His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 611 - BARELY BREATHING

Wang Che looked at Qi Han for a moment before picking the call. He did not want to trigger Qi Han further by leaving the room to pick up the call. Ultimately, they were close friends from childhood. Even though they got angry at each other, it was unlikely they would cut ties completely. 

If he left the room, it would be a sign of mistrust. 

"Is there a problem?" Wang Che asked directly. 

Oren and Zev knew better than to call unless there was a real issue. Therefore, the call made him a little apprehensive. 

"Yes. Mrs Zhong showed up at the villa." Oren said. 

"I see. And?" Wang Che did not know why Hu Lei showing up at the villa was a problem. 

"We told her that she could not come into the villa as per your orders," Oren reported. 

Wang Che's lips tensed a little at hearing this information. He could already see how this matter could have escalated. He knew Hu Lei's personality, and she was not someone who would accept things not going her way. 

He never thought that she would visit Shun, especially after their disagreement at the wedding. He knew she blamed herself for Shun's accident. He had reassured her that she was not at fault for the incident. In truth, her disagreement with Shun was the one that made Shun confess his feelings. 

If not for the accident and the complications that followed, Wang Che would have sent her a new motorcycle as an expression of gratitude. 

He thought that she would take a lot of time before she gained the guts to visit Shun. Moreover, he never exposed the location of his private residence. Although, he supposed it was not difficult for Zhong Feng to find it. 

If he knew Hu Lei would just show up, he would have instructed Oren and Zev to let her in. While they were tough and resourceful, they were not the best at dealing with social issues. They would follow his instructions at face value. 

"I suppose she did not take it well." He said wryly. 

"She decided to sneak into the residence," Oren said with dissatisfaction, almost sulking. "She got in quite easily. I am not sure how she did it. The systems did not pick anything up, and the guards are quite vigilant." 

Wang Che remembered the first time he met Hu Lei during that game in the Hidden Realm. They were in the same group at the beginning of the game. But one of the girls in their group activated a trap, separating Hu Lei from them. 

A few moments later, Hu Lei activated another trap with laser beams. Everyone thought Hu Lei would be kicked from the game, but she had the skills of a seasoned gymnast or contortionist as she escaped from the trap. 

Over the years, Wang Che realised that Hu Lei was more than she let on. Most of the time, she was curled up against Zhong Feng like a small and helpless bird. However, now and then, he would catch a glimpse of a dangerous predator. 

Moreover, he never forgot the incident that drove Qi Han insane. Even if he was not sure how accurate Qi Han's memory was, Hu Lei was probably quite capable. At the very least, she saved Qi Han from certain death. 

He was confident about the security at the villa, but he did not know enough about Hu Lei. And clearly, he had underestimated her. The people guarding his villa were not to sneeze at. Their instincts were sharp, honed by years of battle. 

"When we noticed that she snuck into the villa, Zev decided to confront her and ask her to leave." Oren continued with a hint of awkwardness. 

Wang Che could see how this might be bad. Zev had a stiffer personality than all the others, and he followed orders and rules as they were written. It took a lot for him to break the rules, and even then, he would feel guilty and unwilling to forgive himself. 

It made him a great soldier, but it made his social interactions difficult. 

"And?" Wang Che prompted with irritation. 

Oren cleared his throat. "I am not sure what happened exactly, but it seems like Zev fought with Mrs Zhong." 

"What?" Wang Che stood up in shock, losing composure. "Is Hu Lei alright?" 

"Please calm down, Sir. Mrs Zhong is fine. But Zev is gravely injured." Oren spoke quickly. 

"What?" Wang Che was once again floored. He knew the level of Zev's fighting skills.

"Once again, I am not sure exactly what happened. You know there is no surveillance inside the house. All I have is the video showing Zev flying out of the front door. It is quite something." Oren said with some excitement. "Almost all of Zev's ribs are broken. When I picked him, one of his lungs was collapsed." 

Wang Che felt a little chilled at this information. "Is he going to be fine?" 

"Surprisingly, yes. He is now stable. According to Tommaso, Zev is either very lucky," he paused. "Or it was a carefully calculated action. If that is the case, it was probably a warning. But leaving him with just a breath, it would take a lot of skill." 

Wang Che sat back down with a tight frown. "What are they doing right now?" 

"Listening to music, it seems Mrs Zhong brought alcohol," Oren replied. "Should I do something?" 

Wang Che felt a headache setting in. "Do you think you can do anything? Just let them be." 

"Yes, Sir," Oren answered before the call ended. 

Wang Che looked at Qi Han who was pretending to not listen to him, but his ears would be perked up if he were a dog. 

"I have to go home. Thank you for the information. If you find out anything more about my brothers, let me know." Wang Che said.

"Is everything alright?" Qi Han asked pretentiously. 

Wang Che looked back flatly. "Yes, Mrs Zhong is fine." 

Qi Han looked like he had just bitten a bitter lemon. "I do not want to know about her. I am just concerned about your chaotic life." 

Wang Che smiled a little, despite himself. He hoped that Qi Han would return to his original self. His personality was not the best because he was a bit self-righteous and a little close-minded. But his best point was his positive attitude and faith in people to the point of foolishness. 

Life had been a little tough for him, causing him to be cynical.

But there was still hope. 

"Let's have dinner next week. My treat." Wang Che said before leaving. 

Behind him, Qi Han's eyes softened a little.
