Chapter 281 - Cannot Afford to Offend (1/2)

Li Qin Yao noticed that her husband has been staring at her strangely for the past few days. However, whenever she asked him about it, Zhang Yu Han would only tease her that he wanted to continue to stare at her because she looked good.

Although that was not the first time that her husband would say such things, Li Qin Yao couldn't help but think that there was something different in his gaze. It was as if her husband was worrying over something but he did not want her to know about it.

Seeing that Zhang Yu Han was still staring at her, Li Qin Yao decided to go towards him and tiptoed to link her arms around his neck. She pulled his head closer to her and rested her forehead on his.

”Zhang Yu Han?”

He stared into her eyes and smiled. ”Hmm?”

”Why do you keep staring at me? Aren't you bored yet?”

His arms circled her waist to support her and chuckled. ”You silly girl, how can I get bored looking at you?” Zhang Yu Han leaned to peck at her red lips and sighed. ”Qin Yao, you look beautiful tonight.”

Li Qin Yao tilted her head sideways and giggled. ”Really?”

Presently, the two of them were dressed up to attend LUX Group anniversary banquet.

Li Qin Yao was wearing a dark blue knee-length wrap dress with short flutter sleeves. Her black hair was loose with soft curls framing her face. Her face had a light make up, and her lips were painted in bright red shades that Zhang Yu Han knew that she liked so much. While he was wearing a suit from the same color shade to match his wife.

Although she was wearing a high heel, Li Qin Yao would still need to stand tiptoe to reach him.

Zhang Yu Han had seen his wife dressed up in many styles and outfits. He thought that he would never get tired of seeing her in different garments. His wife was so beautiful that she would look good in anything that she wore.

Knowing that she would get mad if he ruined her lipstick, Zhang Yu Han only dared to peck at her lips once.

She lowered her gaze and pulled away before reaching for his hand. ”Come on. We don't want to be late.”

Zhang Yu Han nodded obediently but paused to tugged at her hand softly. ”Qin Yao, when we get home later, I have something to talk to you.” He forced a smile when he saw the worried look on her expression. He bopped at her nose and continued. ”Stop worrying too much for now. We'll talk once we get back home, alright?”

Li Qin Yao stared at her husband for a few seconds before she nodded. Although she was curious to know what he was going to tell her, Li Qin Yao knew that this was not the proper time and place to talk. She could sense that what Zhang Yu Han was going to tell her was something important.

The two held hands as they entered the hotel and headed to the banquet hall.

Zhang Yu Han glanced at the woman beside him and could not help but worry at how she was going to react once he told her what he had heard and found out.

Two days ago, Zhang Yu Han unexpectedly received a call on his office line. He was surprised when his secretary told him that it was Han Yue Xiu. Zhang Yu Han thought that it was strange for Han Yue Xiu to contact him. Although he had met his wife's friend a few times, Zhang Yu Han never had any other contact with her.

Thinking that it might be an important matter, Zhang Yu Han picked up the call and was surprised to hear from Han Yue Xiu that Li Mu Chen was posting on the dark web forum to look for someone to harm his wife.
