163: Chapter 163: Secret 163: Chapter 163: Secret Chi Yue had just stepped through the Fu Family’s gates when Xu Zhenwen pushed her into Fu Rongyin’s arms.
Fu Rongyin casually caught her by the waist.
Chi Yue tried to break free, only to hear Fu Rao’s mocking voice.
“Congratulations, Chi Yue, for finally managing to ingratiate yourself with the Fu Family and becoming one of them.”
Chi Yue frowned, “What do you an by that?”
“What do I an?
Don’t you know best what’s in your heart?
I never expected that when you were with , it wasn’t you were after, but my Fifth Uncle!” Fu Rao’s eyes reddened, whether from anger or so other reason.
Chi Yue was even more confused, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Fu Rao looked at Fu Rongyin, “Fifth Uncle, aren’t you going to say anything?”
Fu Rongyin’s gaze was indifferent, “What do you want to hear say?”
Fu Rao’s gaze t Fu Rongyin’s, his eyes filled with the unwillingness of soone who felt betrayed.
Qin Anlu had approached at so point, her arm curled around Fu Rao’s, “Ah Rao, how could you let Fifth Uncle and the future fifth aunt stand here like this?
And you there…
Lady Ling, stop dawdling and invite them inside.”
With a cold snort, Fu Rao walked in first, and Qin Anlu followed close on his heels.
Ling Jiayu approached Fu Rongyin, “Ah Yin, it seems there’s so important family matter going on, so I won’t intrude.”
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but audible enough for everyone present to hear.
Xu Zhenwen was the first to speak, “If you want to leave, nobody is stopping you.
Ah Yin has very important matters to attend to tonight.
Besides, ‘Ah Yin’ isn’t what you should call him.
To avoid any misunderstandings about your relationship with my future daughter-in-law, you should be a bit more respectful in your address.”
Though Ling Jiayu was still smiling, Chi Yue could see the unnatural expression on her face.
The next second, Chi Yue felt the hand around her waist retreat, and then Fu Rongyin’s voice ca to her ear.
“It’s been so long since we’ve all gathered; let’s go inside together.”
With that, he stepped around Xu Zhenwen and walked toward the house.
Ling Jiayu curved her lips, “I’m sorry, auntie, but I simply can’t leave right now.”
Xu Zhenwen wanted soone to stop her, but to her surprise, Fu Rongyin, who had walked ahead, ca back, and Ling Jiayu took the opportunity to loop her arm through his, following him inside.
“Truly a lingering spirit!”
Despite Xu Zhenwen’s good upbringing, she couldn’t help but exclaim at this mont.
She turned to Chi Yue, “How could you not know to seize the opportunity?”
Chi Yue remained unmoved, “First, explain to what Fu Rao ant by his words just now.”
“Didn’t you hear it yourself?
I’ve inford them that you are Fu Rao’s girlfriend, the girlfriend recognized by the Fu Family.”
This implied that Chi Yue was now eligible to marry into the Fu Family.
Chi Yue’s face turned cold, “Ms.
Xu, what are you trying to imply?
My cooperation with you was because you promised to let leave, not to marry off to Fu Rongyin.”
Xu Zhenwen didn’t see anything wrong with the arrangent.
“So many people desire to enter the Fu Family’s doors.
You should cherish this opportunity.
If she hadn’t co back, it wouldn’t have been your turn!”
Chi Yue laughed, incensed, “No matter how good Fu Rongyin is, he is not a treasure to .
You cherish him so dearly, there is no need to cooperate with .
Since that’s the case, there is no reason for to stay.”
Chi Yue turned to leave.
“Stop right there!” Xu Zhenwen hurried after her, “It’s not in your best interest to fall out with if you want to leave him.”
“I want to get away from him, you want to tie us together; either way, it’s impossible for to have it both ways, so I might as well return to my forr life.
Who knows, maybe one day he’ll lose interest in ?
And if all else fails, isn’t there Ling Jiayu?”
Xu Zhenwen, looking at the resolute Chi Yue, suddenly realized that Chi Yue wasn’t negotiating with her but was simply stating the outco.
And she, because of Ling Jiayu’s appearance, had no room to choose.
Chi Yue continued to walk away, when suddenly, Xu Zhenwen’s voice ca from behind: “If you cooperate with , I can tell you a secret, a secret concerning both you and Ah Yin.”
