’Was I snoring? Or is there drool on my face?’ Yan Mei thought since Lei Zhao was staring at her with a weird look on his face. She quickly cupped her mouth to check her cheek, and luckily her chin and cheeks were dry. Fortunately!

An amusement glint passed through Lei Zhao’s eyes when he saw her action. ‘My wife is adorable.’

”Hmm, there is something on your face.” Lei Zhao whispered. Yan Mei widened her eyes and cupped her face,

”Really? What?”

Lei Zhao scratched the back of his neck, “Well, you’re so beautiful that you made me forget my pickup line.” Lei Zhao said with a mischievous smirk on his face.

Yan Mei stared at him for a few seconds.

”Ptff…” She held her stomach as she bust out into laughter. “Lei Zhao, are you trying to hit on me, this early morning. This-?”

Before Yan Mei could tease him any further, Lei Zhao turned her and pressed her under him. He was between her legs, and their faces were inches apart as their eyes locked together.

Yan Mei felt her heart beating erratically, and she froze. Lei Zhao’s hands were on the side of her face as she felt his one hand caressing her earlobe before removing her hair that was sticking on her face.

”Wifey…I was thinking, why didn’t I meet you earlier?” Lei Zhao asked, gazing into her eyes.

”But we are now together, aren’t we?” Yan Mei retorted as she giggled. Her hand held the back of his neck as her lips met his. She kissed him slowly, her tongue teasing him.

Lei Zhao was shocked when the table turned as Yan Mei turned him over and sat on to him. She gave him a coy smile when she saw the disbelief look on her face. Yan Mei kissed the corners of his lips, followed by his nose. Her lips found his earlobe, and she bit it lightly, earning a groan of Lei Zhao.

He cupped her ass and gave a small squeeze. Yan Mei moaned as she grazed the tip of her tongue on his jawline.

She straddled his lap as his hands holding her ass tightened. Lei Zhao’s breath hitched, and he grunted.

”Wifey… stop,” Yan Mei blinked and increased her pace.

”What?” She blinked innocently.

”This.” Lei Zhao said as he raised his hips to meet her center. Yan Mei blushed when she felt his hard on.

”Okay, I will go take a bath.” Yan Mei said as she got off him, but Lei Zhao held her hand, stopping her.

”Wifey…you can’t just leave. You’ve to do something about this.

Lei Zhao said as his eyes flickered with desire.

”Do something about what?” Yan Mei queried with a confused frown marred on her face.

Lei Zhao grabbed her hand and placed it on his hard-on.

”This, or I will get blue balls.” Yan Mei looked at the place her hands were, and she looked up at him.

”I’m going to be late for work. You know I have piles of work waiting for me so later.” Yan Mei said as she sent him a subtle wink.

Lei Zhao grunted in frustration and released her hand. Yan Mei laughed, “Hubby, don’t be dramatic. Blue balls have killed no one yet.”

Yan Mei teased him and strode to the bathroom.

”Wifey…you’re going to pay for this.” Lei Zhao shouted, making Yan Mei chuckled in the bathroom.

——

”What time will you close from work today?” Lei Zhao asked Yan Mei. They were currently sitting inside the car with Lei Zhao driving.

”It depends if I’m able to finish work early; then, I will leave early if not…”

”Don’t overwork.” Lei Zhao said, sternly cutting her off.

”Alright.”

Twenty minutes later, they reached their destination. “We are here.”

Lei Zhao said as he parked the car at the spot reserved for Yan Mei.

”Yes.” Yan Mei said as she held the door handle, ready to open it when Lei Zhao called her, causing her to turn and face him.

”What’s wrong?” Yan Mei asked.

She gasped when he suddenly pulled her towards him and kissed her. Yan Mei’s breath stopped at that moment because she was caught off guard.

Lei Zhao pulled away, and their eyes locked. “I love you.” He whispered, smiling that reached his eyes.

Yan Mei couldn’t help but smile back. “I love you.” She replied and kissed him passionately.

After a while, she pulled back. A faint blush tainted her cheeks. “I-I have to go.”

Lei Zhao nodded and planted a kiss at her forehead. “Take care and call me when you are done. Don’t come home by yourself.”

Yan Mei nodded, “Yes, Sir.”

Lei Zhao chuckled and shook his head helplessly.

Yan Mei got down and walked towards the building. Lei Zhao watched her get inside before driving away. Unbeknownst to them, a terrible storm was brewing. As they say, there is always calm before the storms.

——

Somewhere out there, a man was sitting lazily on a sofa, crossing one long leg elegantly over the other at the knee. He sat with a masculine elegance with his left elbow propped on the armrest while the right hand lazily swirled the wineglass in his hand.

Above his warm brown eyes, his hair had been combed off his face. His face and aura would put men into shame. He had this devilish charm making him enticingly handsome. The man took a sip of the wine and hummed in appreciation. He enjoyed this serene moment since it’s the only time his monsters were calm.

Suddenly, a mobile phone ringing sounded in the quiet room, breaking the tranquil atmosphere. His assistant standing behind him heart leaped into his throat as he trembled inside.

He knew how his Boss hates being disturbed during this time. Dread twisted in the gut as he looked at the caller ID.

”B-Boss… it’s Snake. I-I think he has news.” The assistant stuttered as he said with his voice thick with panic. He knew his Boss was a madman whose cruelty knew no bounds.

The assistant can still remember the scene he watched his Boss skinned one of his men who betrayed his wife’s alive, making the man watch.

At that moment, he concluded his Boss was beyond sick. He was simply mad.

The man waved his hand, and with wobbly legs, the assistant gave him the phone.

”Boss… I have finally found her!” An excited voice sounded at the other side the moment the call was picked up.

The man’s hand holding the wine glass shaken a little.

”What did you say?” He asked coldly, but he could hear the small shake in his voice if one listened closely.

”Yes, Boss. You’re right about letting me monitor Wang Lu all these years. Feng Mei is alive, and she is in city S.”

The man’s heart skipped a beat, and his eyes flickered with an intense emotion difficult to decipher.

”Keep an eye on her and report everything to me.” The man ordered.

”Yes, Boss. That…”

”What?!” The man bellowed, hearing the hesitation in his voice.

”She seems to have gotten married again since I see her always with a man.”

With a crack, thin cracks spread through the wineglass in his hand as his expression became cold. The deadly aura released by his Boss almost froze his secretary.

’What was wrong? Who has pissed his Boss this time?’ He asked himself as he prayed silently for the person.

The man hung up the call, and a murderous smirk spread across his lips. ‘Married?’

He got up and strode slowly towards a room. In the place, there was a large painting on the wall. The painting was a beautiful woman with a soft smile on her face. If Yan Mei was here, she would probably freak out because the woman in the painting was her.

The man picked a knife on the table and threw it at the painting hanging on the wall. The knife hit the woman’s forehead, destroying the beauty of the painting.

An evil smile spread on the man’s lips.

”Feng Mei, Feng Mei. I have finally found you.” The man started laughing manically, sending shivers along the servants’ spine.
