Chapter 302: Third Young Master Ye Is Enraged: Husband And Wife
Why would Ye Lanchen want to know what Chu Wuyou was doing earlier? She replied honestly that she had been was.h.i.+ng jujubes.
“Leng Rong is in Chu Residence and you’re was.h.i.+ng jujubes?” The man clasped his fingers tighter around the cell phone as a hint of coldness flashed across his narrowed eyes. He did not believe this earlier but he really felt like murdering someone upon hearing her confession.
This caught the woman by surprise. Was it wrong for her to wash jujubes when Leng Rong was present in Chu Residence?
How would that concern Leng Rong?
No, that did not sound right. It finally dawned upon her that something was up.
Ye Lanchen’s tone and emotion sounded off, even the words that came out of his mouth earlier seemed strange.
He said it in the way as if she was doing something inacceptable.
She was only was.h.i.+ng jujubes!
Therefore…
Ah, Chu Wuyou finally understood now, and the corners of her lips twitched. “What were you thinking? I was was.h.i.+ng jujubes. Did you think I was taking a shower?”
“…”
The man was speechless. The tensed features on his face finally relaxed. Was he stupid? How could he a.s.sume the worst without thinking the situation through?
“Wait for me, good girl. I’ll help you with the shower when I return. Ah, we should take one together.” The corners of his lips curled upward as he said flirtatiously.
“…”
Chu Wuyou did not know what else to say.
Third Young Master Ye was behaving more and more unlike himself. He had gotten too used to these sorts of flirty banters.
He had definitely become more shameless!
The woman thought of hanging up the call but refrained from doing so, thinking that he must have called her several times for urgent matters.
However, Ye Lanchen did not really have anything important to say. He did not inform her that he was on the way home to Jin City. He chose not to bring up Leng Rong again because he intended to catch the man off guard.
Not only Leng Rong but this woman as well!!!
Chu Wuyou blinked blankly after ending the call. Since Ye Lanchen was aware of Leng Rong’s visit to the Chu Residence, he must also be aware about the marriage proposal and the truck full of roses. However, he did not mention any of these in the conversation earlier.
It appeared that the man was rather open-minded! He was not as petty, domineering, or unreasonable as she thought he was.
Hmm, she could finally stop worrying if that was the case.
The woman turned around to find Leng Rong watching her from behind up close. Startled, she staggered a few steps backward.
“A phone call from Ye Lanchen?” Leng Rong flashed a smile at the woman..
“Yup.” She nodded after a brief moment of consideration, thinking it was unnecessary to lie since Leng Rong already guessed correctly.
“What’s the relations.h.i.+p between you and Ye Lanchen?” Leng Rong desired to know how far they were into the relations.h.i.+p. He picked up from the eavesdropping earlier that she was speaking with the other man about taking showers.
He detected the slight anger in her tone but the grumble somehow escaped her mouth in a flirtatious manner. This displeased him greatly.
“Husband and wife,” Chu Wuyou replied immediately without hesitation. She thought perhaps disclosing this secret could put an end to the marriage proposal drama.
“Chu Wuyou, you can reject my proposal directly if you really don’t want to marry me. Why make up an excuse like this?” Leng Rong, who was caught by surprise, stared at the woman furiously.
He was only asking casually. Why would she make up such a terrible lie?!
“Alright, I refuse to accept your proposal. But that doesn’t change the fact that Ye Lanchen and I really are husband and wife.” The woman’s reply left no room for negotiation.
She preferred acting with decision.
Leng Rong smiled at her before turning around to the direction of the living room. “Elder Chu, Wuyou said that she and Ye…”
Startled, Chu Wuyou immediately stuffed the man’s mouth with a big jujube to prevent him from finis.h.i.+ng the sentence.
“What’s wrong with Wuyou?” Elder Chu’s interest was piqued. He turned toward the source of the commotion with curiosity in his eyes.
“Nope. Nothing.” The woman shook her head vigorously. It was fine telling Leng Rong about the marriage between her and Ye Lanchen. However, the information should remain an absolute secret to Elder Chu.
