Unexpected Second Chance at Love

As Yue Ling and Lu Tian enjoyed their breakfast together, it soon came to an end. Lu Tian didn’t forget to help his wife clean up before leaving for work.

He puts the last cleaned and dried plate inside the kitchen cabinet then looks at his wife, who was wiping the table. Being able to spend time with her in their own home is the best feeling ever. He is truly blessed to have met her out of all the people in the world.

Thinking this, he reminds himself to not only call Doctor Dong, but also Uncle Zhi. He wanted to know how the ring is coming along as he wants to marry Yue Ling right away, but only after the ring is finished.

He slowly approach his wife from behind and slides his arms between her arms to hold her waist.

"I’m leaving for work now."

Yue Ling had just finished wiping down the dining table. When she heard his words, she breaks out from his grasp and set the cleaning towel in the sink.

"Wait. I have something for you."

She spoke as she speed walks out of the kitchen like it was something important. Left in the kitchen, Lu Tian arch a brow as his curiosity can’t help but grow and he leisurely follows after her.

Stepping out from the kitchen, Yue Ling walks over to the table she had placed the bag. She grabs it and turns around to go back to Lu Tian.

"Ah!"

She lets out a cry in surprise when she almost bump into the man’s broad chest. Her head tilt back to look up at him and she can see the curious look in his eyes. Her entire being softens and she hands the bag to Lu Tian.

"I bought this for you when I went shopping with your mother, aunt and cousin."

Seeing that he looked down at the bag in her hand but did not reach out for it, Yue Ling heaves a long sigh. She turns back to the table and set the bag down. Reaching her hand inside, she takes out a silky black item and turns back to face the man.

"It’s not much, but I hope you like it."

Lu Tian stares at his wife then down to the gift in her hand. It was a simple black tie with paisley details all over. He arch a brow and looks back at her.

"You bought this for me?"

Seeing his calm reaction with a small raised eyebrow, Yue Ling’s smiles a chuckle. She holds the tie out to him and nod her head.

"Mm. I know you prefer black, but I thought this design would look good on you."

Lu Tian lower his head to the tie, then he lifts his hand. However, he doesn’t reach for the tie. Instead, he undoes the simple black tie he had on and removes.

"Help me put it on?"

Yue Ling was baffled by his words, but she sounds another chuckle and place the paisley tie around his neck. Fixing the tie for him, her entire being softens more than ever.

It was like they were really a married couple and she was helping her husband fix his tie for work.

As she proceeds to fix his tie into place, Lu Tian’s head stared ahead, but his eyes focused down on his wife. No matter how many times he sees her, whether it is near or far, he is always falling more and more in love with her. It like each day his love for her only knows how to grow.

He decides that from now on, he will ask her to fix his tie for him. That way when he does to work, he can bring her touch with him.

"Done."

Yue Ling interrupts his thoughts with a tone full of proudness. The tips of her fingers trace over the tie and she held a small smile. Her decision to buy this tie did not go to waste as it match Lu Tian perfectly.

Being brought out from his thoughts, Lu Tian lowers his head and like every other day before leaving for work, he place a gentle kiss on her forehead. His hand gently caress her cheek and his voice sounds.

"I’m going to work now. Don’t miss me too much."

Yue Ling’s turned heavy at his last sentence. She wanted to refute him but decides to nod her head and doesn’t stop him from leaving.

She walked Lu Tian to the door and watches as he gets into his car and drives away from their house. Until his car was longer in view, did she return inside.

However, when she closed the door, she couldn’t help but sigh to herself.

Being a housewife isn’t so bad, but at the same time, she misses work. She miss the busy days that kept her mind occupied with things to do instead of staying home and trying to find something to do.

As the sun began to rise high in the sky, Yue Ling cleaned up the house then prepared lunch to surprise Lu Tian at work. However, by the time she finished, she realized that she had cooked more than what she was supposed to.

The amount of food that laid in front of her can fit an entire party of guests.

"Aiya. What should I do now?"

She mumbles to herself as she stares flabbergasted at the food then looks to Inu like the Samoyed can help her. He stares back at her then to the table. Without making a sound, he walks away from the kitchen.

Yue Ling stares blankly at the little guy. She swore if Inu could speak human language, he would be calling her an idiot for making so much food for one person.

Shaking her head, she looks back down at the food. An idea quickly came to her mind. Since there is still time until Lu Tian takes his lunch, she will drop off some of the food to the other hard-working people in her life.

As she packs the food into containers, she then place each one in bags to divide them for the people she is going to give the lunch to.

After loading them into her white BMW x5m, she puts on her black wool coat and gets into the car with Inu in the passenger seat.
