My 100-Day Secret Marriage With The Boss

“Okay,” Chu Wuyou replied gently as she received the suitcase and then waved goodbye at Ye Lanchen who was sitting in the car. “Goodbye, husband.”

Ye Lanchen said nothing but the expression on his face softened visibly.

Secretary Liu revealed a sly smile. How could he not realize the seemingly arrogant and standoffish President was actually kind and tender on the inside!

Chu Wuyou waited until he left before heading for the door, the suitcase dragging behind her. She keyed in the passcode and the door opened.

She headed inside to return the call to her Senior right away, only to find out that the latter’s phone had been turned off.

Brows knitted together, she wondered why her Senior’s phone was turned off.

He would never do so unless under special circumstances.

Chu Wuyou glanced at the time and noticed it was only a little over 11 am, which meant it should be slightly after 7 pm over in Country M. Normally, both of her darling children should still be awake at this time.

She tried the landline this time around.

“Mommy, Uncle Tang told us that you’re not coming home?” Tang Zhimo picked up the phone several seconds later.

“That’s right, Mommy’s busy at the moment so I can’t be home for the time being.” Chu Wuyou was overcome with guilt. She feared that her son might be disappointed, or worse, be annoyed at her.

“What’re you busy with?” Tang Zhimo, who was only four years old, had the manner of speech of a grownup. He did not throw a tantrum, criticize his mother, or become irritated. Instead, his tone did not reveal even a slight hint of discontent.

“Mommy just got married.” After some consideration, Chu Wuyou decided to come clean to her son. Although her son was only four years old, she knew he was way more mature than his peers.

“Is he my birth father?” The little guy was caught by surprise. He replied a couple of seconds later in a tone filled with curiosity.

“Nope.” It was Chu Wuyou’s turn to be taken aback this time. Her lips twitched as she wondered how the little guy arrived at that conclusion. His birth father?

Even she had no idea who his birth father was, so how could they possibly have gotten married all of a sudden?

“Um, wish you a long and happy married life.” Tang Zhimo sounded exactly like an adult and his tone was unbelievably calm.

Chu Wuyou blinked blankly again into the distance. She found it difficult to imagine those words coming out from her son’s mouth.

Even though his son had always been different from his peers, this was too…

“Don’t you worry about Younger Sister, I’ll take care of her. As for you, it does take a burden off my shoulder now that I can entrust you to your new husband.” Tang Zhimo did not enquire further. Instead, he exhorted his mother before hanging up the phone.

Still holding the phone in her hand, Chu Wuyou stood there in a numbed daze. Why did she feel like she had been given the cold shoulder by her son?

She had no other alternative but to deal with the urgent matter that came up earlier today. Nonetheless, she had to take care of the matters involving her darling children seriously.

Chu Wuyou found herself standing inside a massive villa constructed with numerous rooms. She selected a random guest room to call it her own.

Them cohabitating was only to keep up appearance; there was no chance they would share a room.

The whole day had passed but Ye Lanchen had not returned, hence Chu Wuyou found some ingredients and threw together a simple meal.

Ye Lanchen still had not returned by 10 pm. Chu Wuyou retrieved a change of clothes and headed for the bathroom. She was glad about his late return because that meant she could wander about the villa at ease.

After all, both of them were in this contract marriage for a purpose; it was so that Ye Lanchen could become the main stockholder of the Ye family business.

By the time she came out of the shower, never would she have thought to see another person lying on her bed.
