Chapter 502: Chapter 502: I Just Want to Be Your Spouse
The man pondered for a moment, then tried to speak, "I know it’s cruel to ask you to recall the past again, but I need to figure out who is working against you behind the scenes. An Ruo, do you remember what the man who asked you out looked like?"
An Ruo hesitated, not answering immediately.
Thinking she was reluctant to talk, Tang Yuchen grew a bit anxious, "I can swear that the person wasn’t sent by me, nor was it Ke Ren. Ke Ren was nearly dead; she wouldn’t do such a thing. I have too many enemies, and I can’t figure out who is behind this right away. I can only try to find some clues from you. An Ruo, I know you hate me, but don’t you want to find out who is behind this? If it hadn’t been for them, you wouldn’t have suffered so much..." The child would not have died.
Fearing it would upset her more, he swallowed the rest of his words.
"I don’t remember," An Ruo said faintly. She understood his intention; she also wanted to know who was framing her.
"He was wearing sunglasses at the time; I couldn’t see his face clearly."
Besides, her attention back then was all on Yuchen’s betrayal; she had no mind to pay attention to anyone else.
"He told me you had sent him; he gave me a check, but I forgot to take the check with me when I left the cafe. However, he used his phone to have me call you."
"Was there nothing else?" Tang Yuchen asked again.
An Ruo shook her head, "That’s all."
The man fell into deep thought; these clues were too scant for him to act upon.
Leaning slightly forward, Tang Yuchen clasped his hands in front of his lips, his dark eyes flickering as he gazed at the woman opposite him.
"Yesterday you told me that you heard Lan Keren’s voice on the phone at the time. I immediately had someone check it, and indeed there was a call to me that night. However, the number was new and unregistered, so I don’t know who the owner of the number is."
An Ruo nodded faintly, "That was to be expected."
Suddenly, the man got up, walked over to her, and sat down beside her, turning her body around to face him.
"Babe, I must clarify one thing to you; although I married Ke Ren, I never touched her. That night, she had a severe episode during the day; the situation was grave, and I had to stay by her side. It was only late at night that I got a chance to rest. When you called me, I had just fallen asleep, so I was in a bad mood. It’s not what you think; I wasn’t sleeping with her."
She might have been willing to listen to these explanations before, but now she had no interest in knowing them.
"You and she are husband and wife, how you are together is none of my concern."
"An Ruo!" Tang Yuchen gripped her shoulders tightly, his dark eyes staring at her earnestly.
"Trust me, I only want to be your husband. Ke Ren is not my wife in my heart; she is just family."
An Ruo said faintly, "Actually, you don’t need to care about what I think, nor do you need to explain so much to me, really, I don’t care anymore."
The man’s heart stung painfully; how he wished she cared, wished she would argue with him, instead of this indifferent attitude.
"I’m sorry..." It was all he could say; he didn’t know what else to say.
An Ruo glanced at him, pulled his hands away, and stood up, "I’ll go first then."
She walked past him, and Tang Yuchen clenched his fists, wanting very much to hold onto her, to not let her leave.
Unfortunately, doing that would only make her angrier.
