Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

In a blink of an eye, it was already a month since Yan Mei and Lei Zhao got married. Even though she didn't want to admit it, Yan Mei knew he was changing her. She was growing attached to this man and she couldn't help it.

She thought she will never give her heart to a man again but with Lei Zhao; she wanted to take a chance. Matters of the heart are very complicated. One second you feel shattered and broken because you give love a chance and then you think you will never recover from the pain or fall in love again. Then in a blink of an eye, you find the same heart beating again for another man.

Maybe being in love is God's punishment. What is worse than two people who are clearly in love with each other, hurting each other?

From onwards, she will let go of everything. Why should she cry over someone who couldn't even trust the woman he swore he loved? A man who wasn't bold enough to listen to her explanation or trust the woman who nearly lost her life for him.

Why should she torment herself when there is a man who loves her and has always been there for her? Anytime she has a nightmare, he will hold her tightly in his arms coaxing her before she falls asleep. He always pampers and dotes on her even when she is moody.

Yan Mei wants to be happy. She is tired of being lonely and feeling empty all these years. Her daughter and mother would want her to be happy.

Yan Mei didn't know what the future entitles. Maybe she will never get her happily ever after, but she will surely enjoy this moment and make beautiful memories to replace the bad ones. Even though she doesn't love him yet, she knows it was just a matter of time before she falls for him.

That day, sitting at the dining table with his parents and Niu Niu made her realize what she had been missing in her life all this while. She had never laughed as much as she did that night. She still remembered the battering of Lei Zhao and Niu Niu as they argued over who gave her the most meat and the one she likes.

Yan Mei saw how much his parents considered her as their daughter, and the love she saw in their eyes. At that moment she felt a large part of her iced heart-melting. She felt warmth and happiness that she hadn't felt in a long time. Yan Mei felt she was worthy of love again.

She wouldn't let anyone take this happiness away from her. If the world tried to take her happiness away from her again, she will battle with the world. Someone said that the most painful goodbyes are the ones that are never said and never explained, unfortunately, she had experienced this.

The sound of her phone ringing brought Yan Mei out of his stupor. She sighed as she realized that she had been thinking a lot these days. Maybe it's her way of forcing herself to psychologically move on.

She picked the call and saw that she had missed several missed calls from Lei Zhao. Because of the launch of her new collections, she had been spending most of her time at the office since they came back from his parents' place.

Yan Mei can still remember his mood when they came back that night. He was jealous of a kid! She never thought a big guy like Lei Zhao can be so na?ve. He kept whining all night!

A smile tugged at the corners of her lip as her eyes strayed at the wall clock. It was already ten o'clock pm. She knows he must probably be waiting for her like every night.

Yan Mei: Hey, I will be back in half an hour.

Yan Mei sent him a text message and cleared the folders on her table. She opened her drawer and removed a small box from it. He had inspired her for this design. She hopes he likes her gift.

***

When Yan Mei got home, the light in the living room was still on. She opened the door and changed into a pair of slippers. When she walked into the living room, she saw the man who was sleeping on the sofa and she was stunned.

The dim light fell on his deep silhouette. His pure and soft features were mesmerizing. She stared at his face for a few minutes. She realized his eyelashes were very long, making Yan Mei feel jealous. How can a guy get such long eyelashes?

Yan Mei sighed and walked to the bedroom to pick a blanket to cover him. Just as she was about to cover him with the blanket, Lei Zhao suddenly opened his eyes. His big hand held hers and pulled her into his arms. He let her sit on his legs while he buried his face in her shoulder.

"Wifey…"

Hearing his gentle voice filled with deep tenderness, Yan Mei became a little absentminded. She hugged him back unconsciously, with his head still buried in her shoulder.

"Hmm… "

Lei Zhao grinned when he realized she had hugged him back. He knew he was slowly crawling in her heart.

"I miss you… don't you miss me too?"

Yan Mei stiffened when she heard him. Trying to dodge his question, she picked her bag on the opposite sofa and removed an exquisite box and gave it to him. Lei Zhao looked at the exquisite box for a while and when he took the box, his eyes still remained on her.

Although there was no special expression on her face, he saw the eagerness in her eyes.

"This is for me?"

When he realized his wife has bought something for him, Lei Zhao was excited and surprised.

He opened the box and saw a stunning men chronograph blue military waterproof stainless-steel wristwatch with a blue leather strap. The design was one of the best he has seen.

"Do you like it," Yan Mei asked

"No, I don't like it." Lei Zhao said blankly.

"Oh," Yan Mei said disappointed.

"I will go take a shower if you don't like it you don't have to wear it," Yan Mei said indifferently but deep down she was sad.

She thought he will like the first gift she had given him. This collection was her masterpiece but it seems he didn't like it. Is there something wrong with the design?

Yan Mei picked her bag and got up from his lap. The moment she turned around and took a step she felt someone hugging her from behind.

"Wifey," Lei Zhao said emotionally. Yan Mei stiffened but she still tried to remain indifferent. She couldn't let him see her disappointment. "Are you angry because I said I don't like your gift," Lei Zhao asked softly.

"No, why would I be?" Yan Mei snorted. "It's a gift, you can like it or not," she continued.

Lei Zhao pulled away and turned her around to face him. He tucked her hair behind her ears and softly rubbed his thumb against her cheeks.

"Hmm." Lei Zhao nodded.

Yan Mei's heart dropped when she saw him nodding. Lei Zhao giggled when he saw her low mood. He looked at the watch and his eyes flash a soft light.

"I don't like the watch, Wifey… I love it," Lei Zhao said with an enormous grin on his face. He looked like a kid who has received his favorite toy. He doesn't think any gift can compare to this watch.

It was the first gift she had given him and she designed it herself. He is the first person to wear her first limited edition of watches. How can he not like it?

Yan Mei looked up to meet his eyes when she heard him. They stared at each other in a heat filled moment, as she looked into his piercing eyes. Yan Mei felt herself being lost in his stare.

Her heart skipped a beat when she felt his breath fan across her cheeks. She thought he would kiss her, but he pulled her closer and printed a soft kiss on a forehead.

"Thank you."
