Page 295 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

Chi Yue was quite surprised.

Upon second thought, they were both in Hai City, and their families were well-off, so it was inevitable that they would cross paths. It wasn’t entirely impossible for Bai Bixuan to be attracted to Situ En.

Seeing that Chi Yue didn’t speak, Bai Bixuan said, "It’s fine if you don’t agree. I’ll attract him in my own way, just don’t interfere."

Chi Yue tugged at the corner of her lips, "I have no reason to interfere."

"That’s for the best."

When she was leaving, Bai Bixuan suddenly said to her, "You already know that you’re not Chi Jianshan’s biological daughter, right?"

Chi Yue looked up.

"It seems you really do know. But don’t waste your time looking for your biological father. Even if you find him, the chances of you being acknowledged by your ancestors are virtually none."

...

That night, Chi Yue returned to her apartment under the pretext of work.

Mrs. Bai Senior was initially reluctant to let her leave, but after Chi Yue spent half a day in the old lady’s room, nobody knew what they talked about, and in the end, she succeeded in leaving.

Once she entered her home and turned on the lights, Chi Yue felt something was amiss. She looked down and saw a pair of men’s shoes at the entrance.

She glanced at the living room, and sure enough, she saw Fu Rongyin lying on the sofa.

The spacious sofa just about accommodated the man’s tall frame. Hearing her, he sat up.

Chi Yue averted her gaze, "Why are you here again?"

"If I don’t come here, where should I go?"

Chi Yue put the groceries she had brought back into the fridge, then took some items out and headed to the kitchen.

Soon, there were footsteps in the kitchen, "Haven’t eaten yet."

Chi Yue: "Yeah, I didn’t have time to eat."

She left early fearing that Mrs. Bai Senior would change her mind.

However, Fu Rongyin said, "I mean, I haven’t eaten yet."

As he spoke, he moved Chi Yue behind him and started to cook himself.

Chi Yue laughed out of annoyance, "Can you be a bit more polite? This is my house."

Fu Rongyin didn’t look back, "Here, everything including you belongs to me."

Chi Yue: "..."

If anyone was shameless, she had to admit defeat in front of Fu Rongyin.

Seeing her skillfully cooking, Chi Yue went back to her room to review some documents.

Nan Bingyu’s call came through, "Yueyue, I might be leaving as well."

Chi Yue wasn’t surprised.

After Nan Yuan left the country with his parents, she knew it was only a matter of time before Nan Bingyu would leave.

"When?" Her tone was still fairly calm.

"Next month, I guess. I’ll leave after sorting things out here."

Chi Yue was silent.

Nan Bingyu tried to sound casual, "Sister, I’ll be raising fish somewhere else. Once I’m settled there, I’ll introduce you to some high-quality men."

Chi Yue couldn’t help but not laugh, "Are you staying to deal with Lawyer Xi’s issue?"

"I can’t hide anything from you. Yueyue, I heard through the grapevine that he’s Fu Family’s illegitimate son. He came back to fight with Fu Rongyin over the inheritance. Sooner or later, I’ll have to part ways with him."

You can’t work together if you don’t share the same path. She just wanted to be a happy salted fish; the scheming and power struggles were too draining for her.

"Is there anything I can help with?" Chi Yue asked.

Nan Bingyu was surprised by her reaction, "Aren’t you the least bit surprised?"

"I heard about it before. Lawyer Xi... he doesn’t stand much of a chance."

"If even you say so, then I really need to cut the Gordian knot quickly. I’ll pick you up after work tomorrow."

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, Chi Yue couldn’t help but worry about Nan Bingyu.

Xi Yihang seemed like a patient man, and he had invested so much in Nan Bingyu. If he wouldn’t let go, it would probably be difficult for her to leave.

A tall figure loomed over her, and Chi Yue looked up to meet the man’s dark phoenix eyes.

"What are you thinking about so intently? I called you several times and you didn’t hear."

Chi Yue watched him for a moment, then said, "Fu Rongyin, you’ve known for a while that Xi Yihang is your half-brother from the same father, haven’t you?"
