228 LITTLE MIND GAMES (2/2)
In a state of shock, Lu Liang sputtered for a while without saying anything.
”She might still have some attachment to you, but I have no reservations about destroying you.”
Zhong Feng frowned. ”What exactly did you say?” His voice was hostile. Hu Lei already knew a lot of her father's shortcomings, so it had to be something major.
”That she was a designer baby.” She blurted out.
Zhong Feng turned and started to walk back to his car.
”Young Master Zhong, what is your relationship with Hu Lei?” She could not hold back her curiosity even though she was afraid.
The man looked at her. ”She is my wife. Remember that the next time you think about playing your little mind games.”
With that, he got into the car and drove off.
Lu Liang looked at the taillights for a while before locking the gate. She felt bitterness in her heart. Zhong Feng, the richest and most powerful young man in Supreme City, was her son-in-law. But it seemed that he already hated her.
For a moment, she imagined that she had a good relationship with her daughter. If that were the case, Murong Cheng would not have dared to carry out his little tricks on account of the Zhong family. And even if he had, no one would have taken her lightly because she would still have Zhong Feng's support.
She had always felt that Hu Lei had support from someone important in Supreme City. After meeting Qi Han, she had thought that he was the one. She could not have imagined that it would have been Zhong Feng. She realised that it was the reason that he had helped Fai.
Unfortunately, like her daughter, he hated her. She sighed. It was too late for regrets.
In his car, Zhong Feng gripped the steering wheel tightly in his hands as he tried to think about where Hu Lei could have gone. In her state and with her skills, she could be anywhere, and he would have no way of finding her.
He felt his heart crack at the thought of her leaving him again without a clue of how to find her. His foot subconsciously stepped on the brake pedal.
Mmmh… A clue…
He remembered their argument on the night of the day they registered their marriage. He had asked her never to leave him.
”I will not leave you, Ah-Feng. And if a day comes when I do, I will make sure to leave breadcrumbs so that you will always find me.”
He remembered that promise.
His eyes cleared up. She would not leave just like that. He only needed to find the breadcrumbs that she had left. He accelerated and headed to Westend.
