Chapter 29 - Mission (2/2)

”No, boss”. Lei Zhao tapped his finger on the table. The room became pin drop silence. Ye Xing felt every second that went by was torture for him.

”Get up, you're badly injured aren't you?”

Ye Xing looked up in shock at Lei Zhao. He thought he had hidden his wounds from Lei Zhao. He didn't want him to see him as a failure.

”Yes Boss.” Lei Zhao face soften gradually. Ye Xing was like a brother to him. He was the second best person in the team if he got badly hurt then he could only imagine the fate of the rest of the people.

”Go and rest, We will leave tomorrow morning. Call Jun Mo, tell him he will be leaving with us to look at their wounds.”

Jun Mo was the best doctor, Lei Zhao has ever met, if he believes someone can save his teammates then is him.

Ye Xing nodded.

”Okay, Boss.”

Ye Xing and Lei Zhao came downstairs.

Ye Xing respectfully bid farewell to Yan Mei.

”Miss, please I'm leaving.” Ye Xing said as he bowed respectfully at Yan Mei.

Yan Mei raised her brows suspiciously. She can see the high level of respect Ye Xing was giving her. Now she was curious about the job her husband does to have an assistant.

”Okay.” Yan Mei responded briefly.

Ye Xing retreated.

Lei Zhao came to sit beside Yan Mei on the sofa. ”So, what are we watching?”

”We are not watching anything. I on the other, I'm watching How to kill your husband.” Yan Mei tells him, trying to ignore his presence.

”Wifey, you have said you will kill me twice today. Don't tell me, you really want to be a widow at such a tender age.?”

Yan Mei rolled her eyes, looking around the room bored. ”Hmm, if It's the only way to get rid of you why not?”

Lei Zhao chuckled. ”I love you too wifey, no need to say it out loud.” Yan Mei's body stiffened when she heard him. She didn't know how to refute his words. Should she say that she doesn't love him? But that will be weird. So, she decided to ignore him.

The atmosphere became a little awkward, Lei Zhao suddenly cleared his throat.

”Wifey, I will be traveling tomorrow morning. I have to take care of some business.” Yan Mei turned to look at him when she heard him.

”Oh, how long will you take?” Yan Mei asked indifferently, but Lei Zhao still heard the slight difference in her tone.

”Three days, try not to miss me.” Lei Zhao said with a wink. Yan Mei snorted.

”Who will miss you?!” Lei Zhao smiled and pulled her into his arms hugging her tightly as if to engraved how her body feels in his heart.
