Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

Chapter 20 - The parents are crazy too

Lina only woke up late in the morning. Shen was asleep late too.

She was already in bed. Shen had carried her from the car to the bed, making sure she wouldn't wake up. He had sponged her body clean of all the blood, like he'd cared for her when she was in a coma.

He was still sleeping on the sofa in their room.

Her eyes fell upon his long, sleeping body tightly cramped on the sofa.

Suddenly her heart ached at how uncomfortable he must be.

She looked at the bed in which she was sleeping. It was wide and soft. She had enough space for three of herself in there.

She got out of bed and walked over to the sleeping beauty on the sofa. As she knelt down next to him, she brushed his hair back from his face with her fingers.

His skin was like the purest marble and his hair was dark like the night. As her fingers traced his jawline, she felt a gush of warmth and familiarity.

As if in a dream, a very long time ago, she remembered stroking the same jawline.

His eyes opening at that very moment coincided with the image of the dream she was finding hard to remember in that very moment.

She gasped softly.

She remembered. She remembered something! Even if it was buried so far underneath, there was a glimmer.

Her heart was filled with a soft glow as she smiled at his waking face.

"Sweetheart, you're already awake..." he whispered lazily, as his hand reached up to hold hers, still c.a.r.e.s.sing his face.

"Yes I am. After all, I slept without any interruptions from when we got into the car."

"Yes, my sweet wife did look very comfortable. I had to be so careful carrying you. And here I am, stuck in the doghouse."

Shen faked a hurt expression. All he got was a big fluffy pillow smashed into his face.

- in Shen's study -

Ayu stood in her boss's presence with her head hanging low.

His eyes were raging and his lips set in a thin line. He looked like he was about to behead her.

"I hear Lina was so sick, she couldn't get out of the bathroom by herself."

"She had a panic attack, sir."

"You woke her up, after I made sure she was sedated?"

"She was crying in her sleep."

"Why didn't you call me? Do you think I do not know how to look after my wife? Do you think I do not care about her enough?"

Shen's voice was low. This was when he was at his most dangerous.

Ayu grimaced. This was bad. She was dead either way.

The devil was so demanding. He wanted her to look after the silly madam, but still disturb him whilst he was quelling an internal coup?

"I apologise sir, of course madam comes first."

She spoke those words, even though she was internally cursing him.

'If I didn't bring madam to you, you'd be dead, you stupid demon!'

How she wished she could just spit that out fearlessly. But instead, she would be punished.

"Brief me, and then I will transfer you to HR for two months."

Ayu's face fell.

Her? HUMAN RESOURCES? FU**.

She wasn't allowed to show her horror. So she soldiered on. She meticulously updated Shen on all the project fronts and handed over the files.

Even if he had to work on everything himself by sending her to HR, she would be punished for displeasing him.

Human resources at Moshi Corp was a shit show. They employed more than 2000 people only in the capital city offices.

She would have to mediate petty disputes, pay cuts, bonuses, jealousy, in-fighting, promotions and leave requests.

It was an administrative nightmare.

"One more thing sir" she added, pausing slightly before she continued, "your parents..."

Shen looked up, startled.

"My parents? What about them?"

He knew they would hear about Lina waking up at some point through their own sources. But he'd hoped it would be a little later.

They would strangle his little wife.

With their overbearing

suffocating

over-the-top

pampering.

Shit.

'They will hijack her, I know it. That evil pair.'

Ayu made her way to the doors of his study as she quietly informed him of the situation.

"They'll be here in 20 minutes."

Before Shen could reply, she was gone.

Human resources was punishment enough. She didn't have to deal with his tantrum about his parents coming over. She wouldn't wait around.

Shen was fuming. He knew the drill. He walked straight out of the study to find Lina.

He was going to tie her up to the bed and gag her so she would stay there without making a sound.

Then he would shoo his parents away at the door, saying she was fine and resting and that they would just disturb her.

Shen decided to tell them she was sedated and wouldn't wake up for a long time and that they shouldn't wait.

There was no way those two psychos would go near his angel.

She was his and his alone.
