Chapter 52 - A chance (1/2)

When Li Singtan returned to his room, he saw Xie Ming peacefully sleeping. He sat beside her and touched her cheeks. He promised himself that he would never let his enemies do anything to her. He will always protect her.

After sitting beside his wife for a while, Li Singtan got up and walked towards his study.

After some time, Xie Ming woke up and noticed that the side beside her was empty. She got up and looked around. Noticing that he was not there, she knew where he was. Slowly getting down she started walking towards the door.

.....

Inside the study room.

Li Singtan was busy reading some documents when the door of the study room opened.

Li Singtan looked up and saw his wife slowly walking inside the room. He quickly got and caught her hand and said," Why aren't you resting?"

Xie Ming ignored his question and said," Just because I am not feeling well that doesn't mean that you have the Liberty to again work like a horse."

Li Singtan scratched his head and said," This actually-"

Xie Ming interrupted him and said," I know that you did not eat anything since afternoon." Raising her eye brows, she continued," Am I right Mr Li."

Li Singtan carried her in his arms and said," You shouldn't be walking like this."

Xie Ming hit him on his chest and demanding," Let me down."

Li Singtan ignored and continued walking.

Xie Ming felt irritated and shouted ," Let me down. When you don't listen to me why should I listen to you?"

Li Singtan halted. Looking at her red face, he knew that his little wife was angry. He sighed and said," Okay fine I did not eat anything." He paused for a while and said," I'll go get something to eat for both of us from the kitchen. We can eat it together in the room itself. Okay?"

Xie Ming nodded her head," Get more food. I am very hungry."

Li Singtan smiled and started walking towards their room.

.....

Next day when Xie Ming woke up, Li Singtan was still sleeping beside her.

Turning her head towards him, she silently observed his handsome face.

She touched his nose, then his cheeks and eyes and then at last his lips. Realising what she was doing, Xie Ming quickly retreated her hand back.

She got up and leaned on the headboard and thought about how Li Singtan had protected her yesterday. He did not even think twice before firing an employee for her sake. She actually owed Li Singtan a lot. Looking at him again she smiled. This man had saved her when she was about to take her own life away. He had given her a new life. He was even willing to wait for her. So she should give this relationship a chance right?

Thinking about this, she slowly mumbled," I'll think about it."
