Chapter 648 Would you be angry... (1/2)

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.
