“Huh?” Lina had yet to react when she was pressed down on the bed by Zuko. With a blanket covering them, they began their progress for a mini version…

Chris went to Lena’s place early in the morning after buying groceries.

Lena was enjoying a rare weekend, still in bed. Chris stood at the bedroom door and watched the sun rays shine on her through the window, making her look like she was gilded. Her lips were slightly parted as if she was murmuring in a dream.

Chris smiled and placed the groceries in the kitchen. He then approached Lena and gently kissed her forehead. Lena slowly opened her eyes and nuzzled into his embrace like a cat.

“Why did you come so early?” Lena asked.

“Alexander mentioned he’s coming for lunch, so I got the ingredients early,” Chris replied.

Lena chuckled. “Planning to show off your cooking skills to him?”

Chris grinned. “Of course! I want him to see how capable his brother-in-law is!”

Lena beamed with happiness, and the gloomy days were finally over. Today was a new day.

Lena being warm and safe in Chris’ arms was making him lose control. He held her tightly, and his hands started to wander, but he didn’t dare to be too bold, just gently caressing her waist.

This made Lena feel ticklish, and she pushed him away, blushing uncontrollably.

Chris said, leaning closer, “Lenny… How about… I just stay here from now on?”

“Huh?”

“I won’t take advantage of you,” Chris said seriously. “I just think you’re not good at taking care of yourself. If I live with you, it will be convenient for me to take care of you. And when Alexander comes over for meals, I can cook for you guys!”
