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

Jen Qiling held the cigarette between his fingers, his fingers moved to the trash bin beside him as he watch the end of the cigarette turn to ashes. Waiting in the place with the cigarette had him think in silence and when he recalled the words Li Xiao Chen said to him the other day, his tongue clicked. Letting the cigarette fall on the ground, his feet stomped on the cigarette to extinguish the flame.

At the same time, the door whirled opened beside him and he turned his eyes to see Wei Mo Ran had walked out of the building with a woman beside her which he remembered to be the same singer he had seen in Million Entertainment. He could tell that day the singer had some hiccup with He Chang Min’s fiancée, Xie Hue Lin. As in fact the studio where Xie Hue Lin had to use never had an issue for her to change studio into a small one.

Wei Mo Ran stared at him while at the same intense gaze, Jen Qiling looked down at her. His eyes then moved at Li Lian with a frowning, "We will have a personal talk alone." he stated at Li Lian. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"She will be here." Wei Mo Ran took one step closer to Li Lian, "We don’t need to hide anywhere, what’s the problem?"

Jen Qiling gritted his jaw, anger flitted at his eyes that Li Lian noticed and her eyes narrowed subtly at the man’s behavior. He stood poise, with eyes brimming with pride while looking at Wei Mo Ran with a certain hatred that Li Lian couldn’t help but ask why would the man hate Wei Mo Ran? She didn’t pry to their problem and she was yet to here the history between them but it was clear that Wei Mo Ran wasn’t the one who should have been hated.

"You look great." Jen Qiling remarked with a smile that wasn’t out of a greeting but spite.

"Well I am but you’re not here to greet me aren’t you? State your business, I don’t think you would like to be watch here with everyone around." Wei Mo Ran the huffed and added, "Considering your pride that is."

Jen Qiling clenched his fist, "If you want me to be straight then let’s get this all now. Who is your new boyfriend?" His question had Li Lian to hitch in startle, she turn her eyes subtly at Wei Mo Ran who was smiling.

"You must have heard it from Xiao Chen before." Wei Mo Ran stated for Li Lian to be startled again. "He is Xiao Chen’s friend, a good man who helped me a lot in term emotions and mental support." Looking up at Jen Qiling’s angered face, Wei Mo Ran thought that Li Xiao Chen’s lies was worth it. She wasn’t one to enjoy revenging but when it was done, it was satisfying to see him brimming with anger.

It made her remember the day when she heard from her own mother-in-law on how their expecting a child from Jen Qiling’s mistress who is now his wife. They were rejoicing on her heartbreak, happy that they finally receive the wife they want their son to have. While it was painful for her to forget it by time, she had forgot the pain and slowly the memory eases from her mind. Yet seeing Jen Qiling now bring her all the memories she didn’t want.

Fortunately yesterday, Li Xiao Chen was quick to come to her and report the talk her had earlier with Jen Qiling, notifying her that he had lied to Jen Qiling on how she had a new lover. Now she could use his lie to her heart content.

"Sian also like him a lot, they often played together." At each of her word, Jen Qiling’s face twisted in anger that worsened by time. "Which remind me now after seeing your face that I have to meet him soon."

"Who is he? What is his name?" Jen Qiling pressed his tone as he questioned her.

"You don’t have to know him-" but Jen Qiling interjected.

"I should because Sian is also my son." Wei Mo Ran frowned at this, "I need to know who is this man who would soon become his father figure whether he is suitable to be my son’s father and if he could ever make Sian happier than I did."

Wei Mo Ran’s smile faltered from her lips only anger rose in her eyes she didn’t hide, "Sian is never your son and anyone is better than you to be his father. Better than a man who cheats on his own wife, who until now still couldn’t let the past to go, believing they are not at fault. As long as that man doesn’t repeat your mistake even a goat is far better father for Sian than you. You don’t have to be the father you’ve never been."

Li Lian at last filled the pieces, understanding what was going on and whose side she would be on now. Jen Qiling had the audacity to come and confront Wei Mo Ran of her new boyfriend regardless the fact they have been divorced and the man cheated on her first.

Jen Qiling wasn’t a man who talked much, hearing the words from Wei Mo Ran that a goat was better than him, his anger raised his hand, "You!"

"Would you stop?" Violet interfered by standing before Wei Mo Ran, he hand swiftly stopped a few centimeters away before it was about to chop Jen Qiling’s wrist.

Wei Mo Ran took a right step beside Violet, "Sian is never in your custody Mr. Jen. No matter who I end up with, he is my son and I will make him now not to ever repeat his father’s mistake. Excuse us." Wei Mo Ran took Li Lian’s hand and they began to walk. Violet glared at Jen Qiling who went to chase for Wei Mo Ran which was stopped in time by her.

Right at the moment Jen Qiling made a hasty move, a black car stopped in time in front of Li Lian and Wei Mo Ran. One look at the car, Li Lian knew who was inside the car. The window on the back seat rolled down and Li Lian’s eyes stopped to meet Li Jun Wei’s black ones. He first look at her and his eyes softened with a smile then turn to look at Wei Mo Ran before his eyes falling cold and void at Jen Qiling.

Like Li Xiao Chen, Li Jun Wei didn’t like the man either. He didn’t have much to say about the man’s position as He Chang Min’s subordinate but the matter was his deposition and his issues with Wei Mo Ran. Not that it was his place to step in as it wasn’t his problem but he didn’t see anything loyal from the man.

Jen Qiling stopped when he saw Li Jun Wei stopped his car. As if someone had slapped him awake, the man stood there in disbelief to see who was standing there. Most people had a hard time to meet Li Jun Wei and as one who work in the company, he knows how hard it was to meet the man who was said and proved to be the highest amongst all, the modern Emperor in industrial.

"Are you done?" At his question, Jen Qiling could have taken the words to be said at him but instead it was said to Li Lian who was also rattled to see him here and a smile appeared on her face.

Her head gave a nod and seeing it, Li Jun Wei raised his hand to tell the chauffeur to open the other side of the car to open and his eyes moved back at Li Lian, "Come in." His words were sang softly, like a melody that could melt anyone’s heart including Li Lian herself. Her feet went to take one step before it stopped and she looked at Wei Mo Ran.

As if knowing what she was thinking, she heard Li Jun Wei spoke, "Mo Ran, you should go home with Violet. Staying alone would be dangerous," and his eyes look at Jen Qiling who without fear pushed Violet away without holding any of his power back which Violet was thankful for so she could pushed the man’s back with the same intensity.

Jen Qiling clicked his tongue when he was pushed back by Violet but he still had words to say before Wei Mo Ran could go, "Mr. Li this is a problem between us and we are still in the middle of our conversation." His tone was rigid with anger and Li Jun Wei could see how the man had been clenching his fist as if wanting to move his hand powerfully across Wei Mo Ran’s face like he did before.

Without looking at the loose scumbag, Li Jun Wei’s eyes moved at Wei Mo Ran, "Do you still have anything to say?"

It was clear that there were differences in tone Li Jun Wei used as he talked. He first talk with Li Lian gently and with Wei Mo Ran in an arm’s length but to Jen Qiling a cold tone that could put one to feel the pressure. Jen Qiling was in anger that he could talk back at Li Jun Wei but if he wasn’t, he would have been no different than the rest of people who would turn stiff in front of him especially when they know the power and authority Li Jun Wei had in him.
