220 Su Qianweis Confession (1/2)

Su Qainwei reached her house in the middle of the night. She didn't use the front entrance instead she entered from the backdoor. It was just a habit that she had picked like looking over her shoulder as she walked.

Being a Lei did that to you since she had landed in this life she had always feared, every moment was spent thinking of the inevitable, her death.

Even as delusional as she was she knew that she was no competition against any other heir, they were vicious and killing machines from crime families. If it wasn't for Yu Wang change of heart she would have been dead.

She knew she was going to be put out to rest once the game proceeded. Her days were numbered but she wanted to live those numbered in bliss. With Li Yuan.

It was selfish of her but people with limited life often turned out to be selfish...He could be with anyone after she was put to rest but just give her the happiness, she desired till she is alive, even he was lying it.

Was it too much to ask? It wasn't...

She entered her room and looked at the mirror. She officially looked like a phoenix on fire. all messed.

She was tired but more restless, she had to tell Li Yuan. He was looking for Lei Xinyi and if she was out there, it was inevitable, he will discover her whereabouts.

She wanted to give him space but he had already enough for the last three months. If she didn't confess now and Li Yuan finds 'her'... and then the problem with Yu Wang.

She rushed to her bathroom and took a long bath, she cleaned and cleared herself. She was going to confess to him and if things accelerated, Su Qianwei smiled bashfully and blushed.

Li Yuan...finally.

She walked in her walk-in closet and went to the excluded corner from all the other clothes. A black lace knee-length dress was pridefully draped on a mannequin.

She had bought this overly expensive dress for this very day. She smiled at it shyly and held it with shaking hands.

She selected crimson red lacy lingerie. She wore it with red stilettos. she wore the ruby necklace he had gifted her on her last Birthday and then...the engagement ring. The engagement ring that she wore on his name.

When Li Yuan had said it meant nothing, she knew in her heart that it meant everything to her.

She held it tenderly in her hands. It was a ruby that was pridefully etched on it, he got it because she loved rubies.

She was young when he gave it to her so it didn't fit in her ring-finger anymore, she could have adjusted it but it was given by him. She would never alter its constitution and take his touch away.

Li Yuan had told her not to wear it after they had dissolved the engagement. She didn't, but that day when Lei Xinyi was selecting the wedding dress she couldn't help it.

She kept it back on the vanity table, she will get a new ring tonight, one that will fit her forever. She did her make-up and drove to his Mansion.

It was late at night but she couldn't stay away from him even if it was for a second more...

She gave her identification and unlike other days, they allowed her inside, she was told to wait on the threshold.

it was cold but she was feeling warm inside, she smiled and bit her lip, Did he...Did he move on...? Was it why he was ready to meet her?

Li Yuan came out about 15 minutes later, still impeccably dressed as usual. His hairs were ruffled and his features looked tired.

He noticed her over the top dressing but didn't comment. She mostly did that but today she looked rather sensual...

”Su Qainwei!” His voice echoed his surprise more clearer then the frown etched on his forehead, ”Why are you here in the middle of the night? Is everything alright?”

Su Qainwei licked her lip to smoothen her speech hesitancy but then shook her head, her smile not leaving her face, ”No, nothing's wrong.” She looked at the ground needing enough space to be able to get her next words out.

”Instead... I have come to make a confession.” she looked up expecting all kind of emotions but what she saw was a satisfied smile on his face and the frown was history by now.
