Chapter 247 - He Belonged to Her (1/2)

It did not take a long time to dry Zhang Yu Han's hair. Once she was done with the task, Li Qin Yao rested her hand on his shoulder to gaze into his eyes. The two of them spent a few minutes just looking into each other's eyes, having an unspoken conversation.

Li Qin Yao was the first to broke out of their silence. She leaned forward to kiss him on the cheek and spoke, ”I should run a hot bath for you.” She lifted her hand and rested it on his cheek. ”It wouldn't be good if you caught a fever again.”

Before Zhang Yu Han could say a word, his wife has already walked away leaving him and the towel on his hair in the living room. Seeing her retreating figure heading towards the bathroom, Zhang Yu Han let out a loud sigh.

He was very close to spring forward to kiss her and perhaps do something more exciting. But then, she had run away even before he could do anything. Zhang Yu Han wondered if the look in his eyes were too apparent that his wife had chosen to run away.

Zhang Yu Han took a deep breath to calm down. He stood up and suddenly noticed the bags that he had left on the dining table before they went out for dinner. He picked up their ŀȧptop bags and was about to place them into the office when he saw a plastic bag on the side.

Curiously, he peeked into the bag. His movement paused when he saw the familiar-looking snacks.

”I heard from Wei Jun Hao that you often eat those brands during high school.”

Zhang Yu Han turned around to the voice and saw his wife leaning on the door frame.

A teasing smile curved on her lips when she recalled the conversation with Wei Jun Hao that afternoon. ”Mister Zhang, I heard that you once climbed up the school's fence just to get out and buy these snacks.”

His face darkened at the thought that Wei Jun Hao might speak a few inappropriate words. ”What else did Wei Jun Hao tell you?”

”Hmm…” She walked over to him and placed a finger on her lips. ”That's… a secret.”

Zhang Yu Han let out a laugh. ”Mrs. Zhang, do you think it's wise to share a secret with another man other than your husband?”

Li Qin Yao poked at his ċhėst coquettishly. ”Don't be mad. I just wanted to learn a little something about you. Anyway, it was interesting to hear how others speak about you.” She reached out for a packet of potato chips and tore the packet open. She took a piece and took a bite.

”I haven't eaten these for a very long time,” Zhang Yu Han commented.

Hearing his words, Li Qin Yao took another piece and shoved it to her husband's mouth. Just before he could take a bite at her hand, Li Qin Yao had already pulled her fingers away. Zhang Yu Han's eyes darkened and his jaw clenched at her continuous teasing.

”I should go and check on the bath,” Li Qin Yao pulled away again. ”It will be bad if the water started to spill.”

A low chuckle escaped him as he watched her silhouette once again made her escape. After standing in the living room alone for a while, Zhang Yu Han left the bags on the table and started to go after his wife.

As soon as he walked into the bedroom, Zhang Yu Han took off his wet shirt and threw it aside. Then, stealthily, he walked into the bathroom and watched his wife checking on the water temperature.

Just as she stood up and turned, Zhang Yu Han had swiftly wrapped his arms around her waist, preventing her to make another escape.
