Setting the paper down in front of her, Ji Chu Hua reach for her handbag and takes out her phone. She snaps a photo of it then place the paper back inside the drawer where she had found it.
She stares at her phone and laughs evilly at how fast she found what she needed. Standing up from the chair, she was about to leave but glance down at the photo of Ji Jingxu, then to the one of Yue Ling again.
Bending forward, she gently caress the photo like she was actually caressing Yue Ling.
"Let's see what you will do."
She moves her hand and with a light flick, the photo falls back and drops onto the hard floor as the frame shatters.
She walks around the desk with only the sound of her clacking heels inside the room. Until she stood on the same side as the broken photo, she lets out another sinister chuckle and flicks her hair to her back.
"Han Yue Ling, I wonder what kind of face you will make when you know that your precious grandfather is dying."
Her last had only fell when the sound of hurried footsteps reach the door to the room.
"Grrr…."
"Ji Chu Hua!"
Housekeeper Hu's angry voice shouted when he saw the vicious woman in the room. Standing in a defensive stance at his side was the almighty Inu.
"Who gave you permission to enter Master Ji's study room?!"
Hearing the way he was speaking to her, Ji Chu Hua scoff inside. However, when she turn to look at Housekeeper Hu, a refine and ladylike smile cross her face. Of course, that smile slightly faltered when she saw Inu.
The Samoyed was beyond adorable and anyone who sees him would want to hug him. However, his entire being at this moment was ready to attack Ji Chu Hua if she made one small mistake.
She quickly steadies herself and stares right into Housekeeper Hu's eyes.
"Housekeeper Hu, I am a member of the Ji family. It's normal for me, Grandather Ji's granddaughter to come here and bring my grandfather a gift."
Her words fell and she turns to her handbag on the desk. Picking it up, she takes out the small box that had been wrapped and set it down on the corner of the desk.
"Since MY grandfather is not home, I have no need to be here."
Putting on an innocent façade, she turns into a victim daughter who was being bullied by her family's servants.
Without saying another word, she strides out of the room but cautiously pass Housekeeper Hu and Inu.
"Wroof! Wroof!" 'Evil being! You stink!'
Inu barks defensively at the woman. He could smell all kinds of evil from Ji Chu Hua, but he stood guarding Housekeep Hu in case the woman tries to harm the old man.
Housekeeper Hu scans the room quickly before closing the door. He locks it then follows in the direction Ji Chu Hua had gone. He had only left for thirty minutes to buy some nourishing food to bring to Grandfather Ji at the hospital.
Never did he think the evil woman from the second Ji family would suddenly show up.
He swore, he's going to lecture all the employees in the house. Who was it that cleaned the old man's study room and forgot to lock it?! He's also going to make sure they are fire on the spot.
As Ji Chu Hua exit the Ji Mansion, she quickly enters her car and drives away from the place. She has already found what she needed, so now, she can go have a little fun on her own.
Back at Yue Ling and Lu Tian's house, the couple was unaware of the situation that had taken place.
Yue Ling had fell back to sleep after eating the delicious food Lu Tian had cooked for her.
Next to her in bed was Lu Tian, but he was not sleeping. He sat up with eyes wide awake. He held a few work documents in one hand as his other hand wrap around his sleeping wife.
"Hmm…"
Like she had felt a slight chill, Yue Ling sighs softly and nestles closer to Lu Tian. When she found a comfortable position against his warm body, her soft and quiet breathing sounds again.
Lu Tian lowers his hand holding the documents when he felt her small movement. He set the papers down on his lap and reach to grab the blanket.
Seeing the red love marks on her body, his entire being soften with guilt before covering her with the blanket.
Next time, he will definitely be gentler and try to give her less love marks.
Thinking about their intimate exercise and her captivating expressions in response to him, he struggles a hard gulp at her sleeping face.
However, seeing her tired face, he could only suppress his desire for her.
The reason he had the courage to take her was because on his way home last night, Doctor Dong finally called him back to say it was safe.
If it weren't because of the old doctor's words, he would have continued to hold back and not turn into a wild beast.
As he thought this, he picks up the documents and set it down on the side table. He carefully moves his arm wrapped around her and gets up from the bed.
He made sure to be a light as a feather and quieter than mouse so that he would not disturb his wife's sleep.
After making sure she was warm under the blanket, he bends down to kiss her forehead then leaves the room.
He enters their shared study room and reach for his phone on his desk. Unlocking the screen, he dials a number and place the phone next to his ear.
The line rang twice before it connects, and a man's voice sounds from the other line.
["Ah, Lu boy. I was just about to call you."]
Lu Tian responds with a simple mm with his mouth closed before parting them to speak.
"Is it ready?"
["Haha, you really do have good senses. It finished today. Whenever you are done with the preparations, I will have it personally deliver to you."]
"Mm. I appreciate your help."
Lu Tian ends the call and looks out the window. Seeing that the rain had not once stopped, he frowns a sigh.
Why is it still raining? Should he just take his wife to the civil bureau and register their marriage license right away?
"Tian?"
Lost in his own thoughts, Yue Ling's angelic voice mix with tiredness sounds from behind and interrupts him.
Lu Tian turns around to see his wife at the door. However, she was rubbing her eyes with one hand and leaning against the door frame to support her weak body for falling.
She looked like a child who had awoke in the middle of night.
A smile curls on his lip and stride over to her. Even if he wants to take her to civil bureau, he knows that he cannot do that. Not yet.
She deserves a lavish and grand wedding with those she deeply cares about to witness their oath in front of God.
He stops in front of her and pulls her into his arms to be her support.
"What's wrong? Why did you get out of bed instead of resting some more?"
Feeling his arms wrap around her, Yue Ling felt a sense of warmth from him transfer to her. She leans the side of her head on his chest and inhales his manly scent.
"I'm hungry…"
Lu Tian blinked his eyes before letting out a chuckle at her reason for waking up. He leans back a little to look down at her.
"But Your Majesty, earlier you ate until you were full and couldn't eat anymore."
"Mm…"
Yue Ling groans softly with her tired eyes closed. She tilts her head from side to side as her body sway in follow.
"But zhen is hungry again."
Her small movements caused Lu Tian's body to follow her every move. He sighs at her adorableness and gently picks up her up. However, unlike the usual princess style carry, he lifts her enough so that when he set her down, her feet was placed on top of his.
He held her tightly in his embrace and walks their two bodies back to the bedroom.
"Do you want to eat in or out?"
Yue Ling smiles at how good he treats her. She wraps her arms around his waist and tilts her head back to look up at him.
"Food stall. I want to eat steamed buns."
Lu Tian glance down at her and seeing her eyes still closed, he couldn't help but chuckle again. He lowers his head and gives her a small peck on the lip.
"Mm. Anything my Mrs. Lu want."
