Chapter 316: Escape Impossible

Amidst the swirling smoke, the door at the staircase opened, revealing Chi Yue’s surprised face.

"I thought you had left..."

Fu Rongyin pinched out the cigarette butt and took her home.

This night, Chi Yue couldn’t escape.

Although he said nothing, he converted all his anger into a force for her to bear.

Chi Yue dared to be angry but not to speak, clenching her teeth until they ached. Then she bit him.

She hardly slept for long before the alarm rang again.

Dragging her heavy eyelids, Chi Yue got up. She hadn’t even touched the ground when she was pulled back, "Sleep a little longer."

"No, I have a client appointment today, I must be on time for the studio."

It was already arranged yesterday, and if she breached the agreement today because of personal reasons, she would have to pay a penalty.

It’s not that she couldn’t afford it, but it wasn’t worth losing so much over a few hours.

Fu Rongyin finally couldn’t override her decision. After she had prepared herself, he insisted on driving her to work, at least she could sleep a bit on the way.

Chi Yue did indeed catch a nap on the way and by the time they reached the destination, she quickly became alert.

She arrived at the office on time, and right after, Situ Wei’an followed her in.

"Chi Yue, did you get involved with Chu Shuo again?"

Chi Yue frowned, "Can you not use such harsh words?"

Situ Wei’an’s eyes almost popped out, "Last night I saw you and Chu Shuo entering the compound together and even going up in the same elevator, how can you deny it!"

Yesterday, she heard someone saw Fu Rongyin in that complex, so she went to stake out. Unexpectedly, it wasn’t Fu Rongyin but Chu Shuo!

"You have Chu Shuo, why do you still covet Fu Rongyin? Chi Yue, if you don’t explain clearly to me today, I won’t let this go!"

Chi Yue didn’t waste words with her, picking up her phone and dialing Fu Rongyin’s number.

As soon as the call connected, she spoke strictly business, "Hello Master, this is Chi Yue. Miss Situ came to my office early this morning due to personal affairs and has greatly disrupted my normal business activities. If she continues this way, either she leaves or I will resign."

Situ Wei’an was shocked, "Chi Yue, have you gone mad!"

Not knowing what was said on the other end of the phone, Chi Yue said, "Alright, then I’ll trouble you."

Chi Yue hung up the phone, began packing up her things, and then took her files and headed out.

Situ Wei’an tried to grab her, but just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Fu Rongyin’s assistant.

Chi Yue walked to the reception to wait for a client when suddenly she heard Situ Wei’an shouting loudly, "What? You’re actually firing me? Do you know who arranged for me to be here... Impossible! Ah Yin can’t possibly fire me..."

Chi Yue didn’t listen any further. She told the person in charge that once the client arrived, to call her from the lab whilst she herself went into the lab.

Before long, the person in charge came in, seeing Chi Yue hadn’t started working, she quickly said, "Situ Wei’an has left, it was a decision from above."

"Hmm," Chi Yue replied, "Good that she’s gone."

Situ Wei’an wasn’t here to work at all, and was exploiting her identity to cause trouble.

Seeing that Chi Yue had no desire to continue chatting, the person in charge didn’t persist and left.

Not long afterward, she came back in, "Mr. Chi, the client has arrived."

Chi Yue packed up her things and walked out, and at the reception, she saw a familiar figure.

She paused, "Lawyer Xi?"

Xi Yihang, in a suit, was no different from his usual professional appearance.

He smiled at Chi Yue, "Sorry, there was traffic on the way."

Chi Yue slowly realized, "Was it you who made an appointment with me online?"

Xi Yihang grinned, taking out a sealed bag, "It was me. I was concerned that my relationship with Xiao Yu might embarrass you, so I used that method. Please don’t mind."

As he spoke, he continued, "This is requested by my client Chi Qingqing, to conduct a paternity test with her parents."
