Chapter 120: Arrival

Li Xiao Chen's eyes stared at his brother's inner shirt in a somewhat bewildered face. After some pause, he rubbed his chin to ask. "Ge- Ge, your inner shirt is odd. Wasn't it supposed to be a normal black shirt? Why did you take the last minute to change it into a turtle neck?"

Now that he noticed it, for the past few days, Li Jun Wei had been using turtleneck, although turtleneck is something that he often used, it was rare for his brother to wear it under a formal attire. Li Jun Wei broke his gaze from the residence's door and glance at the over-perceiving little brother before pulling down his neck which was filled with bite marks and kiss mark that was made by his adorable little wife.

"Ahem!" Li Xiao Chen cleared his throat loudly giving a surprise to the other servants beside them before slapping his own forehead. He shouldn't have asked, the little Koi complained, he shouldn't have, he really shouldn't have!

When someone said that curiosity killed the cat, Li Xiao Chen wanted to add. Before the cat was killed by curiosity, the Koi Fish that was supposed to be the cat's prey had died first!

Quenching a curiosity made him surprised but he didn't regret it as it seemed that his brother's and sister in law's relationship had progressed to a further step. Inchin to the side toward his brother, the Koi asked. "Ge- Ge, so that day... you two had gone that far?" His eyes read the expression on his brother with all its might to receive a glare from his elder brother.

"Do you want to know." His words were cold and sharp, bringing blizzard from Antarctica to the Koi who could never learn his previous mistakes. It wasn't a question that he gave but a warning so his little brother to learn when to stop his mouth.

"No! No! No! That was a slip of a tongue!" The Koi slapped his mouth as a reprimanding to himself.

"What are you two talking about?" Li Lian's airy voice came to gain both of their attention. Strolling down the stairs in a languid movement, she gazed back sweetly in a blushed cheeks to Li Jun Wei's eyes. Dressed as a fairy, she was a goddess to him. Her shoulders were slightly out and it only gave her more of a seducing air. Although he hasn't yet come beside him, he could smell the lavender scent wafting to his nose. It was the scent that always lingered with the girl.

He reached out his hand, taking her hand to help her walk down the stairs. "You look beautiful tonight." His words cracked a sweet smile on her face. "Am I not beautiful every day?" she asked jokingly but Li Jun Wei never praised her half-heartedly.

Placing his hand on his waist, he pulled her close to his side. "You're beautiful every time I saw you. It's making me wonder how should I praise anymore since the words in the vocabulary couldn't do you any justice."

Li Lian timidly covered her cheeks that had turned bright red. "You're overpraising me."

"I'm not. Every word that I say is true and I'm sure many would agree with me," he replied but the Koi Fish suddenly cleared his throat loudly to receive a sharp glare from his brother. Surprised, the little koi choked on his own cough harshly.

"Let's go." Li Jun Wei opened the door for her for Li Lian to enter the car in advance. Followed by him and the Koi Fish as their driver for the night.

The Koi Fish wanted to praise his sister in law with her enchanting look, but he didn't want to butt into their dreamy air and decided to seal his lips in a thin line and faded to the back scene.

Li Lian bit her lower lips slightly nervous. Today is the day when she would finally meet Li Jun Wei's grandparents or now she should call as grandparents in law. It would be a blatant lie if she wouldn't be nervous about making a mistake that could lead to Li Jun Wei's grandparents' dislike toward her.

A warm hand covered her fidgeting fingers, taking away her attention from her reverie. "Are you nervous?"

"I am, a little bit. " speaking it her heart state aloud made her even more nervous than before and Li Jun Wei could sense her edgy expression.

"I'm with you" hearing his securing words, her heartbeats and nervousness slowed down. "Thank you." she whispered, under the scarce light, he could see her eyes slightly glazy. He caught her hand and intertwined the fingers in a lock until they finally arrived at the hotel where the party was held.

Inside the hotel, people swarmed in and out of the hotel bringing more people inside as the time tick by. Even though Li Jun Wei's cousin was only adopted, it never changed the fact that he was adopted in Li Family. Many people came to wish him good wishes, some to genuinely wish Li Ye Hua's coming of age, and the other that wanted to apple-polish the Li Family.

She trailed her eyes away, stopping when she saw a young man entering the building before them with his elegant way that sort of remind her of Li Jun Wei. The young man walked to the hall and people's eyes stuck on him as though they were painting a picture out of the man to his head, burning the handsome cool image on their head. His expression was cold and unapproachable but nevertheless it was able to have the women in halls to quickly have their eyes lovingly gazing at him.

"Isn't that... CEO Wang?" One of the women squealed.

Her friend gazed at the man and nodded. "That's right!!! How fortunate for us to meet him here!"
