Chapter 154 - Third Young Master Ye, You’re Such A Two-faced Man! (X)
Ye Lanchen did not know that Chu Wuyou was feeling uncomfortable because of the scent of alcohol. He thought she was also overtaken by passion and enthusiasm, like him. This was his first time witnessing her in this way.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes darkened as he studied the seductive woman. He lowered his head suddenly, intending to kiss her on the lips. He assumed her lips must be soft too, judging from the touch of her skin. To be able to taste her would be an amazing feeling.
He could not resist the urge to kiss her at this moment. He even desired to devour every inch of her delectable body.
Chu Wuyou appeared stunned for a couple of seconds. She stared at him blankly without fighting back, as if her brain had stopped functioning.
Constantly being attacked by his breath, which reeked of alcohol, caused her to be slow in her reactions.
Ye Lanchen was unaware of the truth. Seeing as she did not resist, he curled the corners of his lips upward into a smile when the blank expression spread across her face. He loved the submissive look on her at this moment. It was absolutely adorable!
However, just when his lips were about to touch hers, his phone rang out of the blue. The sudden noise brought Chu Wuyou back to reality and her hands flew to cover his mouth immediately.
Obviously displeased, he froze for a brief moment when he noticed the flirtatious expression that spread across her face. “What’s the matter? Are you shy?”
Ye Lanchen, who did not know the truth, assumed she was embarrassed by the emotions.
“You… You should answer the call,” Chu Wuyou stuttered weakly, “I’m going to take a shower.”
Right this moment, Chu Wuyou felt extremely thirsty because of the scent of alcohol that filled the room. She noticed the water positioned by the side of the bed and gulped it all down at once.
“What’s wrong? Thirsty?” Ye Lanchen attempted a sardonic smile as he threw in the ambiguous remark.
Chu Wuyou’s cheeks reddened even more. She darted into the bathroom without answering.
She slammed the door shut behind her immediately.
Ye Lanchen’s lips twitched into a sly smile. His displeasure from earlier was replaced by delight.
She was embarrassed!!!
He glanced over at his cell phone. He gave a snort of disdain the moment he noticed it was Fifth Young Master Shen. Shen Ting better be interrupting because of an urgent matter, otherwise…
“Third Elder Brother, we cracked the case. That woman is really something. She sent over all the information by this afternoon. Well, to be precise, Big Brother sent it over on her behalf, so for now, I still don’t have her contact details. We discovered new leads soon after looking through the information she delivered. But I still don’t understand how she discovered all that from just a few questions in the interrogation room.” Fifth Young Master Shen’s voice blasted through the phone the second the call was answered. His voice was laced with excitement and enthusiasm, as well as absolute admiration.
He had thought Chu Wuyou was only speaking nonsense in the interrogation room but little did he know she would unearth such an earth-shattering secret!
Ye Lanchen remained silent, his focused attention on the bathroom. The door to the bathroom was shut hence he could not catch a glimpse of Chu Wuyou. He heard the sound of water flowing but only she would know if she was actually taking a shower.
In actuality, he already knew what Fifth Young Master Shen had just told him. She had put a lot of effort into her escape this morning, thus it was natural she would not reveal anything that Shen Ting could use against her.
It did not matter. He had already employed his man to investigate the matter and he was confident to find out the truth soon.
“Turns out the answer was not too complicated. It’s just that no one considered that Mu Shaobai has a conjoined twin brother. How did that woman learn that?” Fifth Young Master Shen disregarded Ye Lanchen’s silence and continued speaking to himself. Perhaps he was already used to it. “Are all criminal psychologists this powerful? They see through lies by merely posing a couple of questions.”
“Did you call me just to tell me this nonsense?” Ye Lanchen sounded nonchalant yet his voice reeked of intimidation.
“Of course not, Third Elder Brother. I have discovered new leads regarding that woman.” Fifth Young Master Shen detected the hint of anger in Ye Lanchen’s voice and he finally arrived at the main point while laughing slyly.
He dared not interrupt Third Elder Brother at this hour unless he had something extremely important to tell!!
