Qin Yutong sighed in disappointment when she realized Chu Wuyou was truly disinterested in Ye Lanchen romantically. However, that did not stop her from probing further. "Are you really not bothered at all?"

Chu Wuyou rolled her eyes at the question.

Qin Yutong ignored the other person's reaction and started analyzing on her own. "Based on these photos, I conclude that they have an unusual relationship. Look, this one here shows them entering the hotel together, and there's one more that reveals the woman leaving Ye Lanchen's house. His expression has also softened whenever she's around. It's obvious that they've known each other for a while and have remained in touch all this while. The earliest photos trace back to seven years ago but the most recent ones were taken only about a month ago. What makes it suspicious is that news similar to these have always been suppressed by the media. The public never got to learn about this and even I failed to unearth this gossip. I wouldn't have known if not for Momo."

"This woman is a famous model but she's been pursuing her career in Europe, thus there's no information online about her identity or family background. However, she's always been working with big-names and well-known companies. Why do you think she's capable of that?" Qin Yutong's words were concealed with innuendo but Chu Wuyou did not seem too bothered.

Qin Yutong sighed at her friend's indifference and spoke more straightforwardly, "She reached out to Ye Lanchen during each visit to Jin City, or perhaps I should say that she only visits Jin City because of Ye Lanchen. Besides, she stayed in his house during most of her visits. What do you think of the relationship between this woman and your husband?"

This was Qin Yutong's major concern; she wished to know about the relationship between Ye Lanchen and the woman in question.

"It's for the best if she's his lover," Chu Wuyou replied nonchalantly and a smile formed on her face.

This was the ultimate truth; she had never been more honest in her life than this particular moment.

If Ye Lanchen was indeed in love with this woman, he would not have married Chu Wuyou simply because of that incident that happened five years ago. In other words, he probably was not that man she encountered five years ago.

Therefore, her contract marriage with Ye Lanchen would be less complicated than she had thought. That meant the concerns she had because of him could wholly dissipate.

However, this inference did not explain why he married Chu Wuyou instead of that woman.

Qin Yutong's lips twitched as she glared at her friend. "I really want to smack you in the head right now. You're now Ye Lanchen's legal wife, his legal wife! Have you heard of the saying the pavilion closest to the water enjoys moonlight first? You should take this opportunity to turn this make-believe into a long-term reality. You wouldn't be blessed with the luck to meet another man like Ye Lanchen again in another million years!"

Long-term reality?! Chu Wuyou flinched at the thought of that. That was the last thing she ever wanted.

"Why wouldn't you appropriate such a first-rate man to yourself? You can accomplish that in a matter of seconds." Qin Yutong was sincere in her wish for Chu Wuyou's happiness. Ye Lanchen had already married her; why did she not want to devise it into a long-term commitment?

"…"

Chu Wuyou remained silent but her eyes were glued to the screen. The woman in the photo was extremely attractive and she had the perfect figure. However, Chu Wuyou could not help but feel a trickle of familiarity at the woman's face, especially that photo where she smiled gently while looking both tender and displeased at the same time. The familiar face triggered a strange feeling in Chu Wuyou that was impossible to explain in words.

"Mommy, what are you doing?" Right at this moment, Tang Zhixi pushed the door ajar and poked her fair cheeks from behind the tiny gap.

When Chu Wuyou turned to look at Tang Zhixi, an extremely peculiar thought suddenly flashed across her mind.
