My Husband is the Emperor : I Woke Up With a Husband

Once Li Lian arrived at the room where her foster mother was sleeping for a year now, sshe sat down on the chair adjacent to her sidebed and sat down with a smile. She didn’t want to cry again when her foster mother was resting.

"I heard that people in coma have the ability to hear faintly even in their sleep. It would help if you speak often, Mrs. Li." the nurse said, "I will be going now, you can call me if there are anything you need." and with the word the nurse closed the door, leaving the room for Li Lian to be left alone with her foster mother and Violet standing not too far from her. Violet checked the place first. Seeing that it was her foster mother who was in a vegetative state, she was considerate to walk out of the room to leave her space.

Li Lian noticed her leaving and smiled to thank her which was returned with a bow.

She stayed there and touch Yue Xiaoli’s hand which felt cold yet lively at the same time. Yue Xiaoli was the woman her grandfather found. She was an acquaintance of her grandfather and was the friend of Kei. The bond she shared with Yue Xiaoli was different than the rest of mother who adopted children. She was not her mother but a woman who felt like a close friend of her.

"You are still pretty as always, mother." Li Lian whispered, calling her mother as a joke as usually the woman would tweak her ears for calling her mother as she preferred to be called as aunt or sister.

"I am fine here now, my husband the person who saved me and you is a man who I can’t be more than grateful to have. You always say that you hope for me to have a caring husband," Li Lian chuckled, remembering the moment she shared with Yue Xiaoli. "and fortunately, I have one now. He is caring, a very kind person, and very handsome." she grinned at her last words, her smile widening and softening.

She then brushed her finger, and looked down for a moment, "I am going for revenge." she declared. "I know of it’s you, you will stop me but I wouldn’t stop. I was fine when she ruined my life, when she took what I had treasured, but to take the life of the people dear to me, I can’t forgive her." she could imagine what Yue Xiaoli would tell her. ’You can move on.’ ’Revenge is never good’. But Li Lian never plan to stop. She had planted the seed of revenge slowly and she knows that it doesn’t only take time but her patience but she knows there would be an end for Xie Hue Lin and the people who had concluded to kill her.

"This isn’t a good topic to be talked about with a person in coma." Li Lian said, pulling her lips she smiled again and continued to shared her stories. Hoping that there would be one story that Yue Xiaoli could hear even in her sleep.

Meanwhile, in Li Corporation, Li Jun Wei sat down in his office. When he had finished his work, he pulled his phone finding a number went through him and took the call. "Grandmother." he greeted first with a gentle tone, replying to his grandmother.

"Jun Wei-A, did you see Xiao Chen?" asked her grandmother in a hurry.

It had been a day after Li Xiao Chen finally achieve to take back his freedom and escape their grandparent’s house. Li Xiao Chen didn’t forget to ask his brother not to tell him where he was now as he didn’t want to be dragged back to the house and go through the process of blind dates again.

But Li Jun Wei was quick to betray him.

"He came back home." replied Li Jun Wei coolly, his eyes moved across the room to find his secretary coming in with a bow. He waved his hand telling the secretary to go as it was an important call from his grandmother but then the secretary gave an expression of worried as the call seemed to be important too.

He gave him a sign to wait and continue to the call. "Do you have something to do with him?" Li Jun Wei asked. Seeing how his grandmother called him, it would mean Li Xiao Chen had turned off his phone and his thought was on the spot.

"Yes, we still have many promises of blind dates but that boy, he ran away. I wonder how could he leave his room while it was locked?" Wondered Madam Li. She had make sure to make Li Xiao Chen unable to escape from the room but Li Xiao Chen found a way to leave with the narrow path.

"He escape from the window to the garden." Li Jun Wei explained the modus operandi, telling Madam Li so the old woman would now be able to put a stop so Li Xiao Chen would not try the same escape route again.

"So that’s how!" His grandmother beamed. "I will make sure to lock the window next time!" Li Jun Wei nodded as if agreeing, "Right, Jun Wei next time you come to our house, could you bring Li Lian? I heard that her family misunderstood her maybe she is feeling very lonely to be alone without family, I’m worried about her."

"Don’t worry grandma, there is everything she need in our house. Family too, she have me. I will do anything she needs."

His grandmother laughed, "Silly you, it isn’t that easy for a woman you know. A family is a family, a husband is a husband."

"Isn’t a husband a kind of her family too?" he asked, unable to understand it even with the intelligent and knowledge he had.

"There are different Jun Wei, some times your wife need to have a moment where she could breath and have fun in a different way. Some times maybe talk about you and have a girls talk." His grandmother wish to learn more about Li Lian. It was clear that the girl was a good wife, and Madam Li found no flaw from her. She couldn’t wait and was eager to know more about Li Lian, her granddaughter-in-law. From Li Xiao Chen, Madam Li heats little stories of how Li Lian was a very kind-hearted person and even when it comes to Li Xiao Chen, Li Lian praised him in a sensible manner.

"I can company her on that. She could also bad mouth me in front of me," Jun Wei explained seeming fine with Li Lian bad mouthing him.

Madam Li brought a hand to the bridge of her nose, "How could that even work?" his grandmother asked him in confusion, unable to understand his logic.

"It works the way it is. She talk in front of me the words she needs to say. That way too, we could learn more from each other, learning our mistake." explained Li Jun Wei to be key with a sigh from his grandmother. He did have a strong point that had his grandmother almost convinced by his entire words.
