209 Why did he stop? (1/2)

''Yes Father.''

He answered curtly. There was no need pretending, he knew that his father had already seen the news, if not, he would not have called so repeatedly.

He could hear his father's rapid breathing on the other end of the line. It seemed as though there was a lot he wanted to say but he did not know how to say it all out.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

''I want you to come to the ancestral home tomorrow. Do not keep me waiting.''

Liu Wei was not given the chance to respond before the call was disconnected. He looked at the screen of the phone for some time then turned around to walk into the room.

''Baby? ''

Liling who had come out of the bathroom could not find Liu Wei, she immediately called out. She was tying a towel which was long enough to reach just above her knees. Her hair was damp and her face was tinted a shade of red as a result of the hot bath. She did not find Liu Wei in the room, so she decided to go look for him downstairs.

As she approached the door, Liu Wei called from behind her.

''Wifey ''

Liling turned around and her eyes met with his. There was a smile on his lips as he walked into the room.

''Where are you going?''

He asked as he walked towards her, Liling left the door and closed the gap between them.

”I was looking for you.''

She replied warmly, a faint blush on her cheeks. Liu Wei raised his raised his hands to cup her cheeks. He heaved a sigh of relief as he looked into her eyes; he was not saying anything, so Liling covered his hands that were on her face with her palms.

''What is it?'' She chuckled lightly. Liu Wei stared into her eyes with fervent love; he felt that the world could stop so that they could remain in each other's arms, forever.

''Beautiful, so pretty.'' He said, leaning in to peck her on the lips. Liling's blush deepened as his words drifted into her ears. She could not look into his eyes anymore given how embarrassed she was.

Liu Wei chuckled and pulled her into his arms. ''Mm, smells so nice. ''

He closed his eyes and inhaled her scent. Liling hugged him back around the waist, a contented smile on her lips.

''My hair is wet, it'll wet your shirt.''

She said after a long while of silence.

''I don't care. I'll love my shirt to be soaked with your scent'' He replied charmingly as he pecked the top of her head. Liling blushed, feeling adored.

''Father sent for me.'' Liu Wei said after sometime. He felt her body stiffen for a moment. Liling wondered if it had anything to do with the news they had refused her to see.
