Chapter 306 - 287: Win Or Lose-II

Li Lian shifted her gaze to follow Li Jun Wei's line of sight to see Jin Nu Yuan, Jin Suzheng, and his wife coming together. The 'they' he meant was them, thought Li Lian. "Did they win last autumn festival?" asked Li Lian and Li Jun Wei shook his head,

"Last year Xiao Chen won, two years ago was them and three years before was me," He explained, and just when Li Lian was about to praise the family he added, "Do you want to guess who won four years ago?"

Li Lian tilted her head in question and she rewinds Li Jun Wei's words, finding that the sequence was somewhat odd. The first year was Xiao Chen, the next Jin cousins, and Li Jun Wei. Taking the guess, she spoke, "They won?"

"Correct." Li Jun Wei kissed her cheeks as if to reward her.

Li Lian was happy with the kiss that her smile raised on its own but somewhat she felt at loss. "Did you and Xiao Chen did it on purpose?" asked Li Lian. Did the two have been playing with the cousin the way they did? Rather than winning, to let other win seemed to be harder in comparison.

"Last year Xiao Chen was on top of his game and I thought to let him win. But a few years ago, it was only me who did it. It would be bad for me if I let them win the entire time. For the peacefulness sake."

Li Lian asked, "Did they know?"

"They don't if they do, by now, they would throw a fit." His last words grew in a tease and slight mischief.

"They don't know? How long have you been doing that?" Was Jin's family filled with airhead that they didn't know what Li Jun Wei did or came to accept it?

"Since I was thirteen." and Li Lian turned her head at Jin Suzheng who had arrived beside Madam and Master Li, following Li Jun Wei's eyes that moved. Jin Suzheng exchanged a few words with Master Li while Linyue hugged Madam Li, having to meet the older woman with a smile, the woman had a very kind smile thought Li Lian.

When they arrived beside them, Jin Suzheng greeted Li Jun Wei with a handshake he returned, "It's been a long time since we meet, we should have dinner one day, us together with our wife. I'm glad that my younger cousin finally has his own family, you made grandmother worried, you know."

"Not as much as you," replied Li Jun Wei with a deadpanned tone that had Jin Suzheng's brows twitch that Li Lian caught and when her chin was lifted down, her eyes met Linyue who smiled at her and she returned the smile.

"I heard mother left," started Jin Suzheng, "It's such a pity because I wanted to give her the present I have with me."

"Is it the souvenirs from Thailand?" asked Madam Li and Jin Suzheng widened his eyes.

"Grandmother, did you heard of my trip?" asked the man as if he didn't know of his trip having mentioned at the dining table last night when in truth, he had done many things as soon as he received the information from his sister to rescue hid secret trip to Thailand.

Jin Suzheng didn't know how Li Jun Wei was able to know of the trip when his mother hadn't heard of it yet. Like most of the family members, they like to keep a tab on each other, but Li Jun Wei's informant was much skillful than anyone's in the house that he was able to find dirty secrets on other family members without needing to waste time.

But Jin Suzheng didn't know that Li Jun Wei didn't have to dig when their dirty secrets were already put all open before him.

"Jun Wei mentioned it in the dining room," Madam Li said, not noticing how her grandson had exchanged their hard gaze in each other. "Did you had a good time in Thailand?" asked Madam Li.

"I was there for work and didn't travel much, but I did have a good time working there," said Jin Suzheng with a small smile.

"Suzheng since childhood had been a doting son Aunt Jin raised, he would never forget having his souvenir while he is out of the country." Li Jun Wei said and he shifted his eyes at Jin Nu Yuan to see how his cousin sister didn't look at Li Lian again despite wanting to glare at her which Li Jun Wei didn't miss to notice.

It would seem that his little words were able to put his cousin a little lesson.

"Mother is the one who brings me to the world, of course, I will be a doting son to my mother who is alive and well," said Jin Suzheng, posing as the very obedient son.

Master Li gave a nod to his grandson like his wife to then say, "Let's not stand here, the family room is empty for us to go."

Li Lian saw Linyue smiled at her again. Since the first time they met, Linyue had done nothing but smile pleasingly to her thought Li Lian despite how her husband and Jin Nu Yuan was, Linyue seemed to be a person of a kind heart.

As they walked, Li Lian who was watching Linyue heard Li Jun Wei's voice to her, "Linyue doesn't know her husband went to Thailand."

Li Lian raised her brows, her quizzical expression took place on her eyes, "She didn't? But earlier she seemed to say nothing of was surprised."

"Suzheng told her before revealing it in front of anyone." Li Jun Wei said coolly. "He must have learned from Nu Yuan that his secret trip had been known to many in the dining room last night and quickly put action his journey to stop anyone from having suspicions on him." Without being in the same room or time with Jin Suzheng, Li Jun Wei could guess what had taken place a few hours ago before he comes from.

"Did he lied about his trip to Thailand?" For what?

"That day, the person who came with him wasn't his wife, Linyue but a different woman. Without anyone knowing, Suzheng took himself out with a woman he fancied and stayed for a three-day trip there." Li Jun Wei's eyes that were on his older cousin was with a frown and disgust.
