《My Husband Is The Emperor: I Woke Up With A Husband》Chapter 43 - 41: Kidnapping-1
Advertisement
Li Lian walk out of her school cheerfully together with her other two friends. One of her friends pull a small brochure and passionately stare at it.
Her friend on the right side looks at the other one who's holding the brochure, she lifts her eyebrows, and asks her, " What? You still haven't chosen which crepe you want? "
The girl shook her head endlessly and sighs, " Ugh, strawberry sound good but the ham and cheese one looks delicious too."
Li Lian laughs, pulls the brochure and took a look while scratching her chin. Li Lian, " What about buying three different crepes and share it among us? "
Hearing Li Lian's wise words, her friend nods in agreement. " Okay! That's sounds good"
While the three girls walk out of the school, from behind a group of men followed them like an unnoticeable shadow.
One of the men took his phone and called the leader, " Master, the target has finally moved, however, she is with her friend...Should we wait until she is alone or-"
Karasuma Kuroo grins viciously, " No need, proceed it. Let those friends of her watch the moment when the girl is kidnapped."
As soon as Karasuma Kuroo ordered, the men nod to each other, proceeding to execute the order.
Meanwhile, Li Lian was immersed in her talks that she didn't notice the looming shadow behind her. As they were about to enter a silent quiet street, suddenly from behind, a hand appeared behind her and swiftly grabbed her shoulder.
From the corner of her eyes, Li Lian notices the man's left hand with a handkerchief to muffle her. Without a second thought, Li Lian pushes her elbow to the back, attacking the man's stomach.
Taking advantage of the man who'd lower his guard, Li Lian gave a clean hit right on his ribs. The man grunts, feeling embarrassed after taking a hit from a frail-looking young girl, his eyes glare grew intimidating.

Li Lian notices the man's deathly glare and furry, feeling a real blood-l.u.s.t for the first time, cold sweat drenches her palm. She quickly raises her hand to guard herself from the incoming attack from the man, she remembered her two friends who were cowering in fear behind her.
Certainly, it was normal for a young girl in high school to be shaking in fear. She couldn't blame her friends for running away at any moment. Looking at her friends Li Lian noticed the man's tattoo from and understood at once, that the man's target was no one other than her. She couldn't possibly involve the two innocent young girls and shouted at them in a hurry, " Go! Now run! If you could go to my house and search for Kei-Nii-Chan! "
The two girls who had been to her house countless times nodded, although their body was still shaking in fear and hesitating whether to leave Li Lian alone. After some thought, the two quickly ran towards Li Lian's house searching for help.
Even as the two girls escape, the man stood there unmoving, she thought, ' His target really is me! '
The man watches Li Lian's firm expression and smirks as if he had just found some amusing toy, " You're done, little lady? "
Li Lian raises her hand and kept her guard steady, ignoring the man's useless provocations. In a flash, the man took a step forward launching his quick-attacks. Each punch he threw at her sounded heavy, Li Lian couldn't do anything other than evading his attacks.
Li Lian narrowed her eyes, at the quick-punches he threw and understood how dangerous it is if one of those punches hit her. Li Lian expression darkens, ' This is bad! His attack keep getting even faster! '

The man knew Li Lian had reached her limit and threw a feint attack to the right. At the moment when Li Lian dodges his right attack, the man threw another punch to her left, aiming for her stomach.
Taken by surprise, Li Lian jumped back quickly before the punch could reach her stomach. It was a tense fight and a small mistake wouldn't end up with only a small bruise.
The man's eyes widened, after a few moments, he clapped his hand. " Wow! Young lady, you're pretty agile, huh? Well, I want to continue our fight, but unfortunately, time's up. "
Li Lian was about to organize her breath, but before she could, the man continued his attack, this time his speed felt three times faster than before.
Li Lian couldn't dodge his attack and took a few damages, whatever she does, she couldn't get close to him much less attack him.
Suddenly someone shriek behind them, a young boy who stumbles upon their fight scene cowers in fear and flop to the ground, crying.
The man quickly stops his attack on Li Lian and instead marches forward toward the young boy. His hand launches another punch toward the boy as if to shut his loud cries. Li Lian pace forward spread her arm and envelope it to the young boy protecting him from the incoming attack.
The man was already too swallowed in his fight and anger and didn't stop his attack. The next thing when he realize it the girl's head was already covered with blood.
