209 Why did he stop?

''Yes Father.''

He answered curtly. There was no need pretending, he knew that his father had already seen the news, if not, he would not have called so repeatedly.

He could hear his father's rapid breathing on the other end of the line. It seemed as though there was a lot he wanted to say but he did not know how to say it all out..

''I want you to come to the ancestral home tomorrow. Do not keep me waiting.''

Liu Wei was not given the chance to respond before the call was disconnected. He looked at the screen of the phone for some time then turned around to walk into the room.

''Baby? ''

Liling who had come out of the bathroom could not find Liu Wei, she immediately called out. She was tying a towel which was long enough to reach just above her knees. Her hair was damp and her face was tinted a shade of red as a result of the hot bath. She did not find Liu Wei in the room, so she decided to go look for him downstairs.

As she approached the door, Liu Wei called from behind her.

''Wifey ''

Liling turned around and her eyes met with his. There was a smile on his lips as he walked into the room.

''Where are you going?''

He asked as he walked towards her, Liling left the door and closed the gap between them.

"I was looking for you.''

She replied warmly, a faint blush on her cheeks. Liu Wei raised his raised his hands to cup her cheeks. He heaved a sigh of relief as he looked into her eyes; he was not saying anything, so Liling covered his hands that were on her face with her palms.

''What is it?'' She chuckled lightly. Liu Wei stared into her eyes with fervent love; he felt that the world could stop so that they could remain in each other's arms, forever.

''Beautiful, so pretty.''?He said, leaning in to peck her on the lips. Liling's blush deepened as his words drifted into her ears. She could not look into his eyes anymore given how embarrassed she was.

Liu Wei chuckled and pulled her into his arms. ''Mm, smells so nice. ''

He closed his eyes and inhaled her scent. Liling hugged him back around the waist, a contented smile on her lips.

''My hair is wet, it'll wet your shirt.''

She said after a long while of silence.

''I don't care. I'll love my shirt to be soaked with your scent'' He replied charmingly as he pecked the top of her head. Liling blushed, feeling adored.

''Father sent for me.'' Liu Wei said after sometime. He felt her body stiffen for a moment. Liling wondered if it had anything to do with the news they had refused her to see.

She wanted to ask if there was something wrong but she could not get her lips to move. Staying in his arms, she listened to his heartbeat quietly.

''Wifey…''

''Mm…''

Liling's brows creased as he heard his question. He was getting her scared now. Lifting her head from his chest, she peered at him. His eyes were cloudy and they held so much emotion.

''Baby, what is wrong? ''

She asked looking into his eyes, a troubled expression on her face.

''Nothing, I just want you to be by my side, always … forever. You will do that right?''

Liling stared at his facial features for a while, admiring his ever irresistible handsomeness. She was really blessed to have someone who had eyes only for her. She was lucky to have him. There was no way she was going to leave him; she wondered what would make her to, after a while, a smile slowly found its way to her lips.

''Okay. '' She said with a light nod. Liu Wei smiled back and in the next second, her lips were covered with his.

Liling, who had been anxiously waiting for him to make the first move, did not hesitate in deepening the kiss. She held onto his neck as her other hand clutched his hair and pulled him closer to her.

She had totally forgotten that she was wearing nothing but a towel__ they had both forgotten. Liu Wei pried open her mouth and kissed her deeper, hungrily, like he had been starved for a very long time. Liling felt her legs giving way, so she put her arms around his shoulders for support. Suddenly, she felt her towel loosening, and before she could come to her senses, it had fallen off.

She immediately snapped out of her daze and tried to cover herself properly. As she opened her eyes she discovered that the towel had not fallen down completely, Liu Wei's arm which was around her back prevented it.

Liu Wei opened his eyes slowly and his gaze fell on two round succulent-looking breasts. Her nipples were red and erect, slightly covered with goose bumps. Her chest was rising and falling rapidly.

Liu Wei gulped down hard, throughout his life; he had never had such a hard-on as he was having right now.

He really wanted to look away but his eyes remained glued to her chests. Liling was not talking, she had initially wanted to cover herself but her hands stopped when she saw the effect she was having on him.

He stared at her hungrily as though he would devour her the next minute. Liling could not really place what she was thinking; she wanted him to touch her, her whole body was on fire, she badly wanted him, but she was scared since it was her first, she heard it hurt very much.

Suddenly Liu Wei blinked out of his daze; he gulped down hard and pulled the towel back up to her chest. He helped her hold it firmly in place so it would not fall off again.

''You should dress up, I'll... go... take a shower.''

He awkwardly turned around and walked into the bathroom, closing the door tightly behind him.

Liling stood speechlessly, watching the closed door. It took her a moment to correctly place what just happened.

One minute it looked as though he would devour her and the next second, he was no longer interested. Ha! Liling had not felt so embarrassed in her whole life; she wished she had covered herself when she had the chance.
