Chapter 406 - 387: Who is at The Door?-III

Li Jun Wei entered the house welcomed with a hug from Li Lian. The hug wasn't all too sudden, but it took him off guard when her hand wrapped around his waist. His expression which was filled with solemness after the arrival of their enemy quickly turn a warm smile.

"Did you missed me that much?" Li Jun Wei teased her but unexpectedly Li Lian replied with an earnest nod.

She snuggled on his chest, remembering the words said by Madam Li of how long Li Jun Wei had waited for her who was in a coma, how heartbroken he was when he received the news that the possibility of her waking up was small. She had never seen what happened with her own eyes, but somewhere, Li Lian could imagine the scene of him sitting beside her bed, day and night and her heart squeezed.

"You were gone for too long," she whispered sounding spoiled. A few hours was too long for her, but what about him who was alone that one year? But it wasn't only a year, thought Li Lian. Li Jun Wei had loved her for longer than a year but he didn't approach her, knowing that she was in a relationship with He Chang Min.

She wondered what would happen if she had never been with He Chang Min but with Li Jun Wei, perhaps her life would be much better.

"What are you thinking?" Li Jun Wei placed his hand on her chin slightly, looking at her, "Did anything happen while I was not around?"

"Mn, grandmother came earlier," seeing Li Jun Wei's brows raised, she explained, "It was about the misunderstanding we created with Jin Nu Yuan and her family. Grandmother almost believed that it was true, she also spoke a few things," she drawled, only noticing Jun Wei's eyes on her filled with strong curiosity.

"Just a few things," she smiled, thinking to keep what Madam Li revealed to her as a treasure to herself. "How was the international conference? You prepared a lot for it, did it went well?"

The question she asked didn't receive a reply. As Li Lian had walked before him, she noticed the silence and turned her face to meet his eyes. Li Jun Wei replied, "Akasaka Haruhi came to the conference."

"What?!" Li Lian gasped, her eyes widening at the surprising news. She couldn't believe it and asked again, "Haruhi came to China?"

Li Jun Wei's frown drew tighter as another man's name escaped from Li Lian's lips. If it was others, Li Jun Wei would restrain his frown, but this was Akasaka Haruhi, the man who wanted Li Lian to be a piece of his plan.

Li Lian wet her lips that went dry when she heard about Haruhi's surprising visit to China. The man was rumored to be mad and even more than that which why sometimes the word 'crazy' wasn't even enough to begin to describe him. 

Worriedly her eyes looked at Li Jun Wei, "He didn't do anything to you, did he? Did he also talk to you?"

"He did, but he didn't do anything more than that, don't worry." By the time, Li Jun Wei and Li Lian left the entrance and were walking toward their room. "He only came to speak about a few things."

"What did he says?" It was hard to think that the man comes for a simple chat. Li Lian knows her worth in Akasaka Haruhi's plan.

"A few useless barks and he told me about the person who attacked us," Li Jun Wei's light-colored eyes cast to stare at Li Lian's inky ones, "He claimed that he wasn't the person who sent them."

Li Lian tilted her head, "Did he think we would believe his words?" 

"He believes so."

"Do you believe his words?" The few weeks had been silent as no people had come for them or attack them which leads Li Lian to wonder what happened.

"I don't but he does have a point for not attacking you," Li Jun Wei responded with a slightly unwilling tone, "His plan is to have Ryouma Clan to marry you for the contract and plan he made. If he kills you, it would only ruin his plan."

"Therefore there is someone else who planned to kill me?" Li Lian pulled her hand below her chin, wondering who could this person be, but there were too many people running in the Yakuza world which lead her to have no answer. "Did he told you anything else? You can tell me all that he says."

Li Lian didn't notice it at first but then she caught the way Li Jun Wei's gaze hardened and his pale tinted lips closed tight to its seams, "What's wrong?" Li Lian inquired in worry, sensing how off his expression was. "Did he do anything?" If he did, Li Lian swore to give Akasaka Haruhi more than a punch.

Unexpectedly, Li Jun Wei shook his head. As if it was hard to bring himself, he said, "Haruhi had an old scar on his right hand."

"Right hand?" Li Lian's eyes suddenly stilled at the words said by Li Jun Wei. Her heart for a moment jumped inside her cage. "Does the scars look like yours?" 

Only after a moment did Li Jun Wei nodded his head. Li Lian couldn't believe it, does that mean Akasaka Haruhi was one of the possible people who saved her in the past? 

As if reading her mind, Li Jun Wei spoke at the same time, "He might him-- the person you are searching for. That could explain his reason for finding you." He walked before her, entering the room, and Li Lian fastened her steps to reach beside him. 

Li Jun Wei began to take off his suit starting from his necktie with his back facing her once he entered the room. The silence prevailed for long. Li Lian didn't know why but she could sense anger from him as the room turn noiseless with both of them not saying anything. 

Carefully, while listening to the rustling sound of fabric as Li Jun Wei put aside the maroon necktie on the chair beside him, she questioned, "Are you angry?"

Li Jun Wei didn't look at her, his voice was low as he says, "I am not."

But there was an emphasis on his breaths when he said denied her question, "Jun Wei, look at me."
