Ye Lanchen’s eyes narrowed immediately upon listening to Chu Wuyou’s words. The murderous intent that filled his eyes in a matter of seconds was unbelievably terrifying.
What did she mean by being back in eleven months?
Back to where?!
To Tang Boqian’s side?!
How could she discuss her plans to elope with “another man” right in front of him?
Perhaps he was too consumed by rage at the minute, he completely forgot that although he could see the woman, she was unable to see him and had no idea that he was observing her.
She had mentioned the desire to end the call yet she continued to “flirt” with “the other man.” Ye Lanchen had a surging urge to rush over to the other room at this moment.
What else did she say earlier?
That he chose her because she was hideous?! And stupid?!
That her “Senior” would not treat her that way?!
Was she implying that Ye Lanchen disdained her?
Would he have married her if he truly disdained her?
Ye Lanchen came to the sudden realization that Tang Boqian was currently in Jin City. What the hell was he thinking? Had he lost his mind when he gave out orders to trap Tang Boqian in Jin City?
He crafted a message on his cell phone in a matter of seconds. It was an instruction to dismiss everyone that was blocking Tang Boqian’s path in leaving Jin City.
The man shifted his attention back to the security footage after delivering the message. Chu Wuyou was still conversing over the phone, her face still washed over by a delighted smile.
A heavy silence fell upon the room. Everyone else in the room held their breath cautiously upon discovering the flurry of emotions that stormed across Ye Lanchen’s face.
He appeared exceptionally frightening at this moment.
How could a man suppress his emotions at a time like this?
However, all of them discovered something from the woman’s attitude and manner of speech earlier. It was evident that Chu Wuyou did not have any romantic feelings toward Ye Lanchen at all.
Her thoughts were simple and innocent. Their marriage was based on a contract and it would finish as soon as the contract expired. It was just that and nothing else.
The other men were guessing if Ye Lanchen would rush over to the other room right now to…
However, the man did not budge the slightest bit. He stood there quietly as he stared at the security footage through narrowed eyes.
He did not call her again. Perhaps he was waiting to see when she would finally end the call.
“Does he know about the two children?” Hongling posed the sensitive question after a brief moment of consideration.
“He doesn’t know about it.” Chu Wuyou was taken aback. The smile on her face faded and was replaced by another peculiar emotion.
“Hmm, that’s not for the worst. At least the children would not be harmed in this way.” Hongling also loved the children as her own as she had watched them grow up. She genuinely did wish that the darlings would not be harmed in any way.
If anyone dared to harm the darlings, all of them would unquestionably rise against the perpetrator. They would never let the person who harmed the children off the hook.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes twinkled upon listening to Chu Wuyou’s words. She was probably talking about him.
What was it that he did not know about?
The incident from five years ago?
She told Tang Boqian about that incident from five years ago?!
On second thought, he figured she was not talking about that incident from five years ago. She appeared rather solemn and concerned simultaneously when talking about it.
It was not likely that she would appear like that when talking about the incident from five years ago. She would have if she held a special place for him in her heart, but it had already been proven that she could not care less about Ye Lanchen.
What else was she hiding from him?
Although he could not come up with an answer right now, he reckoned it must be something really important if she even forgot to disguise her emotions when speaking about it!!!
