Li Jun Wei didn’t move in response and only did turn his body slowly after a good one minute. Li Lian walked in front of him, stopping to reach out her hand to his cheeks. His eyes lingered at her face, "I am not angry to you."
There was no lie in his words, but Li Lian could sense what he is hiding, "But you are angry, not to , but soone else."
Wordlessly, Li Jun Wei smiled. His wife knows him all to well and it made him happy as well as delighted. It was true that he wasn’t angry to Li Lian. The person who had saved Li Lian ant a lot to her, and Li Jun Wei know this well. He also knows that despite the longing for Li Lian to want and et this boy, she doesn’t have the love she felt like she did in the past.
Li Jun Wei only felt angered to himself who couldn’t control the feeling of jealousy inside his heart despite Li Lian being right next to her. There was not the word ’enough’ for him when it cos to her. He wanted everything of hers, no matter how small it is even to the strand of her hair. Thinking about how possessive he was, made him embarrassed of himself. He even wondered why that day it wasn’t him who saved her.
A sigh softly rolled from his mouth and Li Lian felt his fingers that had turned cold brushed slowly on the side of her cheeks, giving her goosebumps on her back. "I know I might sound petty but he is not the person you are searching for. Currently, I have nothing to support my claim, but my feeling told so."
"I also don’t think he is the boy I was searching either," Li Lian answered, she just had the feeling inside her gut that didn’t doubt for a mont the boy who saved her years ago was Li Jun Wei and it wasn’t Haruhi. Problem was, she still couldn’t find out the reason why Li Jun Wei had forgotten about it, she was also curious why Madam Li seem to be hiding things about the accident.
’Jun Wei had been working too hard for the past week. It’s often that his hands would ache during the ti he felt tired, or during rainy season, and winter. It would be best if you remind him to take his dication. Because of how rare he took the dicine he often forgot it and thought the pain would disappear if he ignore the pain,’ was the words Madam Li told Li Lian back in their conversation before Jun Wei ca back ho. ’You just need to remind him about to it and I know he would be willing to hear your words.’
’I will rember to do so,’ Li Lian said for the elder woman to nod approvingly. ’Grandmother, it is about Jun Wei’s scars," she drawled, letting her words hang in the room while testing the water to see what reaction Madam Li would have if she brings up Li Jun Wei’s scars on his right hand.
As Li Lian guessed, a deep frown appeared in between the old woman’s brows, "What happen to his scars? Does his head hurts again?"
Head? Li Lian inquired in her mind. It was difficult to lie with how sincere Madam Li’s worry to her husband was, she didn’t want to lie but needed to, therefore while apologizing inside her heart, she nodded. ’He also said a few things like how he felt there was sothing off about his scars.’ Looking up, Li Lian wondered what she would see and caught Madam Li’s eyes looking at her widely in shock, as though she had just seen a ghost.
It was hard for Madam Li to pull herself together, but she managed to, ’Did he told you what was off about it?’ Li Lian responded by shaking her head. Madam Li imdiately put trust in Li Lian’s words without doubting a single mont as she believed the girl wouldn’t joke about such things, thinking about it had Li Lian to feel guilty. But direct approach is needed for her to find out the truth that both Madam and Elder Li had been trying to hide ticulously.
What was more unexpected to Li Lian was Madam Li’s next question which ca out hurried, ’What about Xiao Chen? Did he spoke about anything?’
’Spoke about what?’ Li Lian didn’t know why Li Xiao Chen was brought up in this conversation and she asked, but as if Madam Li had just woke up from her daze and shock, she seed to regret the question she asked and shook her head. The elderly woman then imdiately turn the conversation into sothing else. Li Lian wanted to question more, but pressing Madam Li with question would only do the opposite effect of having her to spill the bean, thus she cooperated to speak leave the matter for now.
Li Lian was once again surprised when Li Jun Wei told her about the scars on Haruhi’s right hand, because deep inside her, she felt as though she had find that boy inside Li Jun Wei. She also would never thought that the world would be soo small that three people with the sa wounds would et her.
"Could the wounds on his right hand is only fake?" asked Li Lian, knowing how cunning Akasaka Haruhi was, it was possible had had faked his own injury but Li Jun Wei countered her guess with a shook of his head.
"His hand was possibly injured when he was young, I know because I almost have the sa set of wound," Li Jun Wei explained her, and the wound had beco smaller and the color had faded, aning that the wound possibly happened only when Haruhi was young. "Earlier I told you it was because of my feeling that Haruhi wasn’t the boy you are searching for, but there is one more reason why I don’t think it’s him."
Li Lian raised her eyebrows, curiosity laced her voice, "What do you an?"
"There was sothing off about him. He didn’t seem ’normal’," there was a pause before Li Jun Wei said the last word as if he was trying to find the word that suited with what he had on his mind.
