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

When Li Jun Wei took his steps away from her and walked to pour a glass of water, Li Lian’s feet walked back aimlessly and she touched her cheeks that felt like coal to her sweaty palms. She knew that everything was moving slow but it took Li Lian’s his words to understand that he was not as patient as he seemed when he had told her he would wait for her.

She saw a glass passed to her hand, Li Jun Wei gave her the glass as if knowing how thirsty she felt and she downed the glass in a go. She then passed the glass for him to take and when she saw him taking off his suits, she then watch him taking off the rest of his shirt. The smooth skin peeked out of the shirt as he pulled the fabric away from his shoulders- to his arm, placing it aside, he then turn his face at Li Lian who had been watching him strip from his back and grin.

In a condition reflex that their eyes met, Li Lian threw her gaze away to anything behind her, feeling another thirst had come to her mouth.

"Your grandmother’s birthday would be near, do you want to search for a present together?" asked Li Jun Wei as he turned his face up to see his wife turning his back so not to stare at his skin too intently.

"I would like to, I don’t know if there any shops which would be good to buy present." Li Lian replied, and she looked down at her shoes. Kneeling to the floor, she began to take off her shoes and placed it aside not to dirty the floor more than it needed to be.

"Last time, we were disturb by them before we are able to go to the shop, but the place is near for us to go." Li Lian remembered the hitmen sent to kill her. It had her wonder is Akasaka had truly killed the person who hired the hitmen? For the Tokyo Yakuza, the head of all Yakuzas it almost seemed impossible.

As if on time, Li Jun Wei then said, "The police have found the body that belonged to the person who had tried to kill you that day, before your coma."

Li Lian’s attention went on him, and she turned her head to see that Li Jun Wei had changed his trouser, leaving only his torso naked with clothes on bellow his hips. His hair was falling back to his neck, leaving all skin glowing with the light that fell from above him.

It was hard for Li Lian to gather her focus and she didn’t know if Li JunWei had done this in purpose, sending her mind to a muddled state where it was hard for her to gather her thought and focus on her ears rather than her eyes.

Only when she felt Li Jun Wei’s body move did her face flipped behind. Li Jun Wei saw his wife kneeling on the floor with one shoes placed beside her to show that she was taking off her shoes. He then heard her words reacted, "H-How did the police find them?"

"It was a missing body, a nameless one found two months after your accident." Replied Li Jun Wei, "The place where the body was found was half a kilometer away from the place where you crashed. At first the body was brought to the mortuary before being buried to the local cemetery." He buttoned the clothes he wore and Li Lian took her time to process and kept her thought at the information.

"It had been a year since then by now the body buried under the soil will turn to skeleton," she turned her head and saw him had dressed in a fresh clothes, "How will we be able to identify if the body is the same as who had tried to kill me?" She asked curiously, it was impossible to bring the body in the same state. And Li Lian wondered if they only had one body to check as at that time the people who tried to kill her, she suspected they would be in a group.

"The body was find buried there too, possibly abandoned and by the estimated time of death, it is possible that the person had died at the same day when your car crashed. After searching for possible death bodies that could correspond with the specifications I gave, the particular body comes up."

"But that’s only one." added Li Lian for she sees Li Jun Wei taking long strides with his long legs toward her. Bending his knees down, he places his hand on her shoulder and another behind her knees to bring her up. Li Lian who was still trying to loosen her shoelaces felt the shoe on her left legs slide but caught by her toes and when her feet dangled, the shoe swung and fell down to the floor with a thud sound, the same sound she could hear her heart racing like.

In midst of her pounding her heart, her ears heard his voice stable as he spoke, "Yes only one. I expect to have none to surface with how clean these people work and fortunately we are able to find one."

He did have a clear word there. It was to be expected how there would be less to no body they could be able to find seeing how the person who had been trying to kill her will send another hitmen to the people he hired to kill. It was as if plan A wasn’t enough for the killer and he needed more plan to avoid everything work differently than what he had planned.

Li Jun Wei places her to the small couch before the bed and bend down to take off her socks, "I can do that myself," Li Lian said and saw him smiled at her, saying, 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"I want to do this a little longer." and with the words, he slide her socks with his hand.
