Chapter 270 - How to Eat a Cupcake

Once Zhang Yu Han had entered the bathroom to shower, Li Qin Yao hurriedly went into the kitchen and took out the cupcakes from the oven and started to decorate them with the frosting that she had prepared earlier.

Fortunately, she only needed to frost only one of those cupcakes. Since it did not take a long time, Li Qin Yao quickly hid the cake back in the fridge before he came out of the shower.

When Zhang Yu Han came out of the room, he found that his wife was sitting on the carpeted floor in the living room with the television on and a ŀȧptop on the coffee table. It seemed as if she was looking at some documents while watching some fugitive movie. He slid to sit down on the sofa behind her and reached his hand to massage her neck and shoulders.

Feeling his touch, Li Qin Yao let out a sigh as she leaned back. "Hubby, you're the best."

Zhang Yu Han chuckled at her compliment. He peered at her ŀȧptop and asked, "You're busy?"

"Hmm… there are a few documents I need to review first." She leaned her head on the sofa, just between his knees and looked up at him. "Right. Zhang Yu Han, will you accompany me to LUX Group dinner banquet next week? It's next Wednesday."

Zhang Yu Han readily agreed. "Sure. Remind me of the date and time later."

"Mom called today," Li Qin Yao continued. "She said that our parents are going to meet and have dinner this weekend. They're going to discuss our wedding banquet."

"Alright," he nodded again. "Speaking of the wedding, we haven't had our wedding photos yet. Let's take a day off someday and shoot."

"Oh," Li Qin Yao looked at her ŀȧptop again and paused when she recalled something. "I still haven't chosen a wedding dress."

"Hmm… let's take a day off to choose one later. We'll discuss this with them this weekend."

Suddenly, he wondered how his wife was going to look in her wedding dress. His eyes darkened at the thought that his wife was going to wear an open back dress like the one she had worn previously.

Zhang Yu Han sighed at the thought that he hasn't prepared a lot of things. Fortunately, his mother had returned from Country C. Knowing his mother, Zhang Yu Han knew that he can rely on her to help him with the preparation.

As the thought came to his mind, Zhang Yu Han stood up and headed to the study to organize his timetable. 

Seeing that her husband had walked into the study, Li Qin Yao heaved a sigh in relief. She did not know how she was going to pull that surprise if Zhang Yu Han had chosen to stay in the living room to accompany her. 

Li Qin Yao glanced at the clock and noted that there was around half an hour before the clock struck twelve. Although she was supposed to review some documents, Li Qin Yao could not help glancing at the clock every ten seconds as she did not want to miss her timing.

Finally, there were two minutes left before twelve. Li Qin Yao glanced at the study and smiled as she noticed that the door was still shut. Stealthily, she walked into the guest room and pulled out the present she bought for him. Then, she walked into the kitchen and took out the cupcake from the fridge. 

Li Qin Yao glanced at the clock again and lit the candle at the center of the cupcake. Then, she walked towards his office and knocked.

Just as she heard Zhang Yu Han's voice from the inside, Li Qin Yao pushed the door and started to sing him a happy birthday song. Seeing the surprised look on his face, the smile on Li Qin Yao's face grew wide. 

Li Qin Yao stopped just in front of Zhang Yu Han as the song ended. She tiptoed to kiss his cheek and said, "Zhang Yu Han, happy birthday. Come. Make a wish and blow the candle."

Zhang Yu Han bent down to blow the candle. "When did you prepare this?"

"Hmm… I came back earlier today to prepare this."

"You baked this?" Zhang Yu Han watched her nodded. "So that was why you were acting suspicious and sneaky today."

"When did I acted sneakily?"

Zhang Yu Han did not answer but leaned in to kiss her on her lips. When he pulled away, Zhang Yu Han watched as his wife scurried out of the room and came back with a paper bag in her hand.

"Your birthday present."

"What did you get me?" Zhang Yu Han raised a brow as he took the paper bag. He took out the gift wrapped in the blue and white wrapping paper and frowned as he tried to guess what was inside. His gaze paused when he saw what was inside—a blue shirt.

"You don't like it?" Li Qin Yao asked cautiously when she saw that he did not have many expressions on his face.

What with that slight disappointment on his face?

"This is from you. Of course, I liked it. Just that," he paused to meet her gaze. "What happened to you, wearing sėxy lingerie and tying a bow on yourself and giving yourself a gift?"

Li Qin Yao felt the corner of her lips started to twitched. That was what Han Yue Xiu had suggested, but back then, she had thought that it would be too crude.

Who would know that her husband would like something like that?

However, at the thought of that strange ears and tail, Li Qin Yao decided against it. She did not think that she was brave enough to wear something like that and she did not want Zhang Yu Han to think that she had a strange hobby.

"Why would I give you something that's already yours?" Li Qin Yao linked her arms around his neck and kissed his lips in an attempt to coax him. 

Zhang Yu Han thought about her words for a moment and nodded. He held her waist tighter and said, "That's true." He bent down to rest his forehead against her and pecked at her lips. "Wife, you are mine."

Hearing his possessive words in his deep and vibrating voice, Li Qin Yao's face turned red. No matter how many times she had heard this voice, she would always have goosebumps. 

Swiftly, she pulled away from him. She took the cupcake on the table and handed it back to him. "How about taking a bite? I worked hard to bake this for you."

Zhang Yu Han stared at the cupcake on the plate and suddenly his lips curled into a roguish smile. "Qin Yao, do you know how to eat a cupcake?"

"Ah?"

He picked up the cupcake on the plate and stared into her eyes, causing Li Qin Yao to be mesmerized at the twinkle in his eyes. "You don't know? Come on, I'll show you how to eat a cupcake."

Li Qin Yao did not why, but she suddenly grew anxious.

"First, you lick the frosting." Zhang Yu Han brought the cupcake close to his mouth and licked the cupcake. "Then, slowly, you tear the cupcake liner." While maintaining his gaze on her, Zhang Yu Han started to peel off the liner. "Then, you take a bite." Following that, he took a small bite at the cupcake.

By the end of his demonstration, Li Qin Yao felt her back started to sweat. "Zhang Yu Han, why do I feel like you're not really talking about eating cupcakes?"

The smile on his lips grew wider. Zhang Yu Han put the cupcake back on the plate and leaned forward to lick her lips before he plunged into her lips for a kiss.

Li Qin Yao shuddered when the cold air blew on her skin. It was then that she realized that her pajama has been peeled off.

Zhang Yu Han's words about eating cupcakes surfaced in her mind and Li Qin Yao had a hunched that she was about to get eaten.
