When Yan i woke up, her body was not as sore as before, and she saw the traces that he left all over her body. She didn't realize it when she woke up earlier.
She got up from the bed and saw a note on the table that said, "Wifey, rest at ho today. I have prepared porridge in the kitchen. Rember to drink it while it's still warm. I will co later and take you to our ho. Take care!"
Yan i looked at the note several tis and put it back on the table. She washed up and went down to the kitchen. She saw that he had put the food in an insulated bowl to keep it warm. Her originally indifferent face softened. After drinking her coffee, she was still too tired to do anything. She didn't even recall how long he tossed her the day before. She returned to the bedroom to take a bath.

Lei Zhao sighed as he stared at his mother.
"How are you mother?" he asked as he gave her a polite kiss on her cheek. Lei Xiao Tong plastered a serene smile on her face as she began to walk around the room.
"How do you think I'm feeling when my almost thirty years old son is not married yet? All my friends have grandchildren already. Tonight, you will be going to the charity ball with ."
"I'm not interested in your friends' debutante daughters, mother," Lei Zhao protested softly. He wanted to wait a while before he introduced Yan i to his family, but it seed he had no choice but to do it now or his mother would not leave him alone.
"Humor the woman who gave birth to you, Lei Zhao." Another sigh escaped his lips and he resigned to watching the clock as his mother kept talking about the importance of him getting married.
"I'm already married mom," Lei Zhao abruptly interrupted his mother. Lei Xiao Tong opened her mouth in surprise and looked at him.
"What did you say?" She thought that she was hallucinating.
"Yes, mom. I got married yesterday," Lei Zhao said nonchalantly as he leaned on the sofa.
"Lei Zhao, I hope you're not lying to ." Lei Zhao shook his head helplessly in reply.
"If you want to et your daughter-in-law soon, let go now. I promise you, I will bring her to the old house very soon."
Lei Xiao Tong looked at her son for a minute before agreeing to letting him go. Even though she thought that he was lying, she decided to believe him.
"Okay. You can go, but if I don't see her in three days, I will arrange a marriage for you," Lei Xiao Tong said.
Lei Zhao kissed her cheeks and nodded slightly.
"Mom, I hope you like her. Don't make things difficult for her when you see her. Also, she doesn't know who I am yet, so don't scare her away."
"You stinky boy. You're already teaching how to treat my daughter-in-law?"
Lei Zhao smiled as he walked towards the door. When he opened the door, he turned back and saw his mom, deep in thought.
"I love you mom," he yelled at his mother. Without waiting for her response, he walked out the door.
Lei Zhao was always a good boy in front of his mom. He had been spoiled by his mother and elder brother since he was born, making him a carefree person. While his elder brother was cold and alienated, Lei Zhao was amiable and lively. Unfortunately, his elder brother died, making him reserved. But in front of his mother, he was still a little boy.
He rembered when he got into a fight in high school and the principal called his mom. His mom argued that her son was a good boy who would never hurt a fly, so how could he beat soone up?
Little did Lei Xiao Tong know that her good son was a demon who hid his claws and fangs under his handso and pure face. He wouldn't even blink an eye killing sobody.
When Lei Zhao ca ho, he saw no movent in the house. He went upstairs and pushed the bedroom door open. He saw Yan i packing her things.
"Wifey, do you need help?" Yan i turned around to look at Lei Zhao when she heard him. Flipping her hair over her shoulder, she shook her head.
"I'm done."
Lei Zhao sat on the bed and looked at her.
"Wifey, I t mom today. She wants to et you, but there is no pressure if you don't want to. We will go when you're ready."
Yan i's body stiffened. Was she ready to face her mother-in-law? She knew Wang Lu's mother never liked her. Her nose was always in the air as if Yan i was below her. It was still vivid in Yan i's mind, the contemptnt and the way her Wang Lu's mother would look at her with disgust written all over her face.
Will Lei Zhao's mother like a woman that married her son in a flash marriage? Thinking about having to face another evil mother-in-law made her mood drop.
"I finished packing. Let's go." Lei Zhao helped her bring her bags downstairs and smiled mysteriously.
"Wife, I don't have a car yet, so we have to use your car."
Yan i raised her eyebrows, but didn't say anything. When they reached the car, she gave the keys to Lei Zhao and sat in the front passenger's seat. Yan i leaned her head against the window, resting her chin on her elbow and closed her eyes.
A few minutes later, Yan i felt a shadow settle across her. She imdiately opened her eyes. The murderous glint in her eyes disappeared when she realized it was Lei Zhao busily covering her with a quilt. He did not notice the murderous glint that passed through her eyes and she took a deep breath, which cald her emotions.
She glanced outside the window and said, "We aren't there yet?"
Lei Zhao glanced at her.
"We are almost there. I saw you sleeping, so I covered you with the quilt. I was afraid that you might catch a cold."
