Li Lian took her hand to her chin, she tried to remember anyone she ever met from Akasaka Family but nothing came up to her mind. Her grandfather, Old Master of Ryouma Family was a strict man who still think a woman should not have a say to a man's work and to stay back as they protected them. Though the Old Master's latter thought changed after Li Lian began to study martial arts and fight for herself. The first one where Li Lian couldn't take part in Ryouma's matter was guarded securely and there were only three times where Li Lian greeted people from Yakuza. However, those three people were married and are the head of the families.
"I don't think I ever met him before. So why me?" Li Lian had Li Jun Wei shaking his head as an answer. "I also don't know the reason. Other than the condition he didn't give a reason." His eyes showed his dislike to how an unknown man had placed his eyes on the woman he love. His wife. "Your grandfather had said he had come up with a new condition with the son of Akasaka Family. For now he said to not come and visit him in Japan for the expected two more years."
"Two years?" Li Lian knitted her brows in concern. Since the few weeks ago, she had planned to have a talk with Li Jun Wei. To tell him the truth and her plan to meet everyone from her family members. Her family in Japan and the only person who thought of her well in Xie Family, Madam Xie.
Li Jun Wei smoothened the hair she divided to her left and tuck a few behind her ears. Placing his forehead to hers, he assured with a gentle voice. "Don't worry, two years will fly in not time, also you can't go to Japan now but you can call grandfather."
"That's true." Although she wanted to see her grandfather properly, the situation made it hard for her to do so but she could understand.
"Is that all your questions?" He asked again with his eyes staying on her red lips as his thumb trailing on her lower lips.
"There is one more thing." Li Lian hurriedly say, having her eyes fixed at his right arm. "Jun Wei, how did you hurt your right hand?"
"This?" Li Jun Wei folded his sleeve up and stopped when it reached his elbow. The wounds were each different in sizes, some stayed horizontally and the others were verticals. It stayed all over his hand and when people sees his wound, one would only wince their eyes in pity. Almost no space on his arm was spared from the wounds and although the previous stature had healed it left a patch of different pigmentations.
"I don't really have any memories from this wounds. I've guessed you had heard it from Mrs. Jin hadn't you? When she said that my memories were a bit of a blur after an accident, this was the reason. The doctors said I've lost too much blood and hit a dangerous nerve which also affected a my sensors ability." He couldn't see Li Lian's expression she made under her bend head. "It's a bit disturbing, isn't it?" He asked as he folded his sleeve again to cover his hand. All through Li Jun Wei's life his wound had made people look at him with different gazes, pity and mostly disgusts. He never cared of people's gaze but when his grandparents or little brother saw the wound, they would make a pained expression even though he can't remember most of the pain anymore.
Li Lian shook her head and stopped him from covering his wound. "It must have hurt." Her voice trembled as if she was the one feeling the pain. She can't begin to imagine how much fear and pain he had gone through when he received the wound. It must have hurt and the thought made her heart break.
Li Jun Wei chuckled and bumped his temple to hers. "It doesn't I can't remember what happened after all including the pain."
"Do you remember what accident it was?" Li Lian fixed her gaze on him. It had been years since she was kidnapped with a young boy who saved her when sharp broken glass rained on her back. The boy saved her but unfortunately, his hand was badly wounded the hand, Li Lian remembered were a right hand but she wasn't sure as she was temporary blind due to the wound she received. The wound Li Jun Wei had on his right hand was similar to the boy she was searching the entire time. If it was him then she could finally tell him what she had kept for years.
Much to her reply, Li Jun Wei shook his head. "I can't remember well but my grandparents said this was because a glass maker who came to our house accidentally broke it while I was near the place." Li Jun Wei saw the puzzled expression on Li Lian's face and asked. "What's wrong?"
Li Lian gave a smile and shook her head. "I was kidnapped years ago and a boy of my age saved me and because of that he was badly injured on his right arm. I thought at first it was you, but it seems I was wrong."
"Are you disappointed?" His words had the same worry he had on his eyes, but when he saw her shaking her head, he discarded his worries.
"Even if it wasn't you, the fact that I love you doesn't change." She said proudly and felt his thumb running on her chin to lift him forward and kisses her lips. He stayed calmly. Nibbling her thicker upper lips for once and a light kiss for his tongue to slide in to her moist mouth. Her lips welcome him very much, opening to secure his tongue and tangled around until he stopped for a moment to bring her back slowly down toward the couch. His hand lingered on her ears and his kiss deepened.
