Chapter 160 Quick Decision
Zhou Wenhui’s suspicion had already been aroused, and it was no longer easy for Yang Fan to hoodwink her.
He rubbed his cheek, steadying his emotions, before he finally said, "I was at Ding Wang’s place. His wife said there were two bottles of aged wine they planned to get rid of, so I stopped by to check them out on my way back."
"You were at Wu Xuelan’s place in the middle of the night?" Zhou Wenhui’s gaze suddenly grew more suspicious.
Yang Fan nodded solemnly, "We came back together."
"Came back together? Fanzi, what exactly are you doing? Be honest with me!" Zhou Wenhui’s face instantly became stern, "It’s indeed time for you to find a woman, but you can’t just pick randomly. Getting entangled with a married woman spells disaster, not a blessing."
"I don’t care what you’re up to, get back here immediately."
Seeing that Zhou Wenhui was getting somewhat angry, Yang Fan took a deep breath and explained, "Little Mother, I really did just come by to take a look. Wu Xuelan is sorting medicinal herbs at Old Zhou’s shop. I bumped into her when I was delivering goods to Old Zhou this evening, so we came back together."
"Is that really the case?" Zhou Wenhui still asked with some disbelief.
"Why would I lie to you? I’m heading back right away," Yang Fan said.
Just then, Wu Xuelan, wrapped in a bedsheet, clutching two bottles of wine, hurried out.
Yang Fan quickly gestured with his hand, feeling there was no need for physical proof now.
