Page 141 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

In the darkness, Chi Yue chuckled, "What if I don’t go?"

The man’s hand tightened unconsciously, and his voice grew colder, "Chi Yue, do you really think I can’t do anything to you?"

Chi Yue winced in pain and frowned, still unwilling to concede, "You’ve already ruined my chance at a normal life, how much worse could it get?"

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and a figure rushed out.

The next second, Chi Yue was pulled away, and the person stood in front of her, facing Fu Rongyin.

"Number Five, have you had enough? It’s you clinging to her, not her clinging to you. How much longer are you going to make a scene?"

Chi Yue heard Chu Shuo’s voice and finally took a breath of relief.

"Chu Shuo, let’s go," she said.

Chu Shuo didn’t move, "Number Five, whether Gu Qingyu was pretending or really unconscious, aren’t you the one who knows best?"

Fu Rongyin’s voice was sinister, "You couldn’t wait to find her right after your divorce, aren’t you afraid of criticism? Right, your marriage to Chi Qingqing was a trap."

Chu Shuo had set Chi Qingqing up to bear someone else’s child, and after the child was born, he would expose the affair, which deterred many who favored him from getting too close or even thinking of marrying him.

That was Chu Shuo’s ultimate goal.

Chu Shuo ignored his words, pulling Chi Yue into the elevator.

The elevator doors closed, cutting off all prying eyes.

"Thank you," Chi Yue said.

Chu Shuo’s expression softened, "I heard Gu Qingyu made a move on you, nothing happened to you, right?"

"I’m fine, and everything at the store is already taken care of," she replied.

"Good, you should stay with Nan Bingyu for the time being. Number Five’s been unstable lately. He just took the CEO position, and many eyes are on him," Chu Shuo advised.

Chi Yue nodded.

Chu Shuo seemed like he wanted to say something, but hesitated. Finally, he just said, "I’ll take you to Nan Bingyu’s place."

"Okay," she agreed.

Chu Shuo dropped her off at Nan Bingyu’s doorstep and left, startling Nan Bingyu.

"What happened to you? Why are you with Chu Shuo again?" Nan Bingyu asked.

Chi Yue recounted the day’s events, and Nan Bingyu ended up even more infuriated than she was.

"It’s Gu Qingyu again! Why can’t she just disappear for good! She should never have been saved in the first place!"

Chi Yue looked at her.

Nan Bingyu said, "I haven’t had the chance to tell you, but remember when I told you I was going to dig into Gu Qingyu’s background? Guess what I found?"

Nan Bingyu took a deep breath, "Fu Rongyin had an old flame who died unexpectedly, and her heart was donated to Gu Qingyu!"

Chi Yue was shocked.

"Shocking, isn’t it? Everyone knows that Fu Rongyin fought with my brother because of you. Everyone said you were his old flame, but it turns out there was someone else!"

Chi Yue couldn’t quite pin down her feelings at the moment; she felt somewhat lost but also a bit reluctant.

If she wasn’t the person Fu Rongyin had once liked, then why did he always bother her?

Nan Bingyu noticed Chi Yue’s troubled mood and comforted her, "It’s been so long, it’s hard to say whether Fu Rongyin still holds any feelings for his old flame, and if he does, it’s not much. It’s been many years. One thing is for sure, Fu Rongyin definitely doesn’t love Gu Qingyu."

Chi Yue forced a smile, "You might as well tell me straight, Fu Rongyin and I are just playing around, nothing more."

"Not necessarily. I haven’t seen him cling to any woman before. Also, you could possibly be his first woman, which is quite rare," Nan Bingyu concluded.

Chi Yue: "..."
