Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 74 Dumb

After Yan Mei finished dressing up for work; she came downstairs

"What are we having for breakfast?" she asked as settled herself on one of the chairs at the dining table. Lei Zhao carried the bowls over to the dining table with a smile on his face.

"We have scrambled egg served with two slices of turkey bacon, fresh fruits, and a whole-wheat toast accompanied with a glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice prepared with love." A smile emerged on Yan Mei's face as she stared at the food.

She moaned with delight as she tasted the food, savoring the taste with her eyes closed with a smile on her face.

"This is really good!" Yan Mei's eyes fluttered open as she exclaimed with a wide grin on her face.

"Hubby, you should let me open a restaurant for you. Don't worry about your salary, I'm really generous with my workers." Yan Mei said as she gulped down the orange juice.

Lei Zhao held his face in his hands with a thoughtful look on his face as if he was contemplating her offer.

"But Wifey, I don't want to cook for other people; I only want to spoil you with my cooking skills, others aren't worth it!"

Lei Zhao exclaimed, giving her a playful glare.

Yan Mei stared at Lei Zhao and processed his words. She could see his eyes floating with sincerity as if he was making her a promise.

"Hmm, why didn't I think about that?" Yan Mei tilted her head.

Lei Zhao shook his head and patted her head gently.

"Because you're dumb."

Yan Mei playfully punched his arms.

"Ouch." Lei Zhao chuckled.

"I'm just joking, my wife is the smartest woman in the whole wide world!" Yan Mei nodded in satisfaction at his words.

*****

Because Yan Mei had taken a few days off work, she came to meet a pile of paperwork waiting for her at the office. She inwardly groaned.

"Good morning President Yan." Su Bei greeted her friend with a subtle smile on her face. She set a stack of papers on the table before standing infront of Yan Mei.

"These are the documents you requested." Yan Mei stared at the papers nodding.

"Morning, how are you?"

Su Bei smiled and nodded, "I'm good. I can see marriage life is really treating you well, Boss."

Su Bei said with amusement laced in her voice. Yan Mei stopped looking through the document she was holding and raised her head to meet Su Bei's gleaming eyes.

"What are you trying to say?" A smug grin appeared on Su Bei's face.

"Can't you see you're glowing? Love really does wonders." She said as she burst into a fit of laughter.

Yan Mei squinted her eyes.

"Oh," she answered perfunctorily.

"Any updates this morning?" Yan Mei asked flatly trying to change the topic.

"I got a call from Mr. Greene. He wants to set a meeting with you, today at 4 pm." Yan Mei tapped her fingers lazily on the table.

"I remember giving the Greene project to Manager Lu about a month ago. Why does the CEO want to meet me personally?" Yan Mei questioned as her brows scrunched into a scowl.

"He intends for you to meet him at the Moon restaurant. There are lots of decision that needs to finalized in regards to the supply of the materials; he said he wants your personal critique since it's vital to the project."

Su Bei informed.

"Yan Mei remembers that she had rejected his proposal when the man asked her out. If she wasn't in need of the raw materials for her project to start she wouldn't have even chosen to work with him.

Is he trying to play tricks on me?" Yan Mei mumbled.

"I don't know. He said he wanted to discuss his own ideas and he needed to personally go over some clauses of the contract."

Yan Mei was irritated, she wanted to go home early today but it seems that wouldn't be possible.

"Can I schedule the meeting?"

"No, Mr. Greene would be leaving the country tomorrow morning. He won't be back for a month."

Yan Mei looked out the window and sighed.

"Alright, tell Mr. Greene I will see him."

"Maybe you should appoint a vice president" Su Bei suggested.

"You're now married, you can't be traveling out of the country and meeting men at any time of the day."

Su Bei said.

Yan Mei heaved a sigh, "Yeah I have been thinking about this actually but I have to find someone worthy of this work and someone I can trust."

Su Bei nodded, "Maybe we should conduct an interview. I know we might find the right person. There are a lot of hardworking people in the company who will fit perfectly for the job."

Yan Mei pondered on her suggestion before nodding, "Alright then, sort out a list for me."

A smile appeared on Su Bei's face. "Of course, I will work on it, right away."

"Thank you, Beibei." Yan Mei stated, appreciative of her friend's suggestion.

"You're welcome! I just want you to get free time so that you can spend it with your husband. It seems he is really treating you well!" Su Bei said as she threw Yan Mei a wink.

With that being said, Su Bei was out of the office, leaving Yan Mei to herself.

Yan Mei smiled as she resumed her work.

****

At exactly, 3:55 pm Yan Mei arrived at the Moon restaurant. She was ushered into a private room by a waiter who was waiting for her. When she entered the box she saw Mr. Greene already waiting for her.

"Miss Yan, you're earlier than expected." Mr. Greene said as he stood up and strode towards her.

"Yeah, I'm time conscious." Mr. Greene stretched out his hands which Yan Mei took politely.

"I hope Miss Yan, doesn't mind but I invited a friend to the meeting."

Yan Mei knitted her brows together.

"Friend?"

Mr. Greene nodded, "Yes. He is-"

Just as he was about to speak, the door opened. Yan Mei turned to look at the person. Her eyes met a pair of obsidian black orbs which caused her eyes to widened.
