"Can you pass me a glass of water?" Li Lian flinched at her spot at the sudden voice that Li Jun Wei breathed out across her neck. She was on her own world trying to shoo off her mind from imagining how Lu Jun Wei's body would be a feast to her eyes that she hadn't realized Li Jun Wei had ended the call with her grandfather to go back to her side.
Likewise, Li Jun Wei had not expect that Li Lian would be so surprised that her whole body jumped from the spot she stood at like a little cat who was trying to steal fish without being found out by the humans. Where now, the cat was Li Lian and the fish she tried to steal was Li Jun Wei's naked body image in her mind.
A shattering sound clang to rang out in the room. Li Lian who was surprised, let go of the clear glass water and before she could let go of the water jar she held on her right hand Li Jun Wei had grasped the head of the jar.
"Oh no!" Li Lian looked down in surprise to the broken glass. How clumsy could she be? She scolded herself in her mind as Li Jun Wei placed the water jar safe and keep on the table right beside her.
"Careful with your steps." he whispered to her ears that made her heart skip a beat. She could feel how smooth his hand moving to her waist slowly moving down for her tongue to tie. Li Lian felt no single displeasure of Li Jun Wei's nimble touches, however, she felt oddly conscious and sensitive when it comes to the movements of his fingers.
Leading her out of the mess of glasses shards beside her left legs, Li Jun Wei led her to the seat across the footboard slat. The maid that Li Jun Wei called to clean the broken glass knocked on the door and bowed to quickly scoot to clean the room where her eyes peeled beneath her bowed head to see of his sweet their master was to the mistress while holding their hand together in a seat that they shared.
So that she wouldn't ruin the sweet moment, the maid was fire up more than usual to clean the shards and bowed again before locking the door as she leave.
"Are you alright?" asked Li Jun Wei.
"Yes, I am. Sorry about the glass." Li Lian smiled.
"No problem, we have enough glass for you to break, don't feel sorry for one glass," Li Jun Wei smiled though his words were sweet to her ears, she felt embarrassed for breaking glasses.
"I will try not to break all of them." said Li Lian that Li Jun Wei chuckled by hearing it. So that they wouldn't sit while talking of the glass she had broken over and over again, she subtly change their talk, saying, "That's right. Have you told grandfather about this afternoon?"
Li Jun Wei nodded to give his reply, "He said that he would also help us to investigate the case. I will also keep a close eye to the case. As we have more clues, I will delve in it first."
"B-180." Li Lian murmured under her breath. recalling the one odd number that was archived in Nobu's phone. "What do you think it is?" she asked wondering to herself.
"Perhaps a codename." Li Jun Wei replied, leaning his back to the chair after taking a newer glass for him to drink.
"If it is true that was a codename, don't you think it's strange? If the person who hired those hitmen constantly changing their phone numbers with ones that anyone would be able to detect then whose phone numbers this one is?"
"I thought so too." replied Li Jun Wei. "There are some possibilities that I could take from the codename. Either this number is the hitmen' higher up or if this number they saved is one of their recruiters. Whether it is the former of latter, if we could find the clue to the code, I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to pull the rest informations we needed."
Li Lian nodded showing her agreements to his words. "Was that only what you wanted to ask to grandfather?" She questioned thinking that it was quite a short talk if he only relay the fights that happened this afternoon.
She saw Li Jun Wei shaking his head subtly, his hand placed the glass to the desk for the clinking sound to fill the silent room where only the two of them were there.
"I asked grandfather for more informations regarding Akasaka Harumi." The person who asked her hand in marriage, thought Li Lian.
"Grandfather said that there was a news that he will come tomorrow." continued Li Jun Wei that had Li Lian frowned.
"He wants to come to grandfather's house? But why?" This was worrisome to Li Lian's eyes. For Akasaka Harumi to want to meet grandfather to their house would mean that he would come to hold a discussion about her and because of how long grandfather had ignored his request for courting her which was not great as it also showed that Akasaka Harumi had grown impatient for their lack of reply. Grandfather silentness could also be take as him revolting against Akasaka Family.
"He does not know anything yet and grandfather said that he agreed to meet him," and Li Lian agree to his choice if he reject more questions would come in surface. "Tomorrow he will give us an update about that."
