At this moment, Fifth Young Master Shen was more anxious to read the results than Ye Lanchen. The former extended his hand quickly to grab the document and began scanning the lines.
Ye Lanchenâs narrowed gaze twinkled yet he did not steal a glance at the document. He seemed to be lost in his own thoughts.
âThird Elder Brother...â When Fifth Young Master Shen was finished, he raised his head and lifted his eyes to meet Ye Lanchenâs gaze. He parted his lips to speak but hesitated for a brief second. âItâs better if you read it yourself.â
Ye Lanchen remained silent. He exhaled slowly and silently before extending his arm to retrieve the document handed over by Fifth Young Master Shen. A person with eagle eyes would notice that right at this very moment, Ye Lanchenâs movement seemed hesitant and stiff.
Ye Lanchen was dazed for a couple of seconds before lowering his head to read the results eventually. His body froze momentarily yet his face did not reveal any emotion.
He was contemplating what had gone wrong.
He witnessed with his own eyes that she had used the drinking glass hence it must not have been a mistake. In other words, the evidence on the pen had been tampered with.
âThird Elder Brother, I told you so. Chu Wuyou really is not capable of all that.â Emotions chased over Fifth Young Master Shenâs features in quick succession whilst he enquired cautiously, âThird Elder Brother, youâll divorce Chu Wuyou, right?â
Third Elder Brother would probably divorce Chu Wuyou now that he had learned she was not the woman from five years ago.
Ye Lanchen, who had been keeping himself calm, suddenly glared coldly at Fifth Young Master Shen.
Why would he divorce his wife?! He had gone through all the trouble of getting married to her.
Indeed, he had married Chu Wuyou because he suspected she was the woman from five years ago, and he was still investigating further into that matter.
However, even if the end results proved that Chu Wuyou was not the woman from five years ago, the option to divorce her was still definitely out of question.
He was not a man that would resort to divorce easily.
The reason he signed the marriage contract in the first place was because he feared she would disagree. He feared that pushing her too hard would result in her trying to flee again.
He had the period of a year, after all. He was confident that he could make her fall in love with him within this one year.
He still believed, however, that Chu Wuyou was that woman from five years ago.
âThird Elder Brother, did I say something wrong?â Fifth Young Master Shen who met the formerâs gaze shuddered involuntarily. Did he? Did he say something wrong?
Why was Third Elder Brother glaring at him that way?
âShow me the security camera footage from when she was interrogating.â Ye Lanchen ignored the question. His voice sounded evidently cold when he spoke next.
âWe donât have it anymore. Remember that the security camera broke down previously? It was fixed after her departure but all the footage involving her was destroyed.â Fifth Young Master Shen appeared frustrated when he mentioned this. He had initially looked down upon that woman. He desired to reinspect the footage of her interrogation process later, only to find out that all the recordings were ruined.
âThen why are you so certain that sheâs used that pen?â Ye Lanchen sounded nonchalant yet his piercing gaze appeared absolutely terrifying.
âShe scribbled several symbols during the interrogation process. I witnessed it with my own eyes, as well as Liu Dalu who was in the interrogation room with her. Thereâs no mistake to that.â Fifth Young Master Shen trembled under his Third Elder Brotherâs scrutiny and his voice was evidently several octaves lower than normal.
âShow me the notes she left behind.â Ye Lanchen twitched his eyebrows into a frown and his eyes darkened.
âSure.â Fifth Young Master Shen dared not refuse and retrieved the aforementioned almost instantaneously.
A hint of brilliance flashed across Ye Lanchenâs eyes when he discovered the few symbols and his eyes widened gradually. These symbols...
