When Ko Chen comes to Yu Yu’s room, she is on the phone with her mother.

“Give me pictures first. Why you have so many questions?” Yu Yu’s tone is full of impatience. Since knowing that Yu Yu and Ko Chen have got entangled, Wang Feng always asks for help from Ko Chen, which annoys Yu Yu so much.

After dealing with the matter of the photos, Yu Yu is in a hurry to hang up the phone. Wang Feng even has no time to say good-bye, and then there comes a busy tone in the handset.

Yu Yu totally ignores her mother. She is thinking about how to attract Ko Chen.

She doesn’t care the last failure too much, and Ko Chen’s attitude has aroused her desire to win. What’s good about Yu Fei, and why does Ko Chen always think of her, but does not even look at her instead?

The warm water falls on her body, and Yu Yu’s fingers stroke the smooth skin, while she is much less resigned to it. She is younger than Yu Fei, and her appearance is not bad, but why in Ko family Yu Fei enjoys a high status while she has to live in remote guest room.

The more she thinks, the more she is annoyed. She puts on her pajamas and walks out of the bathroom, at the same time her cell phone rings. She goes and picks it up. It’s a man she knew in the bar. She hung up the phone without thinking.

Unexpectedly, the man perseveres and calls again within two seconds.

When Yu Yu’s fingers stay on the answer key, hesitating whether to connect, the door is suddenly opened.

She looks at it and sees Ko Chen appear at the door. She immediately presses the phone with fear and buckles it upside down on the bed.

Her action is so obvious that Ko Chen’s eyes stay on her mobile phone for a second.

Yu Yu feels this second has been infinitely stretched, and she is too scared to breathe.

“What happened on earth about Yu Fei three years ago?”

Ko Chen’s face is so gloomy. Yu Yu is afraid of such an angry Ko Chen.

She rolls her eyes, feigning a pitiful look, and stammers, “I don’t know very well. I just know that sister had baby at that time, and because of marriage she had to…”

Words having not been finished, Yu Yu covers her mouth in panic as if remembering something suddenly. If anyone else sees it, maybe he will believe she said this carelessly.

Seemingly, Ko Chen is calm, but in the deep he is scared. Yu Yu is so scheming, if he lets her stay around Yu Fei, she must be a formidable hidden danger. So he will never tolerate her!

Yu Yu has been observing his reaction, seeing that he is speechless, and a trace of chill flashed across his eyes. She mistakenly thinks that Ko Chen is angry for the thing that happened three years ago, causing a rift between them, so she feels proud of that.

Her pride could not escape the eyes of Ko Chen. Ko Chen squints, then suddenly strides forward. Although he is wearing home clothes, but they cannot cover his hormones exuded from inside.

Yu Yu stares intently at his long legs and subconsciously swallows.

If she can be with such a man, tall, handsome, and rich, what should she worry about her rest life?

Hardly had the idea occurred to her when Ko Chen already stood in front of her. He reaches out impolitely to pinch Yu Yu’s chin, forcing her to raise her head.

Ko Chen uses full strength. Yu Yu makes a sound in pain, but doesn’t have any response.

“I will investigate this thing well, and if I find out what you say is lie, you will take the consequences yourself!” Ko Chen says word by word to Yu Yu with a gloomy face.

His voice is not loud, but every word strikes on the eardrum of Yu Yu like thunder.

When she comes back to herself, Ko Chen is no longer in the room. The pinched chin is still in pain. Yu Yu looks in the mirror, seeing a few clear fingerprints on her face.

“Yu Fei, that bitch, must have told him something.” Yu Yu’s eyes suddenly become vicious, fingers all twining together, and gnashing teeth, “Yu Fei, you’ll see. I will ruin you in Ko Chen’s heart!”

On the other hand, as soon as Ko Chen walks out of the guest room, the sharp pain comes in his body. Unless Uncle Zhang quickly holds him, he will fall down heavily.

Back to the master bedroom, Duan Qingfeng has been waiting for a long time. Seeing Ko Chen’s face is paler, he can’t help nagging.

“What are you doing this for? Pushing your wife out and secretly coping with these bad people around her, you’re really a nice guy.”

Ko Chen doesn’t speak, sitting in bed, closing his eyes, and his eyebrows covered with sweat.

Looking at him like this, Duan Qingfeng can’t say any more words, checking his situation with seriousness, and his teasing attitude with which he previously joked disappeared completely.

Ko Chen’s physical condition is a lot worse than before, but it is not to the point of hopelessness. Just because he didn’t listen to his friend’s word before, and refused to cooperate with the doctor, then his condition slowly deteriorates to this point.

“I think if you really love your wife, you should cooperate with me in treatment. Don’t make yourself look like a bitter man. Who else can know it except me and Uncle Zhang?”

Duan Qingfeng cleans up the medical equipment while talking. He has said these words so many times before, but Ko Chen never cared. But at this time, he opened his eyes with no reason.

“Can my illness really be cured?” Ko Chen’s voice is very low, but Duan Qingfeng still heard it clearly.

He opens his eyes in an instant, coming to Ko Chen and looking up and down at him several times unbelievably.

Ko Chen is not comfortable to be stared at, frowning slightly. But before he could make a sound, he is interrupted by Duan Qingfeng.

Duan Qingfeng straightens up, hugging his arms with a look of understanding, “You must change your mind this time for your wife, right?”

Ko Chen doesn’t say a word, but silence has explained everything.

Duan Qingfeng shakes his head and can’t help sighing, “Even heroes fall for beauties, and even you are not exception.”

He wants to play more jokes, but Ko Chen cold eyes sweep him, so he immediately shuts his mouth, changing into a serious look, asks him what to do next.

The appearance of the smiling Yu Fei comes to his mind, and Ko Chen unconsciously shows a faint smile. But this smile quickly condenses. Once he thinks of Yu Yu and Wang Feng’s tricks in secret, he cannot smile again.

His hand is clenched, and then loosened, as if he were talking to Duan Qingfeng or muttering to himself.

“I’d like to see what other tricks they have!”
