Chapter 248 - HER LOVING HUSBAND
When Hu Lei and Zhong Feng came down for breakfast the next morning, Kaito was already feasting on the meal. He had ordered the chef to prepare his favourite foods, which were essentially dinner dishes. There was no single breakfast food.
It was the same thing that had happened the previous evening during supper. He had also somehow coerced the kitchen staff to follow his customised menu.
"You have really made yourself at home." Hu Lei said sarcastically as she took a seat.
"Of course, this is my sister\'s and brother-in-law\'s house. If I do not enjoy myself here, where would I?" He said shamelessly. "Eat some of the pork belly. I must say, your cook is quite exceptional."
Hu Lei was exasperated once more. The man was already acting as the host. She looked cautiously at Zhong Feng to determine if he was already annoyed by the intruder.
While he had accepted the presence of Kaito in the house after she had explained everything, this senior brother was a handful. When he was given an inch like a guest room for the night, he took over the entire house.
And Zhong Feng was not a people person. It was the reason he did not even consider the possibility of staying with his parents at the old home.
Strangely, he did not look annoyed. She wondered if he was ok with the maddening house pest.
The man took a sip of his tea in a graceful manner and looked at her with some amusement in his eyes. He seemed to see through her thoughts.
"You should be careful when going out there today. There are a lot of unknown factors in the city lately." He admonished.
He still wanted to go with her, but the matters at the company were urgent with the upcoming celebration. Moreover, there were a lot of people watching He could only let her handle the retrieval of the other copies of the video.
"Don\'t worry. I will not let a single piece of my hair fall off." She promised with a mock salute.
"Brother-in-law, rest assured that I will protect her." Kaito interrupted the conversation.
"What?" Hu Lei shouted in horror.
She had told Zhong Feng that she would invite Kaito to go with her, but she had really intended to ditch him. He could be helpful, but it was a simple task. Bringing him along was overkill.
"Brother-in-law and I talked, and we agreed. You will be safer if you are with me." Kaito was smug as he looked at Hu Lei.
She turned to look at Zhong Feng. "Ah-Feng…" Her voice was high and whiny, and her pink lips were pouted.
"He is right. It is good to have an extra pair of eyes." He stood up, patted her head and pecked her lips. "And he threatened to follow me to the office if he did not have anything to do."
Hu Lei\'s jaw almost dropped to the floor as she watched her loving husband who had sold her out without thought leave her. Was this the same Ah-Feng that doted on her without limits?
She looked back at Kaito who seemed unaffected by everything going on around him. He kept eating and eating like he had never seen food before. He did even seem to be breathing.
"At this rate, you will choke on the food." Hu Lei looked at him with disgust.
Kaito shrugged. "Then I will ascend to heaven with the sweet taste of this perfectly cured bacon in my mouth."
Hu Lei laughed. "Do you think that you will go to heaven?"
"Why not? I am a good person." The man declared with confidence.
"Leaving aside whether you are a good person or not, don\'t you know gluttony is a sin? If you die of overeating, you will definitely go to a bad, bad place." Hu Lei giggled.
Kaito stopped chewing for a moment. "Do you think that my punishment will be eating when I go to this bad place?"
Hu Lei slapped her forehead in exasperation. It was impossible to play with someone whose mind worked in a twisted manner.
"Never mind that. We need to leave right now. If we hurry up, I can make Ah-Feng a love bento. We can drop it off for him later." Hu Lei laughed with evil intentions.
"Though I like and I am willing to participate in your plans for petty revenge on your husband, we might not make it back on time." Kaito sighed.
"Why?"
"You have gotten sloppy, living like a queen. Song Lili is returning today. Apparently, the commercial she was shooting did not go as expected. The director did not like her, they clashed and she quit."
Hu Lei was shocked. She had indeed become quite sloppy. She had made plans and failed to account for certain things. At least Kaito was proving to be an asset.
"What time is she returning?"
"I would say in an hour or so. She seems anxious to return to Supreme."
