Chapter 84
Finally, Li Han saw her huddling on the sofa in the living room.
He changed his shoes and walked over lightly. The moonlight outside the window streamed in and landed on her face. She was in an awkward position and slept uncomfortably. She was still holding her phone in her hand, which was unlocked with the screen on.
Li Han slowly pulled the phone out of her palm. He meant to put it aside, but he glanced at his name on the screen.
He paused and looked over carefully. It was a text message that she didn't send out, which read, "When will you come back? I have something to show you."
It was already typed in the input box. She could send it with a single tap. Why hadn't she sent it to him until she finally fell asleep in hesitation? Was she afraid that he would guess the surprise she prepared for him or that she herself would reveal the secret surprise?
Imagining that scene, Li Han's eyes softened instantly. He squatted down and reached out. He was going to wake her up, but he changed his mind and lowered his head to kiss her when he touched her. Although he kissed very gently, Shu Tian still felt that it was difficult to breathe in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes and suddenly saw a very familiar face.
Shu Tian was startled and pushed him away, "You, you're back?"
Li Han's eyes were deep, shining like obsidian, "Yes."
Shu Tian didn't seem to be fully awake yet. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, after which she saw the balloons in the room... Damn it!
How could she forget about this!
Li Han looked at her increasingly unnatural movements and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Shu Tian blinked shyly, "I just want to give you a surprise..."
She didn't expect that she screwed it up due to sleepiness in the end.
"Everyone else's surprise is prepared meticulously. What about yours?" He meant that he did not come home for dinner tonight.
At the mention of this, Shu Tian was embarrassed, "How did I know you wouldn't come back here?"
Otherwise, she would have asked him to come back in advance with an excuse. However, now that he was back, she was even more embarrassed.
Li Han looked at her lively expression. He felt that the depression smouldered when he was in the old residence tonight almost dissipated now. He raised his hand to touch her fluffy head, with his eyes gentle and charming, "It's not late now."
Then, Shu Tian watched him walking into the dining room and sitting in his seat. He sliced the cold steak and put a piece into his mouth.
Shu Tian followed him there, "Stop eating. It's stone-cold."
"I'm Hungry." Li Han, who had eaten the whole bowl of rice tonight, didn't even blush when he told this lie.
Shu Tian didn't doubt him, "Then let me heat it for you."
As she spoke, she reached out to take it away but was blocked by Li Han, "No, it's good."
"Are you sure?"
She fried this steak at least two hours ago. It was not only stone-cold but also a little tough.
Li Han nodded, "Sure."
He couldn't bear to let her bustle around in the kitchen at this hour of the night.
Seeing that he was not reluctant at all to eat the steak, Shu Tian didn't say anything more. Turning her eyes, she suddenly thought of the birthday present for him. She ran to the kitchen and mysteriously took out a red box. Then she handed it to him, "Well... This is for you. I don't know what you will like, and you don't lack anything. In the end, I just buy this. Open it."
Li Han looked at the festive red package. Hesitating for a moment, he opened it layer by layer and finally saw a pair of exquisite crystal cufflinks and a tie.
They were in the style that he usually dressed in. He also liked the brand very much, but he always bought high-quality tailor-made clothes of the brand rather than those supplied to stores. However, what she gave him was better than any high-quality tailor-made clothes.
"When did you buy it?" He remembered that goods of this brand had to be bought by appointment, which meant that she had already started preparing his gift long ago. She just kept it secret to him. Shu Tian was a little speechless when he mentioned it, "It was the day I went to the police station."
Obviously, Li Han didn't expect it, either. He glanced at her playfully, "It's really hard for you."
"... It was a coincidence."
Li Han knew that she was thin-skinned, so he didn't say anything more. He immediately took off his cufflinks and put on the new pair. Then he reached out his hands in front of her, "Are you satisfied?" Shu Tian blushed at his question and retorted in a low voice, "... It's me who should ask you this, isn't it?"
Li Han withdrew his arm and intently stared at her, "As long as it's from you, I'm satisfied."
Her heart suddenly thudded wildly that it couldn't beat faster. Perhaps every man who rarely coaxed women was the same. One day, when he said words of love to you, he would be dozens of times more romantic than ordinary people.
"It's good that you like it." In contrast, Shu Tian was a lot more nervous. She stammered out a blessing, "Then I wish... I wish you a happy birthday."
Under the bright and soft yellow light of the restaurant, her face also became warm. She stood at the table elegantly and smiled slightly, which made Li Han feel peaceful.
This was his birthday of thirty-three years old. Since he was sixteen, he had not celebrated his birthday anymore, nor had he received any birthday gifts.
Cakes, balloons, and big meals had nothing to do with him. His only activity on his birthday was to go back to grandma and grandpa's house for dinner. However, it was hard to pretend to be happy there. Now that he came back to see all this, he was surprised. He thought that she had not prepared anything for him because she forgot his birthday. He never thought that she had done so much behind him.
"I want something else besides a birthday present." His voice was hoarse and low, falling into her ears like a sonata.
Shu Tian leaned closer to listen to him, "What?"
"You."
Shu Tian straightened up, "I suddenly remembered that there's another file that hasn't been sorted out. Wait for me..."
Before she could finish speaking, she had been stopped by Li Han's terrifying eyes.
Talking about work at this time, well, it was indeed a little disappointing.
But... She was really a little scared. She had known how energetic this man was on the bed. Tonight was probably another sleepless night. She was afraid of thinking about it.
More importantly, she somehow bought one "avant-garde" underwear. Although she had already changed into it, she backed out again at this point.
While she was lost in various fancies, Li Han had already stood up from his seat. He slightly bent to match her height, with one hand propped up on the dining table. He said playfully, "In return for all you've prepared for me, I will definitely 'perform' well tonight."
Shu Tian hurried to wave her hand, "No need. You're too polite... Huh..."
Li Han took off his suit jacket and put it on the chair. He looked at the second floor, "Have you taken a shower?"
"Not... Not yet... Ah!" Before Shu Tian could find a good reason, she had already been carried in Li Han's arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck in fear, "What are you doing?"
"Can't you guess what I'm doing?"

"I know you've taken a shower. You have the smell of my body shampoo."
Shu Tian was shocked and muttered, "Are you a dog? Your nose is so sensitive."
Li Han was in a good mood and passed over her remarks. His thin lips curled up, "Say all you want to say now. I'll make you speechless in bed later."
Shu Tian was so shy that she couldn't raise her head. She buried her face in his chest, and her heart skipped a beat because of his words.
At this time, Li Han was the most savage and manly...
