His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy-Chapter 620

Chapter 620: ULTERIOR MOTIVES

In Azure Woods, Hu Lei was sitting in the living room while holding an obedient Wang Lei. She was looking at her younger brother who had been behaving strangely since he came back from school. His continuous fidgeting was getting on her nerves.

“If you have something to say, say it. Or go to your room and talk to yourself.” She snapped at Hu Fai.

Hu Fai pouted in a way that almost completely mirrored Hu Lei’s when she made the same expression. However, his face was a little thinner, so his large eyes made him look extremely pitiful after being snapped at by his mean sister.

“For goodness sake, stop behaving like I am a monster.” Hu Lei sighed. “You can just confess whatever you did.”

Hu Fai lowered his head. “I have been talking to Mom.”

Hu Lei froze for a moment, but she recovered quickly. “So?”

“You are not mad?” Hu Fai asked.

.....

“Why would I be mad?” She asked.

“I know you and Mom had a lot of disagreements.” Hu Fai said.

“That has nothing to do with you. And we did not have disagreements. We have just never interacted, so we do not know each other. You do not need to feel guilty about talking to her. I do not hold a grudge against her.” Hu Lei explained.

“Are you sure it is ok?” Hu Fai asked.

“Of course. If you want to rebuild a relationship with her, it is your choice. Just make sure that she does not have ulterior motives.” Hu Lei said.

“I know. It is not like I trust her completely. I was just unable to refuse her goodwill.” Hu Fai said a little forlornly.

“Out of curiosity, how did she find you?” Hu Lei asked.

“She was waiting for me outside of school last month.” Hu Fai replied. “I did not know what to do, so I gave her my number.”

Hu Lei’s eyes narrowed. She really did not mind if Hu Fai talked to Lu Liang. However, she was worried about Hu Fai’s security in Supreme City. For quite a while, he stayed with Zhong Feng’s parents and then, in Herb Town with their grandfather and aunt.

But he moved back to Supreme City because the schools were better. Plus, he wanted to live with Hu Lei and Zhong Feng. Unfortunately, his relationship with them could make him a target. If Lu Liang could gain access to him easily, someone else more nefarious might find him.

She needed to review everything and ensure that he was always protected. Otherwise, what happened to her might happen to him. She could not take any chances with her brother’s safety.

When she was going to inquire a little more about Hu Fai’s interaction with Lu Liang, Zhong Feng entered the room.

“Oh, did the conference call finish already?” Hu Lei asked.

Zhong Feng walked to her and patted her head and then, Wang Lei. “No, I just received some news about Shun. He is on the loose.”

Hu Lei snorted with repressed laughter. “Are you saying that Shun ran away from home?”

“More or less. He actually ran away while out with Wang Che.” Zhong Feng was also a little amused. “But I have asked someone to find him, pick him up and bring him over.”

“Oh, it seems like there is some trouble brewing.” Hu Lei stood up. “Xiao Fai, get Wang Lei ready for bed. Then, go to sleep.”

She kissed the little fluffy child before giving him to Hu Fai.

“We will discuss your matter a little more tomorrow. I want to know what else you are keeping from your big sister.” Hu Lei added with bravado.

Hu Fai nodded meekly even though he thought that the authoritative sister act was amusing. But again, he was also low-key afraid of Hu Lei. He once saw her boxing in the gym. She could be a little scary when she wanted.

“What exactly happened? Everything seemed fine last week.” Hu Lei said.

“I am also not sure. Wang Che was not forthcoming.” Zhong Feng responded.

“I bet Shun realised that Wang Che is full of cr*p.” Hu Lei said.

“Do not use bad words.” Zhong Feng said automatically.

Hu Lei stuck out her tongue. “That is not a bad word.”

“You are getting naughtier. I will need to punish you.” Zhong Feng pulled Hu Lei in for a kiss.

When Hu Lei could breathe again, she looked at Zhong Feng with a seductive smile. “Is that the punishment? I might need to say a few more bad words.”

“Behave.” Zhong Feng pushed her away. “Wait for Shun and deal with him. The conference call is still going on.”

Hu Lei nodded and immediately went to find someone to prepare a room for Shun. In the past, Azure Woods was a haven for her and Zhong Feng. No one even knew where they lived. Now, they experienced more traffic than a lot of hotels.

But again, it was a blessing in itself to have friends and family popping in and out. And to think that a few years before she was a lone wolf without a home. Her life had truly changed in a wonderful way.

About half an hour later, one of Zhong Feng’s men brought Shun into the house. His face was sullen as he dragged his feet into the room. Hu Lei did not know how to comfort the grown man who was behaving like a child.

After she dismissed the man who drove Shun, Hu Lei called someone to bring food to Shun.

“Aren’t you going to ask me what happened?” Shun asked as he started eating. He had skipped dinner, so he was positively starving.

“Are you going to tell me the truth?” Hu Lei asked with a smile.

Shun froze for a moment before he continued eating. When he finished, he looked at Hu Lei with an unusually earnest expression.

“You are very strong, right?” Shun asked.

Hu Lei lifted an eyebrow before answering modestly. “Perhaps.”

“I want to learn how to fight,” Shun said. “Can you teach me?”
