Page 279 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

As she entered the room, she saw Fu Rongyin limping, and the thought of Nan Yuan’s worsened injuries made her speak, "Was Nan Yuan the only one injured this time?"

Hearing her, Fu Rongyin turned around, "Did you hope that I was injured too?"

"Your injury doesn’t benefit me in any way."

Though she said this, she still walked over, picked up the medicine box, and approached Fu Rongyin.

"Sit down, let me check the wound."

Fu Rongyin didn’t move, "I’m getting married tomorrow, aren’t you afraid of the gossip if you stay with me tonight?"

Chi Yue paused, but it was merely a brief pause, "Since you dared to come to me, I have nothing to be afraid of, and besides, I don’t plan to stay overnight."

"Is that so? What if I insist on you staying here? What would you do then?"

Chi Yue didn’t answer but gestured for him to sit down, "Let’s see how the wound is doing."

Fu Rongyin deeply looked at her and then walked back to the master bedroom.

Chi Yue sat in the living room for a while. Hearing no noise from inside, she slowly spoke, "Do you and Xi Yihang have some deep grudge?"

There was no response from inside.

Chi Yue continued calmly, "Ms. Xu gave me your hair to compare with everyone close to me... "

Before she could finish, the man interrupted her, "What are you trying to say?"

"You and Xi Yihang are half-brothers with the same father."

Chi Yue was not seeking his confirmation but stating the fact.

There was still no sound from the bedroom; soon after, the man came out and sat next to her, "Weren’t you going to treat my wound?"

Silently, Chi Yue unraveled the gauze from his knee and was surprised to find that the wound on his knee had almost healed.

Thinking of Nan Yuan’s swollen and bruised face, a bold thought crossed her mind.

"Fu Rongyin, this wasn’t a fight but rather Nan Yuan getting beaten up by himself, right?"

"What difference does it make whether it is or isn’t?"

Chi Yue’s eyebrows twitched, confirming her suspicion!

"I think you shouldn’t interfere too much with Miss Fu and Nan Yuan’s affairs. Matters of the heart are for two people, and your interference will only complicate things further."

Fu Rongyin’s eyes darkened at her words.

After a long pause, he took a wedding invitation out of the coffee table drawer, "If you don’t show up tomorrow, you’ll face the consequences."

Chi Yue glanced at it, "You might as well tell me the consequences now."

But Fu Rongyin didn’t seem inclined to tell her, standing up instead, "The driver is waiting downstairs for you."

Chi Yue glanced at the invitation on the table, not even intending to open it, and left without a word.

She felt that her interactions with Fu Rongyin were getting stranger and stranger, strange enough that she didn’t want to explore their underlying meaning.

Once downstairs, Fu Rongyin’s car was parked on the roadside, and Chi Yue got into the car.

Perhaps from exhaustion, she fell asleep as soon as she got into the car.

When she woke up, she was no longer in the car but in a hotel room, tied up, with no one else in the room.

Chi Yue’s heart sank to the bottom.

She had never imagined that Fu Rongyin would treat her this way.

Now, even if she had all the abilities in the world, she couldn’t possibly break free from the ropes.

Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes in despair.

In a few hours, it would be daylight, and then Fu Rongyin would have someone release her, right?

Not knowing how long she had dozed off for, Fu Rongyin’s driver arrived.

He said nothing, turned on the TV in front of her, and switched to the live broadcast of the wedding.

"Big brother, when does he plan to let me go?" she asked.

The driver looked at her, hesitated, and then left without saying a word.

As Chi Yue fell into despair, she noticed that her position had been moved closer to the coffee table, where there was a fruit knife.

Moreover, next to the fruit knife was her phone.

Easily, Chi Yue grabbed the phone and dialed Mrs. Bai Senior’s number, "Grandma..."
