Chapter 396 - 377: Sneaking In-I

The days passed swiftly while Li Lian passed the days barely meeting Li Jun Wei. Somewhere she wondered if she was going through withdrawal syndrome without having Li Jun Wei anywhere near her for the past two days. On another sight, Li Lian pondered about the scene she stumbled upon yesterday. 

It happened around the time Li Lian stepped out of her room in the late evening. She was thirsty and wanted to refill the jar with more water from the kitchen. On her way back to her room, she was bored when thinking how she would be alone in the room that had never felt that way before with Li Jun Wei beside her. While thinking to make a detour before coming back to her room, it was at that time when she heard a soft voice talking,

"Our talk last time was disturbed. I was thinking of having another talk with you and who knows the time come this fast," It was Violet who had talked. Li Lian thought it would be rude if they found her and took a quick step to hide behind the nearest pillar.

"Is that why you are here now, in the garden?" Li Xiao Chen asked, and when Li Lian leaned her head forward, she saw how the two were talking. Violet had a smile on her lips that seemed more as if she was trying not to laugh. While Li Xiao Chen, on another hand, had an extremely serious face regardless of the smile he had on his face which was very boyish. 

Although Li Xiao Chen was often told to be a joker, one cannot forget how handsome he was. Especially how he had earned the crown of being Beijing's number one playboy. Having a stern expression on his face only made him looked somewhere similar to Li Jun Wei with the difference being the smile that he had. 

"Do you wish for that? Did you wish for me to come while walking around this garden? I know that some people knew I would be walking in the garden around this time. So I wonder if our meeting now is purely out of coincidence?" questioned Violet with her gaze fixed at the man whose tongue was tied. "I was wondering Mr. Li."

Li Xiao Chen was suddenly on guard from the word Violet said. His eyes appeared to be distrustful. In Li Xiao Chen's life, he had never met a woman like Violet before! A woman whose smile always stayed brief on her lips, and the look on her face that speaks as if she knew everything about him. With the gaze Violet gave him, it should have been uncomfortable, but there was something in her that unknowingly caught and pulled his interest.

"What are you wondering about?" He asked when Violet took another step forward, he moved back to preserve the distance between them.

"This." Violet pointed her finger to the empty distance between them that could fit for three people to stand in between. "Are you afraid of me?"

Li Xiao Chen looked at her hands. Unlike the power, she showed when fighting, Violet's hands were small. Her palms had callouses in them, showing how much she had trained to take the position as a bodyguard. It reminded him of the small mistake he made when meeting her at first. At that time he had praised his beauty purely because of how astonished he was when seeing her. She was beautiful, but that beauty didn't come only from her face, but the ambiance she had where she was confident. 

Li Xiao Chen finally let go of the internal conflict he had inside his mind, and his smile turned to a grin, "I thought I was a good book for you to read?"

Violet took a step forward. Her hand was on her chin and she rubbed it while staring at Li Xiao Chen who seemed to have made up a mind by not taking steps backward to avoid her. "Yes, you are correct. Until now, I don't think my interest in you disappearing. You are still a book that caught my interest. But I can't seem to find the answer now."

Li Xiao Chen parted his lips to speak when he suddenly noticed Violet moving fast toward him. The action surprised him. He was about to take one step backward when he felt Violet's hand on his shoulder, snaking both hands around his neck while standing on her toes. When her body pressed against his chest, Li Xiao Chen's smile fell in awe. His mouth was left ajar.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=14001462106962005)/chapter-377-sneaking-in-i_%!d(string=51558140956702217) for visiting.

"Maybe I could have a better understanding if I look closer to you?"

Li Xiao Chen could feel her breath, and a fragrant scent comes along when Violet's body pressed close to him. Not every man had the patience if their button was played and pushed, thought Li Xiao Chen, and those words work to him too. 

"What you are doing is wrong," Li Xiao Chen said, his eyes falling to her plump lips that twisted in a smirk. 

"What is wrong?" Violet reflected the question with another one. The grin on her face was playful as if she was playing tricks on him. "Seeing you fl.u.s.tered is good, but I should say I prefer more if you are aggressive. But I know you couldn't do that. A person with a very good heart like you wouldn't do anything out of manners. Is that how you were taught?" 

Li Xiao Chen tilted his face and a smile crept on his lips. "My family did teach me how manner is number one, and that to treat others with kindness and politeness, but that's not all," Violet raised her brows a little when she felt Li Xiao Chen's hands that were beside his waist moved to capture her wrist. And with one action that barely needed any power, he pushed her to the wall, his elbow then settled beside Violet's face. "I was told not to refuse trial and it is my principle to let myself be pushed by a woman."

Violet tilted her head, being pushed by Li Xiao Chen had her smile instead of shortening to stretch wider, "Because I am a weaker being than you? If that is what you think and that if pushed by a woman hurt your pride, I will tell you that you are wrong. I'm not so weak that I will get pushed lightly like this-"

"I know," Li Xiao Chen interrupted her from further talking, "I know well that I could push you here now because you let me to. I am not so stupid not to understand this. But you mistook one thing by letting me push you now." 

Violet stared at him with wider eyes as she saw his face leaned forward. Li Xiao Chen caught her surprise by saying, "I am not kind you know."
