Chapter 54 Dinner Date



Chapter 54 Dinner Date

Yan Mei stared at the scene in front of her and froze.

There was an aisle of red rose petals leading to a flameless tea light candles shaped in the form of a heart. At the center of the heart-shaped candles was a table with lit tealight candles, placed in a delicate candle holder on the table. White napkins were spread on the table with a bouquet of flowers in the middle. A bottle of champagne was lying in a bucket of ice waiting to be drunk.

Instantly her jaw dropped and her eyes widened. She was in shock! Yan Mei never thought someone would take his time to prepare such a romantic dinner. She can see he put in a lot of thoughts into this.

"Do you like it," Lei Zhao nervously asked as he scratched the back of his head.

Yan Mei turned to face a very nervous looking Lei Zhao. She could see the fear in his deep eyes. \'Was he afraid that she wouldn\'t like it? \'

"No."

Hearing her answer, his face dropped as he looked at his toes, now feeling disappointed at himself. His stomach churned in disdain. Knowing his wife, he should have known that she would hate something like this.

"Oh…" He trailed off, not knowing what to say. "If you don\'t like it, we can go to a restaurant," he added flatly, trying his best to contain his sadness.

Yan Mei stared at him, and a soft smile tugged at the corner of her lips. She could hear the disappointment in his voice.

"I love it, stupid!"

"Huh?" Lei Zhao asked blankly, he thought he had heard her wrong.

"I don\'t like it—I love it rather. It\'s so beautiful!"

Lei Zhao\'s face beamed with a smile when he heard her. Seeing his beautiful smile, Yan Mei couldn\'t help but also smile.

That smile was the prettiest thing Lei Zhao had seen in a while. It seemed so genuinely sweet that an unexpected warmth rushed through him. He felt his heart beating as he stared at her in a daze. If Yan Mei\'s smile is the sunlight, then Lei Zhao would be the sunburn.

"Are you going to stare at me all night with that smitten look," Yan Mei laughed as she teasingly asked.

Lei Zhao grinned, "It\'s not my fault that my wife is the most beautiful woman in the world," he purred, now feeling satisfied with the surprise he had prepared for his beloved Yan Mei.

Yan Mei rolled her eyes at him. She realized that he had been hiding his left hand behind his back since they got out of the car. Lei Zhao saw her looking intently, so he walked closer to her.

Feeling giddy as he tried to be serious, he grabbed her hand and placed a beautiful red aster flower in her hands.

"I know you like watching the stars… so the first thing I thought about is to give you an aster flower. Aster flower is derived from the Greek word, "Star". It also symbolizes faithfulness. And since I like you wearing red, I chose this red aster which symbolizes my undying devotion to you."

Yan Mei felt tears brimming around her eyes, threatening to fall but she slammed them back. She stared at him and didn\'t know how to react.

This man kept melting her icy heart with his thoughtfulness, patience, and love. Even a robot without any emotion could still be touched by him. She threw her arms around his neck and pressed her head into his shoulder. They almost fell since he was caught off guard, but he instinctively wrapped his arms her for his dear wife\'s protection.

Lei Zhao grabbed the flower she was holding and put it on her hair.

"There… beautiful," he complimented with a soft smile.

Yan Mei touched the flower and couldn\'t help but feel giddy. At that moment, she felt like she was nineteen again, going on a romantic date with her prince charming.

Lei Zhao saw her in a pleasant mood and felt that Edward Wu did a marvelous job. He owes him since all of this wouldn\'t have been possible without him.

Lei Zhao took her hands and led her to the table. He pulled out a chair for her then Lei Zhao sat across from her and smiled satisfactorily.

The moment they sat down a waiter came to pour them wine and left without saying anything.

Lei Zhao watched as she sipped her wine and Yan Mei noticed his fervent gaze, making her blush, her face now beet red.

"What," she muttered embarrassingly. Lei Zhao shook his head and smiled warmly at her. Yan Mei noticed his eyes moved from her nose, cheeks, lips, the curve of her neck, then the tiny bit of cleavage peeking out from her shirt due to the opening of two buttons.

Following how his eyes traveled on her, Yan Me rolled her eyes at him then spoke. "Pervert," Yan Mei said as snorted. Lei Zhao chuckled and winked at her.

"I\'m just checking out my wife! How does that make me a pervert?" He blinked at her innocently, as if feigning ignorance.

Yan Mei rolled her eyes again and ignored him.

"So, what\'s your favorite color," Lei Zhao asked curiously, remembering what Edward Wu told him when they went out for coffee. He wanted to know more about her.

"Crimson red," she replied with a smile.

"You really look good in that color," Lei Zhao said as they locked eyes across the table as everything around them started to fade away. They barely noticed the waiter as he placed the first-course meal in front of them.

Realizing that they have been staring at each other for quite a long time, Yan Mei broke the gaze as she asked, "What is your favorite food?"

She wanted to cook his favorite food for him in the near future. She plans on taking cooking classes to learn how to cook for him. It is the least thing that she could do to thank him.

"Mapo Tofu," he answered, making the girl in front of him nod as she raised her brow.

Lei Zhao watched as she ate with a soft look on his face. Yan Mei gazed over him over her glass as she sipped her wine. She knew he was watching her.

"What did you want to be when you were a kid," Lei Zhao suddenly asked, making Yan Mei think of her answer for a while.

"Hmm… a princess. I wanted a prince charming to come to sweep me off my feet!"

Lei Zhao burst out laughing when he heard her. He hadn\'t expected to hear this answer from her!

"Really? Don\'t tell me you had been fantasizing about fairy tales."

Yan Mei glared at him when he heard his remark. Because of his reaction, this made the girl feel childish!

"Don\'t blame me. It\'s not my fault! My mother would always read me a fairy tale story before I sleep every night so I would fantasize about meeting an actual prince before sleeping."

Hearing this, Lei Zhao thought his wife must have had been cute when she was a kid.

"Hmm… I see," Lei Zhao said as he tried to contain his laugh.

"Well, what about you?" Yan Mei blushed slightly and tried to change the topic.

"I wanted to be a soldier so I can protect my family," Lei Zhao shrugged as he answered, a strange glint passed through his eyes.
