Chapter 219: Caught In The Act By Third Young Master Ye (IX)

Ye Lanchen finally figured something out – he had married Chu Wuyou to infuriate himself.

The woman could not defend herself from the crimes that he listed out because it was the truth.

“Give me a reason.” His voice sounded several octaves lower as he tried hard to suppress the anger surging in him. He wanted to know the reasons behind her behavior.

“I’m at fault. I shouldn’t lie to you, I…” She knew that she was at wrong this time thus she admitted her guilt.

“I want a reason.” Ye Lanchen interrupted her abruptly and he fixed an indifferent gaze on her. He desired to know the reason behind her decision.

Suddenly, he placed the wine gla.s.s on the coffee table and leaned his body forward slightly.

Thinking that he was about to rise to his feet, Chu Wuyou stepped back instinctively without realizing that the couch was right behind her. She lost her balance and fell back into the couch.

Although she was not afraid of anything in the world and was always calm and coolheaded, the man’s small act of placing the wine gla.s.s on the table had terrified her so much that she fell back onto the couch.

Her instinctive reaction was to rise to her feet immediately but Ye Lanchen made a move before she could. He grabbed her in the next second and suddenly leaned toward her direction.

Chu Wuyou tried to dodge from his touch subconsciously but it was to no avail. She was currently sitting on the couch and being held by the man. The unexpected force pushed her back into the couch.

They suddenly found themselves in an extremely flirtatious position.

She was experiencing difficulty breathing. This made her even more agitated than she already was.

“Tell me, what have you been doing behind my back?” Ye Lanchen pressed his body against hers tightly, even both her hands were held down to prevent her from struggling free. She felt oppressed by the power he exuded.

For a brief second, Chu Wuyou felt smothered by the man. She had been forced into a powerless position.

“I promise I didn’t do anything that’s unfaithful to our marriage.” She knew that men normally get furious and suspicious about the woman’s loyalty under such circ.u.mstances thus she made the clarification quickly.

Although their contract marriage was not constructed based on love, an arrogant man like Ye Lanchen would not allow that to happen either.

“I believe you.” His lips twitched into a smile.

In fact, the first possibility that flashed across his mind was if she had gone out on a date with another man. After all, it was natural to come to that conclusion since she had been leaving the house early and coming back late at night.

Especially since he was aware that her Senior was also present in Jin City at the moment. He could not help but wonder if she had gone out to meet that Senior of hers.

However, he believed her words with not a shred of doubt.

Ye Lanchen believed Chu Wuyou because he knew she would either remain silent or speak the truth.

Besides, he had had his men watching the person named Tang closely all this while. He would have been notified if she had indeed gone to meet her Senior.

The anger in him subsided greatly upon hearing her clarification.

She blinked back in confusion, not knowing why the man believed her words without question. Was it because he thought she was too ugly to be seductive?

If he believed her words, then could he let her go now?

However, in the next second, he…
