Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 648 Would you be angry...



Yue Ling was unable to move herself as she laid on the bed. She felt like someone had glued her to the bed and all she could do was stare up with unblinking eyes at the man in front of her.

With her extremely flustered face from the kiss, she blinks a few times as numerous emotions flooded her mind until she was able to regain control of herself.

He is sorry? Did he wake her up?

Of course!

She is usually a light sleeper, but she didn't even hear him come home or enter the room. Even when he sat on the bed, she still didn't hear him at all.

"W-When did you get home?"

She clears her throat with a slight stutter of her words as she moves the blanket and sits up.

Lu Tian's eyes that did not move from her followed her every move.

When he saw that she was going to sit up, he grabs the blanket and wraps it around her gently before pushing her back down onto the bed.

"I just got home. Go back to sleep. I didn't think kissing you would wake you up."

Yue Ling was back on the bed with the blanket covering her mouth down. Her eyes stares up at the man with a calm expression, but deep inside she was more dumbfounded than ever.

He said he didn't think his kiss would wake her up. Who in the world would be able to sleep through such a kiss like the one he gave her?

As she argue her response in her mind, the passionate kiss slowly creeps its way into her head. Her face that was slowing returning to normal quickly shot up red like a thermometer.

"Y-You…"

She stammers a word and yank the blanket off of her. Making a move before he could, she pulls herself together and sits up.

"You go take a shower. I cooked dinner for you, but it's cold now. I'll go heat it up for you."

Her words fell as she stood up. However, her feet had yet to touch the hard floor when she felt Lu Tian's arms wrap around her.

"T-Tian, what are you—ah!"

She lets out a yelp as he pulls her into his embrace. He held her back with one arm while the other on the back of her head.

"Let me hold you for a bit."

Yue Ling was going to push him away, but when she heard his words, she frown in confusion. Why is he doing this to her when he just got home? Did something happen while he was out?

"Tian?"

She questionably calls his name and tilt her head back to look up at him, but he doesn't answer her right away. Instead, his arm around her waist tightens more and he lower his head to rest his forehead against her.

"Thirty more seconds. Just thirty more seconds and I'll let go."

His words fell in his usual indifferent tone, but Yue Ling was able to hear the gentleness and longing behind his voice.

She decides to comply and lets him hug her. She doesn't know what is causing him to suddenly act like this, but if hugging her makes him feel better, she'll stay still for him.

However, what she did not know was that, while he was gazing at her sleeping face, he unknowingly thought about what Qin Jun had said to him.

It made him think about his wife and her past.

What if the man Choi Li Sun murdered was her deceased fiancé? Knowing how much she had loved the man, would she leave him and put herself in danger to find the man?

Even when thirty seconds had pass, Yue Ling couldn't bring herself to push him away.

In his strong arms, she also couldn't help but think to herself.

They haven't been together for long, but so many things have already happened to them. However, despite all the bad things, she is sure about one thing and that is, she wants to be with him.

Whenever she is in his arms, all the pain and worried feelings inside her disappears.

It is safe for her to say that he is her safe haven in every possible way.

After seconds turned into minutes, Lu Tian finally loosen his arm around his wife. He was reluctant but tells himself that he will be able to hold her again when they go to sleep.

"I'll shower then come down to eat."

Yue Ling was starting to feel warm in his arms, but to suddenly feel that sense of warmth disappear, she had the urge to pull him back. However, hearing his words, she reminds herself that he hasn't eaten dinner yet and must be hungry.

She also reminds herself not to be selfish. The rain outside had not calmed down since the afternoon, so he is in need of a warm shower before bed.

Her eyes stares into his dark ones for a long second, then for some reason, she couldn't help but stare at his seductive lips. A thought came to her and she struggles a hard gulp before realizing something.

"I'll have the food ready when you come down."

Her words escaped her mouth without a pause and she abruptly stood up from the bed. Without giving him another look, she sped out the bed like her life depended on it.

She doesn't dare to stay another second with him or else she will be the one shamelessly pouncing onto him.

Lu Tian watch her departing figure and a smile curls on his lip. As her man, how can he not know what she was thinking about just now.

However, not wanting to embarrass her, he shakes his head lightly and stood up from the bed too.

He grabs a set of sleepwear from the closet then makes his way to the adjoining lavatory in the bedroom.

As the shower water turns on, Yue Ling reached the kitchen within seconds. With a crimson red face from her own shameless thoughts, she strides over to the stove and turn it on to heat up the congee and soup.

She had prepared something simple because Lu Tian was coming home late, and it would be easier on the stomach before bed.

As the food quickly finished heating up, she sees that Lu Tian was not done with his shower yet. So, while she waits for him to finish, she prepares to set up the table.

Grabbing two small bowls from the cabinet, she scoops up a ladle full of the congee into one bowl then fill the other bowl with soup.

However, what she did not know was that Lu Tian had just finished his shower. He was the type of person who didn't need to spend long minutes showering.

Wearing a simple white t-shirt and gray lounge pants, he enters the kitchen, but stops in his steps.

He couldn't help but focused on her figure from behind with a soft expression written on his face.

As he gaze at her warmly, he soon arch a brow seeing that she was wearing a simple nightgown. His brows then crease together, and he questions inside, why she was wearing something so thin when it was cold outside.

Yue Ling was unaware of the man observing her and proceeds with the food. She moves the two bowls onto a tray and picks it up.

However, before she could even make another move, she was suddenly pulled into another embrace.

Her back hits her hugger's chest the same time his arms slid under her arms and wraps around her waist.

Yue Ling was caught by surprise at his sudden move, but she calms herself. Lu Tian was the kind of person who tends to throw surprises at her.

"What is it?"

Her soft voice sounds as Lu Tian lowers his head and rest his forehead on her shoulder. He inhales sharply as if to imprint her scent in his mind then his words sound in a low voice.

"Would you be angry if I said I wasn't hungry anymore?"

Yue Ling was baffled by his question. She smiles a chuckle and flicks his hand with one hand.

"Of course I would be. If my guess is correct, you must have forgotten to eat dinner while out. What will your mother think of me if she were to know that I didn't feed her precious oldest son?"

Lu Tian smiles from behind at her words. He lifts his head and place a soft kiss on the side of her head.

He moves his head away, but only to lower it until his lip was an inch away from her ear.

"Then, how about I eat you instead?"
