Chapter 114: Young Master Ye, Someone’s Trying To Steal Your Woman’s Heart (V)
“There’s no more room in the police car. Go to Third Elder Brother.” Fifth Young Master Shen slammed the door shut.
Fifth Young Master Shen did not address Chu Wuyou as his Third Sister-in-law. In his opinion, Chu Wuyou was a poor match for Third Elder Brother.
His Third Elder Brother wanted to marry Chu Wuyou because he thought she was the woman from five years ago. However, Fifth Young Master Shen decided she could not be the aforementioned woman thus he reckoned Third Elder Brother would probably divorce her in no time.
Left with no other alternative, Chu Wuyou got into Ye Lanchen’s car obediently. The latter’s face fell but he remained quiet. He did not even throw a glance at her.
Fifth Young Master Shen sped up the whole process at the police station because he dared not cause too much inconvenience to Ye Lanchen.
Chu Wuyou got into Ye Lanchen’s car after leaving the police station. She held his gaze with quiet intensity. “Husband…”
“You still remember that I’m your husband?” Ye Lanchen scanned her face with an indifferent gaze. The coldness that permeated the atmosphere sent shivers down her spine.
How come she did not address him as such in others’ presence?
Chu Wuyou was at a loss for words. She blinked blankly at his face as she wondered the meaning behind his remark.
They had just acquired the marriage certificate and he was her legal husband by right. Of course she knew about that.
Puzzled, she truly did not know what else to reply to him.
“Where’s your miniature camera?” Ye Lanchen enquired instead of driving away. He stared at her face intensely when he raised the question so he would not miss seeing any changes that flashed across her face.
It was just his speculation, after all. He remained doubtful about his observation.
Chu Wuyou tensed up. Did he know about it? Fifth Young Master Shen that had been toying with the object had not even realized. How could Ye Lanchen possibly figure out without touching it?
Of course, Chu Wuyou reckoned it was because Fifth Young Master Shen never anticipated that she was lying at the moment. The latter also did not have the time to inspect it.
“Actually, I lied to them. It’s not a miniature camera but a button from my purse.” Chu Wuyou detected the hint of suspicion in his voice thus she took the opportunity to confess.
It was not the greatest secret in the world and she understood the value of honesty.
Ye Lanchen was not expecting the openness. He blinked back blankly and his facial expression softened visibly.
Fortunately, she was a tactful woman. He would teach her a lesson if she dared to lie to his face again.
Now that he confirmed the camera was fake, Ye Lanchen narrowed his eyes once he was reminded of the unperturbed performance she delivered earlier. This woman was really something.
He became more convinced that she was that woman from five years ago.
Nonetheless, he still required concrete evidence that could force her into disclosing her true identity.
“What a sly little fox.” Ye Lanchen looked her in the eyes as he threw out the ambiguity.
Chu Wuyou twitched her lips slightly. She was not a fox, but he was!
Just when she opened her mouth to fight back, the sound of his ringtone filled the air. It was a call from Elder Ye.
“You little rascal, it’s already day four, and if you still don’t want to get married soon, I’ll…” Elder Ye’s loud voice blasted through the speaker the minute the call was answered.
“I did. I’ll bring her home tomorrow,” Ye Lanchen replied straightforwardly and hung up the call without acknowledging the fact that his words left Elder Ye in utter shock.
“We’ll visit Ye Residence tomorrow night,” he informed her casually after he hung up the phone.
“Sure,” Chu Wuyou replied softly but did not comment further. She finally had the chance to meet Ye Bowen by tomorrow night.
