Chu Wuyou got out of the car not long after leaving the police station. Although Fifth Young Master Shen agreed to get into Ye Lanchens way as a favor to her, she still needed to behave prudently just in case.

Besides, she had a lot to do, so she could not allow the police to deliver her to her destination. Otherwise, the truth would unfold in no time.

Chu Wuyou hailed a taxi and headed straight to the hotel. She could not return home looking like this, which was why she had taken care of everything she needed beforehand and left them at the hotel.

When she finally arrived at the hotel, she removed her makeup immediately and took a long shower to clean off the scent that lingered on her body thoroughly. She took extra care in cleaning her hair for fear that any trace of evidence left behind could be used against her. After all, she was ambushed by Ye Lanchen at the police station today hence it was necessary to be more vigilant than normal.

After the shower, she blew dry her wet hair and the wavy curls from earlier were straightened. Then, she applied her usual freckles across her face, put on that pair of old-fashioned glasses, and changed into a different outfit.

She transformed into her regular look in perfect harmony.

However, Chu Wuyou still felt uneasy as she was reminded of Ye Lanchens attitude from last night and the events that happened earlier today.

She suspected before this that Ye Lanchen could be the man from five years ago. Todays incident only further reinforced her estimation.

If that was the truth, then Ye Lanchen could be the birth father to her two children.

Chu Wuyous entire body froze at the thought of that. Could it be possible?

Five years ago, she raped him and diminished his right to meet his two children. Would Ye Lanchen shred her into pieces the moment he found out the truth?

She reckoned Ye Lanchen would if he really was the man in question.

However, what concerned her more at this moment was the safety of her two darlings.

She wondered if Ye Lanchen had already left the Public Security Bureau.

Chu Wuyou did not want to take up too much time hence she left the hotel quickly and returned to the villa.

There was something fishy about Ye Lanchen setting her up in the Public Security Bureau earlier today. She was also reminded of his strange behavior from the night before. Therefore, she figured it would be the best if she returned to the villa right away.

She did not notice Ye Lanchens car upon arriving at the villa and heaved a sigh of relief as she rejoiced at the discovery.

Where have you been? Chu Wuyou opened the door to the villa and before she had the time to change into the home slippers, however, an indifferent voice entered her ears. No matter how cool-headed she was, she felt shivers running down her spine as she was caught by utter surprise.

Ye Lanchen was home? Had he come home earlier because he was skeptical of her?

Besides, his tone was laced with intimation, perhaps

Chu Wuyou dared not break out of character despite being extremely worried. She changed into the slippers and entered the villa. Husband, youre home earlier today, she said with a smile.

Instead of replying, Ye Lanchen rose to his height and walked toward her, one step at a time, until they were one feet apart. His cold stare was fixed on her face.

Chu Wuyou felt somewhat diffident under his penetrating gaze and she opened her mouth intending to speak.

Suddenly, Ye Lanchen raised his hand and directed it toward her face. Chu Wuyou thought he was going to caress her face.

Maybe he was trying to pinch her face, viciously and cruelly. This thought flashed across her mind because his twisted features at this time were exceptionally frightening.

Out of her expectation, his hand reached out to her ear right away and he pinched down on her earlobe. He shifted his stare in the same direction simultaneously.

Chu Wuyous brows twitched into a slight frown as she was rather perplexed. Why was he touching her ear? Was there something wrong with her ear?
