Chapter 44
Chapter 44: His Prey
Chu Wuyou’s phone conversation lasted for nearly an hour. Her daughter had not seen her for a very long time which made her particularly clingy.
Her daughter enjoyed her company whereas her son was independent. The girl was naive and lovely while the boy was mischievous. Both children were adorable.
She hid herself from that man five years ago, but little did she know that she would receive two babies in return. She never regretted giving birth to them. On the contrary, she thought they were the greatest gifts God could give her.
When Chu Wuyou finally hung up, Secretary Liu let out an obvious sigh of relief. The phone call was very long. He checked the time and realized that the call lasted for 58 minutes. Another two minutes and it would be an hour.
A one-hour phone call proved how much Chu Wuyou and the other party longed and yearned for each other.
What surprised Secretary Liu more was that the President had waited in his car for an hour. During that period, he even canceled an important meeting on behalf of the President.
He hardly understood why someone like the President would do such a thing.
He simply could not read the President’s mind. Why did the President wait for so long and what was he up to?
There was no reaction from the President when First Young Lady Chu hung up.
Chu Wuyou adjusted her seat after she hung up. When she wound up the window, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She stared directly at Ye Lanchen’s car.
At that exact moment, one could say that she accurately made eye contact with Ye Lanchen.
Ye Lanchen’s car window was tinted so she could not see what was going on inside the car.
Ye Lanchen could see her clearly but she could not see him.
Chu Wuyou’s heart skipped a beat. However, she did not show any signs of shock. She continued to wind up the window as she slowly turned her head back to the front.
It made her gaze look like a nonchalant glance.
She instinctively started the car once the window was shut, and drove away. Everything that happened a while ago seemed normal.
Ye Lanchen curled his lips in his car. Such alertness! Such an accurate judgment! Such speedy reflexes! Such caution!
He was sitting quietly in his car which was parked a distance from Chu Wuyou’s. Chu Wuyou somehow still noticed that something was off and a mere glance helped her target his car.
She had earlier felt that something was amiss without having seen anything.
It was also remarkable for her to remain calm and composed after realizing that something was wrong. She even left the parking lot in a natural and collected manner.
Big Brother would have applauded her actions too if he was here.
All of this reminded Ye Lanchen of the woman from that night!
Not everyone possessed her high level of observation and reaction. These abilities were not something that could be attained overnight either. It would have to take at least five years to develop such an ability.
Ye Lanchen refused to believe that Chu Wuyou was not hiding anything.
The woman had been cured of her illness, but it was far-fetched to say that she had changed into a completely different person.
He was suspicious of her five years ago, but all evidence proved otherwise.
Five years later, she reappeared in his line of sight and became his prey once more. He would not let her off so easily this time.
He wanted to see how long she could keep up this charade.
