Chapter 216: Not known to either Elaina, Li Wei or anyone else



Chapter 216: Not known to either Elaina, Li Wei or anyone else

'But it can be that he is not that person, right? It can be someone else as well'

'No, it's him. I can never forget that voice. Never.'

The recording ended with Eliana's voice. Listening to the conversation that happened some time ago as a recording with Li Wei, and it was with someone Elaina didn't want to be, was beyond shocking for Elaina. She felt that if her throat had gone dry, and her hands started to shake.

Li Wei who noticed this change, with an expressionless face, got up from the seat and then approached Elaina. Holding her by her shoulders, he made her sit in the chair and taking her hand, he held in it, a glass of water.

Elaina didn't protest, because that's what she needed then. Gulping the water from the given glass, she kept it aside, and then a long sigh was heard from her lips, followed by the words, "How did you get this recording? Don't tell me you hacked my phone?"

"I won't beat around the bush, neither will deny anything. While I was on my way here, I wanted to know your location. So I hacked your phone because the call was unreachable. That's when I got it," Li Wei said as he folded his arms across his chest.

"Ha! Are you insane? You are telling me that you hacked my phone while driving?" Elaina said with a laugh in utter disbelief 

Li Wei chuckled and then shrugged as if saying, 'Believe it if you wanna, don't believe it if you don't wanna'. Elaina was dumbfounded but after a moment her expression changed to normal. 'Of course, the person who is saying this is Mr. Li Wei, who is not any normal person,' Elaina thought.

"Are you happy? You got to know something that you shouldn't have by utter coincidence?" Elaina said, getting up from her seat, as she started to get annoyed. But on listening to her words, Li Wei was even more irritated.

"Why? Why is this something I shouldn't know of? Till when will you continue denying that you are Yu Yan?! You know, that I know it! So till when?" Li Wei said as the aura around him turned cold, and the atmosphere in the room turned heavier. Elaina who heard Li Wei's words, could not help but divert her eyes. It made her suffocate as well as feel pressurized.

"Year ago, when the incident happened, do you have any idea, in what situation was I in?" Li Wei said as he grabbed Elaina by her shoulders, pulling her closer to him, and it was nowhere gently. Not much, but it had started to hurt, not in Elaina's shoulder, but in her chest, in her heart. As Li Wei held her by his hands, Elaina was feeling suffocated, the touch was making Elaina realize the guilt that she had hidden somewhere deep in her conscious.

Unknowingly, Li Wei's forehead rested on Elaina's shoulder, and with the weight of Li Wei's forehead, the weight of his thoughts was being felt by Elaina. "You weren't with me, and at that time I was at my worst," Li Wei mumbled, as his hands left the shoulders of Elaina, his forehead was still at the same place.

Elaina wanted to run, but her body was frozen in its place, she couldn't figure out but it was something that prevented Elaina from leaving Li Wei there. It was true that it was her first time seeing Li Wei vulnerable like this.

Li Wei sighed. His head had to start to hurt. He never knew that he could behave and speak like this with Eliana. The room was silent. No one said a thing, and the silence was becoming suffocating to both Li Wei and Eliana. He raised his head, and now his expression was not lively as they were before when Elaina and Li Wei were eating together.

How the atmosphere had taken a turn was truly surprising.

Finally, after few moments of silence, that felt like forever, Li Wei distanced himself from Elaina, he said, "I am going back to work. Get home safely," and with this, Li Wei left the room, taking with him his coat and was hung on the chair. He felt that if he had stayed there longer, he might have said something that would hurt Elaina, which would be very bad.

Like a lightning bolt, Li Wei left the restaurant, and the aura around him was truly frightening, which warned a person from afar, to erase the thoughts to approach him for some time. Getting in the car, he drove back to the Li Corporation.

As Li Wei left, Elaina felt that her legs have lost their strength, and she slumped onto the seat, that she was sitting on earlier. Holding her forehead with one hand, she stood at the same place for some time. Her mind was filled with the words that Li Wei said just now, all the words were going around in her mind, which was making her mood go worse.

Taking some time to clear her thoughts, Elaina knew what she had to do. Taking her phone out, she dialed a number, that was not any member of the Cinq, she said, "Help me get all the information about the accident that happened one year ago about me, and how it was dealt with by people, especially Li Wei."

"What happened? Why are you like this? Did something happen?" from the other side of the phone, a worried voice that belonged to Feng Jing was heard.

Feng Jing from the other side of the phone could feel that something was not right. It was very rare for Elaina to call him, especially from a nonprivate line like this. After she came back to China, Elaina took care that she didn't contact any member from the Feng Family, for reasons that Feng Jing somewhat knew and didn't.

"Nothing. Just get me the information. When are you free? I would like to meet up as well," Elaina said as she seemed in rush.

"I am not free right now. But I will meet you at 3 p.m. I will text you the address," Feng Jing said.

"Hmm," Elaina nodded, and then the call was disconnected.

On Feng Jing's side, he was sure that something had happened, and now he could only wait for them to meet up when he can ask about the matter, why Elaina wanted to know that accident a year ago, that she considered her biggest mistake.

Yes, Elaina considered the accident a year ago her biggest mistake. Even though there were several advantages that she got, but the disadvantages being fewer, still overweighed them. The accident happened one year ago, because of her carelessness, her ignorance, that she felt towards the Fengs and the others close to her. Had she been not in that place instead of Wen Mei that day, Wen Mei would have been born the fate with almost zero chances of her survival.

What Ethan, Iris, Rey, and Alex think was planned for herself, was originally planned for Wen Mei. The people who did this wanted to make Wang Yu Yan frightened by the threat to Wen Mei's existence. The accidents that were planned for Wen Mei and Li Wei's mother were on the basis of how they were connected with Wang Yu Yan and how less guarded they were. Of course, the easy target was Wen Mei who kept no security with her and was closely associated with Wang Yu Yan.

The reason why Wang Yu Yan was not targeted because she was the only heir to the Wang Family, and the only one who knew about the heirloom of the Wang Family, the thing that was responsible for this whole story to start with. 

But what happened was the opposite of it. Instead of Wen Mei, Wang Yu Yan was in the car. The fact that the incident was only meant for Wen Mei to be involved in an accident which threatened her life, and giving Wang Yu Yan a hint, that she had been discovered by the man, who killed Wang Fang and was solely responsible for Wang Family's extinction.

But when it was discovered that it was Wang Yu Yan in the car, not Wen Mei, the people who were hired, burned the car, so that Wang Yu Yan would have ended up dead, and this was the fact that Wang Yu Yan was dead, also ended the last and the only way to find the heirloom.

This outcome was not expected by Cheslav, the person who was behind this. Although he was the one who ordered it, Cheslav seemed to have overlooked the outcome of the accident, which was a big disadvantage.

Sadly, this was not known to anyone, neither Elaina nor Li Wei, or anyone else. The case of the car accident was closed quickly but some of the people who were in this were handled separately and met the favored outcome.
