Next day, Yu Fei comes to the building of Ko Towel at nine o’clock on time. She feels greatly relieved when she sees Yu Yu is punctual for meeting
“Sister,” Yu Yu acts out of normal behavior, holding her arm intimately. “Last night it’s my fault. You raked up the past suddenly, which made me panic. I have been thinking about it overnight, and I can’t allow your marriage to break up because of me.
Yu Fei is shocked and examines Yu Yu carefully, trying to find out some clues from her face. But…no flaw.
“Sister, shall we come up?” Yu Yu smiles and pulls Yu Fei into the building.
Without knowing why, Yu Fei feels her uneasiness growing stronger, but she quickens her pace. Now, it’s no time for other things. Nothing matters except explaining the truth to Ko Chen.
Yu Fei’s heart beats fast when she follows the secretary to Ko’s office. This is her first time to be where he works. They didn’t have a good start when they got married. Therefore, everything was prepared in a simple manner and her identity as his wife has never been made known.
“Sister?”
Yu Yu’s voice comes from back. She comes back to the earth, holding the doorknob and turning it slightly.
Ko Chen is reading paper. He looks up when hears the sound, and his eyes turn cold immediately. Yu Fei is frightened and steps back a little.
“What are you doing here?”
“I…” Yu Fei is speechless. Her pace messes, and she bumps into the person behind her. Her body leans aside when Yu Yu shows up exactly.
Looking at two women like the startled fawns at door, Ko Chen frowns and tries not to rush to steady her.
“What? You ave found witness?” Ko Chen tries to move his eyes from Yu Fei. His voice sounds sarcastic.
Yu Fei’s face turns pale. But she knows this thing must be solved as soon as possible. She takes a deep breath, drawing herself up, holding Yu Yu’s hand and walks to office table. She looks into the man’s eyes firmly like making a big decision and enunciates each word, “Chen, it wasn’t me three years ago.”
Ko Chen stares at her and his lips tighten. Of course, he believes her, but now he can’t show it. He doesn’t have too much time and his competitors eye covetously. The best way to protect her is…to push her away from himself!
“Really?” He says calmly and “Why should I believe a woman who can sell sex for money?”
Ko Chen makes himself vicious deliberately.
Yu Fei’s face is ghastly pale. She knows he means that she married him three years ago.
Suddenly, a sob comes from Yu Fei’s back.
They look and see Yu Yu stand out and she cries, “Don’t be angry with sister. It’s all my fault.”
She cries so sadly and Yu Fei thinks she is scared by Ko Chen’s grim look. Finding Yu Yu explains the truth for her, Yu Fei holds her in arms and comforts her in relief.
“That child isn’t sister’s. It’s mine. I was too young and too naive. I was…” Yu Yu grows pale and can’t say one more word. She holds herself and can’t help shaking, like suffering sharp pain.
Yu Fei feels distressed. She doesn’t expect Yu Yu to tell the truth frankly for her. So she takes Yu Yu in her arms and comforts her softly, “It’s gone. You have me now.”
Looking at Yu Yu’s nods, she looks up to the man sitting behind the table and explains, “That’s the truth, Chen. It’s not me…”
“Enough!” Ko Chen stands up suddenly and stares at Yu Fei with red eyes, ” How long will you pretend?”
Yu Yu still cries but Yu Fei looks at the man in shock. She has no idea why he is so angry.
“Chen?”
“I have been deceived by you these three years!” His voice implies tolerant anger. The scene that happened just now seems Yu Fei’s threat to her own sister but he knew the truth when he saw Yu Yu’s helpless eyes.
All of this is nothing but a trap made by Yu Yu. But he will play this if Yu Fei leaves him and is free from danger because of Yu Yu’s plot. And he can go at ease.
Clenching fists, he says without any feeling, “You even threaten your own sister for yourself. How vicious you are! I was blind these years. No matter what the truth is, I will never want your child.”
Yu Fei stares at him in shock. She doesn’t understand why he doesn’t trust him at all even after Yu Yu explains. Does he hate her so much that he doesn’t want her child?
“Why?” Yu Fei rushes to Ko Chen, trying to clutch his sleeves. But he turns and dodges her.
Then he walks to Yu Yu but looks at Yu Fei indifferently, “Go. And never let me see you again. Don’t make our marriage an embarrassing thing to us.”
Then, he helps the tearful Yu Yu to sit on the sofa.
No one sees Yu Yu’s successful smile on her face.
Yu Fei is unbelievable about man’s grimness. She tries to walk to him but knows exactly nothing will be of avail no matter how she explains.
Her eyes turn red spontaneously. She doesn’t want him to see her weakness, so she rushes out of the door before her tears drop.
Bang!
The door bounces back for she closes it too hard, and loud noise scares Ko Chen.
Unlike the tender attitude he just showed, he takes back his hands and walk straight to his office table after Yu Fei leaves.
Yu Yu is confused by his different attitudes. But she responds quickly, chuckling to herself. This kind of man is charming and fits her.
But the look on her face is still like crying. She approaches Ko slowly and explains with a tone of grievance, “I didn’t mean to lie to you. It’s just… just sister came to me and said you two wanted divorced. So I said three years ago…”
“I know!” He interrupts her and keeps working, answering without looking at her, “I will deal with it.”
“Chen, don’t blame sister. She asks me to lie to you because she doesn’t want to leave you. That thing happened in three years ago after all and now she is pregnant again. In this perspective I should congratulate you.
On the surface Yu Yu tries to help Yu Fei. But in Ko Chen’s perspective, these words imply that Yu Fei does not belong to him entirely and cheated him three years ago.
Ko Chen is purple with anger, holding pen so hard that his fingers turn white. But he is not angry at the words Yu Yu just said, but at dangers that lurk near her lovely wife. He swears he will wipe out these dangers one by one. Dropping the pen, he turns and pinches Yu Yu’s face, pretending to be regretful, “What? Congratulate on her cheating me?”
