Chapter 72: I Only Have One Heart

Li Lian confidently nods on her choice and pull out the gun from the inner pocket. Her heartbeat raises madly as if she is about to steal something.

Just as Li Lian was about to open the wooden shelve, her bedroom door opened with a soft 'Creak'.

Li Lian's brain worked 75 percent faster than its normal speed. The first thing that her hand reflexively did was to put the gun under her pillow and quickly act as if nothing happened.

"Li Lian?" A deep husky voice calls his name in an almost too seducing way.

Li Lian looks toward Jun Wei before putting down Shin's jacket on top of the pillow. "Yes?"

Li Jun Wei observes her expression in silence for a few moments. On the other hand, Li Lian's forehead who couldn't handle her loud beating heart starts to drenches with cold sweats.

Li Jun Wei didn't say anything and instead walk toward Li Lian before knitting his brows tightly with a dark expression.

Seeing this Li Lian gulp in worry, not knowing what to do or say.

Oh no...

Did Jun Wei sees everything before I hide it...? Or perhaps I was acting too unnatural?

Did he suspect anything...?

Li Lian scans Li Jun Wei's never-ending cold face but still couldn't fathom his inner thoughts.

"You..." Li Jun Wei trails his words and walks another step forward. With their face grew closer every second, Li Lian couldn't tear her eyes away from the beautiful view in front of her.

'Why does he looks so bright...? Did God make him along with a halo on top?'

Her eyes were nearly blinded from the bright view. As Li Jun Wei raises his hand, the somewhat alluring pale neck of Li Jun Wei, made her turn her eyes away.

'This is dangerous... He's too dangerous!! Everything he did is too seducing!!!' Li Lian shuts her eyes tightly.

Li Jun Wei's large cold palm touches her forehead gently, sending a cold shiver from the touch of his cold fingers as Li Lian opens her eyes.

"Are you sick?"

Perhaps it was because Li Jun Wei was only a few inches away from her, his voice sounded lingering through her ears.

Hearing no answers from Li Lian, Jun Wei asks once again in worry. "Li Lian?"

"Er... Mn, I'm alright!" Li Lian snaps back from her thoughts and answered with an unstable tone.

Sensing Li Lian's eyes looking away from him, Li Jun Wei furrowed his brows tighter. "Are you really alright? Should I call the doctors?"

"No!! No, no, no!! I'm fine you see!! Look!! My body is in the best condition! I can even spar with one of your bodyguards now! " Flustered, Li Lian blurts out a very questionable sentence.

"Spar?" Hearing Li Lian's words, Li Jun Wei's expression darkens. He could not possibly let go of the question without an explanation.

"Ah!-" Li Lian covers her mouth before continuing. "I-I mean, my body is in a very good condition now that I could do anything!"

"..." Li Jun Wei didn't say anything and look at her silently.

In the midst of the silence that felt like a millennial, a loud rumble resounded from her stomach. Li Lian laughs and steps away from Li Jun Wei toward the door and says. "I'm hungry... Darling, let's eat?"

"Let's go." Without any other words, Li Jun Wei nods and walks toward the door.

Saved by her own stomach, Li Lian gratefully thank her fast metabolism. She didn't expect her own stomach would be the key to save her from a pinch.

Li Lian quickly marches out to the dining room with a faint long relieved sigh. On the other hand, a step away from the door, Li Jun Wei's eyes coldly swept toward the pillow that was covered by the green jacket for a moment as if he was thinking something.

"Jun Wei?" Li Lian halts her legs after sensing no presence of Jun Wei following her.

"Mn." Jun Wei answered before closing the door and continues his steps.
