“She was here.” Elder Ye knew that not all lies could be false. Only by adding a bit of truth to a lie would it be easier for people to believe it. Whether it was true or false, it would be even more difficult to distinguish the truth from the lies.
Therefore, Elder Ye did not deny the fact that Chu Wuyou had come to the Ye family residence. Moreover, so many things had happened in the Gu family today. Even if he did not say it, with Ye Lanchen’s ability, he would be able to find out.
“And then?” Ye Lanchen’s heart was in a daze. He had guessed it right. She took advantage of his business trip to go to the old residence.
Chu Wuyou was fast. She did not delay at all. Did she want to divorce him that badly?
At that moment, Ye Lanchen’s heart was filled with hatred. She was really good.
Then, he felt that she was an ingrate who was not raised well. She was raised differently for so long and did not know how to be close to him.
“It was your grandmother who called her here today. There was a banquet at the Gu residence, so your grandmother asked her to come along. If you want to talk about the many things that happened at the Gu residence today, you can ask her after you come back. She left not long after she returned from the banquet. Your grandmother said that she was in a hurry when she left. It was probably an emergency. The chauffeur sent her. Later, the chauffeur came back and said that she went straight to the company.” What Elder Ye said at that moment was all true, however, he deliberately hid a few points. The points he hid were the most important.
Elder Ye paused for a moment, then, he deliberately added, “Oh right, you’re not in the company. Why would she go to the company? She’s a woman. She’s not from the company. Is it reasonable for her to enter and leave the company so casually? Mind your own woman. She doesn’t know anything. She… ”
When Elder Ye said this, his voice deliberately carried a hint of dissatisfaction. Elder Ye did not feel guilty since he spoke the truth, instead, he said it with great confidence.
Ye Lanchen could not allow others to talk about his wife, and neither could Elder Ye. When he heard Elder Ye’s dissatisfaction with Chu Wuyou, his eyes darkened and he immediately hung up the phone.
Next, Elder Ye took a deep breath. It was just a close call.
Elder Ye’s words overlapped with Ye Lanchen’s matter to a certain extent.
Ye Lanchen thought that Chu Wuyou must have left in a hurry after receiving his call, and then went straight to the company.
If that was the case, then there would not be any major problems. Ye Lanchen’s heart slightly calmed down.
Although the rebel army had been resolved and their people had been safely rescued, there were still many other matters that he needed to handle. He could leave the other matters aside, but he had to personally handle Ruan Zhi’s death.
Ruan Zhi had been with him for ten years. Everything in Country C was managed by Ruan Zhi. A few years ago, Ruan Zhi had almost lost his life to save him.
He might have been grateful to Ruan Zhi, but he saved Ye Lanchen’s life. Now, Ruan Zhi had lost his life because of him, so he naturally could not ignore it.
At the very least, he had to bring Ruan Zhi’s ashes back and hand them over to his family.
The next day was the third day after Ruan Zhi’s death. If Ye Lanchen settled everything, he could return the day after.
After Ruan Zhi’s matters were settled, he would return immediately. This business trip made him feel uneasy. He could not get through to Chu Wuyou, so he was even more worried.
Also, he could not get through to Secretary Liu. Ye Lanchen thought about it and dialed Secretary Liu’s number again.
Ye Lanchen knew that it was better to ask Secretary Liu about some matters since it would be faster and more accurate.
