His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 112 - NOT ON INTIMATE TERMS

Zhong Feng looked into Hu Lei's dark and teasing eyes and felt a sense of apprehension. It was not that he did not like this provocative side of her. To him, every part of her was a treasure, and he loved her deep and changing layers.

However, her sudden shift in behaviour filled him with concern.

When he had spoken to Doctor Shui a few days earlier, the medical expert had made it clear that it was not advisable for her to be in distressing or highly emotional situations. Though he had refused to speak about the specifics, he had explained that stress could cause a lot of complications.

Zhong Feng was not an idiot. He could read in between the lines. Furthermore, he understood that it was impossible for Hu Lei not to have a lot of mental scars and burdens from her past. Even though she always acted like nothing could take her down, she was not invincible.

He did not know how he could help her. However, he could at least protect her from external factors which could affect her health.

He looked at the two women in the room with a cold gaze and then turned to Housekeeper Li who had followed him in.

"Who allowed these intruders into the library?" he asked, pulling Hu Lei closer to him.

Housekeeper Li wanted to respond that it was their great mistress. However, he knew his master well enough to understand that that explanation would only inflame him further.

"Don't be angry with that poor man. We wanted to have a little fun." Hu Lei said with a laugh. "But they did pick the lock to the library."

She looked at the two women, who had ugly expressions, with cunning in her eyes.

Zhong Feng heard the words spoken by Hu Lei, but only one thing caught his attention. She had said 'we' and not in that ancient royal sense that she liked. He wanted to look at her deeply form more information, but he resisted the urge. Instead, he petted her head lightly.

Bei Gong Jiu felt as if all her beliefs had been redefined as she watched the scene. Everyone, including her, had thought that President Zhong was incapable of human feelings. He was known as a robot because he spent all of his time working.

Even though she had hoped that she would get into a relationship with Zhong Feng, she had not been thinking a lot of fanciful romantic things. She had thought they would have a professional-like relationship since he did not seem like the type to have emotions.

However, seeing him looking at that hateful and violent woman with doting eyes and pampering her, she realised that he was fully capable of emotions. Unfortunately, he did not show that softness towards her. She felt jealous and angry even though she had no right.

However, she also understood something. If he was not a cruel robot, he could be moved. The only difference between her and the violent woman was their timing. Either way, he would not remain unfeeling once he understood the situation.

"Big brother Feng…" She started with tearful eyes.

This dog only knew a single trick. However, it was a trick that worked very well. Most men could not resist the gentle weeping of a woman. Unfortunately, Zhong Feng had only ever cared about one unique girl's tears. A girl who now seemed ready to leap out and kill someone…

He smiled at her scowling face and drew her closer to his body.

"It seems that the Bei Gong clan needs a reminder that they are not on intimate terms with the Zhong family." He spoke in an apathetic voice.

Bei Gong Jiu did not dare speak another word. She knew that this time, she had made a grave mistake. She had even implicated her family. She thought about any possibilities for turning the situation around. However, even a person like her realised that this man did not have any soft feelings towards women. Her fool proof trick would not work.

She looked at Hu Lei in inexplicable frustration. The shameless girl was fondling the cold man's pectorals with a small hand in apparent fascination. She seemed to have forgotten about the rest of the people in the room.

Why could it not be her who tamed this powerful man? She decided to make one last effort to avoid leaving a bad impression on him. She knew that she could not enter his eyes. However, she was not willing to give up everything just like that. If an unrefined and violent woman could do it, why couldn't she?

"Mr Zhong, I know I was in the wrong. But I was so excited about being here that I got ahead of myself. I know you are a magnanimous person, and you can overlook the mistake of a woman who was just happy to be in her idol's home." She said straightening her back.

With these words, he had no choice but show grace, or he would look like a petty person.

If Zhong Feng liked a brazen woman, it was not too difficult to take up the role. She had always thought that he would favour the soft gentle type as most powerful men did. But it seemed that he preferred the assertive types.

Zhong Feng did not respond. He only motioned with his hands and Housekeeper Li called in some men dressed in black into the library. Before the two women could protest, they were captured and taken out of the room.

Bei Gong Jiu protested and called out something about her phone, but Hu Lei pretended not to hear anything. She just held on to Zhong Feng's arm like an octopus and smiled shamelessly at him. Once the room was empty, he looked at her sternly.

"You should not be getting into fights. You just came back from the hospital." He rebuked softly.

"I didn't start the fight. I only got involved when things got interesting." She subtly changed the subject. "Can you believe the nerve of those women? That woman even dared to call you big brother." She started getting angry once again.

She took a deep breath and then stepped away from Zhong Feng. She began looking around the library, as if she was checking whether they had stolen anything. She knew nothing had been taken, but she had seen those coveting glances.

"Who started the fight?" Zhong Feng asked casually.

Hu Lei stopped walking and became stiff and tense.

"She did." She said in a low voice.

Zhong Feng frowned at the response. Though the answer was vague, he understood the meaning behind the words. He thought for a moment about his next action. He was uncertain of what he should do because he was afraid of causing harm to her.

Still he wanted to know more about her. However, before he could speak, Hu Lei started to fall to the ground in a faint without warning. In a split second, he caught the unconscious girl in his arms.
