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

Li Lian continued to walk, the silence impending and it seemed that the only one unbothered by the silence was Li Jun Wei. The male nurse was also rattled by the silence and he spoke, "May I ask if you two come to find a corpse?" His pace was slow so they would be able to talk side-by-side.

"It is similar like that." replied Li Lian, voicing her words as the nurse talked to her with his eyes on her despite subjecting the two of them. Li Jun Wei had the tension that kept people away from her and like others, it made the nurse hard to talk with him or start a conversation. "Does people rarely come here?" Li Lian asked and the man nod his head.

"Oh not really, it’s according to the time at night people avoid to come," the male nurse replied, "Not to the point of bustling. People often come here and by often I mean, in a sad occasions. But since our mortuary is for unidentifcated bodies, only a few people comes by." Li Lian nodded, thinking that Li Jun Wei’s words were right as it is. "Are you two a marriage couple, miss?" asked the man and this time not Li Lian who replied but Li Jun Wei.

Pulling Li Lian’s finger to him, he replied, "Yes."

The male nurse turned his head and laughed, "I am correct. I just see that between you two there are this feeling of closeness like a marriage couple who had passed their tenth anniversary!"

Li Jun Wei smiled while looking at Li Lian, a certain poking smile that Li Lian noticed. "Tenth anniversary." He hummed, "Not too bad." Li Lian didn’t know what he was judging by not bad.

That had Li Lian to think and ask him, "When is our anniversary? The date of our marriage." she added and Li Jun Wei looked at her in a thoughtful look. Noticing it she turned her eyes at him, she pulled her smile, "I’m curious."

"What date do you want?" She looked at him with her eyes slightly wide and his lips moved to say, "It may be our marriage but at that date you were yet to meet me, I was yet to be in your heart. More than marriage, without any of our feelings is replied, I think it would only be a paper we’ve wrote with our name."

To find Li Jun Wei had thought it the way he did, Li Lian felt happy but also

disappointed in herself for not being able to find Li Jun Wei sooner. If instead of He Chang Min she had met him, he wouldn’t care about her past and support her. He would have stayed by her side the moment her family disinherited her and he wouldn’t choose Xie Hue Lin apart from her. He would be there by her side anywhere at any time she needed just like now. However ifs are what she wished, the past cannot be changed.

"What are you thinking?" He asked her, although Li Lian’s eyes was at him, he know her mind was somewhere else. He could decipher to every gaze she had and to who, it was directed at.

"I just thought I should have met you. If I do, maybe everything is different now." She replied to have Li Jun Wei walked closer to her and slipped his hand to her waist. Taking it closer, he used his other hand to lift her chin and kissed her lips lightly. Surprised by his quick moved, Li Lian’s eyes widened but she didn’t move back or take her steps away from him and let her waist to be pulled.

"That’s probably the ever best compliment I’ve ever heard for the last decade." He smiled, in the close proximities his head met her forehead and gently snuggled at it for a second before he pulled away. "What had been done is done. Also if you didn’t meet He Chang Min perhaps you would not meet him. I should thank him when the time comes." The thank he said was far from using appreciation words but a tone of evil thoughts.

"You’re right." responded Li Lian when the nurse finally stopped in front of the door.

Once they arrived, the nursed knocked on the door thrice before he turned his head back and his eyes met Li Lian who looked back at him before clearing her throat. "We’ve arrived." announced the nurse. "Please enter." He said.

With Li Jun Wei matching her pace, it made Li Lian to arrived at the door at the same time and he opened the door for her to enter. Inside was a place where there was a metallic bed, many cup boards and a large blackboard. Li Lian didn’t want to think what room this was but she spoke, "Is this the place where autopsy are performed?"

Li Jun Wei looked at the plate written near the door and replied, "It is." and in a hurry, Li Lian slowed her past to hide behind Li Jun Wei.

As if to make herself comfortable, she spoke, "I am not really good with corpse."

Li Jun Wei turned his face to make sure she was alright behind of him, "There are no corpse here."

"But they’ve been here." replied Li Lian. When she thought of how there were corpses that had been brought to the place and dissect there, a sense of shivering chill fall on her spine. As she inched back, she felt him pulling her hand and brought her in front of him.

She saw his gentle smile at her. "Just hold my hand if you feel uncomfortable." he offered and Li Lian did what he told her to. She gave him a nod when her body flinched at the sound of a door rattling.

She looked at the door placed on the back side of the room. The wooden door rattled for a few time, making Li Lian to hold his hand tighter. "What’s that?" she asked, gulping down her nervousness. Li Lian doesn’t believe in ghost nor did she believe in them. While Shun and Shin afraid of ghost, she was afraid of zombie and the thought that it could be corpse that went back to live, scared the living out of her.
