SECOND CHANCE TO LOVE YOU AGAIN - Season 1 Episode 56

For the first time in his thirty years of living, Lu Tian was dumbfounded by a woman. He glare viciously at the door. This was the second time since their encounter that the woman dare to slam a door at him.

Just who was he? Many people fear him, and yet, this woman treats him like some fool.

He lower his head and looked at the grocery bags in his hands. A deep frown appear on his handsome face and his lips pout.

Was his idea… a mistake?

Yue Ling leaned against the door and tried to catch her breath. She got her heart and thought, ‘Why is he here? Did I somehow anger him by walking around his car?’

Suddenly, her eyes shot widely open and cover her mouth as she gasp, ‘Oh go! My grocery bags!!!’

How could she have forgotten about them! She hadn’t even had the chance to eat dinner!

Patting her chest, she whisper to herself, “Han Yue Ling. Get a hold of yourself. You got this!”

It was now or never. Her Yeye told her that those who show fear will only be consumed by their own fearful thoughts.

And as her Yeye’s granddaughter, she is a strong woman!

Taking an extra deep breath, she gathered all her courage and open the door.

The moment her door opened, and she came face to face with the devil. She wanted so badly to slam the door shut again, but she thought about her yeye’s words again and held herself back.

She looked the man in the eyes with her bluish green eyes. Her aura completely different from earlier.

Clearing her throat, she pointed to the grocery bags in Lu Tian’s hands, “Are those mine?”

Lu Tian stood unmoving from his spot.

Just like the her, he stared back at her.

“Mm”

Hearing him, Yue Ling’s eyes shook for a second.

‘Oh god! Why does his voice have to sound so appealing too!! So unfair!’

Shaking off the thought, she reach her arms out to take the bags. As if the man outside was just a delivery boy.

“Thank you, I can take them from here.”

Before she could even touch the bags, she was struck in the head by his next words.

“Dinner.”

His voice was very sexy and a little hoarse. Any woman would fall for a handsome man with a seductive voice.

With her hands pausing in mid air, Yue Ling crease her brows at the man, “Eh?”

Lu Tian maintained his supreme mastered poker face, “I haven’t had dinner.”

“….” and what does that have to do with me?

Of course, she didn’t say it out loud.

She pursed her lips and turn her head to look at the wall clock; 7:45pm.

It’s was getting late, and she was hungry. She also needed to unpack. Glancing at the grocery bags in Lu Tian’s hand, an idea came to her.

“Fine, I’ll cook you dinner.”

Lu Tian’s eyes lit up like fireworks, but he quickly hid it. His plan actually worked!!

Yue Ling sighed and step to the side as she opened the door wider for the man.

Lu Tian did not hesitate to enter the devil’s lair.

At the same time, she was cursing herself for being so reckless in letting some stranger inside her house.

Well, they weren’t actual strangers. They have already done the deed. Once he finishes his food, she’ll just kick him out.

“Here, wear these.”

Yue Ling’s words were indifferent as she takes out a pair of house slippers from the small closet by the front door.

Lu Tian glance at his woman then removed his black oxfords and slide his feet into the slippers.

Although his expression was aloof like he didn’t care, he was smiling happily inside. He was inside his woman’s home!

Just how lucky was he?!

Oblivious to Lu Tian’s thoughts, Yue Ling pointed to the wall attached island, “You can set the bags on the counter.”

And just like a servant following his master’s command, Lu Tian did exactly what he was told.

“You can sit on the couch and wait. I’m going to change then I’ll cook.”

Hearing the words ‘change’, Lu Tian glance at the woman in astonishment. He had never met a woman who was so careless in words. She spoke those words as if he was a woman friend. And he was not a woman!!

Think of her words, he frown in thought. Would she have been like this if it wasn’t him and some other man? No! He won’t allow it!

Yue Ling didn’t bother to care about the man and just walked to her room closet.

She had completely forgotten that he was still a stranger to her. Even worse, she didn’t even know his name!

While Yue Ling left to change, Lu Tian’s eyes remained on her slender back.

A sudden thought came to him, he felt as if he’s seen that back somewhere before.. he just couldn’t remember where…

Without him knowing, a faint smile rose on his lips. She was really pretty. The way she dressed herself wasn’t like other women he’s come across.

Her style was simple but elegant.

Removing his tan wool coat, he unbutton his tailored suit jacket and removed it, placing both clothing onto the couch.

Sitting down, he now realized that her penthouse was a mess. Boxes and bags were everywhere!

Usually when someone invites someone into their home, wouldn’t they say, ‘Sorry, my house is messy.’?

Shortly after, Yue Ling walked out of the room wearing a grey oversized knitted sweater dress that reached her knees. Gathering all her hair, she tied it into a messy bun with the elastic band in her hand.

As if Cupid has just shot an arrow to his chest, Lu Tian could feel his heart beating rapidly. It was a suffocating feeling, but it also felt good.

Like a person who was struck with love.

Getting a clear look at her facial features, he was once again mesmerized by her.

She didn’t wear thick layers of makeup allowing one to see she was a natural beauty.

A real beauty.

Every step she took matched the thumping of his heartbeat.

Walking to the kitchen, Yue Ling dig through the grocery bags and took out a new apron. Putting on the apron, she continue to take the things out.

“Oh, don’t mind the mess, I just moved in.”

Lu Tian lower his head and smiled faintly, “I know.”

“Eh? What was that?”

Looking up, Lu Tian was surprised. He shook his head, “Nothing.”

“…”

Yue Ling hands Lu Tian a glass of warm milk, “Drink this for now.”

Lu Tian, however was confused. How did she warm the milk so fast?

Looking at his expression, Yue wanted to laugh, but instead, she coughed, “It’s not poison.”

How could she tell him that when she said she just moved in, the man had doze off while she warmed up the milk.

Lu Tian reached for the glass like it was the most natural thing to do. As if, it was an everyday thing where his woman hands him a glass of warm milk.

However, instead of touching the glass, his hand ended up touching hers.

Like suddenly being electrocuted, Yue Ling jumped and just when she was about to release her hold on the glass cup, Lu Tian’s large hands covered hers and secured the glass from falling.

“…..”

Her face redden and retrieved her hand, “um, I’ll go cook.”

Looking at her retreating figure, Lu Tian felt his heart softened without him knowing. He held the glass of warm milk in one hand and he gaze at the hand he used to touch hers.

Her hand was small and very soft. It was his first time holding a woman’s hand.

In the kitchen, Yue Ling didn’t dare to look at the figure sitting in her living room. She could still feel the warmth from the man’s hand on hers.

His hand was bigger than hers and she could feel the calluses on his palm. The veins on his the back of his hand made it look even more sexier…

Realizing what she was thinking, she pinch the space between her brows.

‘Han Yue Ling, get a hold of yourself!!’

Forcing all the thoughts to the back of her head, she started preparing dinner.

To her, eating with someone was better than eating alone. Even if that someone was a stranger.
