. But it failed for Li Jun Wei not to notice. He had seen from how the curtain moved that Li Lian had entered.

A quirk went to his lips, he continued to speak at the phone while Li Lian who thought she had successfully avoided to alarm Li Jun Wei tip toed her way to the bathroom. The faster she went to bath, the better she avoid to get change in front of Li Jun Wei. She may have accepted soon she would have to get used to it but she was trying her best on her own term now. She wouldn't want to faint while changing her clothes that soon lead to her having her clothe changed by Li Jun Wei. If it was him, she could tell he would immediately agreed to help.

By the time she had changed her clothes, she saw Li Jun Wei was still talking. It seemed that the phone call was taking a very long time. Taking a seat on the dressing table Li Jun Wei brought from her room, she brushed her wet hair and her eyes went to stare at Li Jun Wei. His face was as handsome as usual. Like any other day, he wore a long sleeve shirt that covered his right arm where the wounds was. She hadn't took a good look at the wounds. Although she doubt that she would be able to differentiate wounds she knows that the injuries were created from glass wounds, like how the boy who had saved her. She had to check the wounds again. But Li Jun Wei dislike having his arm to be seen.

If she requested him, she was sure Li Jun Wei would show his arm as much as she needed but she didn't want to be inconsiderate, especially when it is Li Jun Wei who she would be talking with. Her husband.

She continued to look at him, seeing his hair blown by the wind was soft, she remembered the texture of his hair... his arms were stronger than they look and so was the stomach he had where his muscle was carved in. When last night her waist was pulled, she felt her self stuck to his body and felt everything she could feel between the wet fabric. That was the first time she touch a man's body, n.a.k.e.d to top. She couldn't have her eyes bellow Li Jun Wei's waist but it didn't mean she hadn't caught a little sneak peek at it. Then her eyes stopped at the lips... As if she was in a daze, her eyes that looked at his lips stayed there for a long time. Then her throat gulp. Li Lian stood from her seat, shaking her head and down a few glass of water to keep her mind clear.

From afar, she heard the window was shut, Li Jun Wei had stopped his call and his face turn at her before he took long strides to arrive by her side. Now, Li Lian was on the side of the bed, sitting quietly with her hand on her laps as she thinks of other things that could come to her mind.

"You came back early." Li Jun Wei stated as he placed the phone next to the glass she used to drink from. Reaching out his hand, out of a habit, he placed his hand over her head and caressed her head. "How was the tea party? It's your first time there, was thee anyone who had given you a trouble?" He asked and in his second question there was a glint passing to his eyes.

There was a few who had gave her problem but they were too scared to do anything that could be very offending as they know who was behind her. "It was normal, I went to the garden with Linliu and Nu Yuan."

Li Jun Wei's brows raised and she heard him asking, "They were also there?" He narrowed his eyes. He didn't remember giving any invitation to those two people. Without Li Lian knowing, Li Jun Wei had prepared herself a tea party where she would be able to get use to the life of the socialites. He had done the screening on who could come. He had guessed there would be some people who could be rude as they thought Li Lian was just a girl with no background who would feel dispirited after receiving some jabs but this was his Li Lian he was talking about. Nothing could hold her down. He had asked the question to know if there was still people who dared to go against her but even when there was, Li Lian didn't think it was something she had to stress herself from.

"They were. It seemed they've planned to come together." Li Lian replied when Li Jun Wei took a sit beside her. Jin Nu Yuan and Ren Linliu was in a bad term buy from what Li Lian saw, they seemed to be close enough to lock each other's hand in the garden and not to forget they kept covering each other and used their numbers to force Li Lian to answer a few question which eventually failed.

Li Jun Wei watch her expression from the side. While Li Lian was thinking of many things while staring at him. Li Jun Wei also has many ideas running on his mind as he stared at her. Like how when her lips parted his tongue sneaked out from his lips, running into it as he wanted to taste her lips again. Once wasn't enough for him nor was twice. Every time he kissed Li Lian, he felt he had fallen deeper with no going back. But he didn't try to defy and let himself sink deeper to the want and need for her.
