Chapter 133 Mom
"Lei Xiao Tong don't be stubborn, if our son was here do you think he would be happy that you're starving yourself?"
Mr.Lei coaxed his wife who hadn't eaten or spoken a word the mont she woke up.
She was just staring at the door as if she was waiting for soone. He didn't want to break his wife's heart by telling her that their son wasn't coming back.
He had died and there is no way to bring the dead back unless you sell your soul to the devil but how can they do that when they can't even find his body.
Mr. Lei looked at the bowl of soup and heaved a sigh. He didn't know what to say or what to do to get his wife to eat.
Mr. Lei put the bowl down on the table and stared at the ceilings.
"Do you rember the day you gave birth to Lei Zhao? You were disappointed at first because you wanted a daughter."
Mr. Lei lips stretched into a sad smile.
"You refused to even hold him but the mont you did. I still rember the smile on your face.
You said our son was special. From then, you doted on him."
Lei Xiao Tong looked at his husband for the first ti since she woke up.
"I rember how you would argue with other parents when Lei Zhao gets into a fight. And bla them for not raising their kids well.
You little Zhao was a saint who did nothing wrong in your eyes."
Mr. Lei snorted, "At tis I was jealous of my son. He has stolen my wife's love and attention from ."
Lei Xiao Tong's lips stretched into a sad smile when she heard her husband.
"Do you rember the night you got sick? Lei Zhao sat by side all night. He was eight at that ti. But he never left your side. I ca back from a business trip to see him taking care of you.
At that ti I realized why you love your son so much."
Mr. Lei eyes glinted with sadness.
"Mummy, you have to eat so that you get well soon. If you die or sothing happens to you little Zhao would be lonely and sad.
Do you want little Zhao to be sad? So eat, a little just for . Our son said as he smiled softly at you. Then you ate all the porridge he fed you.
Do you rember after he finished feeding you the promise you made him?
He wiped your lips and ca to sleep beside you.
Mummy, promise that no matter how sick you're. You're going to eat. Or else I'm going to be sad.Food is so delicious why don't you want to eat? Also eating you get the energy so that you can get well soon. Don't you want to teach how to play the piano?"
A great sob escaped Lei Xiao Tong, and she covered her face with shaking hands.
"W-why is life so unfair?" Lei Xiao Tong croaked.
"I can't imagine life without him. I will wake up every day and realized my little Zhao wouldn't be around anymore. He isn't going to be here when I grow old. First it was Lei Zheng then Lei Zhao both of them died in a car accident without a body. Is this a curse?"
Lei Xiao Tong eyes dripped with tears. She felt herself collapsing. Mr. Lei pulled her into his arms as she sobbed into his chest.
He just held her as she cried. Mr. Lei's emotions were walled off behind a mask of coping. He knew he had to be strong for his wife.
His dark lashes brimd heavy with unshed tears. His hands clenched into a shaking fists, in desperate battle against the grief.
His wife's noisy sobs echoed through the room shattering his cracked heart.
Lei Xiao Tong suddenly pulled away and wiped her tears.
She chuckled humorlessly, "Lei Zhao will say I look ugly with now."
Mr. Lei looked at his wife trying to act strong and felt his heart aching more.
"Where is the soup? I promised little Zhao to eat no matter what happens. I-I need to eat, or my son will scold when I et him again in Heaven."
Lei Xiao Tong rambled as she looked at her husband.
Mr. Lei lips twisted into a forced smile and picked the soup on the table.
He took a spoonful and brought to his wife's lips.
Lei Xiao Tong opened her mouth and took the soup. The mont she did more tears fell from her eyes.
"Why are you crying? Do you want to get wrinkles and look old?"
Suddenly an amused voice sounded in the room.
The soup Mr.Lei was holding fell on the floor.
"Easy old man."
Mr. Lei's hands trembled as he pointed at the figure leaning on the door.
"You look like you have seen a ghost, dad." Lei Zhao chortled as he strode towards his parents.
He pulled his father into a hug. The emotions Mr. Lei had hidden in his facade suddenly broke up.
A lone tear traced down his cheek, falling on Lei Zhao's shirt.
"Oh, the famous cold hearted CEO just shed a tear."
Lei Zhao joked trying to lightened the atmosphere. Mr. Lei's lips twisted into a smile then he hit Lei Zhao.
"You stinky kid, making your mother cry. Go and apologize to her. Mr. Lei said as he winked at Lei Zhao.
Lei Zhao ran to his mother on the bed and hide behind her.
"Mom save , he is scary."
Mr. Lei hit Lei Zhao rapidly but Lei Xiao Tong said nothing she just sat in daze.
If it was a normal day she would have scolded her husband for beating his precious son but not today.
Mr.Lei stopped and looked at his son. Lei Zhao awkwardly ca down from the bed and crouched down in front of his mother.
"Mom…"
Just one word but it broke her down. The painful emotion slamd thro
