Chapter 177: The Consequences of Infuriating Third Young Master Ye (VII)
After a brief moment of hesitation, Zhixi, the little troublemaker, dashed into her Elder Brother’s room.
“Elder Brother, someone called Mommy earlier. He was so rude.” Tang Zhixi pouted and complained angrily.
“Who was it?” Tang Zhimo would never allow anyone to be rude to his Mommy.
“I think he’s Mommy’s husband,” she explained without holding back because she knew her Elder Brother too well.
A light flashed across the little boy’s eyes. Mommy’s husband was rude to Mommy?!
“What did he say?” Zhimo’s voice was laced with intimidation when he posed the question.
“I didn’t hear him clearly but he was so rude, so scary. How dare he threaten Mommy! He’s horrible” A flurry of emotions moved like a storm across Zhixi’s face.
“Yes, you’re right.” Zhimo nodded affirmatively. The man was indeed horrible because he was rude to Mommy and he even threatened her.
“That’s why I hung up on him.” The little girl blinked back her rounded eyes. She took pride in her actions.
“Yes, you did the right thing.” Without giving it much thought, Zhimo complimented her with another nod.
That man deserved to be hung up on since he was being rude to Mommy.
“Elder Brother, he’s so scary. What if he calls again and makes Mommy cry?” Tang Zhixi frowned slightly. She appeared concerned and worried.
This caught Zhimo by surprise and he quickly shifted his attention back to the little girl. His eyes twinkled when he questioned, “So…?”
He felt like his sister had not revealed the whole truth to him honestly.
“Therefore, I turned off Mommy’s phone. Elder Brother, do you think I did the right thing?” Tang Zhixi held the boy’s gaze expectantly. She appeared like a sweet little child that was awaiting her reward.
“Yes, you did.” Zhimo agreed with her again. Being rude and threatening Mommy were unforgivable.
“Hooray. There shouldn’t be any problem if you agree that I did the right thing.” A sweet smile spread across the little girl’s face.
Stunned, Tang Zhimo regarded his little sister silently. She finally arrived at the main point after beating around the bush for so long. Seeing as she only enquired for his opinion after turning off Mommy’s phone, it was evident that she was trying to drag him into being an accomplice.
So that he could back her up if Mommy became upset.
It appeared that he had underestimated his little sister.
“Elder Brother, I’m heading back to my room now.” Zhixi was jumping up and down in joy after accomplishing her mission.
The corners of Zhimo’s lips twitched as he watched her receding figure. He had just been framed by his naive and innocent little sister!!
However, who else would protect the little girl if not him.
On the other hand, Ye Lanchen’s face darkened and the coldness in his eyes became more terrifying after failing to reach Chu Wuyou. He had no idea where she could be.
Perhaps she had returned to Chu Residence?
He looked up the number to their landline and made the phone call without any hesitation.
“Hello, who would you like to speak to?” One of the servants answered the phone.
Before Ye Lanchen could reply, however, a voice blasted through the phone from the other side.
“Father, it’s Wuyou who placed the charges on Ninger. The police said they will not release Ninger as long as Wuyou doesn’t drop the charges. Can you please get Wuyou to come home and change her mind? Ninger told me that Wuyou is in Jin City yet she doesn’t come home. Father, aren’t you worried about what she’s doing out there?” Li Min was pleading yet she did not miss the opportunity to slander Chu Wuyou.
“Why would Wuyou press charges on Ninger if she didn’t frame her in the beginning? Ninger is only getting the punishment she deserves. Besides, Wuyou must have her reasons for not returning home. She’s a responsible adult and she knows what she’s doing. Why should I worry?” Elder Chu was a bright man. He saw through Li Min’s scheming mind easily.
Ye Lanchen narrowed his eyes. He had learned that Chu Wuyou had not returned to Chu Residence.
He hung up the call immediately.
Where else would she be if she had not returned to the family residence?
Although they were legally married, he never once restricted her freedom of movement.
Perhaps he was pampering her too much.
Should he plant a tracker on her so he could locate her wherever she went?
