Being inside the police station wasn’t Li Lian best forte. As a Yakuza’s granddaughter it was odd and weird for her to enter a police station even if she had done nothing to be feeling uncomfortable. She looked at how there were many patrol cars and other casual cars parked outside the building. Even though it was late, the building was filled with people who was busy to be in and out of the place.
Exiting the car, she saw of how the place was larger than she she first look at. There was the gleaming letters written bellow the large police emblem and she watched how there was police mber who was dressed casually stepping out from the building and looked at her for a mont. Li Lian first thought they were staring at her until she noticed it wasn’t her who they were looking at but the man behind her.
Li Jun Wei looked composed in front of the police station so greeted at him as if they know him well and from behind, Li Lian sensed soone being helped to walk out of the car, to see it was the sa doctor who was still too frightened to be able to see where they were being pulled by the bodyguard who had drove the car for them.
"Do you often co here?" she asked as her eyes moved from the pitiful doctor who had began to crouch on the ground pleading in fear to see Li Jun Wei.
"So tis, not often." Li Jun Wei said and explained, "I know many people from here, for protection and the rest are business purpose. I told you there were many coming for my lives, didn’t I? To make it easier, I worked with the police to rule the matter faster if we need to have a court." Which are rare because at most of the ti people who ca for his life ended died, added Li Jun Wei in his mind. As the information was useless he didn’t see the need to tell Li Lian.
"Oh," Li Lian sang, recalling his words and when she saw him walk, she followed from behind, when her eyes squinted. A sharp pain ca from her leg to her thigh almost paralyzing her and she fought herself that want crouched down on the ground.
Li Jun Wei stopped his feet, his face turned when Li Lian quickly pull her smile. Li Lian thought he had sothing to say which he forgot earlier when his eyes turned passive and narrowed down at her legs, "Are you alright?" He asked, softness appeared on his voice. "You’re hurt." He asserted.
"I’m not," she quickly replied and receive another stern look from him, "My leg just hurt a little because I pushed it too much right after my rehabilitation. But I’m fine how, I can managed this."
Li Jun Wei’s head began to tilt and he walked close to her. It was the sa leg that Li Lian had used to kick the glass open as her hands are comparably weaker to shatter the glass, Li Lian had used her leg to kick down the glass in the mont of pickle. She didn’t feel the pain nor did she felt herself pushing through the limits but Li Jun Wei knew that the reason for her leg to be pained now was to save him. As much as he is happy that what she did was for him, he didn’t like to see her getting pained or harm. Even if it was for his sake.
"Co here." Li Jun Wei beckoned her and she walked forward wondering what he was doing when she saw Li Jun Wei bent down. At first she thought he had co to check her ankle but in one swift mont, her feet was swept off the ground. Li Jun Wei carried her on his arm carefully, bringing and fitting her to his arm.
"We’re outside!" Li Lian felt flustered, people were curious on the police station and Li Jun Wei was the type of person who often attract eyes on him, and more spectators ca at them, wondering what happened until they saw him carrying a woman boldly.
"It would be weird if I do this inside our room." Li Jun Wei dismissed her worry and by the ti the bodyguard ca by their side, soone had also arrived to the police station. Violet went toward Li Jun Wei and when Li Lian saw her bodyguard, she thought she should pull sothing to her face other than covering it by her palm. "Violet call the doctor assigned for Li Lian." and soundlessly, Violet heeded by the words and went out as they entered the building.
Li Lian could feel more eyes on her even the people who was placed in the small jail for breaking little rules stared at them, making her ears brighter in the color of red. She pulled herself away and her face looked at him, whispering, "I can walk, I can really walk."
"Is this your first ti having your leg ache?" Li Jun Wei asked. He knows everything, thought Li Lian. There was almost nothing he didn’t know from her which wasn’t too fair as she knows less when it cos to him.
She sighed, "This afternoon, I felt pain, just a little but I thought it would get better soon." Li Jun Wei leaned toward her with his brows furrowed.
"Not all can be fixed or treated by sleeping it off, Li Lian. When you feel pain, what should you do?" He raised his brow at her, waiting for her to complete his words.
Li Lian felt slightly like a child being scolded. "I should tell you." she replied and his approval hum. When they reached by a place where there was a seat, she quickly pointed her finger at it, "Can I sit? I’ll not move, promise." she added her words, hoping she had persuaded him. Li Jun Wei went to the seat and placed her down. Before he went, he crouched down and bent down before the chair. He took off her shoes, carefully pulling the straps with his eyes collected on her leg.
Placing the shoes elsewhere they could see, he then began to touch the sole of her feet, feeling the plum that had her laughed. Looking up, Li Lian replied, "I’m just ticklish, nothing much."
"How painful did it feel?" He asked her like a doctor would.
"Just a sting, like a mosquito bite," Li Lian then saw his dubious eyes and she added, "A slightly large mosquito in hungry of blood."
"Li Lian." sighed Li Jun Wei and he massage her ankle carefully with enough pressure that felt good and relaxing. Li Lian felt her muscles that felt pulled slowly relaxed by his magical hands that always know what it was going to do and done it with perfection. She wondered if there is nothing Li Jun Wei can’t do?
"From one to ten, how painful?" Jun Wei asked, using the sa way the doctor had asked him. Gentleness ca on his deanor and Li Lian noticing it raised her hand to touch his hair that had fallen slick on the side of his face. "Li Lian?" He asked her and Li Lian realized how she had dozed off.
"Three, I think." replied Li Lian to his question. Her eyes then shifted to the room where they were and she asked, "What are we doing here?" she asked and Li Jun Wei helped her wear the shoes again before standing up.
"We’re waiting for the person you’ve seen before, Ruen. He will be in touch with this matter." and as if on ti, the man appeared from the corridor that was on the far left corner from where they were.
Ruen appeared in a hurry and Li Jun Wei saw him making his run to Li Jun Wei. "I’ve received the call from the firefighters. The place is clear for now and the fire had been put off. So part of the building is burn but it isn’t too much burnt as only a single room was burnt along with the backyard." He placed his hand on his forehead and shook his head, "Anyway, everything is fine and only one causality have been reported. What about you and Mrs. Li? Are you two fine?" The man asked with concern as it was his responsibility as a police mber to care and prioritize the citizen’s well being.
"We are alright. Did you succeed in apprehending one people there?" asked Li Jun Wei for Ruen to sigh and pressed his temple.
"This is the problem. By the ti my people co to the site, they t your bodyguards who were able to apprehend one of them. The rest of the people killed themself and when we were a put to transport the suspect, one of my people killed him. He is a detective under a different section." Ruen explained.
Li Lian drew her brows at the explanation, "Why did the detective killed them?" she asked finding the news to be far too surprising.
"The reason is unclear." said Ruen and Li Lian’s already raised brow to raise higher. "I tried to find out and asked the man but, soon after he had killed the attackers, he killed himself in the scene." Ruen sighed again before he looked at Li Lian and Li Jun Wei, "My best guess is this detective worked to kill anyone who could possibly still alive. Just like last ti when you were attacked, the second group which was sent to kill your attackers to leave the mastermind’s na a secret to death."
