Ting Wan nodded curtly at Hu Lei and then glanced at Zhong Feng before looking at Housekeeper Li. She did not show any obvious emotions about this entire affair. However, Hu Lei was extrely curious about this woman and wanted an opportunity to observe her.
In truth, Hu Lei was not a person who loved drama purely for the purpose of entertainnt. She considered herself a people-watcher for the sake of understanding humans and creating more riveting works. Her primary genres of choice as Little Ninja Cat were science fiction, fantasy and cri. Her grasp on these elents was exceptional because of the environnt in which she grew.
Unfortunately, when it ca to drama and romance, she was hopeless. She did not need anyone to tell her that she sucked. She had once attempted to follow in the footsteps of Carefree Dreams. She had looked down on herself after re-reading the few chapters.
However, she had not given up on her dream of writing a romance novel or at least, incorporating more romance elents in her future books. She intended to observe people doing interesting things fuelled by various emotions to fulfil this goal.
And this Ting Wan… she was an interesting one.
"Miss Hu, Ting Wan will be responsible for providing any help you need, from office work to driving." Housekeeper Li added with a smile.
After that, he left with Ting Wan in tow.
"I have instructed Li to provide suitable snacks every three hours." Zhong Feng went back to his original topic of health once they were alone.
"An interval of three hours is too short. I will beco a dumpling." She protested.
Zhong Feng leaned to her and pinched her cheeks lightly. She was too thin, and she would not gain healthy weight if she continued like this. She had just eaten, but the total amount of food in her stomach could not even fill a small bowl.
"Do not worry so much. I have just not gotten used to eating large als." She spoke with a smile lifting her hands to touch his hands.
"That's why you need multiple small als for now." He paused. "We will also need to visit the hospital soon."
Hu Lei beca tense.
"I am fine. I know that my body is not in the best state, but there are no major problems." She responded.
"It will give peace of mind." Zhong Feng pulled out a powerful card.
Hu Lei felt a pang in her heart when she thought about all the struggles that Zhong Feng must be going through.
"I will go." She gave in.
Zhong Feng lips stretched a little.
"The consultation will not be without reward." He spoke mysteriously.
"What do you an?" Hu Lei beca excited.
"You will have to wait and see." He changed the subject. "Have you decided on what to do?"
Hu Lei's answer to her current quandary had not co to her in a dream. She was still unable to decide about her next step.
"I definitely want to continue as an author, but I am not clear about the best way to proceed." She responded with a thoughtful expression.
Zhong Feng looked at her anxious face.
"Do you want my input?" He asked with a small smile.
Hu Lei nodded.
"I think you should not be in a rush. It's better to take your ti and find the best path instead of rushing in due to anxiety. For now, you can just work on what you want. Once you make your decision, you can begin publishing again."
She felt that the words made sense.
"What if everyone has forgotten ?" She asked in a small voice.
"You are unforgettable."
Hu Lei knew that he was just comforting her, but she still felt happy and warm. His idea was quite solid. For now, she did not even know how to begin or if she could still write. She should try out a new novel idea or attempt to finish so of her old work. This should help her decide on what to do next.
"You truly deserve to be the number one man in Supre City. How cos no one has snatched you up yet?" She leaned towards him with a teasing smile.
Zhong Feng felt surprised at her action, but he also was incredibly happy. This was the first ti she had shown her roguish flirtatious behaviour before him since she had been back. He stood up and pulled her from her chair and into his arms.
"What do you an no one has snatched up yet? Is my wife not in my arms?" He spoke in an equally teasing fashion.
As expected, she blushed until the tips of her ears seed to burn. She attempted to escape but could not. So, she could only bury her face in his chest and use a small fist to pound his body.
Zhong Feng frowned at how small and frail she felt in his arms. He felt like she was only skin and bones beneath her clothes. He felt incredibly anxious because it seed like she would fall apart. He breathed in deeply. The previous night he had slept alone in his bed, and he had dreamt again of her disappearance.
He could not bear it. He had walked to her bedroom and lay next to her before sighing in relief. His heart had finally cald down. Now, he felt anxious about parting from her once again. However, even though he wanted to tie her to his side forever and keep her from the world, he did not want to be another cage for her.
He could not break her wings.
"You will be late for work." Hu Lei spoke into his chest.
"Mmmh… I will leave in a mont." He responded, but he did not release her.
After long monts, he finally let her go.
"Be careful. Do not skip als. If you want to wait up for , you can just sleep on my bed." He added a few words before striding out.
Hu Lei looked wistfully at his departing back. She smiled to herself and went back upstairs to prepare for her day. She pretended not to have noticed a certain little mouse who had been watching them for a few monts.
