Unexpected Second Chance at Love Chapter 637 Crazy thoughts in his mind

As rain serenade on the metal roof of Yue Ling's white Maserati Granturismo sports car, she sat in the passenger seat with eyes wondering out the window.
Like her, Lu Tian who had offered to drive kept his eyes on the slippery road in front.
When they left the restaurant, Lu Tian suggested they go to a clothing store to buy new clothes since their house was far. However, Yue Ling protested and said for them to go to her company.
However, throughout the car ride, neither person spoke a word.
The sound of the heater and trickling rain can be heard like music singing one to sleep as every few second, the windshield wipers would move to clear off any rain.
Unable to take the silence anymore, Lu Tian lifts his hand to massage his forehead to get rid of his frustration. He made sure to not cover his eyes so he can still see the road.
Even without looking at her, from the corner of his eyes, he can tell that her mind was preoccupied with something.
He wanted to ask her who was the person she was looking for, but he was also afraid to ask. What if she gives him the cold shoulder for wanting to know too much? What if the person is someone who is more important to her than he is?
The space between his brows crease together and he frowns with slightly pout lips. He couldn't believe that someone as cold and aloof as him could have this kind of foolish thoughts.
Chuckling at himself, he shakes his head to rid of any unnecessary feelings.
'I am important to her. If I weren't, she wouldn't have kissed me back despite knowing that the person she is looking for could still be around.'
As he spoke these words to himself, he began to feel better, but within the next second, another thought sneaks its way inside his head.
'But what if… no… but then again… no…'
After a long minute of talking to himself, he finally muster all the courage inside and asks.
"What are you thinking about?"
He asked in his usual indifferent tone that Yue Ling was oblivious to the fact that his mind was in a chaotic mess. She looks away from the passenger window to the devilishly handsome man in the driver seat.
Slightly leaning towards him, her expression was one of solemn. Her bluish green eyes stare directly at him making him grow agitated beyond imaginable.
"Would you prefer Shredded Ginger Chicken Congee or Spicy Pork Shoulder Congee?"
"…"
Lu Tian was wash with disbelief at her question. He swore it was like someone had sliced open the roof of the car and allowed the cold rain to pour onto him.
He close his eyes for a quick second to steady his mind and turn to look at her.
"That is what you've been thinking about?"
Seeing him suddenly turn to look at her, Yue Ling was taken back by surprise. Both her hands reach out to him as one lightly hit his arm for being careless while her other hand turn his head back to the road.
"Tian, you're driving! It's raining so don't take your eyes off the road."
As his head turn away from her, she did not see the tiny smile of relief that curled on his lip.
He had been going back and forth from crazy thoughts in his mind and it turned out she was thinking about what he wanted to eat.
"Chicken is fine with me."
Hearing his answer, Yue Ling looks at him with a small squint of her eyes. She couldn't help but feel that he was expecting a different response from her.
However, seeing him as indifferent as always, she shrugs the thought away and takes out her phone.
When they were walking to her car, she had asked if he had eaten lunch and he answered no. Since they were heading to De L'amour and there were a few local restaurants nearby, she'll have Liu Shan pick up some congee for Lu Tian.
After she sent the message to her assistant, she looks out the window again. Only, this time, she didn't look at the passing buildings but at the water drops on the glass.
She would be lying if her mind weren't filled with many things. However, above all else, Lu Tian is the first on her mind as she cannot let the man starve from hunger.
As they drove under the rain for a few more minutes, they soon arrive at De L'amour.
"CEO Han, what happened to you? Why are you all wet?"
Upon their entrance inside her company, Sophia gasp in shock at the sight of them. Didn't Yue Ling leave home? Why is she returning drenched by rain? And who is the man next to her?
She wasn't able to see Lu Tian clearly due to the umbrella that blocked his face. However, when he closed the umbrella and set it down, her jaw dropped to the floor.
Oh my God! The rumor is true! Her boss and Imperial's number one bachelor are a pair!
Yue Ling stares at her receptionist with a perplex look on her face. She didn't understand why Sophia was making it seem like she had purposely jumped into a lake.
"Where is Liu Shan?"
Hearing the question, Sophia returns to reality. She picks up the only towel on her desk and rush over to give it to her boss.
"Assistant Liu left about five minutes ago. He instructed me to get a towel ready for you and inform you that he will be back shortly."
There was only one towel because she thought it was only her boss. Never did she think someone else would arrive with the woman.
She glance at Lu Tian and her cheeks flush red. Not in a bashful way, but out of embarrassment at her lack of doing her job correctly.
"I'll get another towel for Mr. Lu."
Yue Ling didn't hold any resentment towards the young woman for blushing. She takes the towel and turn to face Lu Tian.
"It's alright. I'm not that wet so he can use this one."
She doesn't ask for his opinion and wraps the towel around his shoulder as if to keep him warm.
He had been sheltering her with the umbrella that he was more drenched by the rain compare to her. As it was only her shoulder and the leg of her high-waisted jeans that were wet due to their short walk in the rain that had suddenly turn heavy.
"We'll be in my office. Once Liu Shan returns, tell him to come up."
As her words fell, Sophia's eyes widen in shock and horror at what her boss was doing. She was scared for the woman as she has heard many say that Lu Tian hated when women touch him.
However, seeing that the man wasn't bothered by Yue Ling's sudden move, she (Sophia) relax her shoulders.
It had only been a few seconds and she already forgot that the two people in front of her are a couple.
She leans forward and gives a polite bow.
"I will let Assistant Liu know of your arrival."
Yue Ling smiles a nod at Sophia before pulling Lu Tian towards the elevator. She needed to get him out of his wet clothes or else he'll catch a cold later.
Watching the couple enter the elevator, Sophia was at a loss for all words. Lu Tian did not even resist to Yue Ling for pulling him away like a child who had been playing out in the rain all day.
What cold and ruthless man in Imperial?
Lu Tian is none other than a henpecked husband who never dares to contradict against his wife!
