Okay enough, thought Li Lian. She could feel the numbers floating across her head as she thought of comparing their wealths and it wasn’t a good experience. She saw his expression seeming as if he was waiting for her words but it was too much amazent that she couldn’t put in a single words.
"Wow! That’s a lot of wealth you have there, Mr. Li." For so reason, Li Lian began to call him formally but then again she felt she should do so.
"It’s not my wealth alone." he spoke and she agreed.
"Yes, you’re right it’s also your family’s." she whispered thinking there was his aunts, uncles, grandparents, and Li Xiao Chen.
"No, the rest of my family have their own shares apart from mine." There was still left after all of that?!
"Oh." she uttered in a low tone. "You will still be wealthy even if you don’t work for years, Jun Wei!"
"Mhm," he agreed but seeing her awe expression he added, "And it is also your wealth."
"Yes, my- Mine too?" Li Lian exclaid to see Li Jun Wei chuckling at her fresh and clumsy expression. Lifting his finger, he took her left hand and pulled the golden ring she had made as a necklace to showcase it in front of her.
"You’re my wife. Everything what’s mine is yours and what’s yours is yours." aning he didn’t need anything other than Li Lian herself. She felt her heart skipped a few beats and she didn’t know since when she had been holding her mouth to gape.
"You’re right," she whispered shyly, her head was filling dizzy and steamy with his words that it took her a lot of ti to think. To think that all this ti she had married a billionaire. It wasn’t that Li Lian didn’t know anything about him completely. She knew a few facts about him and had saw the real him around the house every ti she was by his side but she didn’t know he was not a normal millionaire. Then she thought of how stupid she was, she could have use her phone to search for Li Jun Wei but since the person itself was right in front of her she had never questioned and didn’t feel she should search for him.
"That’s right!" she suddenly rember and went to take her bag to pull an invitation from her bag. "Last ti, you ask to have an invitation to grandmother’s birthday, didn’t you? I received a new one today!" She saw Li Jun Wei took the invitation wordlessly and explained, "Xie Hue Lin gave to for the sake of appearance, I think and I don’t need two of them when I’m alone."
He had seen everything from the CCTV and knew his she had received the invitation and to think that the entire ti, she had been thinking of him made his smile to widen. "I will go." Then he look up, "Will it be alright if we t you grandmother together?"
Li Lian gave a swift nod. "My grandmother, she pass seventy this year. The last ti I saw her, she was so sick and weak. Her dream since before was to find a good husband and after what happened with ’him’ I think my grandmother was sad. It was her wish to et you so it cos without a saying that I should show her the husband I married to. Isn’t that right?" she crinkled her eyes, "I know it was my selfish wish to ask you hide our marriage but I promise this will stay only for half a year." her eyes were determined when she said half a year as if she had set the goal high and knew she would be able to reach it soon. "Grandmother knows my situation and she loves unlike other people and if I tell her, I know she wouldn’t tell anyone regarding our marriage."
"Okay." she felt him rubbing her head. "I believe you would be able to do so. Nu Yuan said you will be attending a tea party with the guest in the birthday party, will you be okay alone?" Though Li Jun Wei trust his family, he wasn’t blind not to know how there were people who covet Li Lian’s position and when he hoped it could be wrong, people’s heart was one that no one could guess.
"I’ll be fine, I have Violet with too."
"Don’t go too far from her." She obediently nodded and at the ti, Li Jun Wei’s phone suddenly rang. He took the phone reading the na of the caller for a few second and spoke, "It’s from your grandfather."
Li Lian quickly inched closed toward him, as he answered the call. "Hello?"
"Hello, You’re with Li Lian, Jun Wei?" it was grandfather’s voice speaking slightly hoarse and parch.
"Yes, she is here right beside ."
"Grandpa!" Greeted Li Lian cheerfully but despite the bubbliness of Li Lian, the Old Master was still stern with his voice.
"Good that you two are here." he paused and muffled a cough for three ti before going back to speak, "We t the son of Akasaka Family earlier. He ca early than the ti."
"How was he like?" Asked Li Lian, wondering how frightening Akasaka Haruhi was with the eerie rumors that have always followed him.
"He was like the rumor, he was fearless, courageous, calm, and crazy in his head." for the first two words it sounded like a great praise from the Old Master but when it cos to the last word, his tone grew stale like a foreboding thunder.
"What happened? Didn’t he ca only to introduce himself?" because from what she could tell from the call, the Old Master spoken from what he had experience.
"He did. Since the first ti he entered the entrance of Marble House, he had killed one person not from us but from his own group. After that, he did sothing else that was unimaginable."
Li Lian casted her eyes upward with confusion to et Li Jun Wei’s black ones. "Can you tell what happen from the beginning?" she asked.
