Chapter 402 - 383: Setting Intentions-II
The silence prevailed in the room. Fortunately there were only two people in the room, both having a severe look on their eyes as though if a third person enter, and the latter was too weak to manage himself between Li Jun Wei and Haruhi, it was possible to be traumatized by the tension.
"Whether she is a pawn or not, the person who gets her decides what she would be," Haruhi answered without thinking about Li Lian. It was clear from the man’s tone that he thought of her less of a person and more of a bridge for his ideal.
Li Jun Wei’s brows furrowed, he didn’t like the way Haruhi had talked and a smile curled on his lips, "Then that’s a shame, Li Lian is mine already. You don’t get to decide what to do with her."
Deciding nothing else to say, Li Jun Wei stood up from his seat, and Haruhi who had been smiling pulled one corner of his lips wider, tilting the line, "Leaving? But it’s not the end of the fun yet. You guessed earlier that I didn’t come only for a greeting, why don’t you guess what am I about to do?"
"I refuse," Li Jun Wei answered, turning his eyes to give the younger man a side way glance, "All I need to do is to destroy all plan you have, there’s no need for idle talk. Do what you’ve come to do and enjoy what is about to come to you if you try to touch my wife. I don’t enjoy seeing people suffer, but I do very much enjoy to see people who is harming my wife slowly falling down to experience agonizing hardship."
Haruhi didn’t deter after the bold threat Li Jun Wei stayed. If a threat could have scared him, Haruhi wouldn’t be feared in Japan. "Unlike my first impression, Mr. Li I have to say that if not for our circumstances we could have been friend," said the man with an amused tone.
"It’s your right to imagine, but I doubt that would happen. I don’t befriend people like you," Li Jun Wei answered, his brown eyes that had been accessing Haruhi’s expression and movements, also notice the light wound that appeared on the man’s right hand near his wrist, the wound had faded but was quite deep as it enter beneath his sleeve. Haruhi seemed to notice this, in fact, he had used a shorter sleeve today to show the scar that he had.
Every relationship is akin to a sailing ship, to bring the ship down, first start with a ripple, then a wave, and next is to wait for the ripple and wave to bring forth whirlpool to have the ship sink. Haruhi knew what the scar on his hands mean to them and he raised his hand, the same hand that Li Jun Wei was watching, "Are you curious of my wound. Like yours I received this wound when I was young. That’s right! Now that I remember, there was words running in Japan years ago where Li Lian was searching for a man who had wound like these. What do you think is the chance for people with deep scars on the right hand to be in a room together?"
"How do you know Li Lian?" questioned Li Jun Wei, getting straight to the point. As he thought it wasn’t easy to draw out words from Haruhi. He knew about his wound, he also knew about Li Lian’s past and how she once searched for a boy who had saved her from the kidnapping in the past, there was more in the man than meet the eye.
