Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 188 Disappointment

When they reached the hospital, they saw Liam waiting for them at the entrance. His shirt was stained with something red—blood.

Lei Zhao stopped in his tracks and his face paled. His fears really came true.

Yan Mei took his hands and interlaced their fingers together. She squeezed it tightly and gave him a reassuring smile.

They walked towards Liam who had his head lowered.

"Liam…." Yan Mei called him softly.

Liam looked up at them.

"Mr. Lei, Miss…"

Because Liam didn't know the relationship between Yan Mei and Lei Zhao he didn't know how to address Yan Mei.

"How is Ying Sheng?" Yan Mei asked without commenting on the title.

Liam avoided Lei Zhao's gaze as guilt swarmed through him.

"I'm sorry…..I-I"

"What do you mean by sorry?!" Lei Zhao snapped at him.

"I went to work and then I got a call….she….I told her...beg her...she….wanted to stop hurting.."

Liam stammered as he muttered incoherent words.

Lucas who just arrived at the entrance saw Liam talking to someone. He assumed it was Ying Sheng's family. He strolled towards them and saw his brother struggling to explain what happened.

"We were in the middle of a meeting when Liam got a call from Miss Ying. I don't know what she said but my brother was panicking so I decided to drive him to the house. When we got there…..Miss Ying, she was lying in a pool of her own blood. She had cut her wrist."

Lucas explained.

Lei Zhao looked at the man who looked exactly like Liam and felt the air leave his lungs.

"Is she….?" Lei Zhao couldn't even complete his question because of his fears.

"No, fortunately we arrived on time. But she is in a coma."

Lei Zhao nodded and patted Liam's shoulder. He could see the young man was pretty shaken up. To witness a suicide scene was pretty traumatizing.

"Thank you, Liam." Liam widened his eyes and looked up at Lei Zhao. He thought Lei Zhao would blame him for this..

"Don't blame yourself, Liam. I'm sure you did your best."

Yan Mei added as she flashed him a smile.

"Thank you too." Yan Mei said to Lucas.

Lucas nodded, "It's okay after all she would be my sister-in…."

Lucas stopped himself and rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly.

Yan Mei narrowed her eyes but said nothing.

"I want to see her." Lei Zhao said. He wanted to confirm that she was really okay. How can she do this? No something must have happened for her to finally snap.

Liam led them to the VIP award where Ying Sheng was. Due to the blood loss, her skin was pale and her lips were blue.

Lei Zhao walked towards her and grabbed her hand. He caressed the back of Ying Sheng's hand and said nothing.

Yan Mei stood beside him and placed a hand on his shoulder.

Lei Zhao sat beside Ying Sheng without saying anything. Silently comforting him.

"Did something happen?" Lei Zhao turned and asked Liam who was standing at the door.

"Hmm. It's complicated."

Lei Zhao frowned and stood up.

"Let's talk outside." Lei Zhao said with a deadly expression.

******************************

"So tell me what happened?"

Liam took a deep breath before answering Lei Zhao.

Liam started telling Lei Zhao about the night he met Ying Sheng at the club, meeting her parents and the reason for her suicide.

"You're telling me my uncle and Aunt are the reason why she is lying on the hospital bed?!"

Lei Zhao asked with anger rising in his throat. How can parents be cruel to their own child like this?

He has always respected his uncle but this….even the lowest people wouldn't do this.

"Yes. Her parents did this." Liam clenched his fists as anger thrummed through him.

"It seems her father is also having a baby with his mistress." Liam added.

Lei Zhao pinched the bridge of his nose. To say he was disappointed was an understatement.

"Mistress?" Lei Zhao mumbled.

His uncle really dared to break their family rules. It was forbidden to have extramarital affairs in their family.

People of the Ying family are not allowed to marry two or more women or have extramarital affairs. In order to prevent internal war among step siblings, the patrich made this law.

Lei Zhao scrunched his face and removed his phone from pocket. His mother needed to know what his little brother was doing to his own child.

He dialed his mother's number and waited patiently for her to pick up the call. His mother was mostly busy at the lab so it was very difficult to get hold of her.

On the fifth ring,the call was finally picked up.

"Lei Zhao, is something wrong?" Lei Xiao Tong asked the moment she picked up the call. She knew Lei Zhao wouldn't call her more than two times unless something happened.

"Mom, how are you?" Lei Zhao asked his mother when he heard the tiredness in her voice.

"Good, you?" Lei Xiao Tong asked her son.

"Hmm, good. Are you busy now? Can we talk?"

Lei Zhao rubbed his temples as he asked.

"Not really. Is something wrong?"

Lei Zhao sighed, "Yes. Can you come to Paradise Hospital? Ying Sheng is sick."

Lei Zhao told half a lie and half a truth. He didn't want to tell his mother what really happened over a phone. He was afraid she wouldn't be able to handle the news.

"Oh, is she okay? I'm coming right away. Has she eaten or I should prepare something for her?"

Lei Xiao Tong asked as she removed her lab coat.

"No mom. No need to cook for her. She has eaten." Lei Zhao said. Gosh, he hated lying to his mother but he had no choice.

"Okay then I will be there in half an hour."

"Drive safely." Lei Zhao hung up the call and turned to look at Liam.

Fortunately, Ying Sheng had someone like Liam by her side. If not, he was really afraid of what would have happened.
