Chapter 223 - I Wont Give You Up Easily (2/2)

”Qin Yao,” He called out her name and waited until their gaze met. ”Since you are already my wife, I won't give you up easily.”

Hearing his words, Li Qin Yao felt a mixture of feelings attacking her all at once. His words made her heart grew warmer. Feeling her eyes and nose grew sour, Li Qin Yao covered her face with her palm.

Zhang Yu Han let out a chuckle as he had thought that his wife was hiding her shy expression under her palm. He continued his massage for a while longer and soon noticed his wife slow and steady breathing.

Seeing that his wife had fallen asleep, Zhang Yu Han removed her legs from his thɨġh and cautiously picked her up to the bed.

…

When Li Qin Yao woke up from her sleep, the room was almost pitch black. She stretched up her body and touched the side of the bed only to find that it was cold and her husband was not at her side.

That was not right. Wasn't she laying on the sofa with her husband? How did she get to bed?

She got off the bed and stepped out cautiously on the carpeted ground to find her husband. Stepping out of the bedroom, Li Qin Yao found that the living room area was dimly lighted.

From where she stood, Li Qin Yao could see Zhang Yu Han's silhouette from behind. He was sitting on the sofa as if focusing on something. Upon closer look, Li Qin Yao saw that he was studying a few papers in his hand.

Li Qin Yao approached him quietly and wrapped her arms around his neck from behind. Then, she gave a peck on his cheek.

”Why are you awake?” Zhang Yu Han turned to her and smiled.

”You're not surprised?”

Zhang Yu Han let out a chuckle. ”I noticed your presence the moment you stepped out of the room.”

Li Qin Yao glanced at the paper in his hand and asked, ”Why are you still working? And you still have the nerve to call me a workaholic.”

”Xiao Ye came earlier to hand me these documents. I couldn't sleep, then I thought I should look at these documents for a while,” Zhang Yu Han said. He removed her hand from his neck and patted the empty seat beside him.

Li Qin Yao went around the sofa and instead of sitting beside him, Li Qin Yao stood and grabbed both his hands. ”It's already this late. Stop working and come back to bed.”

Li Qin Yao was dumbfounded when she saw that familiar look on his face.

That strange, yet adorable look on his face, was he not asking her to kiss her right now?

It was then that she was reminded of that situation in his office.

Back then, didn't she told him that the reason she rarely initiated to kiss him was due to his height? Now that he was sitting and she was standing, of course, Zhang Yu Han would take this chance to demand a kiss from her.

A laugh escaped her lips when she understood his intention.

Maintaining their eye contact, she put one knee on the sofa and inched closer to put her hands on his shoulder. Seeing his eyes getting darker with excitement as seconds passed by, Li Qin Yao finally leaned in to kiss him on the lips.
