Chapter 87 - Does Her Son Look Like Him? (I)
During this time, Chu Wuyou who was focusing all her attention on her two darlings did not realize the peculiar atmosphere around her.
On the other hand, Qin Yutong who seemed rather absent-minded was walking slowly while holding Zhixi’s little hand.
All of a sudden, Tang Zhimo’s eyes twinkled with brilliance when he lifted his head and located Chu Wuyou.
In the next second, however, his face fell.
This was because he discovered Ye Lanchen who was stalking Chu Wuyou.
“Mom, someone’s on your tail.” Tang Zhimo fished for his phone and sent a text message to his mother immediately. He was fast and used no more than three seconds for the entire process.
Chu Wuyou had her phone in hand at that time. When the phone buzzed, she glanced down to read the text that appeared on the screen.
“45 degrees to your left.” Another message from Tang Zhimo.
Chu Wuyou was slightly surprised but her immediate reaction was not to look over her shoulder. Instead, she set her cell phone to selfie mode and inspected the situation behind her using the camera’s reflection.
Her career entailed dangers at unexpected times thus instinctive reaction like this was a basic move for survival.
She was dumbfounded when she discovered Ye Lanchen behind her.
It was him?
He was following her? Why?
He went away for business on the second day of their marriage and she had been staying at home, being an obedient wife. Nothing she did during these times could have raised his suspicions.
Besides, she did not feel her every move was being watched in the past few days. She coming to the airport should be a secret unknown to Ye Lanchen.
In her opinion, the wildly arrogant Ye Lanchen would not lower himself to be on someone’s tail.
A possibility flashed across Chu Wuyou’s mind. Ye Lanchen mentioned to her briefly that he would be away on a business trip for three days. She did the math quickly and realized today was the day of his return.
Perhaps it was only a coincidence that she came to the airport on the day of his return. As luck would have it, he noticed her by chance and began to trail after her.
However, she was here to pick up her children.
She did not want the public to learn about her darlings’ existence because she wished to shield them from unfounded rumors and malicious gossip.
Moreover, now that she suspected Ye Lanchen could be that man from five years ago, it further strengthened her determination to prevent him from learning the truth.
The adorable faces of both her darlings came into mind. To say that her daughter resembled her would be an understatement; but what about her son?
Ye Lanchen’s defined jawlines and prominent features were in contrast to the chubby cheeks deposited on her son’s face. In comparison, the two of them did not resemble one another.
If Ye Lanchen was indeed that man from five years ago, however, it meant that their recent marriage was founded on skepticism, a front for him to investigate the matter further. If he was to discover both the children, he might connect the dots together based on their age, even if both her darlings did not resemble him too much.
She was reminded of that man shouting threats at her through gritted teeth when she was leaving the hotel five years ago, and the images of his wicked pursuit also came flooding into her mind. She could not help but tremble slightly at the memories.
If Ye Lanchen was indeed that man, she reckoned she would be dead before she knew it, if the former finally found out about the whole truth in addition to her efforts to keep his children away from him.
By then, Qin Yutong was already approaching the arrival hall with the two little darlings.
