Chapter 285: Chapter 285 She Is the Reason for the Annulment

Chi Yue’s gaze turned cold at a visibly quick pace, her thin lips curled into a sneer, "She is the reason you’re having second thoughts about the marriage, isn’t she?"

Fu Rongyin’s clear eyes flashed a dark glint, "Send my regards to Grandma."

Chi Yue had never seen anyone with such thick skin, even using the same form of address as her.

The sound of conversation came from outside the door, so Chi Yue strode over, locked it from the inside to prevent him from coming back.

Nan Bingyu arrived at the bed-and-breakfast in the middle of the night, and Chi Yue, who had been sleeping in a daze, awoke to her noise.

"What took you so long?"

She turned on the light and saw that Nan Bingyu’s eyes were red; she had obviously just been crying.

Chi Yue’s sleepiness vanished completely, as she handed over a tissue, "What happened?"

Nan Bingyu sniffled, "I had a falling-out with Xi Yihang."

"You fought?"

Nan Bingyu shook her head, "We had a huge fight, there’s no chance of making up now."

Chi Yue took a deep breath, guessing it had something to do with the day Xi Yihang tricked her into going to the hotel.

"Sit down and take your time," she said.

Nan Bingyu had set out early but was stopped by Xi Yihang outside the door; he wanted to explain things to her.

Any man who has been sentenced to death at the hands of Nan Bingyu knows that no matter what, there’s no chance of reconciliation.

Chi Yue, of course, knew as well, but every breakup had always been amicable, this being the first time Nan Bingyu cried about it.

Gradually, Nan Bingyu’s mood eased a lot.

She took a deep breath and sensed something was off, "Yueyue, is there a man in your room?"

Chi Yue was taken aback, "No, there isn’t."

"I can smell the scent of cologne in your room."

Chi Yue was secretly shocked but remained calm on the surface, "Is that so? I didn’t pay much attention."

Thinking it might be the scent left by Fu Rongyin, Chi Yue went on the alert.

Luckily, Nan Bingyu didn’t dwell on it and sat down on the bed, "Xi Yihang stopped me on the road, he wants to get back together."

Recalling the scene, Nan Bingyu’s heart trembled.

She admitted that Xi Yihang was different from the other men she had dated; Xi Yihang was special.

He would find ways to cajole her, make her unable to stop wanting him, in some respects he was a perfect match, so when he softened his approach and pleaded for her, she almost surrendered.

It was because of his words that she firmly rejected him.

She asked him, "Do you have to go through Chi Yue to deal with Fu Rongyin?"

At that moment, Xi Yihang didn’t answer, and his eyes had already betrayed him.

Nan Bingyu turned and walked away, but as soon as she did, the tears cascaded down uncontrollably.

After all, he was the man she had been with for the longest time; she wasn’t completely unmoved.

Chi Yue didn’t know how to comfort Nan Bingyu and simply said, "Actually, you don’t have to break up because of me. I have nothing to do with Fu Rongyin now. Even if Xi Yihang does anything to me, he can’t hurt me."

"But there is still a risk, Yueyue, you know I wouldn’t gamble with your safety."

Chi Yue was overwhelmed with emotion.

"Alright, no need to get emotional now, go to sleep, go to sleep. The world is full of possibilities, I’ll find someone new tomorrow. It’s not like we can’t live without someone."

Chi Yue: "..."

Early the next morning, Chi Yue took Nan Bingyu to Mrs. Bai Senior’s room.

Mrs. Bai Senior, seeing the sister of Nan Yuan, could hardly conceal the joy in her eyes, which frightened Nan Bingyu into thinking the old lady wanted to set her up with someone.

With Nan Bingyu accompanying her, Chi Yue could finally catch a breath and wasn’t constantly nagged by the old lady anymore.

Taking advantage of Nan Bingyu’s conversation with Mrs. Bai Senior, Chi Yue stepped into the courtyard to get some fresh air.

In the early winter, the courtyard was still filled with various kinds of blooming flowers, which lifted her spirits merely by sight.

"Miss Chi."

Chi Yue heard this voice and her thin lips pursed slightly.

The sound of footsteps stopped beside her, and Ling Jiayu’s voice reached her again, "What a coincidence, we meet again."
