Since he was young, Li Jun Wei was the type to think everything in a practical way. He was almost robotic that one would instantly believe that he was an artificially intelligent robot.
For him to show love, laughter, jealousy, anger, and sadness, was almost a miracle to the world. However, once Li Jun Wei ate Li Lian's food, for the first time in his life, he could understand why other people would enjoy food.
Li Jun Wei continued. "My parents died when I was 11 years old. Xiao Chen was 3 at the time. Soon after my parents died, I was taken by my grandparents."
Li Lian thought to herself, 'Is that why Li Jun Wei is more mature than other people?' He had lost his parents when he was young, however, he didn't show his childish self since young and kept a mature air. It was something that almost unthinkable for a person like him.
He was raised as the top of other people since he was young. Perhaps that was also why he raised a barrier against him and the people around him, resulting in his robotic expression.
Li Jun Wei finally approached the important topic in their discussion. "Li Lian, could I ask about your relationship with your parents?"
Li Lian flinched and took another mouthful gulp of the wine. "Yes... Jun Wei..."
"Yes?" Li Jun Wei asked as he saw Li Lian placing her utensil down.
Li Lian bit her lips lightly. She knew that sooner or later her background would be asked by Li Jun Wei and had agreed that she would rather tell the whole story of her childhood rather than hiding the fact for a long time.
However, she couldn't help but fear Li Jun Wei's reaction to the fact that she was raised by a Yakuza family. As even her blood-related parents looked down at her in fear and distaste when they know that she was raised by the people that they deemed 'Ruthless and evil'.
That was also the reason why Li Lian was forced to sign a deal with Xie Family to never contact or mention the fact that she was adopted by Ryouma Family in exchange for Xie Family's recognition. At that time, she was in a relationship with He Chang Min and didn't want to drag him down and in the end, she signed the deal and left Ryouma Family.
When she first woke up from her coma, the second person that she wanted to greet after her foster mother was her grandfather. However, she wasn't such a thin-faced woman to greet her grandfather once again after what she did was deemed as a harsh betrayal to the person who raised her.
Taking her courage, the clenching on top of Li Lian's dress tightened. "This started when I was young... I was the only daughter of Xie Family and one day out of my status, someone worked together with a maid at our house and kidnapped me. They blackmailed the Xie Family and demand 30 Million Yuan in exchange for my safety. "
Li Jun Wei quietly gazed at her expression and felt his heart clenched in pain.
"Of course at that time, my parents wanted to do anything in order to save me and quickly gave 30 Million Yuan to the kidnappers. However, the kidnappers never once gave me back to Xie Family and declared that I've been killed. When in reality, they lost me on the way of running abroad. " Li Lian took another gulp of wine that made her whole face red and her becoming tipsier.
"The Xie Family apprehended the kidnappers but couldn't find me and thought that I really died. At the same time, I was found in Japan and was immediately taken into the orphanage. That's when I met the head of Ryouma Family who soon took me as his granddaughter. But then, I went back to China to search for a certain someone." Li Lian spoke before taking Li Jun Wei's hand suddenly and pulled the sleeve on his right hand all the way down to the back and continued.
"The person who saved me when I was once again kidnapped in middle school. My first love."
Li Jun Wei followed her eyes down to the horrible wound on his pale hand.
"That's when I met He Chang Min who fit all my clue of my first love in China. While I chase for my dream as a singer he and I were in a relationship at University. That person that you saw before, he was also my university friend."
Li Lian's eyes blinked in drowsiness. After almost 8 glass of wine, Li Lian who nearly downed the whole bottle of wine was finally attacked by the alcohol.
Li Jun Wei wanted to hear the rest of the story but was more concerned at Li Lian who kept on drinking the wine and placed his hand on top of Li Lian's hand to stop her. "You're drunk, let's stop drinking now. "
Li Lian gave a weird smile and shook her head vigorously. "No! I'm not drunk!"
After glass and glass of alcohol, Li Lian who had been absent from drinking now was utterly drunk. Deep inside her heart, she wondered whether indeed she was drunk of the alcohol or from the man in front of her eyes.
Although Li Jun Wei would definitely grant whatever his wife wished for, drinking until you dropped wasn't a good thing for her health. And so, he gave an eye of 'no' and cued the waiter to take away the wine bottle.
Li Lian frowned at Li Jun Wei as if she was glaring at the person who bullied her. "You're a meanie..."
Seeing the water who took the wine bottle away, the drunk Li Lian shot him a chilling glare as though she was warning him to put down her drink right away.
