Chapter 242 - ANOTHER WIFE (1/2)

Hu Lei planned to return to Supreme City as early as possible, especially after hearing the news from Kaito. However, she had forgotten how old people could drag things on. It was obvious that her grandfather was trying to prolong their goodbye.

Therefore, by the time she and Shui returned to the city, it was already quite late. ​​

She had Shui drop her off at the Westend place and let him return to his home. Luckily, she did not have a lot of luggage, just her backpack. When she entered her house, she did not see the person, but she could smell a delicious aroma from the kitchen.

She threw the bag on the floor and rushed to the kitchen. As she entered, Zhong Feng turned to face her. Without speaking a word, she leapt into his arms, not caring about the spatula in his hands. Immediately, he dropped it and caught her in his strong arms.

Hu Lei clung so tightly to him, with both her arms and legs around him, unwilling to let go. Zhong Feng supported while also holding her tightly.

In that moment, he felt like he could breathe again.

Long moments passed before Hu Lei was willing to release the man.

”You have become lighter.” Zhong Feng said with dissatisfaction as Hu Lei's feet touched the floor.

Hu Lei giggled. It seemed that Ah-Feng had become like an old woman, chiding her for becoming thinner. She had actually not lost much weight, but she had been working out daily while in Herb Town. So, she perhaps felt lighter.

”The word you are looking for is more beautiful.” She pouted.

Zhong Feng smiled from the depth of his soul for the first time in months. ”Of course, my wife is the most beautiful. She glows brighter than the stars.”

Hu Lei huffed with pride like a kitten with her tail in the air. ”At least you understand this much. What about you? You look like you haven't slept for weeks.”

She lifted her hand and touched the handsome face which had clear marks of fatigue. Moreover, he truly looked like he had lost weight.

Zhong Feng lifted a hand to rub the top of Hu Lei's head.

”You can take care of me now that you are back.”
