Chapter 40: A Problem, Indeed

“Why did First Young Lady Chu say that? Hasn’t she recovered?” Secretary Liu was shocked too. “Did her illness relapse due to shock?”

Relapse?! Ye Lanchen narrowed his eyes. He could not detect any hint of relapse from Chu Wuyou.

The answer as to why she replied in such a way would be revealed very soon.

“Not yet?” The reporter who had planted herself near Chu Wuyou spoke excitedly as if she had discovered a new continent. “Did the doctor say that you haven’t recovered yet?”

The doctor’s words mattered when it came to such issues.

The reporter was initially a.s.signed to defame Chu Wuyou and make everyone believe that she was still ill.

She could not be happier when Chu Wuyou said so herself?

“Not the doctor, but the police.” Chu Wuyou regarded the reporter with an innocent expression and blinked.

“The police? Why?” The reporter lost her composure. What did this have to do with the police?

“I can’t tell you.” Chu Wuyou shook her head rapidly and anxiety crossed her face. She appeared to be hiding something.

The crowd was aghast. Why would the police say such a thing to someone? Chu Wuyou’s frantic look was enough to explain everything…

Everyone could only think of one likelihood; Chu Wuyou might have injured or even killed someone but she had not fully recovered yet, so…

Chu Wuyou lifted both her arms as she spoke and was held by someone else. No one knew whether she did so on purpose or by accident.

The crowd suddenly noticed a set of knives in Chu Wuyou’s hands. The various shapes of sharp knives were placed in a transparent plastic pouch.

Everyone was suddenly frightened, especially those who were standing near her. They were so horrified that their legs became weak.

Chu Wuyou was prepared with tools in her hands if she did go into a frenzy and decide to start killing people.

An insane person who kills would not be responsible for her crimes.

The same reporter who had been badgering Chu Wuyou for some time began to retreat instinctively. This gave Chu Wuyou her much-needed personal s.p.a.ce.

The other remaining reporters fell silent. They feared that uttering even one wrong word would trigger First Young Lady Chu and lead her to start chopping people up.

The few reporters who had lingered around Chu Wuyou decided to stop hollering. The reporters had nothing else to ask or say without their constant cries and queries. They felt rather embarra.s.sed and wanted to leave.

Chu Wuyou had gained the upper hand over the entire situation.

“Miss Chu, we just want to interview you on some matters. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to,” uttered someone.

“Yes, people are curious about what happened five years ago. Hence, we represent everyone by asking these questions. Don’t be angry Miss Chu. Chill.”

Chu Ninger realized that something was amiss and wanted to leave quietly.

“Why don’t all of you ask my sister? She’s intelligent and knows everything. She was also present at the incident five years ago. In fact, she’s more familiar with that issue compared to me.” Chu Wuyou smiled, displaying a pure and innocent expression.

The fun had just begun and more was to come!

Ha, as if Chu Ninger could leave that easily!

Ye Lanchen’s lips curled upwards slowly. He stared at the hint of a smile that emerged at the bottom of Chu Wuyou’s eyes. She looked alluring and suggestive.

Indeed!!!
