Chu Wuyou seemed to be sleeping soundly on the bed. She did not stir even the slightest bit despite the disturbance coming from the door.
That pair of old-fashioned glasses had been removed and her naked tiny face was presented right in front of Ye Lanchen's eyes. He gently placed his palm on her face and pressed down softly on the freckles. He held it in place for several seconds for the chemical to work its magic. Then, he started rubbing it with a little bit of force.
His movement was tender as if fearful of waking her.
He did not try to remove all the freckles but selected a tiny area to begin. The chemicals seemed to have taken effect slowly as her skin became visibly brighter.
However, the freckles remained in place.
Stunned, he proceeded to press his slender fingers down on the spot with the most freckles.
His phone rang all of a sudden just as the tip of his fingers were about to touch her delicate skin.
Ye Lanchen did not expect his phone to ring at this hour. Startled, he retrieved his phone immediately and the fingers he hovered over Chu Wuyou's face pressed down harder subconsciously.
Chu Wuyou was a light sleeper. In actuality, she was disturbed from her sleep the moment he entered the room. She was frightened out of her wits when his palm started rubbing on her face.
Initially, she wanted to widen her eyes at the sudden touch but she feared raising his suspicions. The phone call arrived just in time. This way, she could pretend to have been stirred from her sleep "naturally."
"Husband, you're hurting me..." Upon sensing the pressure that he had subconsciously applied on her face, Chu Wuyou pouted her red lips and complained pitifully.
However, her eyes darkened as soon as she discovered the smell of chemicals on his fingers.
The words that blurted out of her mouth blasted through the other end of the phone as soon as the call was picked up...
"..."
There was a long moment of silence on the other end of the phone before someone started panting exaggeratedly.
"Third Elder Brother, you should restrain yourself even on your wedding night. Don't wear her out..." Fifth Young Master Shen's mocking tone entered his ears.
"That's right, Third Elder Brother, show some compassion for the woman..." Even Fourth Young Master Xi joined in with the jeer. f𝚛𝐞𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵ𝑒𝚕 - 🅽🅽novel
The two of them began laughing and joking noisily in the private dining room. They failed to notice Boss Tang's face turning grave.
Upon hearing their teasing, Ye Lanchen's face fell and he hung up the call immediately.
"Husband, are you trying to clean my face?" Chu Wuyou blinked her rounded eyes and stared blankly at him.
Ye Lanchen returned her gaze with darkened eyes but did not say a word.
"But I've already washed my face earlier and I did a great job." Without waiting for his reply, Chu Wuyou rubbed her face forcefully and presented her clean fingers in front of his face."There, it's clean."
The freckles remained on her face even after rubbing more than once.
Besides, there were no visible changes in the area of her face which he had tried cleaning with chemicals.
This specially-made chemical which he acquired from Big Brother was definitely effective. Maybe the freckles on her face were genuine?
Could he have made an incorrect guess? But...
"Husband, what's the matter with you?" Chu Wuyou's pure and innocent face seemed natural as well.
Upon meeting her innocent but lost regard, Ye Lanchen narrowed his gaze slightly and a complicated expression flashed across his face. It was impossible to understand what he was speculating in his mind.
Under his scrutiny, Chu Wuyou felt a shiver down her spine and tiny goosebumps quickly formed all over her body.
