  “Do you like it?” Ye Lanchen shifted his attention to Chu Wuyou. The corners of his lips curled upward into a smile and his voice was laced with gentleness.

  “Yes, it’s delicious.” Chu Wuyou blinked back blankly at the surprise yet a sweet smile soon spread across her face.

  “Go ahead and have some more.” The beam on Third Young Master Ye’s face became wider as he scooped more food into her bowl.

  It was an honor not many could enjoy. He had never even treated Elder Chu with such affection.

  Almost immediately, Third Young Master Ye reached for another piece of fish. He removed all the bones cautiously before placing it into Chu Wuyou’s bowl.

  That tenderness and consideration awed the audience!!!

  Elder Chu’s jaw hit the ground at the sight in front of him. The mustache above his lips twitched. No one knew if it came out of fear or envy.

  Ye Lanzhang, on the other hand, almost had his eyes pop out of his head.

  Chu Wuyou was also dumbfounded but soon she smirked internally. ‘Third Young Master Ye, could you be any more cunning, any more two-faced?’


  He blinded the eyes of his audience by publicly displaying his affection. His impeccable performance hit them in the face like a cold, hard slap.

  Given the circumstances, neither side would gain if Ye Lanchen treated fire with fire. On the flip side, if he reacted with indifference, it might result in a deterrent effect but could not mediate the dispute.

  His nonchalant response solved the thorny situation successfully. He was truly a master.

  Since the beginning of time, it was believed that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were natural enemies. It always created a difficult situation within the family but the relationship could be softened if the husband knew how to defend his wife.

  No one else in the family dared to look down on the daughter-in-law as long as the son treated his wife with respect.

  It would be of little significance even if someone else behaved deliberately provocative.

  Ye Lanchen proved this to be true with his actions.

  Jin Mingzhen clenched her jaw in fury. She knew that further incitement would not work if Ye Lanchen himself was not bothered about Chu Wuyou’s flaws.

  In short, Ye Lanchen’s attitude toward the whole situation mattered the most. She was about to go mad with jealousy upon seeing his protective behavior toward Chu Wuyou. She was also a woman member of the Ye family but her man had never defended her this way before.

  Elder Chu was dissatisfied yet there was nothing more he could say upon seeing Ye Lanchen’s support for Chu Wuyou.

  Besides, he had already expressed his thoughts earlier in such an explicit manner but Chu Wuyou could not seem to care less. She did not appear the slightest bit upset or embarrassed. What more could he possibly say?

  He felt as if he was throwing punches against a pile of cotton. He had almost killed himself from the exasperation but the other party still behaved indifferently.

  The dinner went on fairly smoothly because Jin Mingzhen dared not play any more tricks. Ye Bowen, however, still did not appear. Naturally, Chu Wuyou would not bring it up unless someone else mentioned it first.

  “Come into my study,” Elder Chu instructed Ye Lanchen the minute the latter rested his chopsticks on the table.

  Granny Chu seemed to be in discomfort hence she retreated to her room too. In actuality, Granny Chu had something else planned.

  Jin Mingzhen silently pulled Ye Lanzhang across the further end of the room.

  “What now?” Unpleasantness was written all over Ye Lanzhang’s face. He did not show any respect for his mother and treated her no better than he treated the servants.

  “Aren’t you worried for the slightest bit? The old man had announced before that he would transfer the stock ownership of Ye business over to you if Ye Lanchen did not get married within a month, but Ye Lanchen is now married.” Jin Mingzhen was not upset by her son’s attitude as if she was used to it. Again, she whispered softly like a blown-sand, “If Elder Chu really transferred the stock ownership of Ye business over to Ye Lanchen then you would be left with nothing.”


  “What should we do now?” Ye Lanzhang narrowed his eyes and his expression turned solemn.

  “I’ve got a marvelous idea.” Jin Mingzhen darted her eyes toward Chu Wuyou who was sitting quietly in the hall and a sly smile spread across her face. “We can’t deal with Ye Lanchen but we can plot against that fool. As long as the stupid woman falls into our trap, I guarantee Ye Lanchen would not be spared as much as a single cent.”


  Jin Mingzhen thought she could play the bully against Chu Wuyou.

  She never would have thought that scheming against Chu Wuyou would open up the series of misfortunes that would soon befall her.
