<h4>Chapter 338 Home</h4>


    "Hey Lei Zhao" she raised her head briefly to look at him before returning to the tray of slop on herps


    "I''ve already talked to the doctor, you''ll be getting discharged from the hospital anding home with me" he delivered softly, fighting a smile at herical disappointment with the contents of her tray. At his words, she brightened visibly before deting with a sigh.


    "Not toin or anything, after all, I''mpletely tired of this hospital and disgusted even if I haven''t seen beyond these four walls, the thing is I can''t turn myself into a leech on you." She replied before grabbing the spoon to the left and poked the contents of a te.


    "Don''t be like that, you have a healthy bank ount yourself" Lei Zhao countered gently


    "I do?" She asked, genuinely puzzled as if the idea had not urred to her at any point.


    "Don''t tell me you forgot that," Lei Zhao answered with a sad smile, wondering how bad things really were for her to forget that she was the owner of a small fortune. Well not outrageously wealthy but independently so, a small bank ount that he passed liberally for her regrly. Something he had started to do when they had started the harmless ruse.


    Yue Yan tapped her head with a wan smile before she beamed at him "cool, that means I should make arrangements of my own"


    "That''s not gonna work." He pointed out casually.


    "Why not?" she groused, ring at him for a short second before she returned to eyeing the contents of her tray tantly, the desire for something different was obvious even to a blind man


    "My wife has ordered me to bring you home," Lei Zhao reported proudly but judging by her reaction, he should have eased her into the news, but he didn''t know it was so damn explosive until she jerked and the contents of her tray went flying, luckily they only sttered on the bedclothes, too thick to go further.


    "Woah, are you alright?" He queried a trifle ashamed at his insensitivity


    "You''re married now?" All her attention fixated on him


    "Yes" he answered, feeling a trifle foolish


    Ignoring the mess in front of her she aimed the spoon in his direction with a re and a threat "Tell me everything about her, don''t miss a single thing"


    "Why don''t youe and see her for yourself, you guys will absolutely love each other" he returned with a smile


    "ckmail huh" Yue Yan sniffed then pouted


    "There will be good food too" he added to sweeten the deal.


    "Definitely ckmail" she nodded and dropped the stic spoon with a Carter on the tray with its offensive contents


    "Seriously, she''s ordered me to bring you back home, she''s already making the arrangements. If I leave you to your own ns I won''t get a wink of sleep tonight or any other night for that matter" he pleaded with a smile


    "She''s got you trained, so she puts you in the doghouse that easy, and you let her?" Yue Yan teased


    "Yan Mei can''t even keep a temper for more than ten minutes. She''ll just wake up every second worried that you''ve fallen down the stairs wherever you are and bleeding to death or some crazy scenarios" heined but anyone could see he was feigning his disgust; his smile was much too wide to sell those words.


    "I know all about crazy scenarios" her small voice sounding unbearably vulnerable.


    "You see? You guys are going to get along just fine,e to my ce and recuperate, at least rx a while and heal before making other ns for the future." He finished with a flourish of logic that had Yue Yan rolling her eyes at him.


    "You said there will be good food" she finally asked, staring at the tray in herp.


    "My chef would like nothing better than to dote on you, my wife loves him too. I''m too busy nowadays so I hired a chef" he touted, his pride shining out of him.


    "You really love her" was the next words he heard.


    The observation caught him off guard and had him hot by the cor, he didn''t exactly know how to discuss the love he had for his wife with his ex-girlfriend. He was out of his depth and rapidly feeling as if he was insensitive, there was no manual to safely navigate these waters. "Ahhhh"


    "No I mean you really do, it''s shinning all over you and I''m jealous" she pouted in jest


    "Yue Yan" he tried again but she continued as if he hadn''t said a word


    "Does she know about us?" Yue Yan queried softly.


    "Everything," he answered solemnly, he had no secrets from his wife.


    "And she still wants me to live in your house?" The question was delivered with a quizzical smile that had him chuckling Yan Mei affected everyone in much the same way, a deep sense of puzzlement that grew into something unbreakableter.


    "She suggested it"


    "Damn she''s a better woman than I am, you seriously lucked out" Yue Yan pointed out, discreetly shifting the tray off herps and pushing it to the foot of the bed, the contents otherwise untouched.


    "Every day I wake up and I see my life, I cannot believe it sometimes" Lei Zhao replied with a rueful smile, unable to curb the undertones of love in his voice when he spoke about his wife.


    "For that reason alone, she''s going to be my best friend." She replied with a smile up at him, her eyes shining with some curious quality.


    "Yan Mei is actuallypletely lovable on her own and I''m sure she would love a sister of her own" Lei Zhaomented wryly with a satisfied smile as he handed off thest point.


    "Ooooh, I''ve never had a sister, now I have one,! I''m sold, get me out of here!" She mock ordered with a gleam in her eyes. The both of them burst intoughter, a bittersweet sound that held old and new memories.
