Chapter 265 - ALWAYS MY EMPEROR (2/2)

”I did not know that Zhong Mian was bringing Kong Ou.” Hu Lei commented.

Zhong Feng frowned. ”Neither did I.”

”It just seems like something that you would mention after a long car ride, a long lunch and a session of multiple spa treatments.” She added.

Zhong Feng nodded.

”Why do you think that she did not say anything?” Hu Lei asked.

”I am not sure.” He responded.

”Come on.” Hu Lei whɨnėd a little.

”Perhaps she did not want anyone to discourage her from bringing him.” Zhong Feng said.

Zhong Feng could guess his sister's motives. She wanted to take her relationship to the public, but she did not want to receive too much attention and subsequent criticism.

She had chosen the banquet as her revelation scene, not because she wanted more attention. She knew that his appearance with Hu Lei and his revelation of his marriage would take the heat off of her.

Zhong Mian had always been a person with deep thoughts or else, she would not have been able to take control of Zhong Industries.

It was unfortunate that she did not know that some skills should not be used on family members.

If she had revealed her plan instead of doing things in a shady way, she would have had the support of her family. At the very least, Zhong Feng and Hu Lei would not have minded being shields because it did not affect them.

However, no one liked to feel used and manipulated.

Hu Lei also understood the matter after thinking about it for a moment.

”Shall we join the festivities, my prince?” She said to cheer up Zhong Feng who had become a little sullen.

The man smiled. ”I thought that I was your emperor.”

Hu Lei leaned in and kissed him lightly on his lips. ”You are always my emperor. But you are also my senior sect brother, my hero and my prince.”

Zhong Feng felt like he was walking on air as he stepped out of the vehicle with his cute little wife at his side.
