Chapter 402 - 383: Setting Intentions-II

The silence prevailed in the room. Fortunately there were only two people in the room, both having a severe look on their eyes as though if a third person enter, and the latter was too weak to manage himself between Li Jun Wei and Haruhi, it was possible to be traumatized by the tension.

"Whether she is a pawn or not, the person who gets her decides what she would be," Haruhi answered without thinking about Li Lian. It was clear from the man's tone that he thought of her less of a person and more of a bridge for his ideal.

Li Jun Wei's brows furrowed, he didn't like the way Haruhi had talked and a smile curled on his lips, "Then that's a shame, Li Lian is mine already. You don't get to decide what to do with her." 

Deciding nothing else to say, Li Jun Wei stood up from his seat, and Haruhi who had been smiling pulled one corner of his lips wider, tilting the line, "Leaving? But it's not the end of the fun yet. You guessed earlier that I didn't come only for a greeting, why don't you guess what am I about to do?"

"I refuse," Li Jun Wei answered, turning his eyes to give the younger man a side way glance, "All I need to do is to destroy all plan you have, there's no need for idle talk. Do what you've come to do and enjoy what is about to come to you if you try to touch my wife. I don't enjoy seeing people suffer, but I do very much enjoy to see people who is harming my wife slowly falling down to experience agonizing hardship."

Haruhi didn't deter after the bold threat Li Jun Wei stayed. If a threat could have scared him, Haruhi wouldn't be feared in Japan. "Unlike my first impression, Mr. Li I have to say that if not for our circ.u.mstances we could have been friend," said the man with an amused tone.

"It's your right to imagine, but I doubt that would happen. I don't befriend people like you," Li Jun Wei answered, his brown eyes that had been accessing Haruhi's expression and movements, also notice the light wound that appeared on the man's right hand near his wrist, the wound had faded but was quite deep as it enter beneath his sleeve. Haruhi seemed to notice this, in fact, he had used a shorter sleeve today to show the scar that he had.

Every relationship is akin to a sailing ship, to bring the ship down, first start with a ripple, then a wave, and next is to wait for the ripple and wave to bring forth whirlpool to have the ship sink. Haruhi knew what the scar on his hands mean to them and he raised his hand, the same hand that Li Jun Wei was watching, "Are you curious of my wound. Like yours I received this wound when I was young. That's right! Now that I remember, there was words running in Japan years ago where Li Lian was searching for a man who had wound like these. What do you think is the chance for people with deep scars on the right hand to be in a room together?"

"How do you know Li Lian?" questioned Li Jun Wei, getting straight to the point. As he thought it wasn't easy to draw out words from Haruhi. He knew about his wound, he also knew about Li Lian's past and how she once searched for a boy who had saved her from the kidnapping in the past, there was more in the man than meet the eye. 

With nothing left to discuss, Li Jun Wei walked over to the door which was made with tinted glass that prevent the others on outside to see inside and likewise when Haruhi spoke without looking at him, "I forgot to warn you. The accident that happened where Li Lian was attacked twice, of was it thrice? It wasn't I who orchestrated the plan."

Li Jun Wei raised a brow, his face turned sideways to Haruhi. 

"As you might have guessed there are people who do not want my marriage with Li Lian. Other than you, and the Ryouma Clan that is. You should be cautious for the attack wouldn't end until you pull the root of the problem. Because I feel generous tonight, I will tell you a clue, that sister of Li Lian might know this person."

And that root of problem was the odd codename in the phone call, and Xie Hue Lin who was connected to the time where Li Lian was attacked a year ago. Li Jun Wei's eyes narrowed not only because of the dots he needed to fill, and Haruhi's intention for telling him this.

Wordlessly, Li Jun Wei left his room and immediately his assistant came to his side, "Sir, Mr. He is waiting downstairs."

Li Jun Wei's brows furrowed deeper. He still haven't let go what He Chang Min did on Xie Hue Lin's birthday. While He Chang Min was useful for his plan, he didn't intend to let the man touch Li Lian even if it was for pity. The fault had been made by the man, and it was time for him to receive his punishment.

On the other hand, Haruhi went out of the room with a wider smile and a whistle between his lips. A subordinate came behind him, giving him his phone that had just received a call. Taking it, he heard the voice of his younger sister from the other side of the call, "Brother, I found someone that I have taken a very fond of! There are two of them, like a mirror, handsome faces but different personality."

Haruhi could tell the hidden intention beneath his sister's spoiled voice. "Are you calling me because you found someone that you like, that's it?"

Naomi's smile curled, "Didn't last time, brother wanted me to help you in your plan?"

"Yes, but you rejected it because it was boring for you," Haruhi stepped out from the building at this point. "My plan almost failed, but it is your choice to make."

"Well that is last time, but my thought have change. Before I thought the offer didn't shine well, it is different now. I will help you but you know me, it's not going to be for free. My condition is simple. I want to see and have those twin for myself."

"Twin?" Haruhi raised his brows, "I should say this offer is better than your last offer to have the severe head of our step mother. It was quite difficult last time."

"But in exchange, you have your position now, brother," answered Naomi, a laughter followed her words which was similar to Haruhi's. If one hadn't heard what they were speaking of, they would have guessed it was a friendly talk between siblings about their daily lives, "And mother's head isn't as pretty as I thought. I have sent it toward where our father is now, in hell."

"You are correct, I didn't think mother was as pretty either," Haruhi amused, "Alright. What are their names."

"Ryouma Shun and Shin," answered Naomi, her eyes curled as her smile was pulled deeper. She raised her feet, her eyes falling to the man who was currently under her heels with blood gushing from the man's eyes and ears. When she saw the breathing had stopped, Naomi kicked her heels, waving her hand to tell her subordinate to take care of the mess she made. Hearing Haruhi didn't reply, Naomi crooked her brows, "I heard they are the older brothers of the woman you have to marry. I met them in the club...Brother? Are you still there?"

"I am. Really what a trouble you are, Naomi. I will take care of the twin for you then," Haruhi answered, "But you know that we'll need a different approach than last time, don't you?"

"You mean, by acting kind? That's not fun."

"What matter is your first impression. If you could win their heart, then you could do what you like after. If they try to run from you..." Haruhi hang his words for her sister to fill, adding only lately after, "I trust that you know what to do. You've seen what father did."

Naomi took her time thinking before she nodded, "Okay!"
