His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 99 - THE GREATEST MISTAKE

Hu Lei had never thought about having a sibling. It had seemed impossible after her parents' less-than-amicable divorce. In addition, her father had not had any dalliances while they were on the road. As long as he had his medical projects, he would be content.

Still, she felt that it was truly sad. If this boy was Hu Ming's child, he had already lost his chance to know him. Her eyes stung a little at the thought of her father. She decided that she would get to know the boy for both of them. She did not hesitate before pushing the door to the media room open.

She looked back and saw the encouraging look on Zhong Feng's face. She nodded and stepped into the room. If she waited for too long to meet this potential sibling, she might have regrets. More importantly, she trusted Zhong Feng. If he thought that the boy was worth the efforts he had, without a doubt, invested in him, he had to be something special.

Naturally, she could not approach him and declare that she was his long-lost sister. That strategy would backfire because they did not know one another. She also did not want to be overly enthusiastic because there were no familial feelings at the moment.

Fortunately, Hu Lei was a person who could approach just about anyone to achieve her purposes. From national leaders to rebel members of the society, no one had been too difficult for her to handle. A young boy did not even need a special plan.

Hu Lei walked calmly into the media room and plopped down carelessly on one of the comfortable seats. It seemed that the Zhong family had splurged on everything in this hospital. She looked at the boy with a discerning eye. Her heart felt a little shaken.

Murong Fai was not the spitting image of Hu Ming. However, he was definitely his son. His face was delicate and small much like hers. This was a characteristic that they had inherited from their mother. However, from what she could see of his eyes, they were like Hu Ming's.

Not only was the shape of the eyes and general appearance similar. The orbs also seemed to sparkle as he watched the boring medical documentary on the TV. Hu Lei felt for a moment as if her father's spirit had been revived through this child.

"This is boring." She spoke suddenly, startling the boy.

Murong Fai, who had been ignoring the newcomer, turned his face towards her. He looked at the woman in the room and tilted his head in confusion. He knew that he had never seen this person before in his life. However, he felt that she was incredibly familiar.

"Who are you?" He asked straightforwardly.

"I am a patient at the hospital like you." Hu Lei said, folding her arms over her chest. "I want to watch something interesting."

"This documentary is very interesting." The boy countered.

Murong Fai felt that this woman was very strange. He had never seen her in the long periods of time he had stayed in the hospital. Perhaps she came around when he was out of the place. However, he felt that it was unlikely because he had spent a lot of time in the hospital.

"It is just some people opening up heads. How can this compare to a nice idol drama?" Hu Lei challenged throwing a scornful look at the TV.

"Aren't you too old for idol dramas?" The boy asked.

The innocent boy who had never had a lot of interactions with people in his short life committed the greatest mistake one could before a woman. Hu Lei felt that this stab was especially too deep because her greatest years had been stolen from her.

Her yellow eyes blazed in fury, forming little glowing flames. This brat had gone too far. 'With my youthful body, I can obviously pass for a teenager.' She thought in annoyance.

Murong Fai seemed to sense the looming danger to his life. He could not help wondering about the reason for her tangible anger. He felt that he needed to defuse the bomb before she murdered him in cold blood.

"Why is the beautiful sister angry?" He asked in a small voice.

He had always heard that women like to be called beautiful. If this did not work, he could try to outrun her. Like a magical charm, Hu Lei's face became calm and her eyes formed little crescents.

"You think calling me beautiful is enough?" She asked.

"But… alright, you can watch your idol drama." The boy said in resignation.

He felt that this woman was quite difficult to deal with. He knew in his heart by some instinct that she was not a bad person, but she also inspired fear in him. So, he could only surrender before her.

"That is more like it." She nodded in satisfaction. "Why are you watching this type of documentary anyway?"

Murong Fai became excited at the question. His eyes turned into stars as he looked fervently at Hu Lei.

"I want to be a doctor." He declared.

"Even a small person like you can be a doctor?" Hu Lei asked with a derisive snort.

"Look at who is talking!" he responded with anger. "I am only fifteen, and I am almost as tall as you."

Murong Fai was sensitive about his height. He was shorter than every other boy he had met in his age group. He was even shorter than most girls. This coupled with the pretty little face did not help in building the manly reputation he wanted. So, he always lost his temper when anyone mentioned his height.

"A short girl like me is incredibly cute." Hu Lei said, turning her nose up in the air.

"I will grow taller once I get better." Murong Fai declared.

Hu Lei laughed behind her hand while thinking 'don't hold your breath.' It seemed that there was some kind of recessive gene which had appeared through the combination of Lu Liang's and Hu Ming's genes. Those two were really never meant to be together.

"There is nothing wrong with being an adorable young man these days. Times have changed unlike when this great aunt was younger." Hu Lei said while snickering.

Murong Fai felt that this woman was incredibly hateful. However, he knew that he had been thoroughly defeated.
