Chapter 355: Chapter 355: What makes you think you can beat him?

The gist of it was asking him if Chi Yue had called his home looking for him, and if they were together now.

Fu Rongyin answered each question, angering Xu Zhenwen so much that she hung up the phone.

The car stopped in front of an office building. Fu Rongyin said he needed to sign a contract. Chi Yue didn’t go up with him but waited for him in the nearby mall instead.

She was in front of a maternity and baby store, captivated by the little items inside.

Thinking of Nan Bingyu, Chi Yue glanced at her own stomach and subconsciously walked inside.

When she came out, her hands were filled with several shopping bags.

Catching Fu Rongyin out of the corner of her eye standing by the roadside on the phone, she watched him for a while, then entered a nearby men’s store. When she came out, she had two more shopping bags before heading towards Fu Rongyin.

It was the first time Fu Rongyin had seen Chi Yue shopping. Seeing the baby items in her hands, he couldn’t help but be startled, "Why are you buying these?"

Chi Yue said indifferently, "They’re for Xiao Yu’s child. I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl, so I bought both."

Fu Rongyin’s eyes held an ambiguous expression as he looked at her.

Chi Yue’s gaze was resolute. "Even though she’s now in Xi Yihang’s hands, I believe you can find her. Maybe she’ll be back tomorrow."

Fu Rongyin shifted his gaze, "Get in the car."

Chi Yue handed him the other two shopping bags, gesturing for him to look at the clothes.

Fu Rongyin then realized his clothes were wrinkled, remembering in a flash his rushed departure from home without time to change.

Fu Rongyin’s expression was complex as he stood holding the shopping bags without moving.

Chi Yue said, "If you’re done with your busy schedule now, there’s no rush to change. Just look at them when we get home."

Fu Rongyin thought the same.

He placed the shopping bags in the trunk while Chi Yue turned away, oblivious to his careful demeanor.

Chi Yue waited the entire night for news about Nan Bingyu. Heaven knows how severe her sleepiness was as she forcefully stayed up until dawn, finally receiving a call from Chu Shuo, who found Nan Bingyu.

Because of previous lessons, Nan Yuan didn’t hand Nan Bingyu over to Chu Shuo but took her into hiding himself.

From that day on, Chi Yue couldn’t even contact Nan Yuan anymore.

It was untrue to say she wasn’t anxious, but Fu Rongyin said no contact was safer for them, so Chi Yue had no choice but to suppress her urge to find them.

A few days later, Xi Yihang blocked Chi Yue downstairs.

Chi Yue’s gaze was wary, "Your coming to find me is useless; I don’t know where she is."

Xi Yihang drastically changed his usual friendly demeanor and spoke ominously, "You’re her closest friend. If you don’t know, who would?"

Chi Yue: "I didn’t take her away. I’m looking for her too. If you have any news about her, please let her check in with me."

"Chi Yue," Xi Yihang suddenly called out, "Do you think you’re safe being by Fu Rongyin’s side? Did he not tell you, the Fu Family is in peril now? He’s too overwhelmed to take care of himself, let alone you."

Chi Yue was alarmed but her expression remained composed, "It’s pointless to tell me this; I genuinely don’t know where Xiao Yu is right now."

"Just because you don’t know doesn’t mean Fu Rongyin and his people don’t know."

He stepped closer to Chi Yue. "Tell me, if I take you away, would he exchange Xiao Yu for you?"

Chi Yue instinctively stepped back, her peripheral vision catching a familiar figure walking towards her. She subtly shifted to the side, "What makes you think you can outmatch him? Even if the Fu Family is at risk now, a skinny camel still is bigger than a horse."

"It seems he really hasn’t told you. I control half of the Fu Family’s shares. If I want, taking over the Fu Family would be a piece of cake. By then, Fu Rongyin will have nothing."
