Chapter 64 - Special (1/2)

Yan Mei stretched and opened her eyes. She saw Lei Zhao sitting in a large chair reading the newspaper. She wondered how long he had been sitting there watching her while pretending to read the paper.

A soft smile tugged at the corners of her lips and she pulled the sheets over her head coly. She knew she looked like a total mess but knowing Lei Zhao, he probably didn't care about how she looked.

Lei Zhao hadn't read a single word, for the past one hour he had been staring at her sleep. She was beautiful lying there. He felt satisfied to see her relaxed and not suffering from any pain. She was snoring as she slept, he couldn't wait to teased her about it.

He stood up from his chair and walked towards her. He placed a kissed on the sheet covering her forehead. He pulled down her sheets to reveal sleepy eyes.

”How are you feeling?”

Yan Mei smiled softly, ”I'm good.”

Lei Zhao nodded; climbed into the bed and put his arms around her. Yan Mei felt safe in his arms.

They stayed in each other's arms enjoying the feeling of being closed until Yan Mei's stomach rumbled.

Lei Zhao chuckled, ”are you hungry?”

Yan Mei blushed and nodded.

Lei Zhao ruffled her hair and got up from the bed.

”I will go prepare you breakfast.”

”Okay.”

A few minutes after Lei Zhao left, a sharp pain hit Yan Mei in her stomach. Yan Mei pulled the blankets around her tightly, trying to warm up, while every muscle in her body was protesting with every movement.

She pulled her knee up closer to her chin and started rocking her body slightly. The pain in her stomach was unbearable.

Yan Mei closed her eyes and concentrated on feeling better. She hated this time of the month it made her feel vulnerable and she didn't like feeling that way.

The pain in her stomach worsened.

”Oh.” She m.o.a.ned weakly. Clutching her stomach. She jumped out of the bed and dashed into the bathroom, reaching the toilet just in time. When she finished, she sat weakly on the cold floor, unable to stand up.

Lei Zhao came in twenty minutes later holding a tray containing breakfast. His narrowed his eyes when he didn't see Yan Mei.

”Wifey?” he called out but no one answered.

He placed the tray on a table and walked towards the bathroom, when he reached there, he saw the door was opened with a shaking Yan Mei sitting on the floor.

”Wifey!” he squealed as he hurriedly scooped her in his arms carrying her bridal style. He gently placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

Lei Zhao brows snapped together as he stared at her pale face. He knew it was normal to have pains during this time of the month for a woman but his wife's condition seemed to be worse.

Raking his fingers through his hair, he picked his phone and dialed a number while keeping his eyes on Yan Mei who was m.o.a.ning in pain.

”Hello?” A hoarse voice sounded on the other side of the phone.

Heaving a sigh of relief, ”Grandpa Jun, it's Lei Zhao. Please are you available?” Lei Zhao said politely.

Grandpa Jun was the famous Chinese medicine practitioner in city S. He was really lowkey and rarely appeared in the public's eyes. Fortunately, he was a family friend and one of Lei Zhao's best friends, Jun Mo's grandfather

”Oh it's Little Zhao, what can grandpa do for you?” The old man asked.

”My wife is not feeling well, please can you come and take a look at her?” Lei Zhao queried anxiously.

”Alright send me an address. I will be there in half an hour.”

”Okay, thank you.” Lei Zhao said hanging up the call.
