Chapter 482 - LITTLE ANGEL (1/2)

Zhong Feng and Hu Lei returned to Supreme City without incident. The trip had taken an unexpected turn, but the outcome was not bad. Well, at least on the surface, things seemed to be going better than expected.

As their car left the airport, Hu Lei looked at Zhong Feng with a worried expression.

”What do you think he wants?” Hu Lei asked.

The more she thought about the situation, the less she believed that Yuan Haoran was helping them merely because he found her interesting. She also did not think the man was doing it out of the goodness of his heart. Her doubts were reinforced after seeing that girl in the strange pod.

Yuan Haoran did not seem like someone who would do something like inviting strangers to his house. Also, he had agreed to help them a little too quickly. Moreover, she had a strange feeling that he had even anticipated her movements at night.

It was likely that he wanted her to see the young woman he was keeping in the basement of his home. However, she could not figure out his motives. Despite her thoughts, she could not deny that his emotions concerning the young woman were real.

At least, that was how it seemed.

”I am also not sure.” Zhong Feng frowned. ”It is indeed strange that he was so willing to offer help. If he is the same person who has kept control over the International Health Alliance, he cannot be underestimated.”

The two of them were silent as they tried to think about Yuan Haoran's motives. Unfortunately, neither of them could decipher the mind of the strange man. They could only hope that his plans did not involve a nefarious plot that could harm them.

Their arrival in Azure Woods allowed them to take a breath of relief. Even though travelling was fun, their trip was not a simple one. Of course, they were happy to come back without experiencing a dangerous situation.

The once quiet house was a little warmer with Housekeeper Li taking charge. He welcomed them at the door with a wide smile.

”How is Xiao Bao?” Hu Lei asked enthusiastically.

She had missed her little infant angel. She did not experience a lot of separation anxiety, but she could not wait to see the cutie. However, knowing that baby, he would probably look at her with disdain and snuggle up to Zhong Feng.

She turned to glare at her husband with a poorly hidden grudge in her eyes.

Zhong Feng knew what she was thinking and patted her head in comfort. He could not help that Wang Lei was a little more attached to him. A good start for improving mother-son relations would probably be calling the baby by his proper name instead of Xiao Bao.

”Xiao Bao is as perfect as always. The nanny and the doctor have been on-site the entire time, so there is no need to worry. And Akira has been watching Xiao Bao, although she seems to be in a bit of a low mood.” Housekeeper Li reported.

Hu Lei smiled. At least, they had good news for Akira. Of course, it would be better to wait until they confirmed the promise made by Yuan Haoran before saying anything. However, Akira probably needed hope more than anything.

”Thank you. Can you have the chef prepare an early dinner today?” Hu Lei said.
