Chapter 859 - Used To Think Like That Woman (2/2)
”Wake me up when we're there.”
Xu Long rolled his eyes at the man. Lin Hui clearly stated that no one was going to die on his watch, but here is, going to sleep.
He shakes his head, but realizing something, he chuckles sarcastically and scratches his head in a split second.
”Uh... Where exactly are we going?”
Lin Hui rolled his eyes in annoyance before closing them.
”To our bosses' house.”
As the two men continued on the road, neither was aware of the white car following behind them.
Inside the car, Lu Tian's eyes were heavy in the driver's seat. His expression did not look too happy. He had seen everything that happened, including when Xu Long swerved his car.
He couldn't help but think back on life. Did he make a wrong decision by letting his assistant drive his car?
”Tian, are you okay?”
Yue Ling's voice sounds from the passenger seat. She was well aware of why he was making such a face. However, not wanting him to kill their subordinates, she thinks of a distraction.
An idea pops up in her head. She rubs her arms and pretends to shiver.
”Oh my. Why is it so cold in here?”
Her words entered his ears, and he snapped out of his daze. He reaches for the heater button but sees that it is already turned on.
He looked at his wife, and it met with a massive smile on her face. His ears turned red, and he averted her eyes out of his embarrassment.
”Please don't look at me like that.”
Yue Ling was relieved that her plan to distract him worked. However, seeing his flustered ears, she couldn't help but tease him.
She placed her elbow on the center console and held her chin.
”Look at you like what?”
Lu Tian gives her a side glance. Seeing she was still smiling, he sighed inside.
His wife is too much for his heart.
He looks in the mirrors, and after confirming there were no cars in his blindside, he pulls the car to the side of the road then puts it in part. He massages his forehead and sighs again.
Yue Ling was confused as to why he suddenly stopped the car. She looks around before returning her eyes to him.
”Why did you stop-”
Before she could finish her sentence, her words were sealed off by Lu Tian's lips.
He could smell the sweet fragrance from her, and he deepened the kiss. He wasn't trying to win a battle but reeked closeness and the sharing of her breath.
It was as if he was finally able to breathe again after being apart for many years.
Heat rose in Yue Ling's cheeks, but she didn't push him away. Her eyes gradually close, and she returns the kiss.
After a timeless and passionate moment, Lu Tian reluctantly pulls away from her.
He gazes into her bluish-green eyes with nothing but love for her.
Her expression after their kiss was alluring, yet so lovely that he felt tempted to kiss her again. However, he refrains from doing so and gently caress her cheek.
”Don't look at me with that face, or else I won't be able to stop myself.”
Yue Ling's face flushed at his intimate words. She knows him too well and knows that he is a man of words.
She awkwardly looks away from his gaze and tries to change the mood.
”I... I don't know what you mean. I always look at you this way.”
Lu Tian chuckled and held her chin. He turns her head to look at him and gives her a small peck on the lips.
”And it's this way that you always tempt me.”
He returns to his seat and drives the car, leaving a dumbfounded Yue Ling.
She stares at him with millions of questions in her mind. Was this really the right time to kiss?
Despite her thoughts running wild, she decides to keep quiet since he is driving again.
Lu Tian kept his eyes on the road but was completely satisfied inside. However, he notices her shyness and decides to help her this time.
”Were you able to help Liu Ye?”
He had been meaning to ask her earlier, but the incident with Chief Ren and Madam Qin occurred.
Yue Ling was still in shame by their kiss. However, his question made her calm down a little.
The scene of Liu Ye and Jianan happily smiling in her office comes to mind, and she smiles.
Her head faced the road ahead, but her eyes landed on the sky above in the distance.
”I hope I was able to help him.”
