Chapter 127: Something To Happen

The party went fairly smooth. With Li Jun Wei beside her, Li Lian didn't have anyone came bothering her with their words but often time she met their gaze and knew the deep meaning hidden beneath their eyes. When a man passed by them holding a tray of long alcohol glasses, Li Lian took one and spoke. "Thank you." The man bowed at her polite words, seeming a little surprised but didn't showed it boldly over his face.

Li Jun Wei noticed the glass she held and before she placed the rim of the glass to her lips she felt his hand stopping her. "I don't think you should drink now."

"Why?" She inclined her head and smiled. "Don't worry this is only a little."

"I can't have you forget what happen again if you drink." He said his tone reminding her of what happened when she was drunk.

"That was different." Feeling accused, she puffed her cheeks. "And Jun Wei, you should tell me what happened last time after," she trailed not knowing what to add on the end of her words. "After that time. Did I do something wrong?"

"You didn't and nothing really happened that night." As much as he want something happened that night, nothing taken place as she fell asleep soon after she cried. He wasn't a wild man who would take advantage of a sleeping woman even if she was his wife. The first time he want with her was something they both could remember not only one of them.

"Really?" Then all This time he was only teasing her?

"Really." His Finger traced the line of her ears, tucking a few strands of hair behind. "I did want something to happen but you fell asleep before anything did happen." His finger stopped at her neck sending shivers which stopped when a voice came over their left side.

"Good evening, Mr. Li." A man greeted with a smile. His eyes fell over to Li Jun Wei and stopped at Li Lian. "Good evening." The woman beside the man greeted with a pleasant smile.

"Good evening, Mr. Sun." Li Jun Wei replied to greeting and Li Lian followed his suit with a smile. The previous expression he gave etched on her mind and it wasn't something she could easily brush off. Even without a mirror, she could feel how her cheek had gotten redder.

"Thank you very much for your help last time, Mr. Li especially with the contract. I have a hard time dissolving the previous matter if it wasn't for your help."

"It's nothing to be thankful of." Li Jun Wei replied. "I only did what I could help."

"And the young lady over here is?" Mrs. Sun pointed softly.

"My wife." He took her hand and warmly wrapped her waist with his arm. "It's a pleasure to meet you my name is Li Li Lian."

"Is that so?" Mrs. Sun didn't hold back at her surprise, covering her mouth with her hand she looked apologetic after giving her surprise aloud. "It's a pleasure to meet you too Mrs. Li. My name is Sun Wan and this is my wife, Sun Guan." As Mr. Sun introduced politely, Mrs. Sun took the opportunity to speak again to Li Lian. "I've never seen anyone as stunning as you Mrs. Li the two of you together make a very beautiful scene." The woman praised heartily. "That's true, around next week our house is holding a party to congratulate my husband's success of his work, would you mind spare your time to attend our house? It isn't that far and I promised it wouldn't take a lot of time."

Li Lian thought it was a good time for her to help Li Jun Wei as she is his wife. But what would he think? She looked up and met his gaze, receiving a smile she knew what his smile meant. "Thank you for your in invitation, Mrs. Sun if I have time i will surely attend the party."

"That's great!" The woman looked excited. She didn't know what made Mrs. Sun to became that excited but if she should pick her guess it must have been due to the fact that she was Li Jun Wei's wife. As Li Family was powerful, having someone attend their party was akin to having Li Jun Wei himself.

While Li Lian was getting used to the formal conversation of the people from the highest socialites group. She excuse herself to the washroom and went to the place which was restricted from other guests. Fixing a few strands of her hair in front of the mirror, she went out of the washroom only to see Wei Tsui Lan standing not too far from the place. Was he waiting for someone? Not that she care as it wasn't her business.

Walking outside, she passed Wei Tsui Lan without meeting his eyes. Seeing Li Lian he took her wrist, speaking up. "Wait for a moment, Mrs. Li." But a breath away after he finished his words, his view tilted and when he realized he had collapsed at the floor while his hand was pushed behind by Li Lian. It took Li Lian a while to see that the man under her was Wei Tsui Lan who was standing on the hall she passed. Due to her reflex, she had pushed her down thinking that he was an enemy.

"I'm sorry." Li Lian said, mulling own her head why did she did that in reflex and let go of his hand. "But please keep in mind not to suddenly appear behind a woman's back, Mr. Wei. I almost thought you were someone bad."

Wei Tsui Lan gathered himself from the floor, he looked at her blankly for a long moment.

"What are you looking at?" She asked and find him bursting into a chuckle. Did the impact from earlier made him lose his mind? Li Lian questioned herself.

Seeing Li Lian had furrowed her brows, he calmed his laughter. "Oh no, I'm not laughing at you Mrs. Li. That was a very powerful move, did you perhaps learn Judo?"
