Chapter 768 Made perfect sense

Lu Tian held onto his wife with blinking eyes. He looks down at her without caring about the fact that she had just flicked his forehead.

He slightly pouts his lip and the space between his eyebrows crease into three tight lines.

"I'm not making a scary face. This is my natural face."

His words fell and he could only turn soft at the sight of her smiling face. He raises his free hand to touch her forehead. She might say she is okay, but he needed to be sure she isn't sick.

Feeling her temperature was normal, he felt a sense of relief. His hand touching her forehead lowers to stroke the side of her face and he smiles.

However, just as he was about to smile, he clears his throat. He cannot smile or else she will want to faint again.

"We should go inside since you haven't eaten anything."

He holds her hand with a firm grip and walks towards the restaurant. Once they are seated, he will order everything on the menu for his wife. He cannot let her faint from his smile or hunger.

Yue Ling did not stop the man but allows him to lead the way. Her entire being at this moment was too dumbfounded to think straight.

She had said he was making a scary face because he was.

His smile that was bright and captivating at first suddenly turned dark. It was as if he had changed into a person who only knows darkness.

However, in the next moment, she sees him trying hard not to smile.

First, it was Zhao Ya'Er who misunderstood her and now it was Lu Tian.

Thinking this, she could only sigh inside.

Without a doubt, the two people were indeed relatives despite the difference in their personalities.

Shaking her head at how childish he can be, she decides to change the subject.

"Why are you here? Are you meeting someone for work?"

Lu Tian glances down at her from the corner of his eyes. He didn't tell her that he was leaving the house, so it was normal for one's partner to question them.

However, for some reason, he felt her questions and her feelings did not match.

She was too calm and trusts him.

"I'm here to meet my wife."

He answers truthfully and gives her a serious expression while trying to keep himself from smiling.

Yue Ling blush at his straightforwardness. She had assumed he was here for work without doubting him, but it turns out he was here for her.

The only question now is, how did he know she was here?

Wanting to know, she parts her lips to ask, but seeing him trying so hard not to smile again, she sighs for who knows how many times.

"Why are you forcing yourself not to smile?"

She stops in her tracks and takes a step to stand in front of him. Raising her hand that was not in his grasp, she taps his cheek with her index finger and gently pushes his cheek up as if to make him smile.

"I like your smile. It makes me happy every time I see it."

Lu Tian was taken back by her sudden stop. He gazes at her without any intentions of moving her hand away from touching him.

To hear her say she likes his smile was enough to make his heart flutter. He doesn't stop himself and smiles at her.

Can't helping himself despite there being others around, he lowers his head towards her.

"Ah Ling! Tian! Over here!"

Before Lu Tian's face could lower any further, Yue Ling turns her head away to find the owner of the voice. She was oblivious to the aloof man's attempt at her.

She looks around the restaurant and sees Madam Lu standing in front of a round table.

"Your mother is calling us. Let's not keep them waiting."

She turns her head back at Lu Tian with a smile then walks over to the table.

As she makes her way to join the three women, she did not see that Lu Tian's expression had turned dark.

He glares at his mother with eyes of evil. He was so close to kissing his wife and yet his mother dares to shift his wife's attention away from him.

Taking a deep breath, he calms himself and walks after Yue Ling. He was not able to kiss her this time, but next time, he'll make sure he succeeds.

"Come, come sit down."

Madam Lu, who was oblivious to what she had done, smiles at the young couple. Well, to be exact at Yue Ling. She sits down and pats on the vacant seat to her right.

"Ah Ling, I saved this seat for you."

Yue Ling doesn't mind and takes a seat while Lu Tian sat to her right. Across from her, Madam Zhao was in utter disbelief at what was happening.

She and Madam Lu had tried so hard to get Lu Tian to let Yue Ling out to join them. However, why is he here and how did he know where to find them?

As she asked the questions in her head, her eyes widen. She darts her head to look at Madam Lu then at Lu Tian before looking back at Madam Lu.

The phone and why she thought her sister-in-law was up to no good.

Now everything made perfect sense.

Madam Lu sat with a beaming smile that could outshine the sun outside. She steals a side glance at her sister-in-law and when she saw Madam Zhao's expression, she became even more full of herself.

Since she has to fight with her sister-in-law and niece for her daughter-in-law's attention, there was only one thing she could do.

Call her son.

With Lu Tian here, the mother and daughter duo wouldn't dare to hog Yue Ling. Even though it meant having to sacrifice her precious time with her daughter-in-law, she rather Yue Ling's attention be directed at her son.

Plus, it was like a win for her too since she is Lu Tian's mother.

Madam Zhao was able to see through the woman's thoughts. She scoffs loudly and looks at the young couple.

Seeing how attentive and close Lu Tian is with Yue Ling, she smiles at the pair then turns her head in another direction.

Her sister-in-law made a bold move, but it was also a smart one.

If she had a son and he was dating Yue Ling, she would have called him for backup too. That way, all the hyenas lurking around will have to back away.

She lightly shakes her head and ignoring the fact that she had called herself, Madam Lu, and Zhao Ya'Er hyenas, she waves to a restaurant employee.

"Excuse me, we are ready to order."
