Chapter 260 - 260: Nervous Sleep

Li Jun Wei let her have her time while he took the time to think. Li Lian's eyes settled at her hand gifted towards him but as she wasn't too stable to look at his eyes properly, her black eyes stopped at his neck before moving down to see at the black shirt he wore. The three button from the top of his collar had been left unbutton, letting his firm muscle to show and from the place where she was now, she could see the shadow peeking out to show his chiseled his body was.

Staring at his neck she had been watching, she remembered the time where she had ran her lips there, sucking the skin and biting some of it with enough pressure to let the skin turned red and bruised. Like her, Li Jun Wei had done the same thing to her with his... lips. Li Lian's eyes went from the broad plane of his chest to his neck, jaw, before ending at his red lower lips. The shape and the texture, when she was kissed by the same lips, she couldn't feel it but she knew how warm it was inside his mouth and how it felt when his lips pressed on hers.

Li Lian squeezed her hand. At that time when she had been bold, she was under the alcohol and another time was because she had been acting brave and all knowing when in truth there was less that she knew.

Li Jun Wei picked her hair, pulling it and playing with the texture to push it from her shoulder, "Tell me about him, the boy. His appearance or anything you remember from him."

Li Lian knew Li Jun Wei seemed to be slightly jealous. But he seemed to be very curious about the boy who saved her which make her feel somewhere happy that he was jealous. Li Lian began to pull her memories and pressed her humming tone subtly, "He was slightly older than me, tall but not too much apart from me."

Li Jun Wei noted down what she had said, "What of his appearance?" and on it he saw how Li Lian frowned.

"I can't really remember." She replied, pausing and having his attention she gulped from watching at his eyes. "My eyes were temporarily blinded that day because of the hit I received from the back of my head. I remember I could see but barely as everything felt blurry to my eyes. So I don't know his appearance. I remember his voice but much time had passed since than, his voice must have changed." explained Li Lian, remembering everything she could think of.

Not too much to note on, thought Li Jun Wei. There was too little of clues he had now to conclude he could be the one Li Lian had been searching for. Not to mention he don't remember anything on that day and the accident had also affected his memory of a year or two before.

Li Jun Wei's hand then moved on her finger, taking it he pulled her, and a smile came gently over his lips, "Three days after today, the Autumn Festival would be hold. Grandmother want to see you, come with me." He requested.

Li Lian thought that at that day it would correspond to the small party held at the end of this week. "I think I would have to attend by a party."

"No problem," He replied her, "The autumn festival would be held the day after that and we will be there to stay at grandparent's house. Once you are done with the party, we could go at night and stay there. What do you say?"

"I will go." Li Lian replied and he rubbed her cheeks by the back of his palm to say,

"Let's get you some sleep." On the word, Li Lian felt something was missing. She pushed her body by her left hand to moved down on the floor and her feet watched down to the floor to walk. Li Jun Wei looked calm to Li Lian as she couldn't see his expression but his back that was wide to cover all view from her. She was happy to see that Li Jun Wei seemed to be fine but after the short kiss, she felt like someone who had just run a mile only to be stopped before reaching the goal. There was a lost feeling for her elevated emotions to be sufficed.

When they reached the bedroom and Li Lian laid her body on the bed, she took one pillow and covered her face with it. Not to wake Li Jun Wei up, she sighed as many time as she could behind the cover without knowing how Li Jun Wei had watched and hear all the sighs she breathed out without missing any since she started.

Under the dark, Li Jun Wei smiled, pulling his lips wide at the struggle she showed to calm down and forget what she wished she could. He knew what effect he had done to her but Li Jun Wei didn't expect Li Lian would felt not enough by what he had done to the point where she couldn't sleep at all now.

Reaching out his hand, Li Jun Wei turned his body to hug her and the pillow she had placed over her face. Li Lian felt her little heart jumped, her eyes she tried so hard to close and fall to the dream land snapped open and she turned her face at Li Jun Wei who had hugged her.

"I thought you were asleep." she whispered, speaking each words very slowly as she wasn't sure if Li Jun Wei was asleep. While waiting she noticed how he didn't reply to her and she called again with her voice slightly raised, "I thought you were asleep." she hoped this time her words would reached to his ears but then he didn't reply at her.

Li Lian could tell this could be one of his teasing technique which he had done to her. She wondered if the term push and pull suit to what Li Jun Wei had been doing to her. This time she raised her voice louder with the intent to wake him up, "Jun Wei, I can't breathe." This should done the trick for Li Jun Wei to move his hand but instead, it became tighter. Li Jun Wei knew Li Lian tried to gain his sympathy to make him stopped and as a little punishment, he pressed his hand tighter on her waist.

"Jun Wei!" Li Lian called her again yet he didn't reply and she became more suspicious. Was it only her doubt that Li Jun Wei is sleeping because if he isn't, he would have removed his hand instead of tightening his hug. Nonetheless, Li Lian felt stuffier with the pillow on her face and hoped that by soon Li Jun Wei would release his hand from her.

Three days after that, Li Lian consequently spend her day to finalize the recording of her debut song. She wish to produce the best outcome and song, not wanting to make any mistake but out of all, she wish to enjoy her song. In the morning, Li Lian sat down on the couch and her hand nervously clasped before her chest while watching how her MV was uploaded and at the same time, her song was spread to the whole Country. Staying beside her was Wei Mo Ran and Li Xiao Chen as they grouped up inside Li Xiao Chen's office.

With the weather outside that was slightly covered with light rain, Li Lian felt her heart rate increases while watching how each minute, the number of people listening to her music raised by a single number.

"I'm sure you'll be fine, sister." Li Xiao Chen said, encouraging with his words. Li Lian felt thankful with his encouragement but she could tell with her eyes that watch how his feet that nervously stepped on the floor in rhythm showed that he was more nervous than her. To see someone feeling more anxious had her jumbling nerves to feel calmer.

Deep down, Li Xiao Chen thought that he and his older brother could pull many strings behind to make Li Lian famous in a snap of second. Such as the view of the music and video, he was sure Li Jun Wei could push the number to much more if Li Lian requested it. But they didn't. Li Xiao Chen and Li Jun Wei know how much concentration, training, and wish Li Lian put in her song. By pulling strings to make her famous would only disappoint and betray the hard work she poured.

"There would be nothing good coming by watching the counts," said Wei Mo Ran yet her hand was holding the tablet with her eyes continuously keeping tab on the news circulating in Weibo.

In most of the news, Wei Mo Ran could see Li Lian's name blooming everywhere and her lips were set to a smile. The competition Li Lian entered had been good to boost her career along with the video of hers that were popular in the social media. "Let's get some free air." Li Lian heard Wei Mo Ran suggestion and also followed to stand by her, agreeing at the idea.
