Hu Lei looked at the awkward Zhong Feng with a criticising scowl. The insane woman had been taken out of the building by the security personnel, so she could finally express her dissatisfaction. It was just as she had thought. He could not defend his beauty. If she had not been there, wouldn"t that shameless woman have jumped on him?These thoughts made her eyes glow a little more as she glared at the immortal-like man with increasing intensity.
"Humph, if you are not in demand, are the rest of us dead?" Though she was still seated, it felt like she was looking down on him.
His lips twitched at her att.i.tude. He could not respond to her because the timing of that unpleasant incident was just too bad. Hu Lei stood up and walked dramatically to him. She hopped on his lap with her legs hanging off the arm of the chair.
She caressed his face lightly with the back of her fingers in an eerie manner. It was like she had turned into an ancient witch who was inspecting merchandise for a blood sacrifice.
"Tell me, how many times have crazy women pounced on you?" She asked with a smile.
Zhong Feng thought back to the earlier when he had launched Etude Technologies. He had kept a low profile and had never revealed his connection to his family. Since he had been home schooled and had not attended public events due to his health, not many people knew of his ident.i.ty.
When his ident.i.ty was revealed, there had been a high influx of women attempting to get close to him. He had seen a lot of tricks during that period. More than once, there had been women who had fallen towards him accidentally on purpose so that he could catch them.
Of course, he would not confess such things to his wife. Even if she was small and looked harmless while resting in his arms, he knew that she could be highly dangerous. He would be a fool to confess to anything that might displease her.
"Mmmh, how many times have you pounced on me?" He responded with a question, his face completely innocent.
Hu Lei pouted at his transparent attempt to escape responsibility. Moreover, there was a veiled insult somewhere in there. She pinched his face vengefully. "This face of yours is too troublesome. Perhaps I should tattoo my name on your forehead. Wait, you might even look a little more alluring."
Before Zhong Feng could reply, his personal phone rang. He looked at Hu Lei"s scrunched up face as she continued inspecting him like a vegetable on sale. He shook his head and picked the call.
"What do you want?" He asked immediately.
"Do I have to want something to call you?" The person on the other head felt wronged.
"If that"s the case, I am hanging up." Zhong Feng did not believe that this call was completely unmotivated.
"Wait, there is something small. How about I treat you and Hu Lei to dinner later?" Shun asked.
"No." He obviously had a beautiful wife. Why would he need to go out with an unrelated person?
"It will be fun. I have finally managed to secure your prize. I have even asked w.a.n.g Che to come and apologise for the delay. The four of us can have a good meal together." Shun did not give up.
"Isn"t this just an additional unrelated person?" Zhong Feng thought with a darkened face. However, when he was about to reject, the phone was s.n.a.t.c.hed from his hand.
"We would love to have dinner with you." Hu Lei responded with the finesse of a cultured lady.
"Sister-in-law, I am so glad you are there, or I would suffer endlessly. Anyway, I will shortly send you the details." Shun felt satisfied with this sister-in-law. It was clear that she had Zhong Feng under her complete control. She would probably not even need the hero to step up in her defence against the evil prince.
Zhong Feng felt gloomy about Hu Lei"s acceptance. He was planning to have a quiet dinner with her and then perhaps consummate their marriage. But his plans were completely ruined.
"Why did you agree to have dinner with these people? You know that w.a.n.g Che has his eye on you." He complained, tightening his hands around her waist.
Hu Lei laughed aloud. "I am a G.o.ddess. Naturally, everyone has their eye on me. But you don"t need to worry about w.a.n.g Che."
Hearing his wife call the man so directly, his face became even darker. "Don"t call him so intimately. I noticed that he was watching you a little too closely at the Secret Realm."
She looked at him flatly and patted his head the way he always did hers before speaking in a superior tone. "As a low EQ person, you naturally can"t see a difference in how people look at each other. His interest is definitely not personal. I am actually a little curious about his reasons."
Zhong Feng still felt dissatisfied, but in the end, he could only accept the wife"s arrangements.
Furukawa Shun looked at w.a.n.g Che with pride. If he had a tail it would be sticking upwards, and his nose would be in the air. After all, it was not anyone who could invite the greet Zhong Feng for a meal. Perhaps, he was the only one, apart from his family members.
"Are you pleased with yourself?" w.a.n.g Che asked rhetorically.
"Naturally, I am pleased with myself. I am a great person. And tonight, you will see the power of love." Shun laughed happily.
"What did you say?" w.a.n.g Che smiled meaningfully, his smirk making Shun realise that he should not provoke people without backup.
"Peh, what does he know apart from threatening me?" He thought silently in his heart. The more he considered that wicked look on the other man"s face, the more he became displeased by the situation. Anyway, there was no need to fear.
"I said tonight you will be paying for the dinner." He folded his arms in a stance that declared that he was not willing to compromise.
"I hope that you will not regret it later." The words held a hint of dark mystery.
"Why would I regret? You will regret when I order the most expensive items on the menu." These words gave Shun immense satisfaction even if he knew w.a.n.g Che could, at least, afford to treat a few people to a good meal.
