"It won't be a surprise anymore if I tell you," Yi Lan said playfully. After changing their clothes, they immediately got massages. Lie Ruge felt so good being massaged to the extent that she fell asleep in the process. She had been busy working for the past couple of years. So she did not have time to visit the spa once since she came back from the Academy despite how filthy rich she was.
"She looks so extraordinarily beautiful. I have never seen someone look this pretty while sleeping," one of the ladies whispered to her partner.
"Yes she is, just take a closer look at her flawless skin. I wish I was the one who had this type of perfect skin and looks, it would have been so awesome," Ling Ling said inaudibly as she touched Lie Ruge's delicate skin. Yi Lan who pretended to be fast asleep listened to their conversation with delight.
"You should have seen how stunning she looked when she arrived with her boyfriend. They looked so dazzling to the point that I could not take my eyes off them," the first lady said as she touched Lie Ruge's face.
"Sshhhh... I think she is in the process of waking up based on the noise," Ling Ling said as she put her index finger on her lips as a signal for her partner to keep quiet. Lie Ruge stretched her body a little before she sat up.
"How long have I been sleeping," Lie Ruge asked curiously.
"It has been thirty minutes since you fell asleep Madam," Ling Ling replied politely.
"Thirty minutes? And you didn't even care to wake me up?" Lie Ruge asked sternly as she turned around to see whether Yi Lan was still there. She was so surprised when she saw that he was looking affectionately at her.
"Do you feel better now? I told them not to wake you up. Come on, let's change into our normal clothes. I bet you must be so hungry since you didn't have breakfast," Yi Lan said caringly as he walked towards her.
"I'm sorry that I fell asleep on you. The massage felt so good so I couldn't resist the urge to fall asleep in the process. You are not angry that I made you miss your breakfast, right?" Lie Ruge asked cutely as she wrapped her hands around Yi Lan's waist. The two ladies immediately excused themselves when they saw how intimate the couple was getting. One of their duties was to respect their customer's privacy so they quickly fled. Another reason why they fled was that they did not want to eat dog food.
"It's alright. I perfectly understand the reason. I know very well that my Ge'er is not the type to casually fall asleep even when being forced to. I bet the baby must have wanted to sleep. That is why you couldn't deny her request and I'm not the slightest bit angry with you. I enjoyed watching you sleep so soundly," Yi Lan said as he pecked her on her lips.
"That tastes sweet," Lie Ruge said seductively as she leaned in for a deeper kiss. The shameless couple kissed intensely for five minutes before they finally got dressed and left for the restaurant.
"Ge'er, you are free to order whatever you want. I will be very happy if you will order all the most expensive dishes they have. With us in this VVIP room, nobody will stare at you weirdly for eating to your fill and you will not feel uncomfortable. While ordering, don't forget you are not allowed to drink alcohol Ok," Yi Lan said sweetly as he passed her the menu.
"Are you sure I can order whatever I want? Especially the most expensive ones? You might regret your words later on when I start ordering," Lie Ruge said playfully before she started telling the waitress all her orders. The waitress opened her mouth in awe when she saw all the dishes the beautiful lady had ordered. It was up to ten different varieties of dishes. Comprising of Chinese, French and Italian dishes.
"Are you sure that those will be enough for you? You don't have to be shy when it is just the two of us, you can order more," Yi Lan said.
"You are not feeding a pig, so that is enough for the both of us", Lie Ruge replied playfully.
"You have ordered for me too? That is so sweet of you wifey," Yi Lan said sweetly as he caressed her two hands affectionately. The waitress immediately left after he realized that they had finished placing their orders. The waitress with the help of another waiter placed all their orders on the long table. They were both surprised that it was only two people that were going to eat the feast they had just arranged on the huge dining table.
"Ge'er I know that you are very hungry, but despite that, eat slowly or you might choke on your food. Besides, the food is not running away," Yi Lan said as he quickly cleaned her mouth.
"Ok, I will,'' Lie Ruge said smiling as she started eating slowly and elegantly like her usual self. They ate for a long time until Lie Ruge admitted that she was satisfied. After eating, Yi Lan suggested that they should relax a little for the food to settle down in their stomachs before they left.
"Hubby, I heard that there is an art gallery close by and they sell the best paintings. Can we drop by at the gallery on our way back to the hotel? I want to buy a present for mum. As you know, mum loves paintings very much," Lie Ruge said softly as she teased Yi Lan's chest with her right hand while resting her head on his shoulder.
"You can do that some other time. Besides, we are not leaving today," Yi Lan said calmly as he stroked her hair.
"Have you forgotten that we are leaving in two days? I might forget to buy it if I don't buy it today. So let's just go there today hmmm?" Lie Ruge asked cutely. The way she acted so cute made Yi Lan realize that her cuteness acts have drastically improved. She wasn't weird at all, acting so adorable.
"How could I forget that when we planned it together? And we will go there just like you want. Let's just relax some more in this VVIP restaurant room. Ok? We will leave after a couple more minutes," Yi Lan said tenderly. Just like Yi Lan had wanted, they rested a bit in the restaurant room before they left for the art gallery. Lie Ruge began to love paintings because of her mother-in-law. So while looking for a present for her mother-in-law, she enjoyed the numerous fine quality paintings that were hanging on the walls.
"Ge'er, this painting reminds me of the day we met in the restaurant on our blind date. I will never forget the expression on your face when you saw me in the restaurant. Your expression was filled with rage because I stood you up for a couple of minutes," Yi Lan said smiling mischievously as he concentrated his attention on the painting.
"Really? Hubby, there is something I have been meaning to ask you," Lie Ruge said as she turned around to face Yi Lan.
"What is it?" Yi Lan asked curiously as he turned around to look at her.
"Why did you agree to the blind date our parents set up? Did you know that I was the little girl from your childhood before you agreed to meet with me or did you find out later after that day? And why did you kiss me? Mum told me you despised me after I got betrothed to Gao Yan. So why did you agree to meet me if you hated me as mum said?" Lie Ruge asked as she stared deeply into his eyes.
"Although I hated you, who doesn't know the CEO of Empire Corporation? I learnt about your existence through the newspaper and television. Since you were pretty successful you were always mentioned on business newspapers and television, although, your pictures were never displayed during such news. I was furious when Dad set the blind date, but I was curious at some point about how you had lived for those years we didn't meet. It was the same curiosity that brought me to the restaurant that day. I was taken back when I saw how pretty you were in real-life than the pictures my men gave me when they did some background checks on you. I was surprised that you became even prettier, but I was also a little furious that you had lived so well without me by your side. They said you can never forget your first love. I never believed those words until that day in the restaurant when I couldn't resist my desire to kiss those s.e.xy lips of yours. I knew that it was rude of me to do that to you when you were innocent, but I couldn't help it," Yi Lan said as he rubbed his lips s.e.xily when he recalled that heated scene in the restaurant.
"Really? If that was the case then why do you look so pleased right now?" Lie Ruge asked as she threw him a suspicious glare.
"I just can't forget the taste of your lips on mine that day," Yi Lan said smiling naughtily.
"I bet you are enjoying recalling that memory. Should I take advantage of you right now so that you would know how I felt that day?" Lie Ruge asked playfully as she slowly advanced towards Yi Lan.
"Sure, I don't mind," Yi Lan replied shamelessly, shocking Lie Ruge who wanted to tease Yi Lan. Lie Ruge immediately walked away when she saw how excited Yi Lan was. After purchasing three fine paintings, Yi Lan and Lie Ruge left the art gallery. They did so much fun stuff before they went back to their hotel room when it was night. They arrived in their hotel suite at exactly 8:30 p.m.
"What was I thinking," Lie Ruge exclaimed dejectedly as she hit her head.
"What is the matter wifey?" Yi Lan asked worriedly as he quickly stood up from the bed. He walked close to her and held her hands.
"I just realized that I had run out of my body lotion and you know that I cannot make use of any other lotion except that one? I can't believe how forgetful I have become," Lie Ruge said sadly.
"Is that why you are this sad? I'm sure that mum might have put an extra for you. Let me search for it in our dressing room," Yi Lan said caringly as he tried to leave, but Lie Ruge quickly grabbed his hand.
"That is not necessary. I have already searched for it but I did not see any spare one. I should have bought it when we were out, but I completely forgot about it and now I won't be able to take my bath without it," Lie Ruge said, still maintaining her sad expression.
"You don't have to worry. I will go out and buy it for you. Just stay in the room. Don't take a step out of our room while I'm away Ok? I will be right back," Yi Lan said as he carried her to their bed.
"You are the best hubby. While you are at it, don't forget to buy some ice cream for our baby alright?" Lie Ruge said sweetly. Her expression changed immediately when Yi Lan agreed to go out. It was as if she was planning something.
"Hey everyone get in right now. He has just left. We don't have much time," Lie Ruge said sternly before she disconnected the call.
