Chapter 171 - Please, Come and Kiss Me

Back in Y City…

As Li Qin Yao walked into the hotel building, the staff who saw her immediately greeted her politely.

Nowadays, almost every staff had recognized her as the Director's girlfriend.

At first, Li Qin Yao was a bit uncomfortable with their extreme friendliness. However, after coming back to the hotel for a few more times, she was slowly getting used to it.

The receptionist who saw her from afar quickly approached and led her to a special elevator. 

As usual, Secretary Tian was waiting for her in front of the elevator. Seeing her punctuality, Li Qin Yao could guess that the receptionist must have informed Secretary Tian of her arrival.

"Miss Li, good evening. The Director is waiting for you," Secretary Tian greeted.

Li Qin Yao nodded. The two of them chatted casually before Secretary Tian left her in front of Zhang Yu Han's office. After knocking the door, Li Qin Yao pushed open the door and sauntered in only after she heard Zhang Yu Han's voice.

Zhang Yu Han lifted his head from the document and smiled when he saw Li Qin Yao. 

"Why are you late?" Zhang Yu Han's voice sounded a bit complaining, but the expression on his face showed that he was glad to see her. He stood up from his chair and walked over to his girlfriend. "Is traffic bad? I told you that I can come over and pick you up after your meeting, but you wouldn't listen."

"The meeting ended later than expected," Li Qin Yao said. "Moreover, aren't you busy helping Grandfather with that project in L City?"

Zhang Yu Han frowned. He had recently found out that his girlfriend and his secretary's relationship was pretty good. Sometimes, Li Qin Yao would ask his secretary to check on his schedule before she made a plan that would include him.

Because he knew that she was afraid of troubling him, Zhang Yu Han could only let her do as she wanted.

"Are you still busy?" Li Qin Yao wrapped her arms around his waist and tilted her head to look at him.

"Hmm… I just need to finish something," Zhang Yu Han said. "Then we can go out for dinner and I'll send you back home, alright?"

Before Li Qin Yao could answer, Zhang Yu Han, bent down to kiss her on the forehead, causing her to shrink back a little bit. Because she has been walking to the hotel, Li Qin Yao knew that her forehead must be sweaty.

Li Qin Yao placed a hand on his ċhėst and gave him a little push. "You should get back to work. Or else, we'll be late for dinner."

For the sake of going out for dinner with his girlfriend, Zhang Yu Han could only do his work diligently. Moreover, he had promised to accompany Li Qin Yao to go back to Capital City to attend her cousin's wedding soon.

As Zhang Yu Han sat down and dealt with his work, Li Qin Yao sat on her usual spot at the sofa to sent an e-mail to Liang Sheng over the meeting discussion earlier.

Just as Li Qin Yao pressed on the send e-mail buŧŧon, Zhang Yu Han called her name and gestured her to come over. Li Qin Yao stood up and walked over. When she reached by his side, Zhang Yu Han passed a stack of papers at her.

"I forgot to show this to you earlier," Zhang Yu Han said. He pushed the ŀȧptop screen to face her and opened a document. "The architect sent me an e-mail on the hotel designing. What do you think?"

Li Qin Yao glanced at the computer screen, and then, at the stack of papers in her hand. The two of them then began to discuss a little bit about the design. 

Once Zhang Yu Han had listened to her opinion, he then turned back to his computer. Meanwhile, Li Qin Yao leaned on his desk in a half-sitting position while looking at the data on the papers.

Finding a piece of information that she did not understand, Li Qin Yao then turned to Zhang Yu Han to ask. However, once she saw her that he was too concentrated on his job, Li Qin Yao paused. 

Because she was still standing and Zhang Yu Han was sitting in his chair, Li Qin Yao was able to look at him properly. She stood there, watching him for a while longer, admiring his good look, but that man did not even notice that she was staring. 

Li Qin Yao curved her lips into a smile. She put the stack of paper slowly on the table and called out his name. "Zhang Yu Han."

"Hmm?" Zhang Yu Han turned to look at her with a questioning gaze. 

Before he could ask her what was wrong, Li Qin Yao had already bent down to kiss him softly on his lips. Once Li Qin Yao pulled away, she could see an apparent excitement on his face.

"What is that for?" Zhang Yu Han smiled.

Li Qin Yao tilted her head sideways. "What? I cannot kiss my boyfriend?"

Zhang Yu Han let out a chuckle. "That's not it." He leaned back on his chair and with a slightly pouted face, he said, "Other than the first time, you never initiated to kiss me."

Li Qin Yao stared at him for a while and let out a small laugh. "Isn't it because you're too tall? Even if I stood tiptoed, I still cannot be looking at you face to face, right?"

Now that he thought about it, Zhang Yu Han wondered if her neck would strain every time he kissed her for a long time. Zhang Yu Han continued to stare at her and for the first time, he thought of how their difference in height can be an inconvenience as well. 

As Zhang Yu Han continued to stare at her in his position, suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. He continued to stare at Li Qin Yao and blinked at her a few times as if trying to convey something.

"What's wrong with you?" Sensing his strange stare, and that strange expression, Li Qin Yao started to feel a bit uneasy. 

However, Zhang Yu Han did not say anything but continue to stare at her in a cutesy way.

"Zhang Yu Han, what are you..." Li Qin Yao trailed off.

This strange look on his face... his expression was screaming, 'please, come and kiss me'.

Once she understood his gaze, Li Qin Yao did not know whether she should laugh or cry. Slowly, she approached him again to kiss his lips again.

The first time Li Qin Yao sneaked to kiss him, he was unprepared. This time, Zhang Yu Han cupped his hand on the back of her neck to hold her in place and reciprocate her kiss.
