"He’s not replying to my call." Li Ye Hua sighed where Jin Yu Nuan noticed his troubled expression and asked. "Who are you talking about?"
"Tsui Lan." The na had Li Lian to knit her brows faintly. "He said he’s leaving but only through ssage. He’s not a person to leave before the party end, so I’m worried."
"Why do you have to worry? Perhaps he just had so urgent business and left for it." Li Ye Hua denied his cousin’s suspicion. "A few days ago he said his grandfather relapsed and was rushed to the hospital. I’m worried that he’s alone now."
"You must be a very good friends to each other." Li Lian said and had Li Ye Hua smiling in agreent.
"We’ve been friends since elentary school." She sang a ’oh’ to his explanation. She had thought since before Li Ye Hua was very close to Wei Tsui Lan and now she understood the reason.
"Anyway, Cousin Wei is very late." Jin Yu Nuan said and at the ntion of his na, Li Jun Wei ca from opposite door of East Hall. Seeing Li Jun Wei who she had been waiting, Li Lian almost raised her hand and wave widely. Instead, she took a very fast step toward him. "You’ve finished?" She asked and saw him nodding. Rubbing his thumb on her temple, he spoke. "The party is going to end, right? It’s late, we should go ho now."
"You’re going ho already?" Jin Nu Yuan had walked beside Li Lian before she knew it. Turning her face, she found Jin Nu Yuan pouting her lips to sulk. "You rarely visit ho so you could stay for a longer ti."
Li Lian looked at her, her eyes narrowed at Jin Yu Nuan clingy behavior. Even when Jin Nu Yuan was Li Jun Wei’s cousin, she disliked the way she behaved. She took a look at Li Jun Wei’s face, still unreadable as always and t his gaze. "I will visit ho soon with Li Lian." He said taking her hand and brought her to the side. "Should we go ho, now?"
"We should speak to grandmother and grandfather first." She suggested and he agreed.
Li Lian stepped out of the house, her eyes wondering to see the night sky which had been letting down dribbles of waters. Perhaps due to the night that she didn’t see the rain but now that she gotten a closer look, the light shower had rained down for perhaps more than three hours. When they had gotten back ho, Li Lian went out and entered the house. As Li Xiao Chen was forced out to stay at Li Family for three days by their grandparents, they went ho only together. Seeing Li Jun Wei slowly taking off his suit, she pulled his sleeve. "Li Lei, there’s sothing I want to talk with you, alone. Is now the right ti?"
"Of course." He folded his suit on his left arm. "Any ti is right for you. We should go to the study room then."
"No!" Li Lian halted and held his hand. "Can we speak in your room?" Her offer had Li Jun Wei silent for a mont. He gazed at her pursed lips, her ears turned tipsy red from the shyness she felt.
"Are you sure?" Li Lian rose her brows as she looked up at his question and heard him speaking again. "If you enter my bedroom anything could happen." He had only wanted to remind her gently, telling her that he had his urge as a man and had thought she would brush his words. As he was about to say sothing, she nodded intensely. "I know."
"Then I don’t have to stop you don’t I?" She tilted her head from the side and felt his hand wrapping on her wrist. They both walked into Li Jun Wei’s room. As she had never took a good look at his room, she took her chance and glances around. His room was a typical room of what the master of the household would have. Although it was luxurious and bright, she noticed how Li Jun Wei floorings used wood instead of marbles which was different from other rooms in the mansion. "Do you like woods?" She asked.
"It made reminds a little like ho and relaxing." He replied and saw her chuckle. "That’s true, in Japan woods is often used as floorings especially because my house was a traditional house with furnitures mostly made out of woods." Her eyes recalled the image of her house. In winter usually the floor was too cold for her and her twin brothers would often bring heavy and thicker quilt for her to sleep, she recalled how Kei would bring a heater and in the end, they all fell asleep together.
"Do you like it?" He asked and she nodded. "Should I renovate your room?"
Li Lian waved her hand. "No need, I’m perfectly happy with my own room!" So tis she wondered how easy Li Jun Wei could easily spend his money and worried if he knew what the words buying limitation is.
"Really?"
"Yes, also if my room is renovated where will I be sleeping then? Your room?" She giggled at her joke. As they were still standing near the door, she was about to move toward the couch in front of his bed when she felt a pull in her waist. Bringing her head gently to the door, one of his hand stayed above her head. "Why not? My room is very relaxing." He leaned his head on her shoulder and a waft of lavender enveloped which make him feel relaxed. Although it was faint, he could hear her heart racing loudly and lifted his chin with a smile. Finding her cheeks blushed, he chuckled and went closer, cutting the distance between their lips by only a thread away. He didn’t feel her resistance, instead he felt her welcoming him.
As their lips were about to touch, Li Jun Wei felt his body stopped. It wasn’t him who stopped but the opposite. Li Lian had stopped him from moving by his chest. Perhaps he was too hasty? Disappointnt flashed in his gaze. Noticing his disappointnt, she spoke hurriedly. "Wait! Before we kiss there’s sothing I have to tell you."
