After giving Lu Tian a new change of clothes, Yue Ling also stepped out to change since the areas on her clothes that were caught by the rain was damper than she had thought.

The door to the adjoining lavatory in her office opens and Lu Tian's tall figure steps out. In one hand was his black suit and in the other was his coat in the same color.

He couldn't help but frown and glance down at the outfit his wife had picked out for him.

A slightly loose knitted cardigan in a tan color worn over a plain white t-shirt with black trousers that showed his ankles. As for the shoes, she had given him a pair of oxfords similar to his own and some no-show socks.

The outfit together was remarkably simple, yet stylish, but the reason for his frown is because this is something he wouldn't usually wear on his own. Even the thought of buying something like this never occurred to him.

Then again, remembering that his wife had personally chose the clothes for him, he couldn't complain.

"Oh, you're done."

The door to the room opens and Yue Ling's voice sounds in surprise as she enters. She inspects his figure from head to toe and walks over to him.

She was now wearing a loose knitted dress that reach down to above her slender ankles. Her hair that was tied up before was not put into a low bun at the back of her nape.

"Wow, I was skeptical at first, but you actually look good in these clothes."

Her lit up seeing him look like a different person. He still gave off a cold aura, but to her, he looked more laid back and comfortable.

Taking his old clothes and coat from him, she walks over to one of the couches as she had placed a bag there to pack his clothes.

"I'll have these washed here, then bring them home later."

Lu Tian's eyes followed her every move. However, thinking back to her words, he frowns deeply and raise both his arms as he held them out in front of him.

"Don't you think the sleeves are a little too short?"

"…"

Yue Ling was about to set his old clothes inside the bag when she heard his question. She was flabbergasted and almost stumbled in her stance, but quickly steadies herself in time.

Carefully shoving his clothes in the bag, she turns her head to look at him then to his arms that were out. When she saw what he was referring to, blood rush to her head and she blush like a tomato.

'That's…"

She didn't know what to say and clears her throat awkwardly. No professional designer ever wants to hear someone say they messed up on their measurements.

Walking back to stand in front of him, she place her palms on one of his arms where the cardigan's sleeve is. She was surprise as the cardigan fitted his body structure fine, but the sleeves were on shorter side.

However, she is sure that her measurements were correct as she has never miscalculated. Also, this cardigan is one she designed for her men's line. Unless…

Her cheeks puff out like a chipmunk and she mumbles to herself.

"Who told you to have such long arms?"

She carefully push the sleeve back to reveal a small amount of his forearm. By doing this, no one will know that the sleeves were about two inches too short for his arms.

Lu Tian gaze down at her with lips pressed tightly together from smiling. However, hearing her words that should have been incoherent to his ears, he couldn't hold himself back and smiles with his teeth.

But as quickly as the smile appeared, he changes back to his indifferent demeanor and nod his head.

"Mm, mm. I'm sorry for being born with long arms."

Yue Ling's head doesn't look up at him, but her eyes didn't forget to glance up at him. When she saw his expression full of sarcasm and teasing, she hits the side of his arm.

"Shameless."

Just when her fist was about to touch him, Lu Tian gives a slight grimace in pain and stumbles an inch to the side.

"Ugh, my arm."

"…"

Yue Ling was struck stupefied by his sudden move. Her head looks up at him then down to her fist and finally at him again.

How shameless!

She didn't even hit him, let alone even touch him.

And like the shameless man that he is, Lu Tian uses this chance of her occupied mind to wraps his arms around her and pulls her into his embrace.

He gently strokes the top of her head. His gesture made it seem like he was soothing an angry child, but he was grinning from ear to ear with an understanding expression.

"Mm, mm. It's okay. I shamelessly forgive you. If you want, I will let you hit me every day."

Returning to her senses by his hug, Yue Ling's entire being shook at her inability to comprehend with the situation.

She inhales sharply and pinch the side of his toned waist, but unfortunately, the pinch from her was like a small tickle that sent more love to his heart.

His arms around her tightens and he lower his head to place a soft kiss on her forehead.

"Mm, mm. Pinching is fine too. So long as my Emperor is happy."

"…"

*Knock knock

Yue Ling wanted to retaliate the man for being thick-skinned, but before she could, a knock at the door interrupts them.

She quickly tries to free herself by struggling in his grasp, but the door abruptly opens, and Liu Shan enters the room. He had one arm out with his hand holding onto a takeout bag.

"Boss~! I'm back~ and I brought the food you asked for-or…"

He sang each word in a sing-song voice like he was the star of the century, but when he saw the scene in front of him, his eyes widen like he had been scared witless.

Stunned to the point of no return, but able to force himself to react quickly, he covers his eyes with one hand.

Knowing the layout of Yue Ling's office like the back of his hand, he pace towards the coffee table that separated the two couches and set the takeout bag down.

"Aiya, what a beautiful day it is. The sky is clouded with rain and the birds are singing as they take shelter."

He turns around to leave, but as he was about to pass the couple hugging each other romantically, a gap opens between his middle and ring finger.

One eye quickly locks on the two people before he scoffs and rolled his eyes with attitude.

"Do carry on. This great one has no intentions of being fed dog food AGAIN."

Pretending that Yue Ling and Lu Tian were not there, and he was only talking to himself, he strides out of the room after flicking his imaginary long hair to his back.

"Hmmf."

He doesn't forget to close the door and allow a thick air of silence to return to the room.

Yue Ling: "…"

Lu Tian: "…"
