Chapter 277 Planned it all (2/2)
”.....”
Staring at his wife like she was idiot, Lu Tian sighed inside. Sometimes, his wife is smart, but why is it that the her at this moment is so slow.... He sighed again and gesture with his hand to signal the waiters to come clean the table.
”I prepared all of this for you. The roses and candles, I planned it all.”
”.....”
Yue Ling's eyes widen in shock and surprise mixed together. Even she was struck speechless and couldn't make a sound hearing Lu Tian's words. Unlike her, Lu Tian calmly reach for the napkin and clean his hand with it. He didn't have to look at his wife because he already knew what kind of expression she had on and it made him feel satisfy.
The waiters came back to their table and started cleaning. The young waiter steals a glance at Lu Tian and waited for a signal and just at the same time, Lu Tian nod his head. Seeing this, he quickly removes the dishes and heads toward the kitchen again with the other two waiters.
Seeing the small glance, Yue Ling narrow her eyes in suspicion and leans in towards Lu Tian, ”Why did you plan all this?”
She looks around again and frown, ”It's not even my birthday or a special occassion...”
Lu Tian shrug his shoulder at her words, ”I don't need any kind of occasion to prepare dinners like this for you.”
Looking at him, Yue Ling scoff a chuckle. She rest her chin on her palm and smiles to him, ”I never knew you were such a romantic man.”
”For you, I can be anything.”
”.....”
Lu Tian spoke his words with a stern expression making Yue Ling loss for words again. She stare at the straight face man and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How can this man say something so sweet with such a cold expression...
Staring at him, she thought about the decoration. The red roses and candles inside the restaurant to the fact that it was only the two of them. She turn her head away from him and looks to each bundle of roses.
”Tian, this.... I mean—”
”Mr. Lu.”
Before she could finish her words, the young waiter interrupted her as he walks up to their table. He stops by Lu Tian's side and set a nicely wrapped nod on the table. He slightly bow and walks away.
Now looking back at the cold man, Yue Ling furrow her brows slightly. She examined the box and tilt her head curiously.
”What is that?”
Seeing the expression on her face, Lu Tian faintly smile. He scoot the chair back and stood up. Walking over to her, he knelt down beside her and place the gift in front of her.
”This is a gift for you. I want to congratulate you before anyone else.”
”....”
Not know what to say or do, Yue Ling looks at Lu Tian then to the gift in front of her. She knows that the man would not leave unless she opens it, so doing as he wish, she touch the gift.
”Congratulate? What is inside?”
Lu Tian chuckle and shook his head, ”You won't know if you don't open it.”
”.....”
Yue Ling pout her lip and understanding that he won't tell her, she decides to open it. She undid the ribbon, then unwraps the gift.
Until the wrapper was fully unwrapped, she sees a black suede box in the shape of a square. The space between her brow crease into three lines and she slowly opens the box.
Seeing the inside, her eyes waiver and she froze in place. She quickly looks at Lu Tian and then to the gift inside.
”D-Didn't.... This... how?”
Everything inside her head was in a chaotic mess. She continuously looks at Lu Tian then to the gift. Her expression held confusion and shock mix with surprise.
Lu Tian smiles at her and he finally stood up. He takes the gift from her and set it down on the table. Doing so, he removes the item inside the gift revealing a thin chain with a small diamond pendant. He walks behind his wife and his arms move over her and back behind her. As he puts the item on her, he spoke his words.
”I know you might get mad when you hear what I have to say, but I did a little research. I know who you are and I want you to know that I will stand on your side.” His fingers work their magic behind her neck, ”Balance, is my congratulation gift to you in your success.”
He finishes putting the necklace on his wife and he takes a step back to her side. He knelt down beside her again and takes her hand into his. His dark pupils met her greenish blue eyes and he faintly smile.
”You are the balance of my life and heart.”
