Chapter 222 - Hot husband (1/2)

Yan Mei slowly opened her eyes. The moment she did, she rubbed her eyes as the woman noticed the familiar ceiling that she was facing.

'I'm home?'

Yan Mei looked left and right and noticed that she was on their bed. She slowly sat up as she felt slightly cold, the blanket that was covering her falling at the sides.

'Wasn't I with the therapist? How am I home?'

”Oh, you're finally awake?”

Lei Zhao leaned on the doorframe. He crossed his arms in front of his chest as Yan Mei's eyes scanned his body, up and down. Her eyes then blinked a few times when she noticed that Lei Zhao was wearing a pink heart apron over his suit.

'Th-this man... how can he look so dashing even with only wearing an apron over his suit?!'

With her silence, Lei Zhao stepped into the room and sat at the side of the bed. He then put both of his hands on Yan Mei's cheeks as he put soft kisses on her face. He started on the forehead, then on the nose, then both of her cheeks, then lastly on her lips.

”Want to go down and eat, hmm?”

With Lei Zhao's hands still on her cheeks, Yan Mei's eyebrows furrowed as her husband squeezed her cheeks, making her look like a chipmunk.

”Why are we home?” she asked, her words coherent even though Lei Zhao was playing with her cheeks.

”You slept during your session, so I had to bring you home,” he answered, Yan Mei, raising a brow at him.

”Oh?”

”Never mind that.” Now Lei Zhao playfully pinched Yan Mei's nose, a grin appearing on his face. ”You have more time with me as I told Su Bei that you would be having a few days off.”

”What!?”

Yan Mei almost jumped out of their bed in shock. Lei Zhao chuckled as he watched Yan Mei panic, her hand running through her hair as she thought about the upcoming event that would happen.

”But the launch! The launch--”

”Hush now, Wifey.” Lei Zhao interrupted her by planting another kiss on her lips. ”Why do you worry so much about the launch when you have already checked on it a hundred times?”

”But--”

Lei Zhao pouted like a child, slightly rolling his eyes at Yan Mei as he spoke like a boy throwing tantrums at his mother.

”I feel jealous of that launch now, oh... Pay more attention to your hot hubby in a frilly pink apron!”

Yan Mei stared at her husband in disbelief. They just came from the therapist, so how could he act this way before her? Was he worried about her, so he reacted this way, or was there something serious that made him want to satisfy her like a queen?

”Lei Zhao.” Now it was Yan Mei's turn to hold his face with both of her hands. ”What happened? Why are we home, and why did you ask for a few days off?”

With Yan Mei's seriousness, Lei Zhao knew that he couldn't lie to his beloved wife. He sighed as he held her hands, slowly putting it down as he stared straight into her beautiful eyes that reflected his worry.

”The therapist suggested staying away from work, Wifey. Since you-know-who sent you a message and...”

Lei Zhao stopped midway. He knew he could not lie to his wife, but if she knew that someone had sent him a parcel about a video, he would make Yan Mei worry more.
