Unexpected Second Chance at Love

————-

Back in the living room, Yue Ling ignored the man eating vinegar and her snoring baby. She did not want to know what happened between the two.

Shaking her head at how cute they were though, she unbox a medium size box. Inside had some of her fashion designs from her starting days. They were the proof of her hard work as a nobody.

Picking up the box, she walks to the guest room.

Opening the door, she froze in her steps. The bed that once was in the guest room had been replaced with a smaller one and pushed to the wall. Right by the floor to ceiling window were two desks facing each other, one white and one black. Like yin and yang...

Walking in, she set the box on the white desks. On her face was an indescribable expression. When did she change the idea of turning this room into a study room? She had planned to use it as storage or have Lu Tian sleep in here!

”What are you doing?” a deep voice sounded from behind her.

Yue Ling turned around and met Lu Tianʼs indifferent gaze. It was as if the man had never ate jars full of vinegar. She tilt her head and crease her brows, ”This—why are there two desks in here?”

After calming his childish mind, Lu Tian re-enter the penthouse. He saw her enter the guest-room and could already guess what to expect. Earlier, before Liu Shan dropped Inu off, he had called two of his bodyguards to come over and move his work desk at his old penthouse here. Then he moved her desk from her closet room in here too.

Hearing her ask the question, he shrug his shoulder while he remain indifferent.

”One is yours and the other is mine.”

He walks towards her, his eyes never leaving her beautiful eyes. When he stood a foot away from her, his lips curl up.

”We should work hard together.”

ʼWork hard my head!! You shameless man!ʼ

Yue Ling wanted to punch Lu Tian for his words of trickery. Turn her head, she looks at the two desk and frown.

”Wouldnʼt I disturb your quietness then? My career is different from yours.”

Hearing her words, Lu Tian felt like Cupid had shot another arrow to his heart. All the people heʼs met didnʼt care whether he could do his work in peace or not, but she did.

Taking a step, he stands side by side with her. Lu Tian turn his head and looks down at the woman he wants to spend everyday with. Reaching his hand out, he held her chin and turn her head to look at him. Once their eyes met, he move his hand to caress her cheek.

”You are never a disturbance to my world.”

”.....”

Touched to the core by his romantic words, Yue Ling did not know what to say. This man was shameless, but at the same time, he knew his romantic words very well!

Feeling the palm of his hand on her cheek, she turn slightly to face him. Then she close her eyes and couldnʼt help but sigh. It was like she wants to absorb every ounce of warmth in his hand to her.

Lifting her hand, she place it on the back of his strong and larger hand.

”Tian... Why are you so good to me?”

Lu Tian frown at Yue Lingʼs question, but then his eyes softened. With his free hand, he held her back and pull her closer to him. His arm embracing her with all his warmth.

”Because you complete me.”

Hearing his cheesy line again, Yue Ling met his dark pupils. This man who has a cold and aloof expression all the time actually knows how to say things like this? He had said those words, but looked indifferent.

She couldnʼt help but blush shyly and wrap her arms around his waist. She does not dare to show Lu Tian her expression at this moment. Who knows what heʼll do!

Inhaling his masculine and manly scent, she felt like an old pervert, but what else was she supposed to smell? They were hugging and he smelt good.

Remembering his spoken words, she felt as if someone had lifted a huge weight off her shoulders. Although they havenʼt got to know each other well or talked about their relationship, she was thankful to him. His eyes and words were enough for her to know he was serious.

Who would have thought that their unknowingly one night stand would turn into this.

Lu Tian embrace Yue Ling in his arms. He swore inside, no matter what comes their way, he will never let go of her hand. He will keep her by his side forever, because she is his and he is hers.

Always and forever...

The both of them remain in each otherʼs embrace as the sound of their steady breathing and heart beat trail into each otherʼs ears.

Outside the room door, Inu wanted to bite Lu Tian. His eyes are sending daggers at the evil peasant, but seeing his favorite peasantʼs expression, he couldnʼt bring himself to bite Lu Tian...

He doesnʼt want to make his mommy sad...

Turning around, he goes back in the direction of his cozy bed.

ʼStupid peasant, for now, this noble king will let you win this round. Be thankful that I love my mommy the most! Hmmf!ʼ
