Bab 17: No objections.

"The meal was delicious, thanks a lot for the recommendation". Chen Lihua said obviously satisfied.

"You are welcome. Have you eaten this dish before?", Liu Longwei asked.

Chen Lihua gave a simple reply, "No".

"OK, we can drink the remaining wine while we talk". Liu Longwei said and refilled their wine glasses with wine.

Then he handed Chen Lihua's wine glass to her.

They both took a sip from their wine glasses before putting them on the table.

"I liked the wine as well". Chen Lihua commented.

Liu Longwei smiled and said "Thanks".

Chen Lihua replied "You are welcome".

"I like the sunglasses you wore earlier, you look good on it, I prefer it to the medicated glasses over your eyes now. Don't get me wrong, the medicated glasses look good on you as well", Liu Longwei said truthfully.

Chen Lihua replied, "Thanks for the compliment but to me, it's weird eating with the sunglasses over my eyes, the medicated glasses is more respectable to me".

"OK, there's no harm in it. How do you manage to perform surgeries with your eyes, don't you have troubles?"

"That's not a problem at all", Chen Lihua replied.

"Hopefully it doesn't bother you. I have to apologize to you". Liu Longwei said looking at Chen Lihua in the eyes.

"Why the sudden apology?", Chen Lihua asked.

Liu Longwei replied, "Am sorry for marrying you just like that without us dating".

Hearing the reason for the apology, Chen Lihua felt that Liu Longwei was very reasonable.

Seems like he cares about my feelings.

Thus, she smiled and replied, "There's no problem at all".

"It's not OK at all", Liu Longwei said shaking his head before continuing.

"I will use the period we have before we hold our wedding to make it up to you".

"Your words are well acknowledged by me", Chen Lihua responded parting her chest with her hand.

"When are we holding the wedding?", Chen Lihua inquired.

"It will be held 3 months from now, I will tell our mothers about it when I take you back to the Chen Villa". Liu Longwei said, took a breath and continued.

"I want the wedding to be held as soon as possible and also leave enough time for the planning".

"It seems like you have already planned everything. When did you plan all these?", Chen Lihua questioned.

"I thought about it as we ate our food. Do you have any objections or anything to say?"

Liu Longwei asked, worried that Chen Lihua wouldn't like the arrangements.

Chen Lihua replied him, "No objections. If I have anything to say about it, I will let you know in due time".

"OK", Liu Longwei said.

Having suddenly remembered something, Liu Longwei raised his hands on the table and balanced his jaw on them.

Then he asked Chen Lihua, "I asked you earlier why you didn't want our marriage known to the public and you said it was discussion for later. I guess the time is right for you to answer the question".

Chen Lihua was taken aback by the question because she was trying to remember when she said something about it to him.

Suddenly remembering, she answered him saying, "Oh! about that, I don't have strength for reporters following me around and questioning me. I don't want my quiet life to be disturbed. The public don't even know am the Chen's family daughter and I don't want them to know. Imagine what will happen if the find out about my relationship with the Chen's family and then know that am married to You?".

Chen Lihua's body vibrated and she shakes her head saying, "The tranquility in my life won't exist anymore".

Chen Lihua paused for a while before continuing with her explanation.

"Also, if the public find out about my identity, my work will be at risk because everybody will think I relied on my identity reach where I am today".

"So please don't let them (the public) know, let them find out on their own". Chen Lihua said grabbing Liu Longwei's hands as if her life depended on his answer.

"It's OK, I understand you", Liu Longwei said wondering what kind of person doesn't like being famous. Anyway he has seen that kind of person because, that person is the one holding his hands right now, his wife, 'Liu Lihua'.

Having heard a positive reply from Liu Longwei, Chen Lihua withdrew her hands happily.

Liu Longwei looked at Chen Lihua's hands saying, "When I shaked your hands earlier, and also when you held my hands just now, I noticed that your hand was warm, even when I held you during the time my mother took our pictures close to the car, I felt your warm body through your clothes".

Liu Longwei smiled and teased Chen Lihua, "Seeing that your body is warm, I see that it wouldn't be long before you give me a child".
