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

"She knows nothing." Li Jun Wei makes it clear, clearing the air from pollution which he thought was good.

But that wasn’t what Ren Linliu claimed. Her eyes were clear to shout of how she knows everything about Li Jun Wei, thought Li Lian. Out of the two it was clear who Li Lian believes in more.

"But she acts like she do." He continued, his eyes going down as if in thinking, "What I didn’t know is that Nu Yuan and Linliu is now on a good term."

Li Lian turned her eyes, her interest piqued, "Do they have a bad term on each other?" she asked because from how they were it didn’t seem like so. They look like a close set of friends, holding hands and even going to visit the same person.

"They did, what were they doing there again?" He asked her, not that he cared but informations which are small was usually the components of a larger picture.

"They were visiting someone together, Linliu say she would be my friend." Li Lian replied, and the offer she doubt was without intention.

Li Jun Wei’s eyes moves as he smile, "You would not want to be her friend." he said and she felt him pulling the quilt and smoothened the edge.

Li Lian rose her brows curiously, eyes questioning as she watch him move, "Why not?"

"There is a reason why Linliu and Nu Yuan doesn’t get along. As you could see they are together could never be a good partners. Both of them having their own wants and need, using each other for their own interest." He replied to her, and she stared at him still.

Having the opportunity she asked, "I didn’t want to ask you because before, do you think Nu Yuan is..." she trailed not knowing how to fill her words as the words she found was not good to be heard.

"Awful?" He asked her then he clicked his tongue before bringing his finger to his chin, "Or perhaps unwelcoming, egoistic, or selfish, it should fall on either of those categories. She had played with me since little, most memories I don’t really remember because of the accident, but I guess the adults around her often whispers her something they shouldn’t, swaying them to be in that personality. Because the last time I remembered she was a cousin with a better heart than now." Li Lian thought that she was correct, her judgement wasn’t wrong.

Li Jun Wei then lifted his chin, and her eyes that strayed away from his face found his smile, "Even if she is the way she is now, Nu Yuan wouldn’t do anything to you, she knows not to. You’re her family too now."

She smiled, "People changes, some times to better or worse."

"It is unpredictable," he agreed to her words, moving from the bed, he stood and went to take a jar of water. Li Lian watch him moving, her eyes were staring at the glass of water he picked for a long time. By the time he came toward Li Lian who was still staring off the space, he was holding the glass of water, looking cold as a dribbled of water slide from outside the glass. "Thirsty?" He asked and she nod, after the bathtub journey she was more than parch and Li Jun Wei having his collars unbutton only make her feel more parch as if she had been running without drinking. Raising the glass to her lips, she drank the glass and bringing it down.

"When will I go to visit grandmother?" she asked him.

He took the glass from her fingers, "Every time you are ready."

Next day came fast, and it was time for Li Lian to come to attend Mrs. Sun’s tea party. After what happened to the stage she was supposed to dance at and Million Entertainment, her schedule was considerable free. She came alone, with Violet who stood beside her like any other guests.

Entering the house, she noted that the house was big but compared to Li Family’s it would be smaller, but nevertheless big for a normal person. The tea party was a term Li Lian wasn’t familiar with, their conversation, or their behavior, she was yet to know everything.

When she came inside, the woman who first greeted her was Mrs. Sun. She was the same as Li Lian remembered, smiling at her with the sweet look. But Li Lian didn’t know if she could believe to other’s sweet-looking smile. She had seen many and still was going to see more people like Xie Hue Lin.

"Mrs. Li, welcome to my humble house, I hope you could make yourself home although there are not many amusement for you, I hope the time you spend here will be precious." Mrs. Sun’ words confirm Li Lian that the woman have often hold parties or perhaps greeted people the way she did now. When she flashed a smile, Li Lian returned. The woman continued to show her inside, it seemed that the party had started but Mrs. Sun had personally come to usher her inside, "How was your trip to here?"

"It went well, there was no traffic on my way to here." replied Li Lian, her gaze moving around the house.

"That’s great to hear, there will be many people coming here, it will take time to get use to this but I’m sure you will be alright." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Li Lian looked at the woman. With the way she was talking, she felt that the woman was considerate to her and found that she noticed the woman knows that she was trying to become use with her surrounding.

"Thank you." Li Lian smiled at the woman’s words.

Mrs. Sun looked away, "You don’t have to thank me, actually Mr. Li was the one who requested me to take care of you." He did? Li Lian looked at her, so was he the one arranged their meeting too? "He is a good husband, talking care of you with the way he did." praised Mrs. Sun.

"He is very patient, I couldn’t ask more from him." Li Lian smiled and the woman laughed as if agreeing,

"It’s great to see you young couples are having a great marriage life." The woman held her hand in front of her waist, "There is rarely happy marriage couples in this place, to see you, as an elder woman, I feel more peaceful."
