Chapter 748 Every second of the day (1/2)

Yue Ling sat inside the bathtub filled with warm water. She had told Lu Tian to scoot over but with the tub being a little too small for the both of them. She could only sit between his legs.

The warm water brush against her skin and she sighed at how relaxing it felt.

All the nervous feelings she had before were discarded and forgetting that Lu Tian was also in the tub, she leans back to rest.

However, before she could fully lean back, something brush against the side of her waist causing her to quiver.

Her entire being flinched as she stiffens like a statue. How could she forget that she was not taking a bath alone?

Lu Tian's large palm with small callouses gently caresses past her waist. He held the front of her stomach and with a light push, he moves her closer to him.

As their bare skin touch one another, he lowers his head and leans down to kiss her shoulder before resting his forehead on it.

”It's been a while since we get to enjoy a nice and quiet bath like this.”

He sighs after his words and closes his eyes.

Despite it only been a week, due to their busy work schedule and the wedding preparations, they haven't been able to enjoy the quality time together. Even he feels he doesn't get to see much.

Thinking this way, the space between his eyebrows crease together and he hugs her tighter.

”I really miss you.”

Yue Ling was surprised by his sudden hug, but she relaxed when she heard his words. She was just about to agree with him when she was dumbfounded by his last sentence.

She scoffs a chuckle and lightly adjust her body to the side. As her bluish-green eyes stare straight into the dark pupils of his eyes, she smiles with an arched brow.

”How can you miss me when we see each other every day?”

They've indeed been preoccupied with work, but they still get to see each other. In the morning before work and at night after work. Some days they even see each other in the afternoon to have lunch.

Lu Tian lifts his head to look down at her. Seeing her bright and amused face, the cold aura that he wears in the day was completely ripped off as she is the only person, he will allow to see this soft and doting side of him.

However, thinking about her question, he sighs and shook his head sadly.

”It's not enough.”

He wraps his arms around her and pulls her closer to his chest.

”I want to see you every second of the day.”

He held the side of her head against his chest and rest his chin on top of her head.

”Why do you have to work? With the money I make, I can provide for both of us.”

Ever since their relationship started, he came to understand that his wife loves to work. However, as much as he understands this side of her, he can't help but worry for her.

It hasn't been long since she recovered from the loss of their unborn child. Yet, she is busying herself every day.

He stares at the blank space in front of him and uses one hand to caress the side of her arm.

”You can just stay at home and be my housewife. Whatever you want to buy, I won't stop you.”

Yue Ling was touched by his words and she understood how much he worries about her. She looks up at him but seeing a perplexed look on his face, an idea flashed in her mind.

She raises one hand and using her index finger, she taps it on his chest. A small smile curls on her face as she pushes him more back against the tub.

”Why do YOU have to work?”

She answers him with his own question but emphasized the word 'you'. Her other hand raises to rest on his bare chest that was damped with water droplets.

Lu Tian arched an eyebrow in amusement at her. It wasn't her words that made him curious. It was how she said it and the smile on her face.
