Undoubtedly, Chu Wuyou’s decision to set up Fifth Young Master Shen played a pivotal role in her whole escape.
Ye Lanchen let her go instead of blocking her because he wanted to catch a glimpse of her back. However, to his dismay, her back view did not exude the kind of pride and arrogance that he was looking for. He could not even make out her silhouette properly due to the loose-fitting outerwear.
Nonetheless, this woman was the most suspicious among all the people that stepped out of the elevators; he could not let her off the hook so easily.
However, the man that appeared out of the blue messed up his plan.
That man dragged Chu Wuyou out of the main hall and forced her into a car rudely before hurried inside the vehicle himself.
Ye Lanchen narrowed his eyes at a sudden realization and his face fell.
Right at this moment, the door to the elevator opened once again, and out came a cleaning lady.
“Where did you get this?” Emotions chased over Fifth Young Master Shen’s features in quick succession the moment he recognized the pair of heels in the cleaning lady’s hands. That woman arrived this morning wearing that exact pair of heels, even the belt that the cleaning lady was holding belonged to the woman.
Why would they fall into the hands of the cleaning lady?
“I discovered them outside of the elevator on the third floor, as well as these cosmetics. They look brand-new but were discarded by the owner nonetheless, young girls these days really don’t appreciate what they have. There’s also a cell phone. Although it’s an old-fashioned model, she shouldn’t have thrown it away just like that…” The cleaning lady who had her hands full grumbled on in annoyance.
“Third Elder Brother, that woman…” Color drained from Fifth Young Master Shen’s face. Although he had not used these cosmetic products before, he was fully aware of their purposes. He knew very well that distinct make-up styles could thoroughly transform one’s appearance.
His eyes shifted from the pair of heels to the cosmetic products and finally onto the belt. A possibility flashed across his mind as he connected the dots together…
By then, Ye Lanchen left the building as fast as lightning. He who was already doubtful arrived at the same conclusion a couple of minutes before Fifth Young Master Shen…
“You over there, gather these things to analyze for fingerprints.” Fifth Young Master Shen instructed the young policeman from earlier while not forgetting to cast a deathly stare at the latter.
All of these items belonged to that woman, hence her fingerprints had to be all over the place. This way, they could also locate the woman using her fingerprints even if Third Elder Brother failed to capture her.
Fifth Young Master Shen was unbelievably quick-witted; no wonder he was the chief of police.
Simultaneously, the car that Chu Wuyou got into had already been ignited.
“Hey bro, what do you do for a living? Your acting is exceptionally convincing.” Admiration was written all over Chu Wuyou’s face when she regarded the man who came to her rescue.
“Tell Qin Yutong to never find me again for favors like this. The accounts between us are settled,” the man replied harshly without throwing her a glance.
Chu Wuyou flinched at the acidity in his voice. What was the relationship between him and Yutong?
“Go right now. Hurry.” Color drained from Chu Wuyou’s face when she suddenly witnessed Ye Lanchen dashing out of the building toward her direction.
Ye Lanchen moved quickly and entered his car within a matter of seconds. Moreover, the other men waiting around also simultaneously got into their cars and headed toward her direction.
“F*ck. What did you do to Ye Lanchen? Why is he after you?” The man twitched his brows into a slight frown and a solemn expression washed over his face. “It seems impossible to run away, given the circumstances.”
Chu Wuyou knitted her brows as she pondered. She did not do anything that offended Ye Lanchen, did she? The truth was, she had no idea why Ye Lanchen would set a merciless ambush for her at the Public Security Bureau.
Could it be possible that he figured out her true identity? She thought otherwise.
She knew that fleeing from Ye Lanchen’s grasp at this moment was rather impossible.
Two minutes later, Ye Lanchen’s car appeared in front of the one which Chu Wuyou had entered earlier. The other cars that came a little later also blocked the path from the back.
From the looks of things, Chu Wuyou would be unable to escape even if she had wings.
