Chapter 317: Chapter 317: Coaxing Him

Chi Yue had that moment of resistance.

She didn’t want to know why Chi Qingqing had such thoughts, or if it was a conspiracy, or a trap they had set up for her together.

She had not forgotten the scene she witnessed at the psychiatric hospital, where Xi Yihang and Chi Qingqing were chatting, which made her even more cautious.

Seeing that she didn’t accept, Xi Yihang took back the item and said considerately, "It was inconsiderate of me to ask you specifically to do this appraisal. If you can’t get past this hurdle mentally, I can find someone else, it’s no problem."

Chi Yue quickly said, "I will arrange for someone else to handle this appraisal, sorry."

Xi Yihang didn’t make it difficult for her, and after she had arranged everything, he said, "Can we talk? Just ten minutes."

Chi Yue pondered for a moment, "Okay."

Xi Yihang said, "About Xiao Yu, I’m really sorry, I scared her last time, right? If possible, please advise her more, but I won’t give up on her."

Chi Yue frowned, "You are not cut from the same cloth, and you know her temperament; no one can change her mind once she’s decided."

Xi Yihang, "I know, I will prove in my own way that she hasn’t loved the wrong person."

Chi Yue’s frown deepened because she could feel Xi Yihang’s determination to succeed at all costs.

"Chi Yue, my affair with Fu Rongyin is complicated, and I don’t want you to get involved. If possible, keep your distance from him."

After leaving these words, Xi Yihang departed, leaving Chi Yue silent for a long time.

After work, Chi Yue went to see Nan Bingyu and told her about encountering Xi Yihang that day.

Nan Bingyu responded indifferently, "It’s useless; to me, he’s already dead."

"Xiao Yu, go to Nan Yuan, I believe he has the ability to protect you."

It was then that Nan Bingyu said, "I’ve already bought the ticket; I’m leaving tomorrow night."

Chi Yue breathed a sigh of relief but also felt a deep loss.

Nan Bingyu was also distressed; leaving now, she didn’t know when they would meet again.

Trying to keep it light, she hugged Chi Yue, "Don’t leave tonight, I still have so many secrets to tell you."

The two talked on and on, not stopping until the sky began to lighten and they finally fell into a deep sleep.

Fortunately, it was the weekend, and when Chi Yue woke up, it was already noon. She hurried to check her phone, only to find it had run out of power and had turned off.

Suddenly alarmed, she rushed outside.

Sure enough, there was a man in her house, his face gloomy as he watched her.

Chi Yue, on the verge of tears, weakly explained, "I was with Xiao Yu last night and didn’t notice my phone had run out."

She cautiously handed over her phone, looking very much like a child caught doing something wrong.

Seeing this, Fu Rongyin’s anger abated somewhat, but his expression remained stern, "Couldn’t you have let me know in advance?"

Chi Yue steeled herself and said, "I was preoccupied and forgot."

Fu Rongyin was both annoyed and amused, "Every time Xi Yihang comes to you, you get flustered. If he does something, won’t you be completely lost?"

Chi Yue retorted, "I’m concerned about Xiao Yu."

Still lacking confidence, she faltered and couldn’t continue.

Fu Rongyin actually knew already that she had gone to Nan Bingyu’s place. He stayed to see how long it would take her to return. It turned out she stayed there until noon, returning with bags under her eyes.

Seeing Fu Rongyin silent, Chi Yue bit her lip and sat on his lap, "I won’t do it again, please don’t be mad."

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Chi Yue felt a chill.
