"Sure." A soft smile spread across Chu Wuyou's face as a warm feeling filled her heart. She was aware that Chu Ninger was still being detained in the police station. Based on her understanding of Li Min, there was no doubt the latter would inform her Grandpa that Chu Wuyou was in Jin City, and that she was the one who framed Chu Ninger.
It was highly likely that Li Min had pressured her Grandpa into making this phone call.
However, her Grandpa did not mention Chu Ninger once in the entire conversation nor had he urged her to come home.
She knew that his love for her was genuine.
"Dad, why didn't you instruct Wuyou to come home?" Li Min was completely dumbfounded. She almost raised her voice out of frustration.
"Weren't you concerned about Wuyou's safety? I just confirmed that she's perfectly fine and having fun. Both of you can now rest assured." Elder Chu cast a cold glance at the woman.
"..."
Li Min was speechless. She began gnashing her teeth in anger.
Elder Chu ignored the woman and headed upstairs.
"What should we do now?" Chu Zhijiang was also caught by surprise. It was evident that the old man had made the phone call just for show.
A vicious intention flashed across Li Min's eyes. They were both his granddaughters but the old man was too biased. How could that stupid fool possibly be better than Ninger?
However, it would not do any good to the situation even if she flew off the handle. What mattered now was freeing Ninger from the station.
Li Min suddenly received an incoming call on her cell phone."Madam, I've successfully located the First Young Lady. She's currently shopping in Yinlong Mall."
"Chu Wuyou's in Yinlong Mall. Let's go and find her." Li Min headed for the door as soon as she ended the call.
Another problem flashed across Chu Zhijiang's mind."Wuyou might not listen to us."
Li Min paused in her tracks abruptly, her gaze darkened. That stupid girl had definitely become a new person hence it was possible that she might turn a deaf ear to their advice. Her eyes suddenly twinkled with brilliance."I have an idea. Let's get He Yufei to help us."
"He Yufei? Will it work?" Chu Zhijiang twitched his brows into a frown.
"Without a doubt, since that stupid girl is still interested in He Yufei. She kept trying to approach him at the banquet last time." Li Min's face was washed over with joy at the thought of her scheme.
She made a phone call to He Yufei immediately. It was such a coincidence that the latter was also in Yinlong Mall at the moment.
"Yufei, Ninger is now being detained in the police station. You must save her." Li Min said between sobs as soon as the other person picked up the call.
"What can I do?" Yufei was aware of the incident but he decided not to meddle in it after considering the terrible things that Chu Ninger had done to him.
In the end, he was moved to pity because of Li Min's cries. The feelings he had for Chu Ninger all these years were genuine after all.
"Actuality, it's possible that Wuyou did what she did because of you. She has been harbouring a grudge against Ninger all this time because she still likes you, which is why..." Li Min paused for dramatic effect after making her intentions clear.
"You're saying that Wuyou did that to Ninger because of me?" He appeared surprised but joy soon filled his heart.
He had heard that Chu Wuyou had completely changed. Not only was she not as stupid as she used to be, she had also became smarter. Besides, Elder Chu had made it public news that he was going to pass over the entire Chu Company to her. He could still marry Chu Wuyou if she was still interested in him.
"I can't think of any other reason than that. You must help Ninger."
"Sure, I give you my word." He lifted his head and happened to notice Chu Wuyou. The corners of his lips curled upward into a gentle smile subconsciously.
He quickly hung up the call and approached the woman."Wuyou."
"What's up?" Chu Wuyou threw a cold glance in his direction. Her indifferent expression was as still as water.
"Wuyou, I know I hurt you when I broke off our engagement five years ago. It's entirely my fault. I also know that you still adore me. I'm sorry to have hurt you." An apologetic and sentimental expression appeared on his face.
She felt like laughing aloud upon hearing his words. Where did he gain that confidence from?
"Wuyou, I know that you like me and I'm willing to marry you. What happened between us has nothing to do with Ninger. Forgive her and we shall get married." He Yufei believed that he had sincerely explained his intentions. He had already promised to marry her in public and that was almost equivalent to performing a public engagement.
He made that speech in a raised voice because he was filled with confidence at this moment. He did not mind being heard by others since he believed wholeheartedly that Chu Wuyou would agree to his proposal.
A smile twitched at the corners of Chu Wuyou's mouth as she raised her head slowly to meet his gaze.
He Yufei was overjoyed upon noticing her smile and he became smug with his success. It appeared that she still liked him dearly, which was why she was currently grinning from ear to ear after listening to his confession!
He was looking forward to hearing Chu Wuyou's response because he was certain that it would be an affirmative yes. He even anticipated that she might run toward him right now to give him an affectionate embrace.
Simultaneously, Ye Lanchen's face fell as he watched them from the level above. He wondered if she dared to say yes!!!
