Unexpected Second Chance at Love

————-

"I'm home!!!"

Yue Ling's angelic voice calls out as she enters her penthouse. She could hear was the voices from tv, but the moment she closed the door, a white fluff ball jumps onto her.

"Woof! Woof!"

"Inu!! My favorite Samoyed!!"

Squatting down, she hugs her baby and rub her cheeks against his soft fur. Moving her face away, she looks at her baby and smiles. In a very quiet voice, she whispers to her favorite Samoyed.

"Inu.... I'm having a baby."

"Woof...."

Inu tilt his head in confusion at his mommy's words. Baby? Isn't he already her baby? Does that mean there's going to be a baby other than him? Wait, is his mommy having a human baby?!!!

"Welcome home."

Lu Tian spoke in his deep voice as his figure appears from the hallway. He steps into the living room and sits on the couch.

Seeing the handsome tall man, Yue Ling felt her heart skip a beat. Swallowing her saliva, she removes her shoes and wear her house slippers. Her bluish green eyes remained locked on the godlike figure on the couch.

"Mm, I'm home."

When she left Ji Mansion, her mind was filed with ways how to tell Lu Tian that she is pregnant. However, now that he is in front of her, everything seemed to vanished.

Their relationship has been going good, but they've been together for only a short period of time...

What if he's not ready to settle down or become a father?

Straightening her posture, her hand clench around the shoulder strap on her Louis Vuitton tote. She takes a deep breath and steady herself.

It was now or never.

If he doesn't want to be a father, she will understand. With her career salary and those she has around her, there's no way she won't be able to raise this baby alone.

Glancing at Inu who sat in the same spot in a daze, her lip curl upwards.

Inu came into her life as a baby. If she could raise a Samoyed all on her own, there's no way she can't do the same with her baby.

Looking back at Lu Tian, she walks toward him.

"Tian, I need to tell you something."

Lu Tian sat on the couch and his eyes locked on his beautiful wife. He swore, she is the most important person in his life. No one can make him feel this way. Even if they haven't been together for a long time, he swore inside to do everything to keep her next to him. Every time he sees her, he could feel himself falling more in love with her.

Seeing her walk towards him and sit down, he couldn't help but stare at her red and luscious plump lips. Such alluring lips should only be kiss by him.

Ignoring Yue Ling's words, he subconsciously leans forward and captures the beauty's lip.

"....."

Yue Ling was dumbfounded. Her eyes turned heavy as the man kiss her. Did he not hear that she had something to tell him?

While Yue Ling was stuck in a daze, Lu Tian's heart leaped to the moon and back. He loves kissing his wife and when he can smell her unique scent. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulls her closer and deepens their kiss.

Just when she was about to run out of breath, Lu Tian reluctantly release her. He press his forehead to hers and close his eyes.

"What is it that you have to tell me?"

"....."

Yue Ling stare at the close up view of the man in front of her. Her breathing was rapid from their kiss, but she inhaled a mouthful of air to calm herself. From their kiss just now, she could feel that Lu Tian's feelings are very sincere towards her.

Pulling away, she looks at him with a serious expression.

Yue Ling: "Tian, I—"

"I'm pregnant!"

Tian: "...."

Yue Ling: "..."

Yue Ling's serious expression dropped to the floor. Hearing the words, her head robotically turn to look at the tv.

'Ah! How dare this show interrupt me!!'

Following her eyes, Lu Tian also looks at the tv. He arch a brow in confusion. Didn't Yue Ling have something to tell him? Why did she stop and look at the tv? Is the show more important than what she had to say?

"What is it?"

"....."

Not answering Lu Tian, Yue Ling's eyes remained on the tv. At first she was annoyed, but now she couldn't but keep watching the show. Curiosity rouse in her more.

Right now, on the tv was a woman and man. The woman had just surprised her husband that she is pregnant. Her plan is to have him crack open an egg, but what he didn't know was that inside the egg contained a small hidden note.

Seeing this, an idea pop up in Yue Ling's head. She looks back at Lu Tian and she decides not to tell him. Instead, she will surprise him.

"What is it?"

Lu Tian asks as he still wants to know. If it wasn't for the tv interruption, his wife would have told him.

She looks at him and shook her head, "It's nothing. I just wanted to say that I'll be going out of Imperial tomorrow for a meeting."

Lu Tian's eyes narrow in suspicion. Was this really what she wanted to tell him? Leaning forward, his eyes narrow more.

"Why do I feel that... that's not it?"

"..."

Yue Ling felt her heart jump. Forcing a smile, she laughs sarcastically.

"Ha Ha, what do you mean? That was it..."

Sensing that his wife is lying, Lu Tian wraps his arms around her and his expression remained the same; full of suspicion.

"Uhh... I'll go change and then make dinner."

Yue Ling struggles to free herself from the man's arms and runs from the couch. Unknowingly to her, she had accidentally bump into her tote bag and dropped it.

"..."

Lu Tian looks at his wife's running figure and he shakes his head. Did she think she can escape him?

Standing up, he turns to follow her, but his foot bumps into something on the floor. Looking down, he sees his wife's bag. Shaking his head again, he bent down and picks it up.

However.....

A piece of paper stuck out from the bag.

Lu Tian frowns at it and picks it up with one hand as his other hand grab the bag. As much as he didn't want to, he still did anyways. Reading the lines, his frown deepens.

Why did his wife go to the hospital?

Then remember her having a migraine, he thought it was reasonable for her to go get a check up.

Not giving much thought to it, he puts the paper back in the bag, but just as he did so, his eyes glance at the words near the bottom and he froze.

'Serum Pregnancy Test Result: POSITIVE'

Reading each word in slow motion, Lu Tian felt his heart tighten as his hand slightly tremble. His reaction wasn't one of someone afraid, but more of someone with pure joy.

His lips press tightly together and he looks in the direction Yue Ling had left.

Remembering how she had something to tell him, a feeling inside tells him it was this. However, the reason she didn't tell him was because of what she saw on the tv.

Is she planning to surprise him then?

Thinking of something, he quickly shoved the paper back inside the bag. Setting it down on the couch, he chase after his wife to the room.

However, he stops when he saw a still in daze Inu. Walking toward the Samoyed, he squat down and pat his enemy's head.

He smiles in joy and whispers to the Samoyed.

"I'm going to be a father, little guy."

With his heart leaping in joy, he could not believe it himself. Standing up, he calms himself down. He needs to act like he doesn't know, but he is curious on how and when his wife is going to tell him.

Now, he's even more determine to get L'amour de ma vie when he goes to City Z. He wants to proposal to woman he loves and give her his surname.

Walking towards the bedroom, Lu Tian's expression was cold and calm, but deep inside, he was running around in joy at the greatest news.
