Chapter 164: Third Young Master Ye Is Jealous (II)
“What’s the matter? Is sothing wrong?” ng Ruoting was taken aback and her eyes darted from Ye Lanchen to Chu Wuyou. She realized the awkwardness in the air, judging by the darkened expression on Ye Lanchen’s face.
Ye Lanchen refused to comnt but continued glaring at Chu Wuyou as if he was expecting an answer from the latter.
“Um, I’ll return to my room and leave you two alone.” Chu Wuyou assud she should make herself scarce at a ti like this. She could not stay here to be the unwanted third guest.
Chu Wuyou mumbled quickly and dashed upstairs to her room before Ye Lanchen could say anything.
His face overcast with frustration within seconds.
“Who is she, if not the housekeeper?” ng Ruoting realized she must have mistaken that woman’s identity as soon as she noticed the gloomy expression on his face. He appeared as if soone had dug out his ancestor’s grave. Evidently, that woman was not the new housekeeper.
It was ng Ruoting who ca up with that conclusion. That woman had not explicitly agreed with her.
“Your partner?”
“Lover?”
“Girlfriend?”
ng Ruoting started the guessing ga without waiting for Ye Lanchen to reply. In fact, she was not expecting an answer from him. She knew him well enough to know that he normally retreated to silence when being posed with questions like these.
“I’m married,” Ye Lanchen confessed to interrupt her guessing ga. All her estimations were wrong anyway.
“You? You’re married?” ng Ruoting could not help but shriek. Her face was washed over by disbelief as the truth was completely out of her expectation.
ng Ruoting gulped back her surprise. She blinked back as if suddenly arriving at a conclusion. “So, she’s your young wife?”
What did she an by young wife? He was not that old, was he? He was only four years older than her.
Of course, he did not deny it and ng Ruoting realized she had made the correct guess this ti. She attempted a sardonic smile all of a sudden. “Why do I feel like your young wife is not really into you? It seems like she’s deliberately trying to match us up.”
“You’re talking too much.” Ye Lanchen threw her a cold glance. His threatening tone was laced with evident intimidation.
That damn woman had made it extrely clear and he did not want ng Ruoting to remind him of the obvious.
Right at this mont, he had the urge to strangle that damn woman.
He felt even more frustrated when he noticed ng Ruoting had finished devouring all the food on the table.
He did not have the opportunity to try his wife’s cooking yet even an outsider was more fortunate than him.
“Hey, are you mad at now? I’m just ssing with you. You were not this moody before.” A hint of excitent flashed across ng Ruoting’s eyes as if she had discovered the New World.
It usually took more than this to anger him.
However, it was obvious that he was actually annoyed this ti, all because of a trivial matter.
“Is it possible that she behaves this way because of another reason? What do you think?” Satisfied of her full belly, ng Ruoting’s curiosity was piqued.
Ye Lanchen regarded her with indifference yet his eyebrows were locked into a slight frown. He failed to comprehend the aning behind her sudden remark.
“Do you think that she’s actually jealous but only pretending to be nonchalant? And now she’s retreated to the room, feeling deeply hurt?” ng Ruoting thought this was highly likely to be true. After all, he was an excellent man irresistible to most won.
This caught Ye Lanchen by surprise. He regarded ng Ruoting once more before heading upstairs in great strides.
