Chapter 234: Are you seducing me?

It was 8 in the night when Li Wei reached home, he was greeted by Old Ye as usual, and she notified that Elaina was already home. "She must be in the room," Li Wei asked. 

"Uh, she is not in the room," Old Ye answered. 

"Where is she then?" Li Wei asked as he looked at Old Ye for an answer curiously. 

"In the kitchen," Old Ye said, as she pointed towards the kitchen. Li Wei had a surprised expression on his face, after which he nodded, and then proceeded towards the kitchen, at a distance, he could smell the odor of a delicious feast that was being prepared.

With quick steps, Li Wei reached the kitchen, where he saw Elaina busy preparing food. 

As the sweet smell of the delicacies assaulted his nose, he quietly walked towards her, and then hugged Elaina from the back, startling her.

Almost flinching, when she felt someone, it didn't take longer than a moment to realize that it was Li Wei. "You are back," Elaina said, as she continued to do her work.

Hearing her, Li Wei 'hmm' ed and then placed his head, on Elaina's shoulder, tightening his grip on her waist, inhaling Elaina's scent. "What are you doing?" Li Wei said as he felt peace with Eliana, there was something in her, that always calmed Li Wei's nerves.

"Making dinner," Elaina answered, as she leaned her head on Li Wei's, stopping what she was doing for a moment. "You know, there are servants. There is no need to push yourself," Li Wei said, as a slight frown formed on his face. He was afraid that Elaina was pushing herself.

She was busy with her work for the Song Industries, which was enough to drain her, he didn't want Elaina to do these things, that would add a strain on her. 

"I am not. And preparing dinner is not that of a hard work," Elaina said, as she took a knife from the side, and proceeded to cut some vegetables, when Li Wei said, "Wait."

"What?" Elaina asked, but Li Wei did not answer her, rather, he released her from the hug, and then came to her side.

Folding his shirt sleeves, he took the knife from Elaina's hand and then said, "If this is not so much hard work, then allow me to help you. It will be done faster if we both prepare it," Li Wei said, as he shifted the cutting board on which veggies were kept, ready to be cut. 

With his long hands and beautiful fingers, he started to cut them, into small and neat pieces. The rolled-up sleeves that showcased Li Wei's strong and muscular arms, the first two buttons of his shirt were undone, displaying his chest.

His long eyelashes covered his beautiful and poised eyes, and his lips, the jawline, that was sharp and well defined...People say that Men look the most appealing when they are cooking, Elaina, who had felt it, couldn't help but agree to it.

Suddenly, Elaina felt that her throat was getting dry, she tried to divert her attention, but her gaze again fell on his long and beautiful fingers, unconsciously, her hand reached his fingers, and touched them.

As soon as Elaina's skin made contact with Li Wei's, Li Wei stopped what he was doing, and with his deep voice he said, "Are you seducing me, right now, Mrs. Li?" 

Elaina's lips curled into a seductive smile, and she said almost whispering, "It wasn't my intention, but since you are saying, I must be seducing you," with an innocent expression, after which she winked at Li Wei, her expression was totally different from how she was with him some days ago, and Li Wei liked it.

Which man wouldn't like a woman who is only bad for him? And the moment, Elaina sent the signals, Li Wei shifted the cutting board with his hand making some space at the kitchen top. Biting his lower lip, Li Wei grabbed Elaina from her waist, and then almost carried her, her legs weren't touching the floor and placed her on the kitchen top, where he had earlier made space. 

Elaina almost gasped at this sudden movement of his, and as he placed her on the kitchen top, she giggled.

Li Wei placed his hands on the kitchen top, on both sides of Elaina, she was now trapped between his arms. Li Wei stepped back and then bending, so as to bring his face in front of hers, he said, "Mrs. Li, you seem more outgoing lately. Any special reason for your actions?" Li Wei asked as his lips curled into a devilish smile. 

Elaina smirked, and then pulled Li Wei's tie, bringing his face close to her, and then giving a peck on his lips, she said, "Do I need any reason for this?"

Li Wei who was taken by surprise by Eliana could feel his face heating up, he said, "Of course not, Mrs. Li," as he slipped on hand into her waist. Then coming closer to her, and bringing her close to him, he took her lips, which had been inviting him. 

Elaina welcomed this, as her hands left his tie, and then circled his neck, decreasing the distance between their bodies, she enjoyed his kiss, while her eyes closed. Their bodies exchanged their heat, making their temperature constant, but the temperature was still sizzling. Elaina could feel a tingle down her spine, whereas Li Wei could also feeling his heart fluttering. Their heart was beating faster, and there was a sudden adrenaline rush in their blood. 

The kiss was long and passionate. 

They only stopped, when they both were out of their breaths, if in their control, they would have their lips connected forever, but alas it was impossible. Damn..human body! 

After they had refilled their lungs, Li Wei went for another kiss, but Eliana putting her hands on his chest and stopped him. She said, "Stop!"

"Why?" Li Wei roared, he was not happy with this restriction, he wanted more. 

"The food! It will burn!" Elaina exclaimed, but it didn't influence Li Wei much, and he said, "Let it be. I don't care," as he went in for another kiss. Elaina was helpless when her warning was ignored by Li Wei, but as soon as his lips touched Elaina's, it was as if she had forgotten everything. All she could think was about Li Wei. 

In all this, Elaina forgot to resist Li Wei, and on feeling so resistant, it only added to Li Wei's excitement. After a second, while Elaina was lost in the kiss with Li Wei, she smelled something. 

SNIFF SNIFF

Elaina was infuriated with the smell of something burning, on getting the alarm, Elaina pushed Li Wei from his chest, even though it didn't do many effects on Li Wei, he stopped. 

"The food will burn!" Elaina exclaimed, as she pushed Li Wei back, and then getting off of the kitchen top, she turned around to the gas stove, to check on their meals. 

"Phew...It's safe" Elaina breathed in relief, as she came to know that the food was safe. 

"Now the food is safe, we should continue our business," Li Wei said, as he leaned in for a kiss, but instead of a kiss, his lips met Elaina's palm. As it did, he opened his closed eyes, and then

frowned. 

"No," Elaina said, as her hand was between Li Wei's and her lips. 

"Enough of that, the dinner is almost ready. And so, go, keep the plates, Mr. Li," Elaina said, as she handed over the plates to the Li Wei, who didn't seem the least bit happy with the restrictions. 

With an unsatisfied face, Li Wei took the plates, and with a light pout, he turned around and went towards the dining to complete the task, his wife had given to him.

Elaina giggled at his reactions secretly, he almost resembled a child that was restricted to stop eating his favorite chocolate, and Elaina being the chocolate, can't help but laugh at the poor Li 

Wei.

After ten minutes, Elaina came out of the kitchen, with dishes in her hand. Seeing her carrying the dishes, Li Wei rushed to her and took one of the dishes from her hand, and kept it on the table, and then pulled Elaina, to sit on the chair, that he had already pulled out for her. 

"Sit here, I will do the rest," Li Wei said, as he went to the kitchen to pick up the other dishes, whereas Elaina arranged the chopsticks and plates. 

Soon, a lavish feast was spread on the table, and Li Wei couldn't wait to taste them. 

"Try them and tell me," Elaina said, as she looked forward to Li Wei's feedback.

Taking the first bite, Li Wei could feel the meat almost melting in his mouth, the flavors and their proportions were all perfect, and Li Wei wanted to eat it all in one go. 

"How is it?" Elaina asked with an expecting reaction. 

"It is delicious," Li Wei commented as he resumed eating the delicacies, Elaina who seemed satisfied by his reactions, began to eat. 

After some time, Elaina put down her chopsticks suddenly, and then with a serious expression, she said, "I heard that Aunt Li dropped by today and also what she said."

As soon as Li Wei heard this, he stopped eating and looked towards Elaina. 

"You don't need to worry about it. I will handle it," Li Wei said, as he put down his chopsticks, and looked at Elaina. 

"There is no need for that. I think it's time for me to appear in front of everyone," Elaina said, with a determined expression, making Li Wei frown. 

"You don't need to. There is no need to push yourself, Elaina. I know you are not comfortable regarding that topic. I will handle mom, you should not worry about things like this," Li Wei said with his eyes looking directly into Elaina's. 

"I am not pushing myself. I am doing it because I want to. I don't wish to hide now."

Li Wei sighed, "There is still time. There is-"

Before Li Wei could finish his sentence, he stopped, when he felt Elaina's hand on his. Elaina squeezed Li Wei's hand slightly. 

Li Wei sighed at his, and then said, "Fine. It that's what you want," as he drank some water from the glass in front of him.

"Thank you, hubby," Elaina said with a giggle. 

'Hubby'

'H-Hubby?'

'H-hubby?!' 

"Cough...Cough," Li Wei choked on the water that he was drinking, and coughed vigorously, as he realized what Elaina called him. 

"W-What happened? Are you ok?" Elaina exclaimed in panic, as she got up from her seat, and patted his back, so as to calm him, but she couldn't see his face. The only thing she could see was his ears that for some unknown reason (to her) had become beet red.
