Unexpected Second Chance at Love [2]

CHAPTER 247: Why

The glass double door slides open and Yue Ling and Lu Tian exit out of Imperial Military Hospital. Lu Tian suddenly remembers that the fashion show and Grandfather Ji's birthday is nearing. He looks at his wife and sees her playing with the keys to his car in her hand.

Thinking of something, he sneakily takes the keys from her hand.

"Eh?!"

Yue Ling surprisingly jumps a little and looks at the man next to her. She tilt her head and frown.

"Why? I thought I was driving?"

Seeing her quick change in expression from surprise to a frown, Lu Tian smiles and takes her by the hand. Leading the way to the car he spoke to her.

"I'll drive us somewhere. I need help deciding on some things."

Hearing his words, Yue Ling was now confused. Allowing him to lead the way, she touch her chin with her free hand.

"Eh? You need help?" Her head tilt to the side again making her look like a lost and confused child. "What can it be that the King of Jealousy needs help with....?"

Lu Tian: "..."

The was dumbfounded, but because he is Lu Tian, he is able to pretend he didn't hear her. Did she really think she was quiet? How can she call him the King of Jealousy? He isn't that kind of person, all he ever does is love his wife and care about her. When did he become known as the King of Jealousy? Who can he possibly be jealous over?

Well..... no...

Shaking the thought away, he continues to guide his wife to the car. Of course, he doesn't know where she parked the car, but knowing that its his own car, he can pick it out in a parking lot.

As the couple leaves to their next destination, this time at the Ji Mansion, Jingxu just arrived home from an afternoon outing. He steps into his room and carefully place his book bag down. He unzips the bag and takes out an already wrapped gift.

Looking down at it, he smiles happily.

After his older sister came to visit, Liangcai, Ting, Xue Yi and Ye Fei wanted to go out. He tagged along so that he could go find a gift for one of the two people who means the world to him.

Staring down at it, JingXu's smile widens. He had the shop wrap it up since he doesn't know how to wrap a gift nicely. Of course, this gift is only one of the two gifts.

Without taking his trench coat off, he turns around and leaves his room. As he heads in the direction of his grandfathers study room, his head dart left to right making sure no one sees him.

As he nears the room, he sees Housekeeper Hu walking out of a room near the end. Jingxu quickly moves his body to the side and crouch down behind a pot of plant.

One....

Two....

Ten....

After counting to ten, he slowly poke his head out. Seeing that the coast is clear, he sighs in relief and straightens his posture.

Taking a step forward, he continues on to the study room until he stop in front of it.

He took a deep breath and reach for the door handle. A little part of him cant help but feel guilty for going into his grandfathers study room without asking. However, when he came home, he asked one of the maids if his grandfather was home and she said the old man had left to Ji Corps.

Besides, it wasn't like he's stealing anything. He just wants to make sure that the old man opens his gift first.

The door knob clicks open and Jingxu enters the room. He slowly closed the door and stood in the center of the room. Looking at the only shelf in the room, he lift one of his hand to touch his chin.
