“Chief Shen, I’ll withdraw myself from the case if you refuse my request.” Chu Wuyou was confident to acquire Fifth Young Master Shen’s assistance because the latter would never gamble the success of the aforementioned case.
The police would be required to release Mu Shaobai by tomorrow due to the lack of evidence.
This was the last thing Fifth Young Master Shen would wish for. He would not have requested help from her senior otherwise.
“Okay. Well, you’re ruthless,” Fifth Young Master Shen agreed through gritted teeth because he knew she was his last resort.
If Fifth Young Master Shen was skeptical of her ability earlier today, that impression had completely changed due to the recent turn of events. She managed to deceive both himself and Third Elder Brother; he could not bring himself to be dubious of her.
“Chief Shen, I’d like to thank you in advance,” Chu Wuyou replied with a smile but her melodious voice made Fifth Young Master Shen grind his teeth in hatred.
Ye Lanchen was approaching her right at this moment. However, there were numerous police cars parked in the same area waiting to be called to action. He was slightly confused which one she would be in.
Chu Wuyou noticed Ye Lanchen bypassing several other police cars and was heading toward her right now.
“Third Elder Brother, I’m sorry.” Fifth Young Master Shen took a sharp inhale and rooted himself in Ye Lanchen’s way.
“You really want to do so?” Although Ye Lanchen did not pause in his tracks earlier, Fifth Young Master Shen’s loud voice entered his ears without fail.
“Third Elder Brother, I’m sorry.” Fifth Young Master Shen was embarrassed but he had no other alternative. He would not be bothered if it was any other case but numerous lives were involved this time.
“Go on.” Chu Wuyou felt the burden being lifted off her shoulders after getting Fifth Young Master Shen on her side. Fifth Young Master Shen would not deserve the title as the chief of police if he and the entire staff failed to obstruct Ye Lanchen.
The policemen in the car listened to the conversation earlier cautiously. They knew what to do as the chief had given the green light.
Ye Lanchen narrowed his gaze upon the police car’s departure. His eyes were filled with a dangerous intent that could frighten one out of their wits. However, he gave up on his pursuit because he was fully aware of his position at the moment. If Shen Ting was determined to stop him, he would still need to spend a tremendous amount of time to be able to leave successfully.
The woman would have vanished into thin air by then.
The corners of Chu Wuyou’s lips curled into a delightful smile when she discovered the icy expression that had taken over Ye Lanchen’s face. She winded down the window, extended her hand, and waved smugly.
At this time, the car was speeding off into the direction opposite to Ye Lanchen. Coincidentally, there was some random stuff placed on the rear deck hence it was impossible for the latter to observe Chu Wuyou who was sitting in the car. The only thing he could see plainly was that hand of hers waving back at him arrogantly through the window.
In fact, Ye Lanchen did not even have a clear view of her back five years ago. Chu Wuyou was amazing in the art of disguise. Her loosely-fit but exaggerated appearance from earlier made it difficult for people to discern her curvy figure.
Ye Lanchen only remembered the pride and arrogance that she exuded. The crucial point to distinguish a person from a mere view of the back required a thorough examination of their manner and temperament. However, Chu Wuyou only revealed that side of hers in front of the person she trusted most, and she would cover it up deliberately at other times.
Inevitably, her profession required her to exude that kind of temperament from time to time.
Fifth Young Master Shen felt a heavy feeling in his chest as if he was going to cough up blood. That woman should just leave quickly but she chose this time to provoke Third Elder Brother? Such a savage.
Even he wished to seize her by the throat at this particular moment, not to mention Third Elder Brother.
An enigmatic smile appeared on Ye Lanchen’s face.
There was another reason for his surrender; he suspected Chu Wuyou was that woman from five years ago.
If Chu Wuyou was really the aforementioned person, she would undoubtedly return home after escaping from the police station.
Previously, when she leaned in toward Ye Lanchen, he noticed a red mole on the back of her ear lobe. She could place a disguise anywhere else but on such a hidden place.
He did not think that woman would go to that extent!
Therefore, he decided to hold his horses. They were already married, after all. She ran away this time but he would be able to catch her soon because he would be waiting for her at home…
