Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 173: She is her (1)

Ethan stood dumbfounded as he turned around only to see Li Wei standing in front of him, behind him was Mu Shufen who was standing with the same dumbfounded expression.

"What the F**k!?" Ethan cursed in his mind when he realized what was happening. 

"Aiden," the clan master of the east side shadows said, as he and the clan master of warlwolves got up to greet him. 

'N-No, it can't be happening. Tell me it's not what I think,' Ethan thought, silently praying that Li Wei was not the one he and Eliana came to meet. 

"Mr. Ethan, please meet Mr. Aiden, the clan master of the Violet Devil clan," one of them said. 

'S-Sh*t,' Ethan cursed in his heart again. 

"Mr. Ethan?" the clan master of the warlwolves said as he saw Ethan frozen in his place. 

Ethan was brought back to reality by his voice. 

"Y-Yes, I am sorry for spacing out. Good evening, Mr. Aiden," Ethan said as he brought forward his hand for a handshake. 

Li Wei was dumbfounded to see Ethan there, it was very unexpected of Ethan to be the, wait, is he the clan master of MaskedSnippers?

This question lingered in the minds of both Li Wei and Mu Shufen. But Li Wei did not put forward his questions just yet. 

He took the seat designated for him with Mu Shufen standing behind him. 

Meanwhile, his unanswered question was answered when the other two clan masters discussed with each other about the MaskedSnippers.

"Mr. Aiden, you will be surprised to know that the one in charge of the MaskedSnippers is a woman," one of them said. 

Li Wei raised an eyebrow at this, so this means Ethan was not the clan master, but then who? Curiosity started to grow within him. 

On the other hand, Ethan was panicking. He had to stop Eliana from coming here, or else everything will go wrong. 

'What to do? What- let's message her,' Ethan thought as he took out his phone to message but before he could even type a single character, the sound of the door opening came into his ears. 

PIAAAAAK~

The automatic door opened from which entered Eliana. 

The moment Eliana brought her head up, she was someone she least expected, the same reaction was for Li Wei who had turned around his head to face the door. 

As soon as their eyes met, it was as if the time had stopped. 

Ba dump~

Only the heartbeats of their respective hearts were audible to them. With every other source was blocked to their senses, only for Li Wei, Eliana, and for her, Li Wei was the only one to whom their attention was concentrated to. 

Li Wei was totally dumbfounded. What can you expect when a person who you have deemed as dead, suddenly appears in front of you after a huge gap. 

These feelings, mixed with happiness, relief, joy, disappointment, desperate, anxious, worry, confusion, anger, and vengefulness, were running in Li Wei's mind at the same time. 

Happiness, relief, and joy that his Wang Yu Yan was back; disappointment because she was late; desperate and anxiousness for what if she disappears again if he would have to spend a time without her again; worry and confusion about where she was and how she was, what had happened to her; and anger and vengefulness about her leaving him and hiding for a year, in which he had yearned for her, why did she not come back to him? Why she remained hidden from him for a year?

Even this whole description was not enough to describe the emotions Li Wei was feeling. The words are always not enough to express some feelings. 

Li Wei was in mental turmoil, he felt for the first time in his life, he had lost his ability to think. 

On the other hand, Eliana was in no position to question what was going on. She had no idea what was he doing here or more, why is she even standing here, she should have gone away the moment she saw a glimpse of his way, but her body was frozen at a single spot. 

Even if she tried to move her legs, they won't. Her body was not hers.

The pair of familiar dark eyes were looking at her with such intensity as if they could see every emotion inside her, that was threatening. 

She could not manage to look straight into those eyes, she diverted her gaze from that side of the direction. 

Clearing her throat, and returning to her cold and devil-like aura, she managed to sit in front of Li Wei.

Here, Li Wei was still in surprise, she was not the Wang Yu Yan she knew, her clothes, her aura was all different. Even though the cold aura was similar, but the aura of this Wang Yu Yan was cold but similar to a temptress as well, it was the same aura of Eliana. 

Is Eliana? 

The person who helped him, and fled? 

Ha!

She looked like Eliana, no it has to be Eliana, that means Eliana is his Wang Yu Yan but something was different. 

It was different, even her eyes. In the eyes which once had some softness in them, were lifeless, filled with evilness and coldness. That very moment, Li Wei realized that she radiated the same aura as his previous self, the thing which annoyed him and surprised him at the same time. 

"Let's start the meeting," the clan masters said. 

"We have called you here for the talk of our collaboration. We have heard a lot about your clan, Miss-"

"Eliana," Eliana said, as her gaze turned towards Li Wei, who was surprisingly looking at her. 

Yes, he was true. She was her. 

Elaina had kept her lowered until the whole meeting. It looked as if she was totally unbothered with the things happening around her. Having a cold temperament and sitting like a boss, she looked unfazed.

But only she knew the internal disturbance caused in her for the whole time. Her heart was bleeding. Beads of cold sweat could be seen on her forehead.

Whereas Li Wei, his sole attention was focused on only one person, his long lost Wang Yu Yan, or Eliana. 

Yes, she is Wang Yu Yan. Whom he was searching for last year. Everyone around him told him that she was already dead, but he kept searching for her.

What a joke!!?? He felt like laughing at himself.

There she is sitting in front of him, not even bothered by his presence.

Pain, vengeance, anger, and frustration, all sorts of emotions were evident in his eyes.

She came to the party but didn't bother to show herself to him, she helped him but did not ever say the words, that she was Wang Yu Yan. Did she hate him so much?

Not for him, but even not for Wen Mei? The Feng Family, the Wen Family, and Madam Li, she did not bother to return, Why? He wanted answers because if he did not get the answers, he felt if he would go crazy. 

He wanted to question her right away! Why? These Why, just why were these whys between them? 

At this moment, the leader of the Shadow clan was speaking something.

"What do you think, Mr. Aiden?" he asked.

"Hmm?" Li Wei, who was deep in thoughts, turned his attention towards him.

The leader of the Shadow clan, Randy, was rather displeased, but he didn't show. After all, who could offend the big boss?

"I was saying if our collaboration with the MaskedSnippers could work?" Randy repeated.

"MaskedSnippers..." Li Wei said, making eye contact with Elaina.

"So, Miss Elaina, do you think our collaboration can bring any profit?" Li Wei said icily like he was murdering her with words, he did not listen to anything in the whole meeting, or to be frank he was clueless, he was just saying anything that came to his mind. 

Elaina took a deep breath and looked up to him. She could see anger flaring up in his black eyes.

"If Mr. Aiden partners with us, we together can earn much profit." she answered with an equal icy, 'unbothered' voice.

"Hmm..." Li Wei nodded slowly, thinking.

"What profits will I get?" Li Wei asked with an unamused smile.

Elaina stared at him. He was directly targeting her.

"After all, we, Violet Devils, are already sitting at the throne of the underworld." Li Wei showed his authority.

Elaina broke into a humored smile.

"Since Mr. Aiden doesn't want friendship with us, we will accept his decision. Thank you!" with those words, she got up and walked out.

Li Wei kept staring at her departing figure. He unconsciously grabbed the glass near him and crushed it heavily.

Blood dripped out his palm. Not that he cared.

"Meeting dismissed." with that, he left too.

Everyone in the room was dumbfounded by the scene that just happened. They looked weirdly at each other, not understanding anything.

Ethan stood up silently, still in a confusion, he immediately fled from the room, rushing after Elaina.
