Unexpected Second Chance at Love [5]

CHAPTER 821: A guest

The entire house was engulfed in silence the moment Lu Tian entered the room. No one dares to utter a word, let alone breathe.

Unlike everyone, Yue Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Lu Tian's behavior. He reminded her of a gangster boss questioning his wife on the pet she picked up for some odd reason.

She quickly brushes the thought away and smiles with her teeth at him.

"This is Liu Ye. He is a guest in our home."

Lu Tian remained unfazed and nodded his head in greeting at Liu Ye, but he didn't forget to glance at Jiangyu, Yiqing, and Xu Long. His silent contact with the eyes was enough to send a chill to the three men and everyone who saw.

His men didn't hesitate to look away as they knew there would be many questions need to answer later.

He looks back at his wife again, and he gives her a soft smile. It was as if the expression on his face never changed.

"He's a guest if my wife says so."

His words fell in a calm tone as he raises his hand closest to his wife. His movement was like he was putting his arm on her back of her chair.

However, instead of doing so, his hand stretches past her back and takes hold of her wrist.

He moves Yue Ling's hand that was still on Liu Ye's head with little force. His other hand also reaches towards her and helps put her hand on her lap before holding it in place.

"We've been separated for too long. I want to hold your hand."

"..."

Yue Ling and everyone in the house stared at Lu Tian with heavy eyelids.

His words sounded natural, like a husband caring for his wife. However, his actions were that of a jealous man annoyed that his woman is touching another person.

Yue Ling shakes her head with a long sigh but doesn't say anything. They were away from each other for a little more than thirty minutes. Not only that, they were in the same house.

How can he say they have were separated for too long?

However, knowing that he is obviously eating vinegar, she decides it was best not to add oil to the fuel.

Although Lu Tian was aware of how everyone was looking at him, he didn't care about it. He calmly stands up from his seat and places a kiss on his wife's forehead as he is aware his wife doesn't like the attention.

"I'll go see if there's enough food for everyone."

He walks away, leaving everyone dumbstruck ed by his sudden shameless nesses, including his wife.

Liu Shan stood in the distance with his mouth hung open as he didn't know what to think. He was worried about Yue Ling and Lu Tian's reaction towards Liu Ye being in their home.

However, it seems like he was overthinking the situation.

He remembers something and looks at Xu Long, who stood next to him. He pats the man on the shoulder and heaves a sigh with his head slowly shaking.

"I survived my boss all on my own. Now, it's your turn to survive, your boss."

Xu Long doesn't look at Liu Shan but stares with wide eyes in the direction his boss had gone. After what felt like an entire day had gone by, his head slowly turns to look at the assistant.
