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

Once again Li Lian went to visit the room she had never been to. She didn’t know how many rooms are in the house but she knows how less she knew each room. Until today, she didn’t know there was a theater room.

She was still recalling the new secret she found which was surprising when she felt Li Jun Wei’s hand catching hers. When Li Lian turned her face, a smile appeared on his face that had her heart pick a race inside her chest.

"I didn’t notice that," Li Jun Wei said and Li Lian raised her brow before her eyes followed where he commented about. Looking down, she noticed it was the bite marks he made. "I though I bite you only twice but to know it is three," he drawled.

"You are surprised?" she tried to fill his words when Li Jun Wei shook his head while chuckling.

"I am praising myself a few hours ago for biting you once again," his fingers trailed on her neck which had her to stop walking to shudder. "When do you think it would fade?"

"The bite marks?" Li Jun Wei didn’t gave her a reaction but she knew he mean yes. "I don’t know," she drawled. "Last time it didn’t fade after a whole week."

"You can’t tell me to apologize for that. If you remember you were the one who started it," saying the words, he pulled her hand to walk ten steps before stopping at one room. Li Lian saw Li Jun Wei pushing the door open, and her eyes first note of how dark the room was.

When Li Jun Wei entered he light the lamp, turning it on for orange light to come. Despite the light had turn on, the room was still dark to her eyes. She noticed the six seat placed in the room three at the front and another three behind. Li Jun Wei walked down, taking the tape to turn it on.

"You can take a seat as you like," Li Jun Wei offered her. "How is the theater?"

"I never see to a home theater before. It’s cooler than I thought. Did Xiao Chen worked on it alone?" Li Lian’s eyes stared at the six seats, wondering where she should take and chose the nearest seat to the wall on the front side.

"I helped him with it," Li Lian watched him, seeing how he pushed the record tape to the black box. She then turn her head to the glass mirror built on the wall. On her reflection, she saw the bruise color of her skin turning darker and her hand went to cover it. Thinking how covering wouldn’t do anything, she bring her hands down and settled it on her thighs.

"Does this house have any other room like this? I didn’t know we gave a theater room," Li Lian spoke to fill the silence between them.

"I will tell Bo Shiao to bring you the floor plan of the house. It will make you easier to know which room use for what and enjoy your time here," Li Jun Wei replied and he seemed to be focus to Li Lian’s eyes. Seeing how he looked as if he would answer any of her question, she smiled with a hint of mischief.

"When is your Birthday?" asked Li Lian, her question was said fast.

In return, Li Jun Wei also replied her question quickly, "twenty eight of December. When is your birthday?"

"March twenty eight," replied Li Lian. She couldn’t guess that Li Jun Wei would instead asked her questions. "We have the same date I thought you know my birthday?"

"I would like to hear it from your own lips. I knew it with ways that I have but learning it from you is better," Li Jun Wei pushed another button. The record tape use wasn’t the same one usually used in modern time as Xie Hue Lin seemed to be keeping the tape in the old version.

"When is Xiao Chen’s birthday?" asked Li Lian who tried to pick another pace.

Readily, Li Jun Wei replied, "Fourteen February, Saint Valentine."

"When did you buy this house?" she questioned.

"Around four years ago, fifteen June to be exact." As he keep replying her question, Li Lian because amazed by his memory capability. He didn’t think to say and speak which surprised her.

"How many maids in the house?" Li Lian’s question instead grew faster.

"Ten, excluding male." Li Jun Wei’s lips quirked at her endless question and he replied to whatever he needed, heeding to answer her questions with all honesty and precision.

Was he being honest or was he really replying to her question, leaving everything bare?Li Lian then asked, "Your card password?"

"Sevens eight six four two eight seven one. If you are wondering what is the passwords of my phone, it is our date of marriage, Sixteen July. My save case passwords are-"

"No need, I understand. I don’t need that. Was it your true password number?" asked Li Lian and he easily nodded.

"There is not anything I should hide from my wife is it?" He smiled, his hand removed from the player as he tape was successfully played.

"What about our first time meeting place?" Li Lian’s question was as fast as the others but Li Jun Wei knew she was trying to trip her by the bunch of questions and he stopped to smile at her.

"Getting clever and cunning are we?" Li Jun Wei made his way from the player, sitting beside her when Li Lian saw him pushing the armrest to fold it back as if he was removing the borderline they have between them. He then moved closer to her face. "I can tell you I guess, I know ways to twist our promise. I wouldn’t like to do that but it seems you were not able to remember anything which is why you asked me this now, right?"

"I think I am getting closer to remembering you, just a little bit more," Li Lian pushed her back to the wall, feeling it pressed and her tongue peeked out to ran over her lips in act to moisten it. "You say you can tell me," she requested, waiting for his words and watched how Li Jun Wei seemed to enjoy the situation they were in.

"Yes, I could but I need something in exchange. It would be unfair for me to twist the promise I have kept chaste to be twisted so you can have answer do you?" Li Jun Wei raised his fingers, to slide from her wrist slowly to her forearm.

"How is it unfair, I don’t remember you but I think I could if you give me a clearer situation for me to grab ahold of the faint memory I have," she persuaded. What does Li Jun Wei want to have in exchange anyway?

"It is unfair, you will get something to benefit you but not me. An exchange should be done for the two people in question to be satisfied with what they have," Li Jun Wei answered and his smile pulled higher. "It would try to make you do something in exchange which you would enjoy to."

Li Lian saw how his hand that was moving on her wrist pulling and pushing, caressing her skin. Lo Jun Wei really do have his way with words. He could persuade one person without loosing anything in exchange but rather benefit him. There was no place for Li Lian to deny the point he made. "What is it that you want in exchange?" she asked him curious.

"I can ask the favor later, oh it’s starting," Li Jun Wei answered before his face turn to the large secret which was once black to begin lighting up.

"Will you really tell me where we met for the first time? The precise location?" Li Lian somewhat couldn’t believe it would be this easy. With one request, Li Jun Wei had agreed. Although she had to do something in exchange but she doubted it would make her to lose anything either.

"Have I ever lied to you?" Li Jun Wei asked back, playing with his hand that had touched hers earlier. "Don’t worry, I promise you I will tell you. No lies."

"I don’t doubt you. I just didn’t think you would agree easily," she replied back.

"It’s not easily. Remember, you will have to do a favor for me in exchange," receiving Li Lian’s curious look Li Jun Wei added, "I will not ask you to do impossible things. Let’s watch."

Li Lian was still curious what Li Jun Wei would request her and what will be his reply. With the hint she wondered if she could remember him? In the first place why and how could she forget about him if they made promise? Li Lian had tried to trace all her memories in the school festival only to fail. The curiosity was brimming over her fingertips, wanting to know what took place when on their first meeting.
