Chapter 137 - Shy (1/2)

”What did you do to him?” Lei Zhao said as he looked at the grown up man crying like a child.

He seems to be in immense pain and loss in his world. Yan Mei turned to look at Lei Zhao and shrugged.

”Nothing, I just let him taste how it feels to hold your loved one cold and lifeless body in your hands.

Lei Zhao scrunched his face in confusion. The man's cries and wails were just heartbreaking.

He was sitting on the floor as his tears raced down his cheeks. Based on the incoherent words he was saying, Lei Zhao knew he was crying for his daughter.

”He is just hallucinating. He would be fine.”

Yan Mei said when he saw the confused frown on his face.

”Okay. Based on his words, it seems someone is behind all of this.”

Yan Mei nodded, ”Yes. Please be careful from nowards. I can afford to lose you again.”

Yan Mei said softly. Lei Zhao's lips stretched into a helpless smile and nodded.

”Alright. I will.”

Yan Mei nodded and turned to look at Mr. Andre.

”What will you do with him?” Yan Mei asked Lei Zhao quietly.

”Actually nothing. I'm fond of his daughter and I can't bring myself to hurt him. I would have done the same thing if I was in his shoe.”

Yan Mei scoffed when she heard him.”Aren't you supposed to be ruthless as the rumors say?”

Lei Zhao chuckled and ruffled his wife's hair.

”I am. But I don't go around killing innocent people or destroying people because I'm bored. Only those who deserve it.”

Yan Mei frowned but said nothing

.

”Let's go. Mom is waiting for us.” Lei Zhao said.

”Alright ”

When they arrived, Lei Xiao Tong was in the kitchen so Yan Mei went there to help her.

”Mom.” Yan Mei greeted her once she entered.

Lei Xiao Tong smiled affectionately at her.

”How are you?” She asked as she scrutinized Yan Mei. Her brows bumped into a worried frown. She made a mental note to tell his son to take care of his wife.

”I'm fine Mom.”

Lei Xiao Tong nodded,”Do you know how to wrap dumplings?”

Yan Mei blushed and shook her head awkwardly.

Lei Xiao Tong chuckled when she saw her awkwardness.

”Don't worry. I will teach you.”

Yan Mei nodded and went to wash her hands at the sink.

Once she finished, Lei Xiao Tong started teaching her.

Since it was her first time, Yan Mei was clumsy and couldn't do it. But Lei Xiao Tong just laughed and taught her patiently.

After some minutes, Yan Mei gradually was able to wrap one.

Lei Xiao Tong looked at the ugly dumpling and her lips twitched but she just complimented Yan Mei.

”My daughter-in-law is really smart eh.”

Yan Mei looked at the ugly dumpling and she blushed in embarrassment at the compliment.

She knew Lei Xiao Tong didn't want her to feel bad.

”So how is work? I know because of Lei Zhao you must have been worried.”

Lei Xiao Tong asked as Yan Mei started wrapping another dumpling by herself.
