Chapter 142 - 138: When Are You Going To Move To My Bed?
Li Jun Wei crossed his legs and arms, having his eyes to follow Li Lian’s lips moving as she speaks. Li Lian purposely took the call not too far from him but as she spoke with the softest tone, her words were hard to catch on. When he saw her turning her face to see him, he pulled a gentle smile and she returned with the same one.
"Don’t worry, brother. I will be fine. Jun Wei, he protected me more than you think." The words she spoke came from her deepest heart, recalling the time where her parents and sister came to force her back to the Xie’s Family house. At that time, she can’t express how happy she was to see him appear in the time she needed help the most.
"Silly, of course I know that and that is why I entrusted you to him, I just want him to be extra careful now." Shun said and felt Shin pulling his phone each time he was speaking. "It’s late now, take care of yourself, I will call you later again. Good night."
When the call ended, Li Lian turned her back to be in a long thought. Li Jun Wei noticed how she was caught on her thought to stand up and wrapped his arm on her shoulders. He was still in a joyful occasion where Li Lian first confessed to him. For a person who have held years of unrequited love, it wasn’t questionable for him to be wanting on having her stay by his side longer.
"What happened?" His voice gentler than a cold wind to her ears.
With the truth where Li Jun Wei knows many things about her, Li Lian didn’t hold back on her thought. After all, there was no need. Like any others she want to place her complete trust on her other half.
"Jun Wei, there is something I have to talk to you." She said and a focused tone came from her lips. That day when she was attacked she had told the person who saved her from the danger were her twin brother’s but there aren’t any need to not tell the truth now.
Li Jun Wei throughly heard her words. His gaze was unreadable but one thing she knows, he didn’t seem to hold any surprise by hearing her combat skill. At the end of her story, her voice faded back. "It’s not that your bodyguard aren’t strong, they were but the opponent are stronger then them." She explained. "Shun said he went to see the ringleader who attacked me, but the person was found dead on his office."
"If the ringleader is dead then, we can only come to one conclusion, he must have been used as a scapegoat by the real attacker." He stated calmly.
Li Lian heard his words to knit her brows. "Then, as Brother Shun expected." She whispered.
