Chapter 170: Chapter 170: The Fate of Abandoning Wife and Children

"Chi Yue, what’s with that look on your face?" Chi Jianshan said, "This child is your sister’s daughter; do you really want to see her like this?"

Chi Yue remained expressionless, "I have no blood relation to her, and even if I did, her parents are alive, as are Grandma and Grandpa. How could it possibly fall to me, a person who was kicked out of the house, to take care of her?"

Yang Shulan grabbed her hand, "Yueyue, I know you don’t like Qingqing, but she’s missing now, and your dad and I are currently unable to take care of her. Only you have the ability to give her a good life."

Chi Yue coldly avoided her hand, "Don’t flatter me like that, I don’t have that ability."

"How can you not have the ability? You’re managing such a big company so well; it’s just about taking care of one more child. You can surely afford it."

"You don’t know?" Chi Yue asked.

Chi Jianshan: "Know what?"

Chi Yue: "My mother’s company has been sold by me; I have nothing now."

"You irresponsible child!" Chi Jianshan roared, "Who gave you permission to sell? Do you know how much those things your mother left for you are worth?"

Chi Yue said indifferently, "Rather than having people covet that money, it’s better to liquidate it."

"You..."

Chi Jianshan was so angry he couldn’t catch his breath.

He glared at Chi Yue fiercely, "Who did you sell it to?"

"Sorry, that’s a secret."

Bai Dongyang, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, "Chi Yue, aren’t you afraid of your mother coming for you? She devoted half her life to you, and you just sold it away. How can you justify that to her?"

Chi Yue was unfazed, "You’re not qualified to judge me."

Bai Dongyang scoffed, "I’m merely your uncle, of course, I don’t have the authority over you like your parents do. It’s fine if the company is sold; you can always buy it back later if there’s a chance. After all, you are now the bride-to-be designated for Fu Rongyin from the Fu Family; you won’t lack the money."

Chi Jianshan and Yang Shulan both looked at Chi Yue, who stammered in shock, "You.... You’re marrying into the Fu Family?"

Chi Jianshan opened his mouth as if to say something but ended up remaining silent, though his gaze softened significantly when he turned back to Chi Yue.

Chi Yue’s face showed no change in emotion, "Is there anything else?"

Yang Shulan shook her head.

Chi Yue looked at the infant in the swaddle, "Do you still need me to take care of her?"

Yang Shulan: "Of course not!"

If this child were to prevent Chi Yue from marrying into the Chi Family, it would be a tremendous loss.

Chi Yue turned around, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first."

"Visit more often when you have time. Your sister isn’t coming home, but you can’t just never return home. When you get married, you should have your family by your side." Chi Jianshan’s voice had softened a great deal.

Whether Chi Yue heard him clearly or not, she left without looking back.

"Hmph, now you finally remember you have a daughter? When did you start treating her so well?" Bai Dongyang suddenly spoke up.

Chi Jianshan said coldly, "This is my family affair; you have no right to interfere."

"Your family affair?" Bai Dongyang snorted, "You only acknowledge her as your daughter because she’s marrying into the Fu Family. At other times, you wish you didn’t have such a daughter."

"That’s none of your business!"

Bai Dongyang: "I’d rather not get involved, but my silly sister came to me in a dream asking me to see how you are doing now. Your current situation is the consequence of abandoning your wife and child!"

After saying that, Bai Dongyang left without looking back.

Chi Jianshan wanted to say something but was stopped by Yang Shulan.

"Say less; offending the Bai Family isn’t good for us."

Chi Jianshan said indignantly, "He’s no better than us! He’s never cared about Bai Qing and her daughter all these years, and now that he’s showing up, he must have an ulterior motive! Keep an eye on anything new from Chi Yue’s side, and I’ll go inquire about the Fu Family’s affairs."
