He’ll surely learn about it! He’ll surely learn about it!! He’ll surely learn about it!!!
“…”
Chu Wuyou turned to blink blankly back at Ye Lanchen. She was a highly intelligent person but she only came to the realization several seconds later.
She was worried, anxious even, but was this what she was really concerned about? Was she actually dreading that Elder Chu would learn about the incident?
“Ye Lanchen, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?” She stared at the man angrily after recollecting her thoughts.
It was evident that he had pretended to reassure her on deliberation. She was even feeling grateful for him just several minutes ago.
Well?!
“It was you who seduced me?” Innocence was written all over Ye Lanchen’s face, the corners of his lips seemed to pout slightly in grievance. He had obviously taken his undeserved gain for granted.
This reaction caught Chu Wuyou by surprise. She was complaining about how he had tricked her earlier but the man traced it back to the source of the incident – the episode that took place in the mall.
“I…” She let out a sigh of impatience as she failed to find words to retaliate.
The corners of her lips twitched upon discovering the expression on his face. What the hell was he feeling aggrieved about?!
However, right that moment, she had no choice but to suffer in silence.
“But you didn’t have to…” Chu Wuyou really did not expect Ye Lanchen to kiss her earlier. If she had known better, she would not have gone up to seduce him in public even if her life depended on it.
“It was you who seduced me!” Before she could finish her sentence, however, the man interrupted by stressing the fact again.
“I know, I know, but what I mean is that you could have used another method then…” She was trying to explain to him patiently. Although she was an intelligent person, she did not realize at that point that it was useless trying to argue with Ye Lanchen anyway.
The man’s intention was evident! He was trying to…
“It was you who seduced me.” Once again, he interrupted before she could finish her sentence. He repeated the same words stubbornly. This time around, he appeared more innocent, his tone more aggrieved.
“Ye Lanchen, enough with the parrot talk. Don’t you have something else to say? Even if I had taken the initiative, you didn’t have to kiss me in public, resulting in this irreversible situation.” Chu Wuyou thought she was calm enough but her voice went up several octaves higher uncontrollably.
“What would others think if I didn’t react enthusiastically when seduced by my wife in public?” He looked at her and replied matter-of-factly.
“…”
His reasonable explanation stunned her for a couple of seconds.
However, she immediately regained her composure. F*ck! She almost fell into his trap.
“Who among them knows that I’m your wife? Tell me!” She inhaled and exhaled deeply several times, trying to regain her composure, but she ended up yelling at the top of her lungs.
Their secret marriage was never announced to the public. No one present in the mall earlier knew about it apart from them. His concern did not make sense at all!
“Don’t worry, everyone will learn about it soon.” He added nonchalantly.
“…”
Chu Wuyou’s eyes twinkled. She appeared stunned but she quickly regained her composure. She realized their argument was pointless because the priority now was to solve the problem.
“Husband.” She regarded him as the endearment rolled off her tongue gently.
“Hmm?” he replied softly. The corners of his lips curled upward again although his expression remained unperturbed. He could not wait to hear what she was going to say next.
