Unexpected Second Chance at Love Chapter 748 Every second of the day

Chapter 748 Every second of the day

Yue Ling sat inside the bathtub filled with warm water. She had told Lu Tian to scoot over but with the tub being a little too small for the both of them. She could only sit between his legs.
The warm water brush against her skin and she sighed at how relaxing it felt.
All the nervous feelings she had before were discarded and forgetting that Lu Tian was also in the tub, she leans back to rest.
However, before she could fully lean back, something brush against the side of her waist causing her to quiver.
Her entire being flinched as she stiffens like a statue. How could she forget that she was not taking a bath alone?
Lu Tian's large palm with small callouses gently caresses past her waist. He held the front of her stomach and with a light push, he moves her closer to him.
As their bare skin touch one another, he lowers his head and leans down to kiss her shoulder before resting his forehead on it.
"It's been a while since we get to enjoy a nice and quiet bath like this."
He sighs after his words and closes his eyes.
Despite it only been a week, due to their busy work schedule and the wedding preparations, they haven't been able to enjoy the quality time together. Even he feels he doesn't get to see much.
Thinking this way, the space between his eyebrows crease together and he hugs her tighter.
"I really miss you."
Yue Ling was surprised by his sudden hug, but she relaxed when she heard his words. She was just about to agree with him when she was dumbfounded by his last sentence.
She scoffs a chuckle and lightly adjust her body to the side. As her bluish-green eyes stare straight into the dark pupils of his eyes, she smiles with an arched brow.
"How can you miss me when we see each other every day?"
They've indeed been preoccupied with work, but they still get to see each other. In the morning before work and at night after work. Some days they even see each other in the afternoon to have lunch.
Lu Tian lifts his head to look down at her. Seeing her bright and amused face, the cold aura that he wears in the day was completely ripped off as she is the only person, he will allow to see this soft and doting side of him.
However, thinking about her question, he sighs and shook his head sadly.
"It's not enough."
He wraps his arms around her and pulls her closer to his chest.
"I want to see you every second of the day."
He held the side of her head against his chest and rest his chin on top of her head.
"Why do you have to work? With the money I make, I can provide for both of us."
Ever since their relationship started, he came to understand that his wife loves to work. However, as much as he understands this side of her, he can't help but worry for her.
It hasn't been long since she recovered from the loss of their unborn child. Yet, she is busying herself every day.
He stares at the blank space in front of him and uses one hand to caress the side of her arm.
"You can just stay at home and be my housewife. Whatever you want to buy, I won't stop you."
Yue Ling was touched by his words and she understood how much he worries about her. She looks up at him but seeing a perplexed look on his face, an idea flashed in her mind.
She raises one hand and using her index finger, she taps it on his chest. A small smile curls on her face as she pushes him more back against the tub.
"Why do YOU have to work?"
She answers him with his own question but emphasized the word 'you'. Her other hand raises to rest on his bare chest that was damped with water droplets.
Lu Tian arched an eyebrow in amusement at her. It wasn't her words that made him curious. It was how she said it and the smile on her face.
Her voice was soft and similar to a sweet lullaby to his ears. However, her smile was more like a smirk. A smirk full of mischief, yet one the devil will make to seduce a soul.
He gazes deeply into her eyes that resemble the Mediterranean Sea and unknowingly leans forward. He wanted to capture her alluring lips and savor its sweet taste.
However, before he could move another inch, Yue Ling's voice sounds again.
"With the money I make, I can provide for both of us."
She repeated what he said word for word, but with a chuckle. Holding her chin with one hand, her other hand moves to gently caress his sharp jawline.
"You know, I am the CEO of 3 infamous companies, soon to be 4."
The tips of her fingers brush over his lip in soft strokes and send him a flirtatious wink.
"I'm not short on money, so how about you be my stay home husband? Hm?"
Her words fell teasingly, but her expression was straight and serious. It was enough to make Lu Tian speechless.
He stares at her with a blank expression, but in a split second, he burst into laughter. Both his arms wrap around her and he pulls her into his embrace. Only this time, he lowers his head and pecks her lip before pressing his forehead against her.
She was not wrong at all. Even he has to admit that compared to his wealth, she might just be wealthier than him.
However…
"I prefer to be the one to work while you stay home."
His eyes gradually close and he inhales the sweet fragrance emitting from her that has not been washed away.
"I just don't want to see you overwork yourself every day."
She goes to her office at De L'amour every day, but that didn't mean she only focuses on the fashion company. She also has to shuffle between the work matters of An Qing and H-International.
Yue Ling softens like butter at his words. She hugs him at the waist and grins from ear to ear at him.
"I am truly blessed to meet you."
The warm water in the tub splatter at her move making her look like a small child in a good mood.
Lu Tian faintly groans a chuckle at her sudden hug, but he quickly stiffens when he felt the softness of her twin peaks press against his chest.
He struggles a hard and difficult gulp as he stares at her.
Yue Ling was muddled by his change of expression. Her head slightly tilts to the side with a small frown.
"Tian? What is…"
Her words had yet to finish when her eyes slowly widen. She came to realize two things. One, the way he was looking at her was like a predator preparing to pounce on its prey, and two, she could feel his awakening dragon poking her abdomen.
She gasps loudly and quickly pushed herself away from his arms. The only thing running in her mind is to not crush his family's treasure with her weight.
"I'm so sorry. Are you hurt-mmf?"
Before she could move another inch away, Lu Tian grabs her arms and pulls her back into his arms. He captures her lips and seals away any words she had yet to say.
He groans softly as he might have used a little too much strength when pulling her back, but it wasn't enough to hurt him.
His head slightly tilts for better advantage and he deepens the kiss. At the same time, he didn't forget to secure her tightly against him like he was kneading her into one with him.
Yue Ling's cheeks burned shyly at what was happening. However, she doesn't refuse him.
Her eyes slowly close and she returns the kiss. Her mouth opens agape as her tongue search to meet his.
