Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife Chapter 77 – Trust me

Lei Zhao beckoned at her, “Come here.”

Yan Mei walked towards him and sat beside him on the couch. Lei Zhao pulled her closer and wrapped his arms around her shoulder.

“Wifey…..” Yan Mei tensed up at the sound of his voice with deep eyes staring at her.

“You have been behaving weird since I picked you up at the restaurant. Is something wrong?”

Lei Zhao asked maintaining eye contact. Yan Mei tensed up.

“I’m fine. It just—” she trailed off playing with her fingers.

Lei Zhao narrowed his eyes, “It just what?”

“I met him today, Lei Zhao.”

Lei Zhao scrunched his eyes together. Why does he have the feeling that he was not going to like what she was about to say?

“Who?”

Yan Mei looked up and gazed into his eyes. Shutting her eyes painfully she uttered the name responsible for her heartaches for years.

“Wang Lu.”

Rage rolled through Lei Zhao. He released her and inspected her closely.

“Wifey, are you okay? Did he hurt you?”

Lei Zhao asked with concern laced in his voice. Yan Mei’s nose became sour and shook her head.

She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at his reaction.

“I’m fine.”

Lei Zhao squinted his eyes as if to find the truth in her eyes. When he saw she was telling the truth he relaxed.

He pulled her closer and planted a kiss on her forehead.

“Did he say anything to you?”

Yan Mei bit her lips and tried to control her quivering her lips.

“He just called names. It’s not like is the first time.” Yan Mei said shrugging.

“It better not be any dirty names or I’m going to beat the shit of that bastared.” Lei Zhao said through gritted teeth.

“Well, he said he feels bad for you because you have to wake up every morning with a sl-”

Yan Mei trailed off and tried to control her emotions.

“A s.l.u.t by your side.”

Anger curled hot and unstoppable in Lei Zhao’s gut, like a blazing inferno that wanted to burn him from inside out. Nostrils flaring, he stood up with his clenched at his sides.

“He dared!” Lei Zhao roared angrily. God, he was burning with rage. That son of a bi*tch dares to insult his wife. He hasn’t even settle accounts with him yet and he is insulting his wife!.

Yan Mei looked at Lei Zhao brewing with anger and felt happiness surged through her.

She was very happy to have met this man. Seeing the desire for revenge in his eyes made her nerves calm down. She knows as long as Lei Zhao is by her side; she would be safe.

She reached out and held his clenched fist.

“Don’t get riled up. He is not worth it.” Yan Mei said softly.

Lei Zhao took a deep to calmed his emotions before turning to look at her.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.”

Yan Mei shook her head, “I’m not scared. Also, I slapped him if it makes you feel better. I can stand his insult but the moment he brought you into this, I lost control.”

Lei Zhao widened his eyes, he didn’t expect that.

He sat down and gently held Yan Mei’s left hand.

“Is your hand okay?” He asked gently with concern evident in his voice.

Yan Mei chuckled when she saw his face contorted with pain.

“I told you not to use your hands on irrelevant people.”

Yan Mei smiled as she tried to blink away the tears that were threatening to fall, away. A single tear dropped from her eyes which caused Lei Zhao to panic.

“Wifey, what’s wrong? Is your hand painful? Let me blow it for you.”

Lei Zhao said as he brought her hand to his lips and blew on it gently. Yan Mei burst into tears by his action.

“Wait, I’m not doing it well? Why are you crying? Do you-”

Yan Mei interrupted him by crushing her lips into his. Lei Zhao stiffened by her reaction but he parted his lips and kissed her back, darting his tongue inside hers. A growl came from the back of his throat as he deepened the kiss. When they broke away after what seems like ages she rested her forehead against his.

Both their breaths were shaky. “Thank you.”

Yan Mei whispered.

“For what?”

Lei Zhao replied huskily. As they stared at each other’s eyes.

“Nothing. Just wanted to thank you.”

Lei Zhao smiled., Silly. Don’t thank me again. It what I should do as your husband.”

Familiar warmth flashed through Yan Mei at his words, easing her pain.

“Hmmm.”

“Wait, how did he know it’s you?” Lei Zhao questioned once they pulled apart.

“You could have denied it’s not you. After all, you have changed your name.”

Yan Mei shook her head, “Even though Wang Lu is just an ordinary rich prosecutor and a businessman to people he actually has a powerful force behind him. Knowing him he wouldn’t leave me alone until he has found out my identity.” Yan Mei explained.

“Also, I don’t want him to know about the baby….”

Lei Zhao nodded in understanding and pulled her closer to him. Yan Mei snuggled further into his side, both of them wrapped together in each other’s embrace.

“Lei Zhao…” Yan Mei called out his name.

“Hmm.”

“I don’t know what he would do but, whatever happens, I hope you trust me. I know you might get tired of waiting for me but…just please hold on a little longer. Don’t ever leave me.”

Lei Zhao chuckled and pinched her cheeks.

“I will never leave you nor will I let that bastard hurt you. Because I love you.”

Yan Mei badly wished she could tell him she loves him too but she was still unsure about her feelings. She wants to wait until she’s ready.

Lei Zhao pressed a kiss on a forehead.

Yan Mei let her worries out of her system for now. She was with her husband and he was the most important person in her life now, and she didn’t want to be separated from him. Never.
