Chapter 162: Grandfather-II

"Grandpa, don't apologize. You didn't do anything to be blame for. If it wasn't for you I will never be able to meet Jun Wei." Li Lian smiled warmly. She recalled her confusion the first time she had opened her eyes to find how in her one year coma, the world have moved on where she felt she didn't exist in that one year for her heart to feel empty. A year may had passed but to her, she felt as if she had just fallen asleep to wake up the next day.

There was worry and anxiousness that she felt when she had just woke up, her mind was jumbling with how she had been in an accident and her mother's accident. And in that state, she find one person who warmly took her hand, helping her in her anxious state with a smile that she could remember clearly.

He had slowly become her pillar of life, having him near to her felt like breathing and even when he wasn't beside her, Li Lian felt encourage to do her best.

The Old Master was slightly surprised where his smile grew wider, "Do you love him, Li Rian?" The question had Li Lian to turn her face to the man who had been staring at her the whole time.

She gazed at Li Jun Wei, his eyes that were sharp seemed to be holding her entire feature making her to feel him securing her image to himself and she was true.

"Very much." Li Lian giggled, "I love him very much." she said the words for both her grandfather who had asked her the question and to Li Jun Wei who sat right beside her.

"Good." come a slightly lonely voice from the Old Master that Kei could pick up.

Li Lian then recapped what she had called her grandfather for and brought the case back before she forgot. "Grandfather, I wanted to ask you about the attacks that were targeted to me. Do you know who perhaps want to attack me? Any groups or family?"

The Old Master's face turned stern by the mention of the attacks and replied, "It would have been easier if we could pin point the mastermind behind the attacks, unfortunately, Li Lian we find no one. There were too many prospect of people who could have attacked you for now we have founded about five families and groups that would see you as a hindrance."

Li Lian hummed in understanding nodding to continue to ask, "Then what happened?"

"Those five families and groups had vanished." Li Lian rose her brows unable to understand what the Old Master meant when he continued, "We once suspected the five families and groups that I mentioned earlier and went through a hard check on every moves they make to see their corresponding attacks, however, last months Akasaka Harumi took over all those fives families and groups, killing them all for the reason that they tried to overthrow him."

"Grandpa, you don't possibly mean that all those five families and groups are from Tokyo?" asked Li Lian hurriedly, her eyes widened and her mouth gasped. This was something that impossible to Li Lian's head. The Yakuzas they held strong to the bond created by of groups and families from one generations to the other that it came without a saying of how strong those families are. If she wasn't wrong the smallest group in Tokyo had about a hundred people or so in one small branch. This was five families and groups!

"It's nothing to be surprised of, Akasaka Family are the leader of Tokyo and it wouldn't be hard for him to exterminate one group or another. But for erasing five families at one single night, that brat from Akasaka Family, he must have planned to take them down even before we got an eye on them. It was what Jun Wei said to me and now that I think about it that may be true."

She glanced at Li Jun Wei who then whisper to her, "Have you finished? Can I talk to grandfather?"

Li Lian thought of questions she had on her mind but currently she had most of her questions answered and if she does had more questions, she knew she could ask Li Jun Wei and nodded.

Li Jun Wei breathed the words "thank you" and her fingers that stopped across his lips felt his breaths caressing her fingers to flinch.

Li Jun Wei then continued to speak with the Old Master for a long time where Li Lian find herself taking a seat on the couch that was placed adjacent to the footboard slat. Her eyes moved when she find Li Jun Wei taking a stand from the chair he sat on for his back to face her. She didn't noticed it since they had always walked beside each other but now that she saw his back, she couldn't help but kept her eyes staring at the muscle that could be seen tugged when his left hand raises his phone.

His back was wide and sturdy where the black long shirt he wore created an even line to accentuate his back muscle. The hair that lined behind his neck was trimmed short where the long black haired in front of his face was combed loosely to the back.

As she kept looking at him, she felt the room was too hot for her and began to gulp feeling that she need to drink for her to walk from her seat to pour a glass of water for herself.
