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

’Anything wrong, sister?’ asked Li Xiao Chen after noticing the shift in Li Lian’s expression which was fairly noticeable across her face.

’No,’ he heard Li Lian chuckled, ’how come he is already this handsome in high school?’

Back to the present, Li Xiao Chen, who was staring at his older brother smiled wide with a wink, "Sister said you are handsome, you know I think sister have a very high demand when it come to face. Heaven must have blessed you brother to have a handsome face so you could capture sister’s heart."

"Even without this face, there are ways I could have her heart," Li Jun Wei said, the confident he had made Li Xiao Chen to laugh his heart out. Then Li Xiao Chen shifted the conversation, "I heard about Mo Ran, sister said she would help her to find a lawyer, is it your lawyer?"

"A different one," explained Li Jun Wei, by now the pair of brother walked to the living room. "Professionals came in handy on their field, I requested a divorce lawyer and found a solution to make sure Jen Qiling and the entire Jen Family will never be able to put their finger on Wei Mo Ran and her son."

A wicked smile appeared on Li Jun Wei’s lips that almost seemed as if he had taken a life by his own hands to Li Xiao Chen’s eyes. Li Xiao Chen thought Jen Qiling deserved it. He could tell that this indirectly happened because he had bluffed to the man, claiming that Wei Mo Ran was in a relationship with someone else far better than him which triggered the man’s anger as Jen Qiling was someone with a high pride but no morale.

Li Xiao Chen felt bad for creating the mess which must have surprised the great life out of Wei Mo Ran but seeing that now Jen Qiling will never be able to harm her or Sian, it sounded like a much better news. "I know you are kind brother! They say you are only kind to your close set of family but not outsider, I know that you think of others too."

Li Jun Wei noticed the proud look on Li Xiao Chen’s face and his hand stopped to ruffle his hair. "They are not that wrong," Li Xiao Chen heard his older brother’s words as his head was ruffled. His eyes looked up questioning his words, "I did this because Li Lian requested me, but I also helped Mo Ran for her son and everything she had done for the company. Also, in particular I hate Jen Qiling’s guts and his company."

"I also hate his guts," agreed Li Xiao Chen. "That’s right, I heard you fired your informant, is that alright? We still need him for informations."

Li Jun Wei tilted his chin, his eyes looking away from his brother with a knowing smile, "I found a new person to take over his place."

Next morning, Li Lian woke up with a yawn escaping from her lips as soon as she woke up. She sat on her bed and her head quickly searched for the person who slept beside her to see how it was empty. But there was sign that the pillow in the left side had been used.

Li Lian leaned forward to Li Jun Wei’s side of bed. Rolling to then sigh. Last night she had tried many ways to keep herself awake but it was hard for her who had went through a tiring day not to sleep. She also thought to wake up earlier but by the time she woke up, Li Jun Wei had left the house.

It felt empty to Li Lian. She could speak to him with her phone but there was difference when one speak through phone and in contact with the person themself.

After breakfast, Li Lian met with Wei Mo Ran. Being told to enter the house, the woman was still doubting the fact that Li Lian was married to Li Jun Wei. It wasn’t that the woman couldn’t trust Li Lian but she find the news shocking to believe that it was a reality.

"Mommy, can you put me down?" asked Sian who was carried on Wei Mo Ran’s hand.

"If you promise not to run around the house or create any problem," Wei Mo Ran said for her adorable son to bob his head up and down. When his feet reached the floor, he didn’t run but went to the places he was curious of. When he noticed a heel and leg, Sian lifted his head to meet Li Lian’s smile and the boy smiled back at her.

The adorable smile had Li Lian smitten. She bend her knees, crouching in front of the boy, "Good morning Sian, you will be staying here with this uncle," Li Lian pointed her hand to Li Xiao Chen who still had to rest at home until the cast could be taken off from his leg,

"Good morning to you too pretty strong sister," Sian cocked his head to the side, his chubby cheeks were tempting Li Lian to pinch. The little boy then turn to look at Li Xiao Chen, "Uncle, will you play the cars again with me?"

"Wait before that I need to clear something," Li Xiao Chen crouched next to Li Lian, in front of little Sian and his brows tensely furrowed, "Do you know that I am younger than this sister here? You shouldn’t call me uncle but big brother. Now, call me big brother."

"Uncle!" Sian was quick to betray Li Xiao Chen’s expectation and the boy explained, "Sister is sister and uncle is uncle."

"Why am I an uncle? I’m still young. Once again call be big brother," Li Xiao Chen urged the boy.

"But uncle looks older than sister," Sian explained, his brows were also pulled in confusion.

Li Lian, covered her lips, bursting to a laugh before patting Li Xiao Chen’s shoulders. "You can’t hide age like a woman could, Xiao Chen. Try it again next time when you have the chance."

"There is no chance in age, sister!" Li Xiao Chen reminded before picking Sian from the ground and taught him all over again of how he was young.

"Shall we go now?" asked Li Lian after patting her hands as she stood next to Wei Mo Ran. "Xiao Chen will take good care of Sian, you don’t have to worry about him."

"Yes," Wei Mo Ran agreed and she turned to wave her hand to her son before they left the house.

Once Wei Mo Ran and Li Lian left, Li Xiao Chen who was carrying Sian on his arm saw Violet and their eyes met. Feeling his heart thudding, Li Xiao Chen was about to step toward the woman and asked her of the words she said before when she had left the place to drive the car.

"Are you alright uncle?" asked Sian whose face were pressed on Li Xiao Chen’s chest.

"Uh, yeah, no problem," Li Xiao Chen answered after tearing his eyes from the car and sighed.

"Lying is bad uncle. I can hear your heart thumping thumping!" Sian giggled revealing Li Xiao Chen’s heart rate. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"It’s not! And call me big brother not uncle," Li Xiao Chen who had turned his back from the entrance took one more peek before turning his face away. Since that day, he can’t get out Violet’s smirk nor her smile which make him feel almost crazy.
