My 100-Day Secret Marriage With The Boss

Chapter 217: Caught In The Act By Third Young Master Ye (VII)

“Mommy, is your husband a fierce man?” Tang Zhixi blinked blankly, her shaky voice laced with concern.

“He’s not fierce.” Chu Wuyou’s lips twitched at the unexpected question.

Ye Lanchen was not a fierce person. She had never seen him acting fierce or being in a bad temper since the first day they met. However, a person that was not fierce could be dangerous too. The fact that he did never get into a bad temper made him a more terrifying person.

It was already past eight o’clock in the evening when Tang Zhixi fell asleep. Chu Wuyou rose to her feet quietly and informed Qin Yutong before heading to the villa in a taxi.

The clock showed half-past nine when she hurried back to the villa. She was surprised to find the interior of the house in complete darkness. Was Aunt Li not in tonight?

Aunt Li who heard the commotion each evening when Chu Wuyou returned would come to receive the latter by the door.

Or maybe Aunt Li had left the house to deal with some personal affairs?

Without giving it too much thought, Chu Wuyou entered the passcode and opened the door.

The corners of Ye Lanchen’s lips twitched into a terrifying smile upon hearing the commotion. She was a punctual person indeed. He mentioned that he would be home by ten o’clock and she showed up at half-past nine.

What perfect timing.

The woman turned on the lights and changed into the house slippers. It was only until she walked into the living room that she discovered Ye Lanchen who was sitting on the couch.

Her entire body froze on the second she landed her eyes on the man who was sitting on the couch.

Why was he home?

Why did he not turn on the lights if he was home?

When did he come home?

The series of questions kept flashing across her mind but she dared not enquire anything at this moment.

She shifted her attention to the bottle of red wine in front of the man. The bottle was empty, only a tiny bit of wine was left in the glass. It appeared that he was almost finished with the entire bottle of wine.

The fact that the lights were not turned on meant the sky was still bright when he came home, thus there was no need for him to turn them on.

Therefore, the woman came to the conclusion easily that the man was home for a long time. Perhaps it should be said that he had been waiting for her for a very long time.

Even though Aunt Li was nowhere in sight, Chu Wuyou figured based on the expression that hung on the man’s face right this moment that he must have known the truth.

He had figured it all out, yet he waited for such a long time for her to come home!!!

She trembled slightly at the thought of that.

Ye Lanchen leaned back into the couch gently and studied her through slightly narrowed eyes without saying a word. His expression did not seem too different than usual.

However, she felt that the temperature in the room had dropped so low that she began to shiver. The dangerous intent that filled the entire room terrified her so much that she dared not take another breath.

Earlier today, Tang Zhixi enquired her if Ye Lanchen was a fierce man.

He really was not a fierce person yet his behavior at this moment struck terror into her heart. She was absolutely terrified.

Chu Wuyou gulped back her fear instinctively. She had the urge to retreat several steps backward.

The man did not utter a word, neither did the woman. She remained standing there motionless as if her legs had rooted to the ground. She was too frightened by Ye Lanchen’s current expression to even budge an inch.

A heavy silence fell upon the room. Chu Wuyou was the most patient person she ever knew yet the quietness in that moment was unbearable.

“Come over here.” Ye Lanchen held the glass in one hand and swirled the wine gently. His movements seemed casual and nonchalant. His gaze swept past her for a split second before returning to study the wine glass in hand.

His voice sounded deeper than normal though it was not laced with anger.

The woman became more intimidated when the man behaved like this. She hoped he could at least lash out his anger because then she would know what she was dealing with.

She could not help but tremble again upon looking at the man’s face.
