“There’s something in the interlayer. Please get it out.” Ye Lanchen spoke again in a gentle voice as if he was whispering sweet nothing.
Chu Wuyou blinked back blankly. There was something in there? What could it be?
Could it be something that might cause some misunderstanding? Something like a condom?
However, the man had not used one whenever they were together. He had not used one before she told him about her infertility and there was no point in using one now that he was informed. She heard that using one would take away a lot of pleasure from the man.
He was never the kind of man that would inconvenience himself.
Confused, she reached into the interlayer he mentioned and her fingers soon found something like a small notebook.
About the size of her hand.
She frowned instinctively. What could this be?
“Take it out.” Ye Lanchen did not allow her time to think.
Chu Wuyou had no choice but to pull out the little book.
Then, its red color blinded her eyes.
There were not many red books to begin with, not to mention one in this size.
She was not stupid but quite the contrary. Although she retrieved the book with its cover faced down, thus not revealing the front cover, she already knew what she was holding in her hand.
For a split second, she really wanted to shove the book back inside. No, she wanted to tear it into a million pieces.
Of course, she dared not do so under Ye Lanchen’s piercing gaze. Besides, Secretary Li had already seen it as well so doing that would be a futile effort.
What a peculiar man! Why did he bring along their marriage certificate on a business trip?
Besides, they were out of the country thus the certification meant nothing over here anyway.
What was he thinking?
“Is that a marriage certificate? Whose is it?” Secretary Li was a fair and just man but he was not stupid. He recognized the little red book at first glance and he figured the president intended for him to see that.
Therefore, he extended his hand to take the marriage certificate from her. The minute he opened the book and noticed the names registered on it…
He felt as if he had been struck by the lightning. The man stood there motionless but his eyes widened more and more…
It was difficult to believe what laid in front of his own eyes. This was the president’s marriage certification and surprisingly the name Chu Wuyou was written on the spouse column.
Assistant Chu’s name.
How did he describe Assistant Chu’s husband earlier again?
He called him a cruel, abusive, petty man.
However, this little book had mercilessly told him that the woman’s husband was indeed the president. In other words, he had just reprimanded the president right in front of his face.
He had thought so. Why would the president insist on going into Assistant Chu’s room? They were husband and wife, as it turned out.
Why would she deceive him like that?
Oh heavens, this was not a game.
Secretary Li’s gaze was filled with resent and complaint when he shifted his eyes to the woman again.
Chu Wuyou sighed silently. She felt extremely diffident upon witnessing the look on the secretary’s face.
Never did she expect this would be how it turned out. She never guessed that ridiculous man would bring their marriage certificate on an oversea business trip.
Without saying a word, Secretary Li returned the certificate to the woman and immediately left the room, not forgetting to close the door behind him as well. She reckoned the man must have done it on purpose.
The couple was now left alone on their own.
