“Wuyou, where did you keep the prenuptial agreement?” Third Young Master Ye’s top priority right now was to get his hands on that agreement so he could destroy it permanently.
Of course, he would get her to destroy it with her own hands so she could not shift the blame on him later.
Admittedly, no one could compare to this man’s treacherous and two-faced personality.
He had no idea where she hid the agreement. In fact, he had searched through her room but it was to no avail.
Chu Wuyou looked at him somewhat half-consciously. She did not reply nor react to his question.
Third Young Master Ye was startled. Was she too tipsy that she forgot where she placed the agreement?
Was going too far as bad as not enough?
“Wuyou,” he said again, more tentatively this time. His plan would be for nothing if she passed out at this moment.
“Why do you want the agreement?” She blinked blankly before enquiring out of the blue.
Her unexpected question surprised the man. Besides, she enunciated her words clearly unlike a drunk person would.
Was she too drunk or not enough?
He really could not tell.
“I’d like to have a look. Show it to me.” He decided to carry out as planned.
“Don’t you have it too? You have the same copy as mine so just look at that.” Chu Wuyou frowned slightly. The skepticism in her eyes was visible.
The man was caught off guard. It seemed like she was not drunk enough. He should have drunk two more bottles of white wine earlier.
“I can’t seem to find mine. Can you show me yours?” He tried another time. His expression was completely calm and unperturbed when he lied.
She regarded him in the eyes as she gave some serious considerations. Finally, she nodded. “Alright. Give me a minute and I’ll bring it over.”
He was smug with his own success. It appeared that his tactics worked. Pretty well too, he would say. It would be way more difficult to trick her normally. She would not have fallen right into his trap.
Third Young Master Ye kept an eye on the woman as he was eager to know where she placed the agreement that he had been looking for so long.
His eyes followed her to the edge of the bed. A pair of cotton slippers were placed underneath. She retrieved one of the pairs to reveal their prenuptial agreement from within.
Of course, that pair of cotton slippers was brand new. It had never been worn before.
Speechless, the corners of his lips twitched.
She was good at this game. He saw that pair of slippers before during his search but he did not even think of giving it a second glance.
Never would he expect her to hide the agreement inside the cotton slippers. He thought this was not really her style.
Indeed, she never failed to surprise him.
Was this agreement so dear to her? How afraid was she for him to discover it?
Fortunately, he was smart enough to kiss her after drinking wine. Right this moment, her mind processed on another level, which was way slower than her usual sharpness. Otherwise, she would never reveal the agreement from within the slippers in the man’s presence.
He would never have found those if he did not see this with his own eyes.
It was the right decision to make.
She finally revealed the agreement. Besides, he was now certain that the kiss earlier affected her greatly. At the minute, she was less thorough and observant than usual. She was also unable to read minds like an expert.
This made it easier for him to carry out his next steps.
