His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy-Chapter 567
Chapter 567: SQUEEZE YOU DRY
Hu Lei did not know the calculating mind of Chu Ling. If she did, she would laugh at the pipe dreams of the old woman. Moreover, she was already a little annoyed with her in-laws for their unpleasantness covered in polite questions.
Therefore, she did not want them to enjoy the precious grace of her cute baby.
“I am going to freshen up. If you would like the chef to prepare something for you for dinner, you can inform Housekeeper Li.” Hu Lei said.
Then, Hu Lei looked sharply at Wang Lei. Wang Lei turned to look at his mother directly as if he had a homing beacon. His dull eyes seemed to get a sharp glint that looked a lot like his mother’s when she was on the hunt.
A short moment passed before Hu Lei pulled Zhong Feng’s hand so that he could follow her. As soon as they were out of the living room, Wang Lei burst out crying. It was a loud and ear-piercing cry that threatened to bring down the house.
Hu Lei’s lips quirked into a smile as she felt vindicated.
“Did you do something to make Wang Lei cry?” Zhong Feng asked.
.....
“How can you be so suspicious?” Hu Lei said with a careless smile. “Are you suggesting that I somehow made Wang Lei cry to take revenge on our dearest Mother and Father? I am not such a petty person.”
“...yes, you are.” Zhong Feng lifted his hand and patted the fluffy head.
“You wound me, husband. Even if I could influence my cute baby’s mind to some extent, I would never use such powers for evil. That would be unethical. Of course, if my baby wanted to carry out revenge on behalf of his loving mother and protect her hurt heart, I would not stand in the way.” Hu Lei said as they entered the bedroom.
Zhong Feng looked at Hu Lei for a long moment. The cute face coupled with the little tiger smile as she smiled cheekily did not betray anything. He could not tell if she had actually done something to make Zhong Wang Lei cry.
But that was the beauty of his little wife. He never knew what he would discover at each moment of their lives. He was always ready for surprises.
“All jokes aside, are you really ok with me and Wang Lei not being around?” Hu Lei asked, facing Ah-Feng.
“Do not be silly. I will be there to visit as often as I can. I will support you, whatever you decide to do.” Zhong Feng said.
“You are so nice to me. Aren’t you afraid that I will take advantage of you and squeeze you dry?” Hu Lei was a little dissatisfied with the way Zhong Feng was indulging her without limits. She would become even worse.
“You can take advantage of me and squeeze me dry.” Zhong Feng replied with a soft laugh.
It took a moment before Hu Lei noticed the dirty undertone of the words. Ah-Feng was teasing her and being naughty. She smacked his arm as her face became red. Despite everything, she could still be completely bashful.
“You are so bad. I am trying to have a serious conversation here.” She said.
“Alright, alright. What do you want to say?” He asked.
“I received word that Akira is doing well. The plan will probably begin soon.” Hu Lei said with something undecipherable in her eyes.
“Are you sure about this?” Zhong Feng asked.
Hu Lei nodded. “It is not a bad thing to help Yuan Haoran destroy Martial Island. It is not like he wants to kill the people there indiscriminately. You have already discovered how rotten to the core the power structure there has become.”
“Yuan Haoran does not seem like the kind of person who would do something just for the sake of a revolution. I am afraid that he has other intentions.” Zhong Feng frowned.
“I suspect that he and his girlfriend were probably victims of that system. I have never seen people so thoroughly ravaged by radiation. Even though they do not have obvious symptoms, they are barely alive. So, it is probably a revenge mission.” Hu Lei said with a flicker of darkness in her eyes.
“Maybe he is also looking for a chance of salvation. He might want to do something good before he leaves the world.” Zhong Feng said.
Hu Lei looked up and giggled. “I never thought the day would come when you speak up for Yuan Haoran.”
“I am merely speculating.” Zhong Feng did not show signs of being exposed.
“Fine, fine. Anyway, I think that he will probably give me the information about the first target soon. I will be in Herb Town, so it will be easy to remain under the radar.” Hu Lei said.
“Do you have concerns about being watched or followed?” Zhong Feng was instantly terrified by the thought.
Hu Lei rolled her eyes. “I have always remained under the radar because I am cautious. I never leave anything to chance. If I remain in Supreme City, the countless gossipers will be constantly theorising about where I am and what I am doing.”
“What gossipers?” Zhong Feng flicked her head. “You hardly ever leave Azure Woods?”
“Your mother, for one.” Hu Lei giggled.
“What about the Huo family? Won’t they have questions about your absences?” Zhong Feng was worried. Please visit 𝗳𝚛𝐞𝘦wℯ𝚋𝓷o𝚟el. 𝐜𝘰𝒎
“Do not worry. I have it covered. I will tell them that I am collecting the manuscripts of my father’s work to give to Hu Fai as a family heirloom.” Hu Lei was smug as she looked at her husband like a little peacock.
“And what will you say when they ask for the manuscripts? Won’t you be exposed?” He asked with a lifted brow.
“I am not afraid of exposure. I plan to collect my father’s manuscripts for Fai.” Hu Lei said. “Hu Ming was a little paranoid about losing his valuable insights and people forgetting his genius. In addition, to writing papers, he hid his handwritten manuscripts with his comprehensive findings, especially the less orthodox ones.”
“Well, I guess technically I hid them. He had a lot of special requirements for the hiding spots. It was like he was stowing away pirate treasure. Honestly, I think he hoped that his manuscripts would be hidden for centuries. Once they were discovered, they would be treated as historical artefacts.” Hu Lei sighed.
“Why are you planning on taking them out?” Hu Lei said.
“Of course, it is to ensure that his genius serves the world. His son will continue his legacy. He will be happy to know that his work will contribute to his son’s future.” Hu Lei smiled sweetly, but there was something scary about her.
From what Zhong Feng knew about Hu Ming, he was a narcissistic man. He would definitely not be happy to have his artefacts removed and used by others, even his son. Moreover, he never cared about Hu Fai, so why would he want his work to be exploited?
He could guess that his little wife was just being petty again.
But that was good. He liked her pettiness.
“Let’s put all that behind us. I need to take a shower.” Hu Lei said while walking towards the bathroom. Then, she paused at the door and looked back at Zhong Feng.
“If you join me, I might take advantage of you and squeeze you dry.” She said with a lascivious smile.
Zhong Feng did not need a second invitation.
