For reasons unknown to himself, Ye Lanchen felt his heart calming down instantly upon hearing the last thing Chu Wuyou said.

  He believed her completely, knowing that she would either speak the truth or nothing at all.

  “Stay away from Tang Ling in the future. You can’t meet him without me by your side.” In spite of that, he was still concerned because he knew the other man’s strength the best. He figured it was better to be safe than sorry.

  “Tang Ling is your Big Brother but he’s not related to me. I wouldn’t have the chance to meet him without you.” The woman suddenly felt like laughing upon hearing his words. She had nothing to do with Tang Ling so why would the latter want to meet her without reason.

  A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. He already knew her fairly well after spending all this time together.

  She appeared tough but was actually a big softie that valued friendship, not to mention always eager to show support to people that mattered to her. Otherwise, she would not have stood up for him the last time Elder Ye flew off the handle in Ye Residence.

  Evidently, she did not know Tang Ling before and had no idea about the latter’s intention toward her.

  Therefore, in her opinion, the man was a complete outsider not involved in her life.

  Perhaps she would not have known about him if not for Ye Lanchen.

  However, one confusion remained – why would Tang Ling know her if she had no idea who he was at all?

  Besides, Ye Lanchen reckoned the man probably knew her for quite some time now, judging from the way he explicitly took her side from the beginning.

  Even Lil Seven noticed this as well. Tang Ling was not at all reserved with his eagerness, as if wanting to tell the whole world his intentions.

  Third Young Master Ye became worried the more he thought about it.

  “Tang Ling has an unusual way of doing things. No one can anticipate what he’ll do because that man’s too treacherous, sly, and dangerous. Therefore, if he asks for a meet up, you mustn’t go alone without first letting me know,” the man said seriously. He surely went all out for his wife.

  He who despised those that spoke behind one’s back criticized another for the first time.

  However, upon remembering that the other man was trying to steal his wife, he figured a harmless criticism or two was not too bad. Besides, he was only speaking of the truth. Tang Ling was exactly a man of those traits.

  In short, he must separate those two to ensure Tang Ling would not harass her.

  That man would do anything in the world.

  Chu Wuyou’s lips twitched as she tried hard to stifle a laugh.

  Did he just call Tang Ling treacherous and sly?

  Could anyone be more treacherous and sly than Ye Lanchen himself?

  Undoubtedly, she could not say it out to his face.

  “You hear me?” The man frowned slightly when his words were met with silence.

  “Yup, I heard you,” she replied after recollecting herself.

  “Have you kept my words in mind?” He was still worried.

  “Yup, I’ll remember that.” She nodded as she smiled internally. This person was getting more childish and domineering each day. She decided not to argue with such a childish and domineering man like him.

  Therefore, she would agree to anything he said.

  Satisfied with her response, he finally felt reassured.

  He reckoned she would remember all his words.

  She would not entertain Tang Ling as the man was but a stranger to her.

  However, Ye Lanchen forgot about something.

  Life was unpredictable!!!
