“Ah, alright.” Fifth Young Master Shen hesitated for a few seconds. His men brought over the laptop, so why the sudden change of mind?
However, he could not refuse since Chu Wuyou requested it. Besides, the person involved had already confessed so there was no need to look through the footage anymore. Apart from that, he was embarrassed to admit the reason they had not watched the footage was because he failed to locate the USB port of the miniature camera.
In actuality, Fifth Young Master Shen did not have the time to inspect the “camera” properly.
Chu Wuyou extended her hand and retrieved the “miniature camera” naturally. Her expression remained as still as water.
Ye Lanchen turned to steal a glance at that “miniature camera” she was toying in her hand. His eyes twinkled with brilliance at the sudden realization.
Did she lie about the camera?!
Even so, he admired her calm and collected composure from earlier.
“Well, please follow us to the police station.” The quick-witted young policeman picked up the cue and instructed Chu Ninger and the other two women coldly.
However, his attitude softened visibly when he turned to Chu Wuyou a second later. “Miss Chu, I’m afraid you’ll have to visit the police station as well to place a written report,” he requested respectfully.
“Young Master Shen, First Young Lady Chu is my guest, after all. There’s no need for First Young Lady Chu to head over to the police station now that the problem has been sorted out.” Young Master Leng stepped forward out of the blue and stood in front of Chu Wuyou. His gaze was tender when he openly shielded the latter.
Young Master Leng rarely spoke for someone else. Chu Wuyou was undoubtedly the first woman in history that made that happen.
His plea caught Fifth Young Master Shen by surprise. The latter refused to comment but shifted his gaze toward Ye Lanchen who was standing next to him. What the hell?
Someone dared to be the hero in front of Third Elder Brother?
Trying to shield Third Elder Brother’s legally married wife?
This joke had gone too far!!!
Ye Lanchen remained silent but his eyes were focused on Chu Wuyou.
Ever since stealing a glance at him the first time he entered through the door, Chu Wuyou had been ignoring him as if he was transparent.
Not only did she not call him for help when she encountered a problem, but she also did not request his assistance when he came to the rescue. She even pretended as if they did not know each other.
Was she really afraid that the others would learn about their relationship?
What about now? Was she going to keep on the pretense?
“I appreciate your great hospitality, Young Master Leng, but I’m a law-abiding citizen so I’ll head over to the police station with Young Master Shen to place an official written report. I’m the plaintiff, after all…”
Ye Lanchen turned around to leave before she could finish her sentence.
Dumbfounded, Chu Wuyou thought what he did was so rude!
She picked up her pace and left the private room after him nonetheless.
Young Master Leng watched her receding figure and the corners of his lips curled upward into a meaningful smile.
“Third Elder Brother, both of you should go home…” Inevitably, Fifth Young Master Shen would not actually request Chu Wuyou and his Third Elder Brother to head over to the police station. He told them to return home once they exited Leng Jue.
“We’re going to the police station.” Ye Lanchen interrupted Fifth Young Master Shen before the latter could finish his sentence.
Fifth Young Master Shen was shocked. Third Elder Brother did not have to head over to the police station because of a minor incident like this.
What was playing on his Third Elder Brother’s mind?
Why did he feel like his gallant Third Elder Brother was throwing a tantrum?
Was it because Chu Wuyou mentioned to Young Master Leng earlier that she wanted to place a written report at the police station? Was Third Elder Brother angry because of that?
Where was his coolheaded, steady, and reliable Third Elder Brother?
Fifth Young Master Shen did not now know how to react to the man who was obviously having a fit.
On the other hand, Chu Wuyou seemed not bothered. She thought that going to the police station was part of the official proceeding thus she headed for the police car.
Fifth Young Master Shen twitched his lips in frustration.
Third Elder Brother had evidently lost his temper but this ignorant woman still did not take the cue and headed for the police car. Was she trying to dig her own grave?
