Chapter 235: A Step Or Half-I
When Li Jun Wei took his steps away from her and walked to pour a glass of water, Li Lian’s feet walked back aimlessly and she touched her cheeks that felt like coal to her sweaty palms. She knew that everything was moving slow but it took Li Lian’s his words to understand that he was not as patient as he seemed when he had told her he would wait for her.
She saw a glass passed to her hand, Li Jun Wei gave her the glass as if knowing how thirsty she felt and she downed the glass in a go. She then passed the glass for him to take and when she saw him taking off his suits, she then watch him taking off the rest of his shirt. The smooth skin peeked out of the shirt as he pulled the fabric away from his shoulders- to his arm, placing it aside, he then turn his face at Li Lian who had been watching him strip from his back and grin.
In a condition reflex that their eyes met, Li Lian threw her gaze away to anything behind her, feeling another thirst had come to her mouth.
"Your grandmother’s birthday would be near, do you want to search for a present together?" asked Li Jun Wei as he turned his face up to see his wife turning his back so not to stare at his skin too intently.
"I would like to, I don’t know if there any shops which would be good to buy present." Li Lian replied, and she looked down at her shoes. Kneeling to the floor, she began to take off her shoes and placed it aside not to dirty the floor more than it needed to be.
"Last time, we were disturb by them before we are able to go to the shop, but the place is near for us to go." Li Lian remembered the hitmen sent to kill her. It had her wonder is Akasaka had truly killed the person who hired the hitmen? For the Tokyo Yakuza, the head of all Yakuzas it almost seemed impossible.
As if on time, Li Jun Wei then said, "The police have found the body that belonged to the person who had tried to kill you that day, before your coma."
Li Lian’s attention went on him, and she turned her head to see that Li Jun Wei had changed his trouser, leaving only his torso naked with clothes on bellow his hips. His hair was falling back to his neck, leaving all skin glowing with the light that fell from above him.
