Chapter 222 Hot husband
Yan Mei slowly opened her eyes. The moment she did, she rubbed her eyes as the woman noticed the familiar ceiling that she was facing.
'I'm home?'
Yan Mei looked left and right and noticed that she was on their bed. She slowly sat up as she felt slightly cold, the blanket that was covering her falling at the sides.
'Wasn't I with the therapist? How am I home?'
"Oh, you're finally awake?"
Lei Zhao leaned on the doorframe. He crossed his arms in front of his chest as Yan Mei's eyes scanned his body, up and down. Her eyes then blinked a few times when she noticed that Lei Zhao was wearing a pink heart apron over his suit.
'Th-this man... how can he look so dashing even with only wearing an apron over his suit?!'
With her silence, Lei Zhao stepped into the room and sat at the side of the bed. He then put both of his hands on Yan Mei's cheeks as he put soft kisses on her face. He started on the forehead, then on the nose, then both of her cheeks, then lastly on her lips.
"Want to go down and eat, hmm?"
With Lei Zhao's hands still on her cheeks, Yan Mei's eyebrows furrowed as her husband squeezed her cheeks, making her look like a chipmunk.
"Why are we home?" she asked, her words coherent even though Lei Zhao was playing with her cheeks.
"You slept during your session, so I had to bring you home," he answered, Yan Mei, raising a brow at him.
"Oh?"
"Never mind that." Now Lei Zhao playfully pinched Yan Mei's nose, a grin appearing on his face. "You have more time with me as I told Su Bei that you would be having a few days off."
"What!?"
Yan Mei almost jumped out of their bed in shock. Lei Zhao chuckled as he watched Yan Mei panic, her hand running through her hair as she thought about the upcoming event that would happen.
"But the launch! The launch--"
"Hush now, Wifey." Lei Zhao interrupted her by planting another kiss on her lips. "Why do you worry so much about the launch when you have already checked on it a hundred times?"
"But--"
Lei Zhao pouted like a child, slightly rolling his eyes at Yan Mei as he spoke like a boy throwing tantrums at his mother.
"I feel jealous of that launch now, oh... Pay more attention to your hot hubby in a frilly pink apron!"
Yan Mei stared at her husband in disbelief. They just came from the therapist, so how could he act this way before her? Was he worried about her, so he reacted this way, or was there something serious that made him want to satisfy her like a queen?
"Lei Zhao." Now it was Yan Mei's turn to hold his face with both of her hands. "What happened? Why are we home, and why did you ask for a few days off?"
With Yan Mei's seriousness, Lei Zhao knew that he couldn't lie to his beloved wife. He sighed as he held her hands, slowly putting it down as he stared straight into her beautiful eyes that reflected his worry.
"The therapist suggested staying away from work, Wifey. Since you-know-who sent you a message and..."
Lei Zhao stopped midway. He knew he could not lie to his wife, but if she knew that someone had sent him a parcel about a video, he would make Yan Mei worry more.
Right here and then, it made him decide to only open about the parcel once Yan Mei opens about more details on her abduction.
"And?"
With Yan Mei's voice snapping Lei Zhao out of his thoughts, he gave his wife a small smile as he tucked some of her hair behind her ear.
"Since you-know-who sent you a message, who knows when he might visit your office unannounced. So, the therapist suggested that we stay out of work for a while until we have leads about him."
Yan Mei stayed silent for a few seconds as she slowly nodded at what Lei Zhao had said. The man internally sighed as he was successful in hiding the fact of the parcel from Yan Mei, but of course, as he promised to himself, he would have to tell her sooner or later once the timing is right.
"Come on down with me now, Wifey," Lei Zhao said, lightening up the mood as he got Yan Mei's hands in his. "I have cooked something delicious for us, and I want you to try it."
Hearing the playful tone in his voice, Yan Mei slightly giggled as she nodded. Lei Zhao now grinned ear to ear as he stood up, helping Yan Mei up as the two of them now walked down the stairs on their way to the dining room.
"So, what did you make?" Yan Mei asked, Lei Zhao swaying left and right as he felt excited to show his wife what he made.
The moment they stepped into the dining room, Yan Mei's eyes slightly widened. On the dining table, she saw a fried pork cutlet with ketchup on top of it, shaped into a heart. Caesar salad was also at the side and, a homemade blueberry cheesecake was also in the middle of the table.
Yan Mei then looked at her husband who was standing beside her as he beamed at her like he had won in a raffle. He then extended his arms towards the table like he was a waiter, making Yan Mei laugh as she walked towards her seat to sit down.
"My, you did this while I was sleeping?" She then narrowed her eyes, "Or did you order this at the last minute before you checked up on me?"
"No!" Lei Zhao scoffed, feigning pain as he held his chest. "How could you think that I did not do this or my beloved Wifey?"
Yan Mei laughed as she shook her head. She actually believed that Lei Zhao had done this for her. She just wanted to tease him since it was sweet of him to make this much effort just for her.
Lei Zhao scooted over as he got the fork and knife beside her plate. He then proceeded to slice her pork cutlet into small pieces, giving her one bite as well to make her try it.
"This is just the beginning of our wonderful day off from work," Lei Zhao said, Yan Mei, continuing chewing on her food. "Tomorrow, we will go out, and I would surprise you!"
Hearing this, Yan Mei laughed.
"How will I be surprised if you told me that you will surprise me?"
"Oh, stop being witty," Lei Zhao said, feeding Yan Mei with another piece of pork. "If you tease me, I'll surprise you by canceling our outing."
"You wouldn't" Yan Mei retorted as she pouted at him.
Lei Zhao ruffled her hair and smiled.
"Let's eat."
"Will you feed me?" Yan Mei blinked as she gave Lei Zhao an innocent look.
Lei Zhao nodded and sigh
"Alright."
With that, there was jovial laughter sounding in the dining room. Yan Mei and Lei Zhao continued being lovey-dovey as they ate their meals to their heart's content.
