My Husband is the Emperor : I Woke Up With a Husband

Violet raised her brows when noticing the frown on Li Xiao Chen’s face. His smile had also turned hard that fell to a straight line. Li Lian, on the other hand, saw what was happening from afar, Being the bystander, she could only watch, and from where she was, the words they exchange was barely laudable. Not wanting to pry into their problem by reading their lips, and be intrusive, she decided it was time to leave the place.

While Li Lian left the two continued to talk. Violet’s brown eyes shifted to the sky once before looking back at him, "Of course that wouldn’t happen. I wouldn’t let anyone kiss me as if it is a charity. Before they do, I kneeled them on their balls. That’s what they get."

Hearing her words, Li Xiao Chen felt better and his smile softened, "Which means if I had kissed you before you would have kicked me too?"

"No," Violet responded, her eyes looked at him was without the teasing gaze she had when they had begun their talk. "I quite like you, but if you had kissed me it would have been our last time talking forever. How do you know?" she then asked, "I don’t get how watching me for a few days would give you the idea that I was testing you."

Li Xiao Chen smiled, nudging to his shoulder he said, "I grew up reading people’s expression, like my brother’s for example, who is a million times harder to read than others around me. But yours take me a few days longer than I thought," and it was perhaps not only because Violet was good at hiding her emotion. For the days where he watched Violet, trying to read in between her expression, he found himself at times lost in trance, admiring her beauty. But this, he wouldn’t tell her now, not when they were not in a relationship yet.

He then took one step back, "I guess I pass your test now?"

There was a pause in Violet’s answer when a more sincere smile came on her face, "You do."

"Then from now on we can talk as equal," Li Xiao Chen raised his hand, holding to her hair that surprised Violet but she didn’t move, letting him to pull the leaf that had settled itself on her hair. "You can talk to me more about you, and what makes you test me. I will be there if you need a talk."

Violet saw him retreating his steps and was about to leave, "Is that all you want to talk to me?"
