Empress Of The Lost Kingdom Chapter 187
Advertisement
Tang Wei Sheng sat with an expressionless face in the private room of the high end restaurant in the blue diamonds hotel.
It was the same room where he took professor Han Guang and his team for a meal on their first meeting.
It was the same room where he embraced Li Juan who was broke into tears because of his imperious comments.
It was the same room where Ning Jing was introduced to the research team as Tang Wei Sheng's fiance.
Even though he knew that Li Juan who had an aloof personality, he was worried that the news of his engagement will hurt her, but to his surprise and horror,
Li Juan who sat on the edge of the table, did not even raise her head and take a look at her so- called boyfriend who got engaged to another woman.
But today, instead of Li Juan someone else was sitting opposite to him.
A man whose details that has been purposefully hidden from the data servers in C country are now celebrated by every media outlets in the country.
The business man of the year, the CEO of multinational conglomerate and more than anything else, his powerful family background.
He hailed from a similar corporate background as Tang Wei Sheng and yet, Li Juan chose to spend the rest of her life with Lee Tae Yang rather than the man she loved for almost ten years,
He was her first love, the man who kissed her. The man who proposed her....yet they were forced to break up.
Tang Wei Sheng was still not able to recover from the shock of seeing Li Juan kissing someone other than him.
It was devastating for him to even think about someone else gets to experience the sweetness of her lips and the tenderness and warmth of her body...
Unfortunately due to his superior olfactory genes, Tang Wei Sheng could pick up Li Juan's intoxicating floral scent from the man who was sitting across the table.
The one who was supposed to deflower that precious Lily was him, but due to the greed of his wolf he lost the chance to prove worthy of her.
"Why do you want to see me?" Tang Wei Sheng asked without hiding the disdain on his face.
"There are few things I want to tell you,"
Tang Wei Sheng huffed and adjusted his sitting posture.
"Li Juan is worried about you," Lee Tae Yang informed with a steely voice.
The tightly pressed corners of Tang Wei Sheng's lips curled into condescending sneer,
"I thought Li Juan moved on with her life, but I've never expected that she will send her message through her so-called boyfriend,"
"I am here on my own," Lee Tae Yang let out a sigh,
"Actually Li Juan is moved on with her life. Both of us are living together now, soon or later we will be getting married. She is worried that you may not able to attend our wedding if you continues to live like this,"

"What do you mean?"
"It is not late for you to seek medical help," He suggested in a soft voice.
There was momentary trepidation in Tang Wei Sheng's face and he immediately hid it behind his arrogant facade,
"Did Li Juan tell you all these? Does she consider me as a lunatic?" He raised his voice. There were only few people knew about his illness and Tang Wei Sheng never excepted that Li Juan reveal his secret to someone else.
"I used to be neurologist, though I don't have in depth knowledge in psychiatry...I can guess the possible reasons which would've triggered you to develop of a split personality," Lee Tae Yang appeared calm as he continued with his words.
"A childhood trauma or abuse can lead to-"
"What if it is something which is far beyond your medical knowledge? Something which cannot be explained by science?" Tang Wei Sheng retaliated,
"Are you talking about the folklore of the Wolf God which is transmitted across your people? The blood thirsty wolf which resides in the soul of the males born in the Wei bloodline?" Lee Tae Yang asked indifferently,
Though Tang Wei Sheng didn't opened his mouth to argue, the startlement was wide visible on his handsome face.
"I've heard about the story of wolves residing in the soul. The good and bad wolf...you become the wolf which you decided to feed. Wei Sheng, If we start to believe in the age old- legends of our clans and ancestors, none of us wouldn't be treated as human beings,"
"You know nothing," Tang Wei Sheng argued back with fierce look,
"I belong to Guan family,"
Lee Tae Yang stopped for a moment and smiled, "If I believed the legends circulated in my family, I would have addressed myself as a dragon and Li Juan who was born in Bai bloodline would have been a fairy,"
Tang Wei Sheng silently listened without any protest.
"I don't say that these folk lore and fairy tales are completely non sense, there might be some truth in that.. The truth which cannot be explained by science. I don't know whether you grew up listening to the stories of bloody battles that has been won by your ancestors. But the environment which you grew up, it may or may not be affected your sub conscious mind," Lee Tae Yang concluded,
"Are you implying that I am lunatic who hallucinates and creates a weirdo who is obsessed over Li Juan?" Tang Wei Sheng couldn't control his boiling anger,
"Wei Sheng, try to listen to me first," Lee Tae Yang raised his voice in annoyance,
"You are not the only who is having these kind of psychotic experiences. The family back ground, the people with whom we grew up...everything affects our behavior and character from an early age. I am not sure what happened with you, but because of you, Li Juan had to go through many adversities,"

Tang Wei Sheng had nothing to say against or refute Lee Tae Yang's accusations. Because his brazen actions Li Juan was tagged as gold digger and whore by her classmates. Even if he falls down at her feet and begs guilty, nothing can replace the amount of hatred and loathe she had to face in high school.
"I am not saying about the incident that happened in high school," Lee Tae Yang leaned closer as he spoke,
"If you are aware of the accidents which has almost killed Li Juan, you might have already figured out that there is something odd about it,"
Tang Wei Sheng raised his gaze and stared directly at Lee Tae Yang's mysterious black obsidian orbs,
"They were well planned murder attempts,"
"NOOOOO!!!" Tang Wei Sheng shouted in denial.
"You can refuse to believe it..but every accident Li Juan that has been gone through..they were murder attempts which are designed as accidents,"
"But who would do that? She didn't even had anyone to call as enemies or relatives. Who would do something heinous to kill her?" Tang Wei Sheng refuted back.
"When I first met her she was sitting on the corridor waiting for someone to share an umbrella. She used to sell toys under the blazing sun to make money. Why would someone kill a girl living in utter poverty?"
He was on the verge of exploding,
"It doesn't make any senses. She had no one to call her own and why would-,"
"She had you," Lee Tae Yang interrupted Tang Wei Sheng's words,
"When everyone hated and ostracized her...you were the one who stood with her. You loved her and she...she also," He stopped for a moment and took a deep breath,
"The first accident which nearly killed Li Juan happened on the day you were moving abroad for studies. Her second accident happened on the selection day of her student exchange program to a school which is situated in the same locality where you lived. She was trying to reach out for you...she wanted to help you to get over your mental illness. But someone purposefully meddled in between. Someone who doesn't want you to become dependent on her,"
Lee Tae Yang's words were like huge bolts of lightnings to Tang Wei Sheng, charring his handsome countenance.
"You are only aware of those two accidents, but Wei Sheng, there were more attempts to harm her. I met Li Juan in the ICU of first hospital in S city. At that time she was on coma and for unknown reasons her oxygen supply was kept low... it was really low that.. she was almost suffocated to death.
In the beginning I ignored it is as medical mistake, but when I heard more about her past life in Jing city and her accidents, I was left with some doubts. I went on searching about her accidents and found the something absurd.
On the day Li Juan fell from the school building, her blood strains contained an high level of hallucinogenic drugs. Most of them are prescribed by her physicians itself... but what was weird about it? All of her medicines were on a high dose."
"Are you saying that someone actually bribed her physician and made him prescribe high dose medicine?" Tang Wei Sheng asked in doubt,
Lee Tae Yang nodded and continued, "Whomever planned to kill Li Juan, tried to slowly end her life in order to avoid the suspicions,"
Tang Wei Sheng who was about to retort, was cut off by Lee Tae Yang,
"After her second accident, there weren't any attacks against Li Juan. But when both of yo again come into contact, they started it again. On the day when you left her alone in the Xi city and flew back to home, somebody tried to harm her again. There were no news about Li Juan for a week and during that time the news of your engagement was all over in the media,"
"But that engagement was fake," Tang Wei Sheng tried to explain,
"It was me who shot Li Juan," Lee Tae Yang's words had an air of aloofness, "I faked her death to track down who was behind all these attacks and I found it. "Red dragon," you must have heard that name,"
"Red dragon!" Tang Wei Sheng's eyes widened in horror. Red Dragon was the deadliest group of hit men in the entire continent. Drugs and gold smuggling, illegal arms trade..they were the infamous for all the illegal activities. Even the police couldn't do anything against them.
To organize such a group to kill a commoner like Li Juan, it made no sense.
"It didn't end there...In Tu valley, when Li Juan was surrounded by all of us...she was attacked again. The wound on her head was not caused by slipping down and hitting her head...The scan reports of her skull clearly showed that it was a penetrative brain injury. Some sharp object was used to hit her,"
The people who wants to kill Li Juan...they were always with her...watching her every movements,
"Just think about it, Tang Wei Sheng..to organize car accidents, to bribe doctors, to organize the deadliest hit men and wipe every single evidences...all these require power and money," Lee Tae Yang stopped and asked directly,
"Who holds such an authoritative power, Wei Sheng?"
