Chapter 373: Chapter 373 When She Was Already Dead Inside

Chi Yue lost even the last bit of her appetite.

She put down her utensils and, without conveying joy or anger, asked, "Did Fu Rongyin send you here?"

Chu Shuo arched an eyebrow, his face quite surprised, "Do you suspect I’m spying for him? Chi Yue, I’m not so desperate for money."

"Nan Baixuan is my child. If he has any questions, he can come directly to me."

Leaving these words behind, Chi Yue left without looking back.

Chu Shuo’s smile gradually faded, and his gaze fell on the utensils she had used.

After a long while, he dialed a number, "I’ve got the item. Send someone to pick it up. Also, I want what I asked for, and I want it now. Old Five, after today, we’re even."

...

Chi Yue returned to her office, her mood plummeting to a nadir.

If even Chu Shuo could see it, it was impossible for Fu Rongyin not to notice.

But it didn’t matter if they checked; even before their return, she had already altered all the documents related to Nan Baixuan.

However, Nan Yuan now had to take care of both Nan Baixuan and his family; how could he find the time to search for her?

After pondering for a moment, she dialed the number that hadn’t been connected for a long time.

What she didn’t know was that at that moment, at the Bai Family residence, Xu Zhenwen had come seeking her.

Just as Bai Bixuan was discharged and returned home to rest, Xu Zhenwen came looking for trouble, so Mrs. Bai Senior had someone block her at the door.

Over the years, Xu Zhenwen and Xi Yihang had been openly and secretly fighting, squeezing the last bit of their shares in a final struggle.

But upon hearing that Chi Yue had returned, she grasped at it like it was her last lifeline, not caring about the inconvenience of her wheelchair, and rushed over overnight.

After an hour of negotiations, Xu Zhenwen finally managed to meet with Mrs. Bai Senior and Bai Dongyang.

Amiably, Xu Zhenwen said, "Mrs. Bai, I’ve come to apologize to Yueyue. Please, let me see her just once. I won’t do anything; after speaking with her, I’ll leave."

Mrs. Bai Senior detested this woman who had sent Chi Yue to prison to the core.

Furious, she said, "Apologize? You come now to apologize, where were you this morning? When she was still alive, why didn’t you think of apologizing, of letting her off? When you were set on having her dead, did you ever think about the disaster your actions would bring upon her?"

Due to her intense emotions, Mrs. Bai Senior started to cough.

Bai Dongyang quickly had the nurse take Mrs. Bai Senior inside, while he stayed behind.

Separated by an iron gate, Bai Dongyang’s voice was even colder than Mrs. Bai Senior’s.

"Just pretend that Chi Yue is already dead inside there. If you truly care for her, then don’t come disturbance her life ever again, not ever."

Just as Bai Dongyang was about to leave, Xu Zhenwen tried to reach out to him but forgot that her legs hadn’t stood for years.

In her panic, she fell to her knees, pleading, "I truly am at fault. I really want to apologize to her. I beg of you, let me see her."

Bai Dongyang looked at her expressionlessly, "If it were Fu Rong that you replaced with Chi Yue, would you forgive the person who caused Fu Rong’s death for a full three years?"

Xu Zhenwen was left speechless by his question.

"Leave now, while we still retain a shred of humanity. Don’t come back. Even if you kneel to death here, we won’t let you see her again."

As Bai Dongyang turned and walked away, he heard Xu Zhenwen’s voice calling out from behind him.

"Chi Yue, Yueyue, Yueyue, I’m so relieved you’re alright!"

Turning back, Bai Dongyang saw Xu Zhenwen had been helped back into her wheelchair by the bodyguards, and she was wheeled in front of Chi Yue.

She reached out to grasp Chi Yue’s hand, but Chi Yue coldly dodged away.

Xu Zhenwen didn’t show anger, instead smiling and saying, "It’s so good that you can come back. Come home with me, will you? Ah Yin has been waiting for you for four years, and the wedding is all prepared. If you come home, I’ll have someone pick a date for the wedding right away."
