“Yes.” The overly terrified Secretary Liu dared not let go of the breath he had been holding. He quickly dashed out of the room at the President’s instruction.
“I’m sure you wouldn’t want her to know we’ve seen everything earlier.” Tang Ling smiled as he darted a meaningful look at Ye Lanchen.
The latter only blinked back in silence.
“I’ll make some arrangements right away.” Fifth Young Master Shen grasped the situation and left in a matter of seconds.
“Madam, I’m here to pick you up.” Chu Wuyou was already approaching the main gate when Secretary Liu came running out.
“Secretary Liu, are you sure you’re here to pick me up? Or do you intend to stop me from leaving?” Her brows furrowed slightly as she questioned the man.
It was out of her expectations that Ye Lanchen would do this.
How did he know that she was leaving? Besides, why was he so set on her meeting him here?
The woman knew that it would be difficult to flee the scene since he even instructed Secretary Liu to pick her up. Therefore, she had no choice but to follow the latter to the men’s private room.
To her surprise, the private room was crowded. She thought initially that the room had to be quiet if he was bold enough to instruct her over.
However, the crowd in the room did not seem to acknowledge her presence. They behaved as if they were not bothered about her arrival.
Ye Lanchen, who was playing mahjong, ignored her as well. The man either did not notice her presence or he chose to pay no attention to her deliberately.
Although he was in the middle of a game, he had shifted his attention toward the woman the minute she stepped into the room.
He feared that he would lose control of himself to do something unexpected. Of course, he could not allow himself to do so in front of all these people.
Chu Wuyou could not remain standing by the door even if no one seemed to acknowledge her arrival. She trailed into the room after Secretary Liu and positioned herself on the seat nearest to Ye Lanchen after a brief moment of consideration.
She despised social events like this. He would not normally ask her to attend these kinds of events. What had gotten into him today?
Ye Lanchen focused his attention on the game without looking or speaking to her. However, the gloomy expression on his face brightened visibly upon discovering that she had taken the initiative to sit next to him.
Naturally, the woman sensed the strange atmosphere in the air although she could not fathom what was going on just yet.
The man had called for her to come over and specially instructed Secretary Liu to pick her up. Despite that, he paid no notice to her once she was there. What was all this fuss about?
However, there was one thing that she was certain about – Ye Lanchen was in a terrible mood at the moment.
Of course, she would not take the initiative to speak to him unless she was spoken to. They were in a secret marriage after all. These people present in the room were probably his friends. She was in no position to speak if he did not introduce her to them first.
She only recognized Tang Ling and Fifth Young Master Shen among the crowd.
No one was paying her any attention at this moment, hence she scanned the interior of the room casually. It was already strange that Ye Lanchen had called her earlier. Things became more suspicious when Secretary Liu was instructed to pick her up. Besides, the current atmosphere in this room…
Tang Ling was seated opposite Chu Wuyou. A faint smile appeared on his face as he discovered the latter’s behavior. Indeed, she was a highly vigilant person.
“Young Master Ye.” Simultaneously, a sexy-looking woman walking seductively sauntered past Chu Wuyou and headed straight for Ye Lanchen. It seemed like she was deliberately trying to brush her large breasts against the man’s arms.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes darkened within seconds and his instinctive response was to push the woman away. However, he stole a glance at Chu Wuyou from the corner of his eyes and decided to refrain himself from pushing the sexy woman away.
He was eager to see how Chu Wuyou would respond to the circumstance.
