Chapter 834: Chapter 834: There’s a Trick
Upon learning about this matter, Fu Rongyin’s first reaction was to find Mr. Qi, but he was stopped by Chi Yue.
“Zhan Youyou is already here. Even if you go over now, it’s impossible to drive her away.”
Fu Rongyin frowned, “So we just let her act out in front of you?”
Surprisingly, Chi Yue kept her temper, “It’s useless. Old Qi has long decided to bring Zhan Youyou over, but he doesn’t have a proper excuse to make her the Qi family’s granddaughter-in-law. So he set his sights on .”
Fu Rongyin was clouded by anger, but that didn’t an he’d lost his mind.
After Chi Yue’s explanation, he understood.
“You an he let us co back just to compare you with Zhan Youyou.”
“Yes, so in the days to co, he will definitely create opportunities for and Zhan Youyou to appear in the public eye, and he’ll try to embarrass in front of everyone.”
Fu Rongyin’s face, which had just cald, darkened again.
Chi Yue said with annoyance, “Looking at your expression, can’t you have a little more confidence in ?”
“Zhan Youyou is ruthless. I’m just worried she’ll use so underhanded ans.”
The more Fu Rongyin thought about it, the more wrong it felt. He motioned to pull her away, “Let’s go back to Nancheng.”
Chi Yue was amused and exasperated, “What are you thinking? I’ll be fine. At worst, don’t you still have protected? As you said, unless we solve things here, we won’t be able to live a peaceful life.”
Fu Rongyin’s anger gradually subsided at her words, “Staying here is also okay, but no matter what happens, you must consult with first. Don’t act alone.”
“Do I look that silly to you?”
After their heart-to-heart, Fu Rongyin said to her sincerely, “When we return to Nancheng, I will definitely make it up to you.”
He owed her too much indeed.
Neither expected their first showdown with Zhan Youyou to co so quickly.
As Uncle Qi, Qi Hongwen, had been missing for so many years and returned, he had to account for it to the outside world.
So Mr. Qi arranged a dinner party at ho.
Qi Hongwen privately found Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin, indicating he would formally introduce them at the dinner.
Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin exchanged a glance, both feeling now wasn’t the right ti.
“Why not?” Qi Hongwen was puzzled.
Chi Yue explained, “You would disrupt the old man’s pace, and things might get out of control.”
Qi Hongwen was oblivious to their intentions, “Pace? Is the old man up to sothing again?”
Chi Yue smiled and briefly recounted her and Fu Rongyin’s conversation, then said, “The old man will indeed create opportunities for to appear, but it may not be as you expect.”
As expected of Fu Rongyin’s father, upon hearing Chi Yue’s words, his face grew exceedingly long.
“This old fool, at his age, still loves to cause trouble. What’s so good about this Zhan Youyou that he insists on speaking up for her?”
“No matter what, in his eyes I’m still insignificant. Uncle, you don’t need to worry, we’re prepared.”
Qi Hongwen’s face stretched out again, “Why don’t you call dad?”
Chi Yue was unaware but couldn’t manage to call out that ‘dad.’
It was still Fu Rongyin who rescued her, “Don’t force her; we haven’t had the wedding yet.”
Qi Hongwen didn’t really an to make things difficult for Chi Yue; he was just speaking for Fu Rongyin.
He didn’t insist further, gave them a few words of advice, and then left.
On the day of the banquet, Mr. Qi sent a dress over for Chi Yue.
Holding the dress, Chi Yue looked at Fu Rongyin speechlessly, “Do you think there’s a trap here?”
Fu Rongyin silently threw the dress into the trash, “Wear the one I prepared for you.”
He took out one that was exactly the sa as the one Mr. Qi sent.
