Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Want to do a paternity test with you

Chi Yue glared at him angrily, "Could you step aside, please?"

Fu Rongyin’s lips curled into a shallow smile, "I thought you wouldn’t talk to me. It turns out you’re avoiding suspicion."

"Don’t flatter yourself. I simply don’t want to speak with you, it’s not about avoiding suspicion."

"So it’s just me you’re targeting? Even if we can’t be lovers, we can’t be friends either?"

Chi Yue suppressed her temper, "We’ve made it very clear, I don’t owe you anything."

The smile faded from Fu Rongyin’s lips, "I didn’t agree to that."

Chi Yue’s breath hitched.

On reflection, he had indeed never said a word of agreement, but for an upright person, the matter would have been settled.

Clearly, Fu Rongyin intended to renege on the deal.

As expected, his next words were, "Chi Yue, one night for one project might not be such a good trade."

Chi Yue clenched her fists, "So?"

"There are a few days left to wrap up things here. Stay with me for these days."

"In your dreams!"

Chi Yue was furious, "The great Fifth Young Master Fu reneging on his word—what kind of man does that make you!"

"Whether I qualify as a man, aren’t you quite clear on that?"

Chi Yue felt a lump in her chest, unable to exhale or breathe properly.

Footsteps approached from the corridor. Seizing the moment when Fu Rongyin was distracted, Chi Yue pushed him away and ran outside.

As Fu Rongyin looked towards the source of the sound, he saw Lu Cheng standing before him, looking at him with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

"Never thought you’d see the day you got rejected."

Fu Rongyin gave him a glance and strode forward with long legs.

"Fu Rongyin, do me a favor, and I can put in a good word for you with her," Lu Cheng said.

Fu Rongyin walked away without looking back.

Lu Cheng wasn’t offended. He glanced towards where Chi Yue had gone and chuckled, "Interesting."

In the end, Chi Yue didn’t manage to leave.

Two potential clients from the area had learned that her company was bidding and came to discuss collaboration with her.

Chi Yue called Nan Yuan, who asked her if she needed help, but Chi Yue declined.

Nan Bingyu was currently at her home, which couldn’t be left unattended, and she could handle the matters over here.

That day, she and her secretary went to one of the client companies to discuss the collaboration.

The contract was signed smoothly, and knowing her schedule was tight, the client didn’t keep her for a meal.

Chi Yue found it surreal, as a meal was usually unavoidable in such situations.

The secretary felt the same way, and as they left the company, she voiced her doubts.

"Mr. Chi, don’t you think this was a bit too smooth?"

Chi Yue nodded, "Whether it’s true or not, let’s just be cautious. As soon as Boss Huang’s contract comes through, we’ll head back immediately."

Secretary: "But the company hasn’t submitted the pricing yet. It probably won’t be settled so quickly."

"No matter, it’s just a matter of a few days. You go back and fax the contract to the company. I’ll look around a bit and then go back."

The secretary didn’t suspect anything.

After the secretary left, Chi Yue stood still for a while. Seeing the figure across the street enter the restaurant, she thought for a moment and followed.

Inside the restaurant, Chi Yue walked straight to the man’s table.

"Mr. Lu, do you mind if I sit here?"

Lu Cheng smiled calmly, "Of course, you may."

After Chi Yue sat down, she got straight to the point, "Although I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, I still want to ask, I keep running into Mr. Lu these days. Are you in town on business as well?"

Lu Cheng grinned, "Observant. But no, I’m not here on business. I came specifically to find you."

"To find me?"

Lu Cheng pulled out a photo, "You’re Aunt Bai’s daughter. I’ve been following you to confirm something."

Chi Yue glanced at the photo on the table and her eyes narrowed sharply.

It was a picture of Bai Qing and Lu Xuhui!

Both looked noticeably younger than they did now.

Inside, Chi Yue was shocked, but she kept her composure, "What is it?"

"I want to do a paternity test with you."
