Page 379 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

The cold water had helped cool her body down, and Chi Yue’s consciousness began to recover significantly.

However, before she could push Fu Rongyin away, she was wrapped in a bath towel, and then he carried her out.

Chi Yue’s body shook uncontrollably, and although biting words reached her lips, she realized that Fu Rongyin had opened the door and was carrying her out of the room.

Before she could react, hurried footsteps came from the hallway.

"Chi Yue!"

The next second, she was snatched away by Nan Yuan, who barely steadied her before Chi Yue saw him rush forward and throw a punch.

Fu Rongyin dodged quickly, and Nan Yuan’s fist didn’t hit him.

But Nan Yuan swung again rapidly, although this time he was pulled away by a bodyguard before his punch could reach Fu Rongyin.

Nan Yuan’s voice was as cold as ice, "Fu Rongyin, you’re despicable! Have you forgotten what you did to her back then?"

Fu Rongyin’s expression was indifferent, "She needs to go to the hospital immediately."

Nan Yuan snorted coldly, "Now you know she needs to go to the hospital, where were you earlier? If it weren’t for your indecent intentions, would she have ended up here?"

Fu Rongyin glanced at him and ordered the bodyguards to keep an eye on him, then walked over to Chi Yue and carried her into the elevator.

This time, however, he let Nan Yuan follow them.

In the hospital filled with the smell of disinfectant, Chi Yue slowly came to her senses.

In the hospital room, only Nan Yuan was present. Seeing her awake, he asked anxiously, "How do you feel? Are you feeling any better?"

"Much better, thank you."

Thinking about the events of the evening, Nan Yuan spoke with lingering fear, "I was too overconfident, thinking that Fu Rongyin wouldn’t do anything to you."

"It wasn’t him," Chi Yue explained, "It was Situ Wei’an."

Nan Yuan was taken aback at first, then his face turned cold, "I’m going to the Situ Family."

"Don’t act rashly. Situ Wei’an has been kicked out by the Situ Family. Even if you go now, you might not be able to find Situ Wei’an."

And seeing her determination, Chi Yue felt that she must have had an accomplice to accomplish this.

Once Nan Yuan had calmed down, he also considered this possibility, "You rest well, I’ll get to the bottom of this and make sure they explain themselves to us."

"Okay."

Outside the hospital room, a tall man turned away emotionlessly.

Little did anyone know that his nails had already dug into his flesh.

Downstairs, he got into the car, and Chu Shuo teased him as he looked back, "I told you not to come, but you insisted. Got hit hard, didn’t you?"

Fu Rongyin glanced at him, his black eyes cold as frost, "Not speaking doesn’t mean I’ll take you for a mute."

Chu Shuo ignored his comment and continued, "Think back to those days. When she needed you, you ruthlessly sent her to prison, and now you want to help, but you can’t even find the grounds to speak up. What do you call that, self-inflicted, not..."

Before he could finish, Fu Rongyin opened the car door and got out.

Chu Shuo raised an eyebrow, leaned on the car door, and called out to him, "Are you sure you won’t get in the car?"

Fu Rongyin stood on the roadside, flipping through his contacts.

Watching for a while, Chu Shuo stepped on the gas, and the car sped away.

Some people get overly sentimental as they get older.

But so what?

If they’re not his people, he doesn’t need to cater to them.

Chi Yue, having stayed in the hospital overnight, sent Nan Yuan back home to take care of Nan Baixuan.

Neither of them had been free the night before, so they sent Nan Baixuan to the Bai Family, not returning for the night. Mrs. Bai Senior didn’t ask any questions, assuming the young couple wanted to have some time alone.

Before leaving, Mrs. Bai Senior said to Nan Yuan, "I’ve picked out a few dates. Forget about this month, either next month or the month after are fine. You see when you and Miss Yue are free to pick one, then have your parents come over for a visit."

Mrs. Bai Senior had previously suggested that Nan Yuan’s parents should pick the date, but Nan Yuan said they all felt that she, as the elder, should choose.

Nan Yuan agreed to all her suggestions, then took Nan Baixuan to the early education center before receiving a call from the company about an important matter that needed to be dealt with.

Nan Yuan had no choice but to call Chi Yue to say that he would pick her up after he was done with his work.

After Chi Yue hung up the phone, someone knocked on the door from outside. When the door opened, to her surprise, it was the manager she had worked with years before.

Seeing it was Chi Yue, she too was shocked for a long time.

After a while, she spoke with teary eyes, "I thought I had heard wrong, but it really is you. You have no idea how it was the day you were buried..."
