Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife-Chapter 23 Give me a chance

Around four-thirty in the afternoon, Yan Mei received a message from Lei Zhao.

"Please let's have dinner and watch a movie at night. I will wait for you at the parking lot in an hour."

Yan Mei looked at the text and tapped her fingers on her desk. 'Was he asking her out on a date?'

Yan Mei replied, "Okay" and continued with her work. She wanted to release a new collection of watches for men so she was busily preparing for it.

At exactly five-thirty in the evening she shut down her computer and left her office. Taking her elevator, she came to the parking lot. Yan Mei saw Lei Zhao leaning on the car with his arms crossed across his chest. His brows were knitted together and he seemed to be in deep thought as he looked on his phone in a haze. His figure looked so lonely and dejected as if something was weighing on his shoulder.

This is the first time, Yan Mei has seen him like this. He was always carefree and poking fun at her that she had forgotten that he was also human, and he must be going through some difficulties. She had been selfish in this relationship. She didn't even know anything about her husband. She heaved a sigh and walked towards him.

"Lei Zhao?"

Lei Zhao jolted, hearing Yan Mei's voice behind him and nearly dropped his phone. He just received a call from Ye Xing that they have reached a dead-end for the investigation of his brother's death. He had tried all these years to find out the people behind his brother's murder, even though the police said it was an accident, Lei Zhao knew it was a premeditated murder. He had sworn that he wouldn't rest until he has found his brother's murders but now he had no lead. He felt so useless and helpless.

"Are you okay?" Yan Mei asked softly when she saw his eyes were wary and clouded with sadness. Lei Zhao pulled Yan Mei into his arms and hugged her tightly. "Hmm just let me hold you for a while." Lei Zhao said sheepishly. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

Yan Mei swallowed the lump in her throat and felt her heart pounding for the fast time in five years. She bit her lips and tightly held her purse. She was nervous because of the sudden rush of emotions. A few minutes later, Lei Zhao released her and stepped back.

"What is wrong?" Yan Mei asked as she searched for any emotion or discomfort on his face, unfortunately, Lei Zhao had returned to his usual cheerful self.

"Wifey, I miss you." Lei Zhao's lips curled in a smile as he said. Yan Mei cast her eyes downward and ignored his remarks. Lei Zhao smirked and opened the door of the car for her, bowing slightly like a gentleman. "After you, my lady."

Yan Mei shook her head and smiled helplessly. Fortunately, there was no one at this side of the parking lot to witness this, since it was reserved for Yan Mei.

After Lei Zhao closed the door and got into the driver's seat, he took a gift bag and gave it to Yan Mei. "Wifey, this is for you."

Yan Mei raised her eyebrows and looked at the bag, "What is in it?" Lei Zhao grinned and smiled mysteriously. "You will know when you open it." Yan Mei opened the bag and saw it was a wheat milk drink in a bottle and a straw attached to it.

"Wifey, you worked hard today at work, this is a reward for you." Yan Mei's face softened and she rubbed her temple. 'So, he is giving me a milk drink because I was tired at work? How old am I, ten?' Yan Mei thought but she felt warm in her heart nevertheless.

"Erhm...Thanks."

Lei Zhao grinned and took the drink from her hands. He removed the straw attached to the drink and helped her insert the straw in the drink. "

Here you go." Looking at the look on his face as if he was eager for her to try it, Yan Mei couldn't help but took a sip of the drink. Surprisingly, it was very good.

She nodded and said, "not bad." Lei Zhao smiled and took her left hand, caressing her knuckles with his thumb.

"Wifey, give me a chance okay? I know I might not the first man in your life but I want to be the last one. I want to wake every morning with you by my side, I want to share your good days and bad days with you. We can bully bad guys and even the good guys together if you want. As long as you're happy. I know I might not be madly in love with you yet, but I know I feel something for you, so give me a chance okay? Let us make this marriage work."

Yan Mei stiffened when she heard him, her eyes met his, and she saw her reflection in his eyes. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She knows maybe if she hadn't met Wang Lu and gotten hurt she would've already fallen for Lei Zhao.

But the pain of having your whole world crumble down because of love had been too much for her to bear. Now she is scared, but she knew that even though love is a scam, it is a beautiful scam.

She wants to be happy again, at least she had promised her daughter to be happy and that guy so she had to keep her promise. Five years is enough time to grieve, now she will move on.

"I…can't promise...to fall in love with you but I will..give you a chance so-"

In an instant, Lei Zhao pulled her towards him and clamped his mouth with hers interrupting her. He kissed her with a burning passion. He opened her lips by thrusting his tongue inside her mouth, kissing her so deeply.

He took the drink from her hand and placed it in the cup container in the car. Then he held the back of her head, kissing her hungrily like a starving man. He kissed her throat, her jawlines, and licked the tips of her ear. Yan Mei moaned with pleasure.

His hand went under her shirt and touched her breast, stroking her nipples gently. "Tell me, wifey, are you really giving me a chance?" His lips brushed against her as he spoke.

"Yes..hmm..yes." Yan Mei unbuttoned his shirt and ran her hands across his chest, with their lips locked together in a fiery kiss. They were kissing in a car at the parking lot but they had forgotten where they were.

Yan Mei traced his chest to his abs with her hands and then back to his chest. She pinched the tip of his nipples and then she heard him groaned. A gush of excitement rushed through her when she heard him groaned. Just as she about to unbuckle his belt, Lei Zhao held her hands and pulled away from her. He touched his forehead with hers and took a deep breath trying to calm himself down.

"Wifey, we are still in the parking lot. I don't think you will want your employees to come and see you getting screwed in a car." Lei Zhao said with a smug smile across his face. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

Yan Mei blushed and pulled away from him. She could not believe she had just lost control like that. This guy was really her nemesis. Yan Mei buttoned her shirt with a sullen face as she thought.
