' Drrrt '
Shun's phone vibrates under his pants, bringing him back from the strands of nostalgic memories. He took his phone out and check his message. Immediately he wrinkles his brow and sighs.
He turns his face only to found his brother sighing along with him in front of his phone." Shin, you also got the news? "
Shin nods, " Yes. "
Not knowing what to do, Shun looked up at the stone-like Jun Wei before he turns his face back at Li Lian. ' This is not in the right time...But... '
" Mr. Li, we need to go now, something urgent came up. " The twins stood in unison, taking the jacket they placed behind the couch.
Hearing something from the living room, Li Lian walk towards them with a bowl filled to the brim. " Ge Ge, you're going now? But..." She looked down at the bowl.
Shun scratches his head, looked down at the bowl, " Rib peach soup! Uh... But we need to go now. " It's certainly their favorite food of all time, but ever since they heard the news of her death, it was unbearably painful to even mention the name of the soup.
Shin understood their feeling and tap Shun shoulder, " Li Lian, we need to go now don't worry we can come by soon. "
The twins had sensed that all this time Li Lian was pushing herself to give a smile. After all this time of not meeting each other, it was hard for her to hold back her cry. She wanted to tell them how worried, scared and anxious she was all this time, but she couldn't possibly tell all this to them abruptly.
Holding back all the words she wants to speak, a warm palm covers her shoulder. She looked around and her gaze collides with Jun Wei.
Jun Wei, " Don't worry, as they said, they can come anytime. "
Tears glazed her eyes as she nods. Following the twins to the outside of the house, Shun quietly dragged her away from Jun Wei for a few minutes.
Shun, " Sister, you didn't tell him anything about today's attack? "
Li Lian shakes her head, " No...After all, this is my problem and also..." ' I can't possibly drag him to my problem ' written all over her face.
Shin sense Li Lian hesitation and chipped in, " How about miss Yue Xiao Li? "
Li Lian's expression darkens, " Mum...she's in hospital. "
With only those words, they understood that there's something else deeper behind the news of her death. The clutching on their knuckles tighten and turn his palm to white. ' Those as*holes! '
Li Lian notices their anger and took their palm softly, " Ge Ge, I-this happened because of me. I will end everything myself, don't worry. "
The twin's eyes mellowed, Li Lian has always been like this since she was young- Hiding her problem, assuring that everything will be alright, and never want to share her burden to anyone. She's always been afraid of letting anyone in her heart and made a bridge between her and everyone else.
Shun ruffles her hair, " Stupid girl, we're your brothers y' know. Of course, we will always worry about you. "
Shin nods agreeing with Shun, " If anything happened, just call us."
Shun looks behind Li Lian and point Jun Wei with his glance, " Him, is it he the one you're searching all these years? "
Li Lian was quiet for a while, " I don't know...Maybe it's him. "
They didn't want to interrogate her any further, after all, this is her problem and it's out of their place to keep on asking her. "Anyway, " they pat her head " Believe me, that man, he will accept you no matter who you are? "
Li Lian tilts her head, " Why? How do you know that? "
The twin's lips curl to a smile and laugh, " Y'know, a feeling. "
Not long after, they went inside the car and disappeared into the darkness. Li Lian stood silently watching the silhouette of the car slowly growing further. While she was still standing, suddenly something warm envelops her shoulder. She tugged at the thing on her body and saw a fluffy white blanket wrapping her.
Jun Wei, " It's cold now, take care of yourself. "
Li Lian turn her head toward him, feeling the soft breath near her, Li Lian's face reddened. She fan her hand towards her heated cheek and staggered backward clumsily. " Ah-! " Stepping backward too suddenly, her feet slip a step, she shut her eyes tightly and was about to turn her body to avoid the fall.
But before she could turn, Jun Wei's hand has already embraces her waist strongly. He scrunches his brow, the usual expressionless face turns dark. Finally securing her in his hands, Jun Wei exhale his tensions.
Jun Wei, " You need to be careful, you're still in rehabilitation. Don't move too quickly. "
As if cottons filled her ears, Li Lian felt her ears buzzing with and only harsh knocking from her heart filled her mind. Gazing at his light-colored eyes, a gasp leek out from her thoughts.
Jun Wei looks at Li Lian suddenly froze without any reaction. " Li Lian, are you alright? Are your feet alright? Did you hit something? "
Only after a moment of staring did Li Lian came back from her daze. Still a bit blank, she unconsciously shook her head. " I'm okay, nothing is wron-"
Li Lian's words come into a halt, her eyes stare at the sharp straight stitching wounds on his arm. For a long time, Li Lian had been wondering, ' Why do Jun Wei always wear long-sleeve clothes? ' But never dared to ask him thinking that it was only his preference.
To This day, she didn't know the olde wounds filling his right arm. Her eyes widened and lips starts to stammer, " Y-" Before she could ask, Jun Wei, pull his sleeve, covering his right arm.
Jun Wei's hand pulled her waist closer before she knew it her view had changed towards the ceiling. Carried on top of his arms, Li Lian's body flew mid-air easily.
Jun Wei, " Let's get inside and check your ankle. It'll be bad if you sprain it. "
Li Lian's lips opened slightly as if something lump in her throat, she held back her words. Thinking deeply in her chaotic state of mind, she mumbles in her heart, ' Wounds on the right hand, Left-handed, the only son of a prestigious family...'
Drifting memory and warmness of the past linger to her heart," B-But...that's not possible... Isn't that boy is Chang Min...Or...is he not?'
Li Lian mutters, " Don't tell me...I've been wrong this entire time?! "
A sudden marriage that she agreed to continue, slowly unfolding the past of the two.
