Chapter 84: Who’s That Person?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A hint of coldness flashed across Ye Lanchen’s narrowed eyes. Who was the person on the phone that made Chu Wuyou laugh whole-heartedly?
Ye Lanchen clenched his teeth at the thought of that.
He was reminded of the same dazzling smile that appeared on her face during their encounter in the underground parking lot. Could it be possible that she was on the phone with the same person from then?
Chu Wuyou headed to the inner part of the airport after answering the phone. Her pace quickened at the thought of meeting her darlings.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes darkened upon witnessing her enthusiasm. It was then that he decided she had to be there to pick someone up.
She picked up the pace so much that she appeared to be gliding through the air. He was keen to find out who it was that managed to overexcite her.
He trailed behind her but made sure to keep a reasonable distance between them.
Chu Wuyou who was walking ahead focused all her attention on speaking with her daughter.
“Mommy, is it true that you’re here to pick us up? Will I really be able to see you soon? You’re not lying to Zhixi like you did last time, are you?” Tang Zhixi’s tone was laced with accusation.
“No, darling, I’m already here at the airport. Zhixi will be able to see mommy very soon.” A feeling of guilt materialized in Chu Wuyou’s heart when she was reminded about the previous incident. The little girl must be heartbroken when Chu Wuyou failed to keep the promise she made.
“Hooray! Hooray! I get to see mommy soon.” Tang Zhixi cried out in joy. “Elder Brother, we’ll see mommy soon.”
“I know. Mommy is in Jin City and you’re here too, of course we can see mommy soon.” The precocious Tang Zhimo’s voice also blasted through the speaker.
Chu Wuyou could not help but laugh merrily upon hearing her son’s remark and her daughter’s antic.i.p.ation.
A safe distance was maintained between Ye Lanchen and Chu Wuyou. The former could not hear her chuckle but he witnessed her shoulder shaking because of laughter.
Ye Lanchen’s expression turned grave as he watched the woman in front of him giggling like a young girl in love.
He was her husband by law but he had never seen her smile in his presence.
“Darling, could you hand the phone over to G.o.dmother?” Even though Chu Wuyou would love for nothing more than to speak to her daughter, she had to locate their position first.
“Wuyou, you can’t get past the gate so you should just wait for us at the arrival hall. I’ll deliver both the darlings to you in no time,” Qin Yutong said simply into the phone.
“Are you sure?” Chu Wuyou expressed her concern.
“I’ve already retrieved our suitcases and Zhixi is all energetic now thus it’s not a problem.”
“Alright,” Chu Wuyou replied and hung up. Then, she headed for the arrival hall immediately and waited eagerly for both her darlings.
Ye Lanchen was standing not far behind from her, all the while making sure to keep a safe distance between them.
He did not deliberately try to hide but Chu Wuyou, who did not look back since the beginning, still had not realized his presence.
This also upset Ye Lanchen.
She had focused all her attention on the person whom she spoke on the phone – the person whom she came to pick up. Her mind did not think about anything else.
He was impatient to discover the ident.i.ty of the person she was about to reunite with.
