I Deserve a Second Chance

His right hand touched her left upper arm, and then started to slide down to her wrist. "In case you haven't noticed.." he started to say. She had stiffened up, started from his initial touch. "I'm officially pursuing you." +++ All she wanted was a second chance in happiness. She had been divorced for two years now and has forgotten about the idea of finding another man. But destiny is playing a cute joke on her to let her met him. He is successful and powerful and full of distrust on women. Until he met her. After that one fateful encounter, are they destined to be together forever? Is God of happiness finally bestowing this tiny spring water to both of them? +++ ps: I only write happy ending stories. This is 1v1, with a little drama here and there. But those drama only served a purpose to strengthen their relationship. Female lead here is not perfect at all. She is insecure, full of flaws and broken. Male lead is gorgeous and charming as usual. But somehow, they complete each other. There will be no pitiful weak Cinderella stories here, no white lotus and no almighty CEO that rule the country. I am portraying normal average people in society. So if this is not your cup of tea, feel free to move on :) +++ Let's embark on this love boat with me! This book is a work of fiction.

Beyond charming

Li Xiqing went back to the kitchen, took out a wine opener and started to work on the bottle. Yan Yan had been too stressed out and tired from travelling back to the painful past. He was hoping the wine would help her to feel more relaxed, fading away that gruesome memory for some time.

He glanced at the clock on the wall, and mentally calculated the time that she needed to shower. He put on his apron, and started to roam around the kitchen. He also started to prepare the ingredients that he would need: butter, pearl onions, garlic, thyme, olive oil, Himalayan pink salt and fresh cracked peppers. And now, he was ready to start to cook, implementing his expertise in this regard.

When Shao Yan came out of the bedroom, a hint of peppery meat hit her nostrils. She reflexively hunted down the source, and saw Li Xiqing was basting the steak with the fragrant garlic butter.
