Chapter 200 - 199: Lips Bite
Back in China, Li Jun Wei’s knuckles cracked when he heard the words ’widow’ from the Old Master.
"That was what happened?" Li Lian asked and shook her head. She can’t begin to imagine how cruel Akasaka Haruhi was that even compared to the rumors he was multiple times worse. To present the Ryouma Clan severed fingers and called it as a gift and killed his own subordinates as soon as he entered Maple House was enough to prove him as a psychopath the people feared him to be.
"The people who targeted us, which group do they come from?" she asked.
"Kei is on the search for the group in Tokyo that had disappeared. Thee should be early news about that soon." the Old Master was sure if he ask Haruhi directly the man would answer him but he didn’t want to do that. There should be many things for the Old Master to say toward Li Jun Wei regarding Li Lian but he knew the man would be a step faster than him. "Also, before he left, Akasaka’s son claimed that there are still people that would come for you. Be careful, Rian. Every steps you take is being watch."
When the phone called ended, Li Lian still sat in her chair with her brows furrowed. "If he knew that I’m in China why would you think he didn’t come here directly?"
"I don’t know but it is not for a good reason." Li Jun Wei stated and she could see the anger he felt in his eyes. "Did anything else happen in Million Entertainment?" he asked.
"Nothing much. Xie Hue Lin acted like usual. Maybe she planned to ruin my career starting by ruining my appearance slowly like she did in Xie Family but, I think I found something odd."
"Odd?" Li Jun Wei questioned.
"Mhm," Li Lian’s lashes fell down, shadowing her eyes, "Since I stayed in Xie Family, Hue Lin would often trap me with trivial actions. Such as the time when I offered an elderly guest with alcohol in a tea cup, or when she show how there was my hair I place in her soup, and others thing similar like that. The worse she did was maybe telling me to help her to get the fruits in a very high tree and told me to climb while wearing dress when suddenly father’s business partner came and embarrassed me."
"You were told to climb a tree while wearing dress?" Li Jun Wei’s voice grew cold and stale when he asked her words.
"Ah? Don’t worry I didn’t fall or anything, I often do that in Maple House and played around-"
"Who was it?" he interjected impatiently.
