Chapter 227: Chapter 227 Fu Rao Took Her Away

Just as Chi Yue was about to turn around, she was enveloped by a figure.

The man’s familiar voice came from above her head, "Has Xiao Yan told you everything?"

Chi Yue continued without stopping, "What are you referring to?"

"About the pregnancy issue."

Chi Yue finally halted, turned to face him, "Are you trying to say, that matter has nothing to do with you, and I shouldn’t hate you for it?"

Fu Rongyin lowered his gaze to look at her.

"I hope you don’t hate Xiao Yan, she was trying to do me a favor."

They were so close, he could even see the curl of her eyelashes clearly.

Her back was to the stove, and the water in the pot had just started to boil.

Fu Rongyin instinctively protected her waist, his hands with distinct knuckles supporting her back.

Almost as soon as he touched her, she turned around to avoid his hands.

"Even though it was her idea, Fu Rongyin, you are an accomplice too."

The man’s voice came again, as if to tempt her, "Even though I’m an accomplice, can’t you spare me the death sentence, hmm?"

Chi Yue burst into laughter.

"Mr. Fu, you should wait outside, the kitchen is smoky, I’ll bring the food to you once it’s ready."

Seeing that she had no intention of chatting, Fu Rongyin did not continue to bother her.

He waited outside for a while, and Chi Yue came out carrying a large bowl.

Only when she placed the bowl on the table did he realize that Chi Yue had made a simple noodle dish with premade sauce.

In that moment, he suddenly realized his standing in Chi Yue’s heart was not what it used to be.

Without saying anything, he silently finished his noodles.

Then he got up, "I have a business trip tomorrow, so I won’t bother you."

Chi Yue nodded slightly, "Even when you’re back from your trip, don’t bother me."

——

Fu Rongyin really did as he said, promising not to bother her, he truly didn’t.

It was only several days after his departure that Chi Yue found out he had gone with Ling Jiayu.

Nan Bingyu came to pick her up for a classmate’s wedding, doing a whole lot of convincing along the way. By the time they arrived at the wedding venue, Nan Bingyu was still indignant.

"Men these days are no good at all, you should learn from me, date a few more and you’ll see their true colors," she said.

Chi Yue replied with amusement, "What about Lawyer Xi? By saying that, you’re including him too."

Nan Bingyu pouted, "Why bring him up? I left him behind today so I could have fun. It’s no fun mentioning him."

Chi Yue’s mouth twitched, "Don’t mess around, there are familiar faces everywhere here."

"Got it, got it, I’ll sneak over."

"..."

Chi Yue discovered that today felt less like a wedding and more like a class reunion.

Many high school classmates were there, including Fu Hanyan and Nan Yuan.

Chi Yue watched them greet each other as if nothing mattered and wondered if their hearts were as calm as they appeared on the surface.

"Yueyue, come with me over there, I’ve bumped into a classmate," Nan Bingyu said.

Chi Yue responded, "You go ahead, I’ll stay here."

Nan Bingyu hesitated for a long time after looking at the pool nearby and then said, "Then don’t go near the pool, I won’t be going there."

It seemed Nan Bingyu remembered what had happened last time; Chi Yue nodded, "I won’t go over there."

With Chi Yue’s repeated assurances, Nan Bingyu finally felt comfortable to leave.

But scarcely had Nan Bingyu left when Fu Rao appeared in front of Chi Yue, looking at her somberly.

"Fu Rao?"

Chi Yue frowned, wasn’t Fu Rao already abroad?

Fu Rao’s eyes were so cold they almost froze her to death as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward the rest area.

Chi Yue panicked, instinctively looking around, but noticed that almost everyone was heading towards the stage and no one was paying attention to her situation.

In less than ten seconds, Fu Rao had taken her to the rest area on the first floor.
