Chapter 263 Compensation
Yan i's body was trembling in anger as her hands on the table are still closed in a tight fist. She gritted her teeth, her nails digging on her palm, almost making it bleed as she felt her blood boiling through her veins.
She knew from Lei Zhao that the target of Gu Zhi, the psycho, was her all along—just because his sister, Gu Ren, fell in love with Wang Lu?
Ridiculous! Yan i thought that it is completely ridiculous to experience such a thing. Gu Ren was so in love with Wang Lu, and because of that love, with her knowing that he is married to her, she would tell Gu Zhi, his older brother to PUNISH her?
"I've been tortured for so long… I have endured this much… I was hurt and I was drugged… I almost lost my sanity…"
Yan i kept mumbling to herself, but Lei Zhao could hear it. He furrowed his brows in worry as he never saw this silent angry expression on Yan i's face.
He had to admit that seeing her this way sent chills down his spine. With Yan i's anger boiling inside her as if looking for a way to escape, Lei Zhao gulped as he eyed Yan i, nervous of what she is feeling.
"It was all because of her love towards him that I deserve to be punished!?"
Yan i's voice was loud this ti. It got the other custors' attention, Lei Zhao's eyes widening as he saw that Yan i was about to lose it.
"I already broke up with Wang Lu, didn't I? Why should I be punished until—"
"Wifey, Wifey!"
Lei Zhao imdiately stood up, instantly walking to Yan i's side as he held both of her shoulders in an attempt to calm her down.
"We're going to handle this, okay? We're going to make things better," he whispered, making sure that Yan i would hear him.
Yan i was still glaring at Lei Zhao. Her body was still trembling as she thought it ridiculous for her to be punished to such lengths just because Gu Ren was obsessed with Wang Lu.
"I thought he was dead," Yan i mumbled, "But why is he still alive? I know that Wang Lu had done sothing about this," she added, Lei Zhao, sighing as he grabbed his chair to sit beside her.
"We're going to do sothing about this, alright? There is nothing to worry about," he replied, Yan i's eyes now furrowing in confusion and at the sa ti, doubt.
"Oh? What are you two going to do? And you seem friendly with my ex-husband now. Don't you two hate each other?"
Lei Zhao heaved another sigh, "We're going to do what we can, alright? I know we hate each other but we have the sa goal, Yan i," he said, Yan i raising a brow at him.
"Sa goal?"
"Yes." A smile crept on Lei Zhao's face, "We have a common goal: to protect you."
A light scoff ca from Yan i as she rolled her eyes at Lei Zhao. She then crossed her arms in front of her chest out of frustration as she still felt irritated, but at least, she has cald down now.
"Whatever you two are doing, you guys are so unpredictable," she just comnted, making Lei Zhao laugh as he playfully ruffled her hair, Yan i, narrowing her eyes at him.
"Put this thought aside now," Lei Zhao said lovingly, "We are out on a honeymoon, rember?"
Yan i turned her body to look at her husband, "Says the guy who let sleep first. Says the guy who let go to the spa alone."
"Aah…"
Yan i has a point. He now feels guilty seeing Yan i this way, a nervous chuckle coming from him as he now started opening the crab for Yan i to eat.
"I'm sorry, Wifey," Lei Zhao apologized, "But I will be giving you my full attention now, I promise," he added, Yan i looking at him with still doubt in her eyes.
"You even prioritized talking to my ex-husband," she complained, making Lei Zhao chuckle as he found what she said funny. "Is he more important than you wife?"
"Wifey…" Lei Zhao was doing his best to coax Yan i. "It is that you are important that's why I swallowed my pride and talked to him even though we hate each other. It is to protect you."
"Hmm…"
Yan i found what he said convincing. Seeing that the expression on her face softened, another chuckle sounded from Lei Zhao as he got a chunk of the crab and extended his hand towards her face in an attempt to feed her.
"Now let give all the attention that you need, Wifey. I promise that everything will be given to you now, alright? I'll make every mont count."
Now Yan i could not help but smile. She playfully rolled her eyes at Lei Zhao as she opened her mouth, her husband feeding her with the crab that he opened for her.
"Good Wifey," Lei Zhao said, doting on his wife. "I promised I'll make it up to you. I will definitely make sure of that."
Yan i nodded as she chewed on her food, a smile still plastered on her face. Lei Zhao then started eating his al starting with the shrimps first as Yan i got so oysters for her to eat.
Both of them were now talking about anything under the sun. From ti to ti, they would talk about what they would do once they go back to City S.
Every ti Yan i would stray back to the issue and with her company, Lei Zhao would always have to divert her attention from those issues so as to not make Yan i worry.
"Are you always this workaholic?" Lei Zhao asked, eating one oyster. "Rember we ca here to escape from the city and from work. Now I would be the one throwing tantrums if you think of work more than enjoying with your husband."
Yan i narrowed her eyes, "Oh? But what did you two last night and earlier? Didn't that—"
"Ah, hush!" Lei Zhao put a shrimp on her plate, shutting Yan i up. "What I did was all for you and was important. I did promise to give you my full attention, alright?"
Yan i laughed, shaking her head as she took a bite of her shrimp. Lei Zhao chuckled as they continued eating, already enjoying the atmosphere as it was no longer heavy as it was a mont ago.
***
After lunch, Yan i and Lei Zhao started walking by the shore. They had their fingers interlocked with each other as they took a stroll, looking at the sea as they enjoyed the sun hitting their skin.
"Do you want to go sowhere after this?" Lei Zhao asked, Yan i, looking up to her husband in wonder.
"Nothing in particular… is there soplace where we could visit here?"
"Well…" Lei Zhao looked at the far end of the island, pointing at so boulder as Yan i followed his finger with her eyes. "There is a locked cave there," he said, completely getting the attention of Yan i as she cocked her head to the side in curiosity.
"What is with the cave? Can we explore it?"
Lei Zhao shook his head, "It is not advisable to explore the cave for the custor's safety. They could if they want to, but patrons rarely do that so they only take pictures outside."
"Oh!"
Sohow, an adventurous side of Yan i erged, making her want to see for herself how the cave is inside.
"Can we visit it then?"
Lei Zhao looked down to stare at his wife, "Do you want to?"
Yan i raised a brow at him, "Then why did you point the cave if you're not going to suggest it to ? You were asking where you want us to go… so I assud you want us to explore the cave."
Lei Zhao chuckled as he realized that his wife made sense. He planted a kiss on top of her head, Yan i giggling as she felt loved with Lei Zhao's small action.
They may be married now and may have stayed longer together, still, Lei Zhao has the capability to make her heart swoon and to make her feel giddy as if she was a teenager who fell in love with a man for the first ti.
"Then we could visit there later before we eat dinner. Yeah?"
"Yes!" Yan i's eyes glistened as if it were stars on the sky because of her excitent. "It's sothing new that we have to experience," she added, Lei Zhao, nodding in agreent.
The two of them continued walking as they stopped in front of a coconut tree, the two of them sitting under its shade to look at the sea beyond them.
Yan i rested her head on Lei Zhao's shoulder as Lei Zhao wrapped his arm around her shoulders. Both of them finally started to enjoy the alone ti that they had with each other.
Sohow at this mont, both of them wished that ti would stop so they could stay with each other longer before going back to reality in City S.
