Chapter 264 - Will I Ever Have Your Heart?



Chia Hao finished his coffee first when he could have finished the toast. It\'s as if he wanted to finish the drink just so he could remove the bitterness with eating the buttered bread last!

As Ru Shi noticed this, she instead made him orange juice, Chia Hao thanking her once again as he made a comment on how she was preparing his drinks for him.

"Thank you," he thanked her first, further commenting on her efforts. "Your coffee may be bitter than my usual tastes, but don\'t worry. It helped me."

With a smile, Ru Shi sat before him once more, not wanting to sit beside him since there are still documents found on the space beside him on the couch.

"You\'re welcome… umm… I\'m sorry. I\'ll do better next time once I know your preference."

"Coffee with milk."

Ru Shi blinked her eyes a few times, not expecting his sudden answer.

"I beg your pardon?"

"Coffee with milk," Chia Hao said again, his sweet smile making her heart race as he further explained what he meant. "It\'s my preference. With me saying it again, it would mean that I will hope from time to time that you\'ll make it for me?"

Ru Shi didn\'t know what to say. With her just batting her eyelashes at him as she blushed, Chia Hao found her prettier than ever, his wife averting her gaze away from him.

"I—I see," she stammered, getting her phone as she pretended to do something important. "Thanks for letting me know."

With a man perceptive as Chia Hao, he noticed that she may be feeling awkward with his statement. As he decided to stay quiet for a while, he then got his documents on the side and then continued reading just so he could not make his wife feel uncomfortable.

With them not speaking so much since their marriage until recently, it was indeed awkward between them, especially for Ru Shi since she was forced into the marriage—Chia Hao only obviously infatuated with her.

However, Chia Hao never took advantage of their marriage and still respected her feelings even though it may be present in his eyes from time to time that his wife may have not forgotten her past love.

As Ru Shi thought of this, she peered at him discreetly through her phone and watched how focused he is in doing his work. With her not wanting to get caught, she just opened her novel in her phone, making Chia Hao speak as he still read the documents in his hand.

"Are you not going to sleep yet?"

"No," Ru Shi immediately answered, her answer further surprising the man. "I think I\'m going to wait for you before I turn in for the night—in my room, of course."

Chia Hao actually felt happy in his heart. Even though Ru Shi told him that she is going to use her own room in his house, he liked the thought that Ru Shi was waiting for him to finish work.

It\'s making him feel slightly guilty to say that he might take more time! He\'s torn between wanting to let her rest because this will take a while… or lying to make her stay just so she could be with him while he works.

With his goodness getting the best of him, Chia Hao showed a small smile and replied to his wife\'s statement.

"I\'m going to be here for two hours at least. I think you should go on and rest."

Ru Shi blinked her eyes a few times as she contemplated for a full three seconds. With a shook of her head followed afterward, Chia Hao couldn\'t help but feel his heart beat fast in his chest, wondering why she was acting this way.

"Don\'t worry. I can wait that long."

And with that, she continued reading whatever she was reading on her phone.

With Chia Hao wondering why she was acting this way, he wanted to ask her a question immediately and know what her intentions are if there are any. Or he wanted to ask her why she decided to give him attention!

However, if he initiated more conversation with her, he feared that Ru Shi will now feel awkward around him and will leave him alone, so he just nodded and stayed quiet, actually unable to focus on the documents at hand.

***

The moment the first 30 minutes had passed, this was then the time that Chia Hao was able to focus on his work. With them comfortable in each other\'s silence, it took Chia Hao late to realize that his wife was actually dozing off on the couch\'s rest.

With her cheek leaning on her arm as her phone was already on her lap, Chia Hao suddenly looked at the time and noticed that the two hours had gone by so quickly.

\'Ah… this time already?\'

As he was finally done with his work, he did a stretch and then settled the documents stacked on top of the coffee table. With a smile on his face, he smiled and then made way to Ru Shi, already sitting beside her softly so as to not wake her up.

"Ru Shi…" he said her name softly, actually not wanting to wake her up as she looked peaceful in her sleep. "I\'m done… time to go to sleep."

"Mmm…"

With only a groan heard from her as she slightly furrowed her brows, she continued sleeping, making Chia Hao chuckle as he found her cute this way.

Having no choice, he gently carried her in his arms, Ru Shi still sleeping soundly. With him adjusting her body carefully so as to make her feel comfortable, that\'s when his gaze landed on her beautiful sleeping face, a loving smile tugging the corner of his lips.

"Oh, Ru Shi…"

He mumbled to himself as he stared at her. With him softly placing his lips on top of her forehead, he then closed his eyes for a brief moment, his feelings shown in his simple yet sweet actions.

"Will I ever have your heart?"
