Chapter 283 - ONE INDISPUTABLE TRUTH (2/2)

”How about I give you a kick?” Hu Lei countered coldly.

”He did help some.” Zhong Feng chimed in.

Hu Lei looked at Zhong Feng in surprise. She had only been gone for a few hours, and her husband was already speaking up for her annoying senior brother.

Kaito looked at her smugly while Hu Lei had a murderous glare that had become a little more intense.

”What happened?” Zhong Feng chose to ignore the petty squabble.

He kept Hu Lei in his arms because he realised that she had no shoes, and she had a lot of bruises and injuries.

Hu Lei felt guilty, even though the injuries came from her fight with Frank. She wondered if things would have been different if she had sent a distress call immediately after taking control of Dr Brown.

”Ah-Feng…” She said in a whiny voice.

Kaito rolled his eyes as he listened to the woman make a cute sound. He could guess that she had stayed in the boat to have a little fun while they drove themselves crazy looking for her.

Zhong Feng pulled back and looked at the bruising on Hu Lei's cheek and sighed.

”Did you get your showdown?” He asked gently.

Hu Lei nodded emphatically.

”How does the other guy look?” He asked.

”A lot worse. I poked out his eye, at least.” She responded with pride. All things considered, Frank was a tough opponent, and she could not figure out a way to get out of a draw for her.

”Good girl!” Zhong Feng held her in one arm and patted her head softly.

He felt a lot of distress when he saw her with so many bruises on her skin. Her clothes were torn, and there was blood on the once elegant evening gown. However, he could also see a sparkle in her eyes. She seemed satisfied and free of mental burdens.

What could he ask for apart from her happiness?

In the end, he knew that she would come running back to him.

He had come to accept one indisputable truth.
