His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Zhong Feng could not settle down when he returned to the Area 99 villa. Every detail of the video was already etched in his mind. He fidgeted uncharacteristically as he sat at his home office desk. His finger tapped on the hardwood like a ticking bomb.

Though his body was not still, his mind had a strange calmness as he analysed the situation. He was evaluating every aspect and determining the best course of action.

If Song Lili had some incriminating material on him, he would not care about its release. But he would never let go of anyone who threatened Xiao Lei. He had already been polite enough with Song Lili because of his mother.

However, she had crossed a line, and it would cost her everything. He did not want her to be seen again in Supreme City. She would only be an eyesore to Hu Lei.

He dialled a number and spoke some curt instructions to a person on the other end of the line. When he hung up, he clutched his phone in his hand. He remembered the pained screams from Hu Lei in that video. He had already known about the incident. But seeing what had occurred, hearing it… His heart hurt.

After a few moments, he managed to suppress his emotions and then made another call.

"Hello, my darling." A teasing voice came through.

Zhong Feng smiled despite his poor mood. She was always the light and the warmth that made everything in his life worthwhile. He could not remember how he had lived his life before he knew her.

"You are in a great mood." It was both a statement and a question.

"Of course, I have been getting much better which means that I am much closer to returning to you. It seems like if I stay away for long, you might be stolen from me." There was a hint of pouting at the end.

Zhong Feng mood became even better. He liked it when Hu Lei acted spoilt with him. "I cannot help that I am handsome." He indulged her.

"Who told you that? Let me tell you. I am more valuable than you. If people knew my true worth, they would be breaking down doors." She said with a huff.

Zhong Feng lamented that it was indeed the truth. She was too valuable, and that is why so many people were after her. He wanted her to be as extraordinary as she was, but he could not help but worry about the dangers.

"Yes, yes, you are the most amazing." He chuckled softly.

"Now tell me, why are you in a bad mood?" She asked.

Zhong Feng sighed at being exposed, but he did not want to affect her by telling her about the issue with the video. "It's nothing much. It is just a couple of flies hovering."

"Then, you should just swat them away." Hu Lei giggled. She knew that it was probably something a little more serious, but Zhong Feng would not tell her. In any case, she would return soon. She was already at a critical point in her treatment.

"Don't worry. Nothing can beat your husband."

Hu Lei smiled on the other end before her face became a little more serious.

"Actually, there is something that I was planning to tell you later tonight. It is about that organisation. At least, I think it is."

Zhong Feng sat up straighter. "What is it?"

"I told you that I started hypnosis sessions with Dr Huo. She is using a technique to unbury the memories that I have repressed and pushed off to the dark side. It's part of the personality integration or consolidation or whenever."

Zhong Feng did not rush her even as she babbled on.

"Anyway, my memories after being abducted by the Global Volunteer Doctors have become a lot clearer." She took a deep breath. "One of the doctors who worked in that lab was Huo Kang."

Zhong Feng frowned. "Your great uncle?"

Hu Lei was surprised. "You know about him?"

Zhong Feng did not respond for a while. Of course, he had investigated every part of the Huo Clan before he had considered sending Hu Lei there. He would not make decisions or trust anyone based on blood. Naturally, he had found out about Huo Kang.

Unfortunately, there were no records about his work after he left the Huo clan until he died and his remains were sent to his family.

"I have heard of him." He finally said.

"Dr Huo told me about him. It seems that before my father left the clan they were close. He left soon after that and no one heard from him. He fell out with grandpa because of some work that they were doing together."

"What exactly do you remember?" Zhong Feng asked seriously.

"There is not a lot even with my recovered memories because I was sedated for the most part. I think that he was the head of the lab or something. I felt that he looked familiar when I saw his picture in the Huo Clan's hall of fame, some lounge where they place photos of clan members with merit."

Zhong Feng felt overwhelmed by anger at the thought that someone who had harmed his Hu Lei had been enshrined and honoured. And he had sent her to their tainted lair. He could not bear the thought that she could be suffering turmoil, living in the same place as the evil man lived.

"I am sorry, Xiao Lei. I shouldn't have sent you there. I will come to get you." He was already making arrangements of having her return to Supreme with him in his mind. If he needed to build a fort to protect her, he would.

Hu Lei laughed. "Don't be silly. I am totally fine. I have met so many nice people from the Huo Clan, and I am getting better. Plus, I can't hide from pain and darkness. That is what made me experience identity disturbance in the first place. Anyway, he wasn't a completely evil person. He was just like my dad. They let their pursuit of the way of medicine cloud their judgement in every other way."

Zhong Feng sighed. His Hu Lei was too soft and kind.

"Actually, I was not treated too badly at that time. At least, he did not drill my head." She made a bad joke.

'If it was not too bad, then why did you repress the memory?' Zhong Feng thought.

Hu Lei would not have answered honestly if he had asked. But she had remembered why. It was the first time she had killed. At the time, one of the children who had been experimented on had gone berserk. He had started attacking everyone and even killed two other children.

However, instead of helping, the adults in the lab had probably treated it as another fun experiment. All of them in that dormitory had been in danger. So, Hu Lei had stepped forward and fought the larger boy until she bashed his head.

It had changed something in her. That changed something had made her mother more afraid of her. And that changed something had made her father see her potential as a killer.

"Don't push yourself. If you are not comfortable, I will come there to get you immediately." Zhong Feng promised.

Hu Lei felt warmth envelop her heart, and it made her more determined to work through the treatment.

"I promise I will let you know if anything changes. For now, just look into the connection between Huo Kang and Global Volunteer Doctors. I have a feeling that these are the keys to discovering the identity of that organisation."

Zhong Feng too felt that this was a huge possibility.

The couple talked for a little longer before hanging up.
