Capítulo 778: Chapter 778: Why Did You Co Back So Soon After Leaving This Ti?
Dai Qiu thought of the fierce tone those people had used and still felt frightened.
She had suspected a conspiracy at the ti of the accident, but she had never imagined the conspiracy was so close at hand.
Chi Yue was relatively calm, “Did you get a clear look at their faces? Did they see what you look like?”
Dai Qiu shook her head, “No, neither.”
“That’s good. Don’t tell a third person about this; I’ll handle it.”
“Okay, be careful with everything.”
After Dai Qiu left, Chi Yue called Nan Yuan.
Recently, Nan Yuan had been helping her look into the news about the car accident. A few days ago, he had called to say that the trail had gone cold and he couldn’t find any more useful information.
Which ant that, sooner or later, Chi Yue would still have to go to the police station for an investigation.
Chi Yue told him about what Dai Qiu had just said, but she didn’t ntion that it was Dai Qiu who had heard it; instead, she said she had overheard it herself by chance.
After learning the address, Nan Yuan promptly sent soone to investigate.
Just before hanging up the phone, Chi Yue said, “Fu Rongyin is at my house now, stubbornly refusing to leave. If I keep him here, would it reduce the likelihood of being a suspect?”
Nan Yuan was silent for a long while, “Are you willing to use him?”
“I don’t want to go back to jail. Zhan Youyou sees as a thorn in her side. If I get locked up, she’ll definitely find a way to kill .”
“I understand. If there’s anything you need, just let know.”
“Thank you, Nan Yuan.”
“We’ve been friends for so many years; there’s no need for such formalities.”
Chi Yue felt emotional.
Chi Yue, who had t Fu Rongyin and Nan Yuan together, if speaking strictly, had felt more care from Nan Yuan than warmth from Fu Rongyin.
Since she had decided to use Fu Rongyin, she could no longer afford to be cold towards him.
In the evening, Chi Yue returned ho from work. Upon entering, she saw only Fu Mianmian, with no sign of Fu Rongyin.
Fu Mianmian was sitting on the sofa with a piece of cake, watching TV; she looked back and called out to her, only to continue watching TV.
Chi Yue couldn’t help but walk over, “Mianmian, is it just you here?”
“Ah, yeah.”
“And your grandpa?”
“Grandpa is watering the flowers in the backyard.”
Chi Yue: “…”
Fu Mianmian didn’t look away from the TV as she answered her questions.
This was the first ti Chi Yue knew she was less captivating than a cartoon.
Just as she was about to give up asking, Fu Mianmian suddenly looked towards her, “Mommy, are you missing daddy?”
“What?”
“I knew you must be missing daddy, so you wanted to ask where daddy is, right?”
Chi Yue: “…”
She didn’t deny it and waited for Fu Mianmian’s answer, but the child turned her head back to the TV after speaking.
Chi Yue took a deep breath, telling herself to not hold it against her own daughter.
Yet, Fu Mianmian spoke again with a faint voice, “Daddy left in the afternoon, he said he would co back once he finished his work.”
Chi Yue’s face showed understanding, but inside, she felt disdain.
Fu Rongyin had used the sa excuse to fool Fu Mianmian so many tis, and yet she still fell for it. Chi Yue wondered how Fu Rongyin could sincerely believe Fu Mianmian understood his words.
It was still early, so Chi Yue spent so ti with Fu Mianmian before preparing to go to the study to finish so unfinished work.
Her hand had just touched the doorknob when Fu Mianmian’s cheerful voice ca from downstairs, “Daddy, you’re back!”
Chi Yue’s face showed a complex expression as she twisted the doorknob and entered the study, shutting out the sounds from downstairs.
Her conjecture overturned, Chi Yue’s mind was filled with thoughts of Fu Rongyin, unable to understand why he had returned so quickly after leaving this ti.
As she was pondering, the door to the study was knocked. Chi Yue collected her thoughts and said, “Co in.”
The door opened, and Fu Rongyin appeared in her vision, leaning on a cane, with Fu Mianmian behind him, snickering mischievously.
