Page 497 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

Just two words: Marry her.

Chi Yue thought of those two carefully written words and laughed, "It was then that I realized you had wanted to marry me so early. But why were you so heartless to send me to prison later?"

With each word Chi Yue spoke, Fu Rongyin’s brows furrowed tighter, until they were locked together in the end. "Why didn’t you come to find me?"

"I hated you, because knowing you once wanted to marry me, and yet you sent me straight to prison, I hated you to the bone."

Latter on, as her memories slowly came back, she started to realize that he might have had his reasons.

Having difficulties, he couldn’t protect her and thus sent her to a relatively safe place. Who would have thought, he guarded against Xu Zhenwen but couldn’t guard against Fan Xuesong.

During that time, every day she oscillated between hating him and trusting him, her mind in chaos.

Nan Yuan had no choice but to bring in Situ En, and the two of them treated her for half a year. Just when she was finally getting better, it was time for Mrs. Bai Senior’s birthday.

Chi Yue fell into her memories, and by the time she came back to herself, she was already in Fu Rongyin’s embrace.

His embrace was strong, as if he wished to meld her into his bones.

Chi Yue finally felt his powerful and steady heartbeat, and she instantly felt at peace.

After that day, Fu Rongyin’s condition slowly improved, receiving his treatment from Ari on time every day.

Chi Yue was very quiet, never inquiring into his affairs, quietly waiting for him to open up about the business.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, and Fu Rongyin’s treatment finally reached its last stage.

Having been away for too long, they discussed when to return.

Suddenly, Fu Rongyin stared at her, motionless.

Chi Yue, puzzled, touched her own face, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Ari was right, you’re beautiful."

Chi Yue: "..."

He took her hand and brought her into his arms, "I almost lost you."

Chi Yue found it both amusing and heartbreaking, "It’s all in the past."

"Yeah, all in the past."

His hand slid down along her waist, and even through the clothes, she could feel the scorching heat of his palm.

Chi Yue’s heart skipped a beat as he drew close, his voice hoarse, "May I?"

Chi Yue nervously clutched his clothes, "But your health..."

"It’s been over three months now, the doctor says I’ve recovered very well."

Chi Yue still hesitated. She didn’t want to take a risk with his health, but she also couldn’t bear to reject him.

While she was hesitating, his large hand had already slid under her clothes, "Don’t doubt my ability in this."

Chi Yue: "..."

She didn’t doubt his capability, it was precisely because she knew it too well that she was afraid his body couldn’t handle it.

As it turned out, she worried too much.

The next day he was full of energy while she started yawning the moment she opened her eyes.

Ari seemed to know nothing, going over the things they had to pay attention to when going back, as they were set to set off in the evening.

Before departing, Ari left the manor with them and personally took them to the airport.

Taking advantage of a moment when Fu Rongyin wasn’t paying attention, Ari whispered to her, "Intimacy helps relieve his anxiety, try to accommodate him more."

Saying this, she adjusted Chi Yue’s scarf, "Contact me anytime if there’s anything, though I hope there won’t be."

Chi Yue blushed and nodded, "Thank you."

Upon returning to Hai City, on the surface nothing much had changed from before they left, but behind the scenes, there had been numerous shifts.

What concerned Chi Yue most was the whereabouts of Nan Bingyu.

Only after asking around did she learn that Xi Yihang hadn’t returned to Hai City at all this time, Nan Yuan still unable to find Nan Bingyu.

Xi Yihang had taken Situ Wei’an home, and Fu Runan had them recognized into the family. Father and son together stabilized the Fu Family.

According to Chu Shuo, given a bit more time for Xi Yihang, the Fu Family might just return to its former glory.

Chi Yue didn’t believe it. She was convinced that as long as Fu Rongyin was around, the Fu Family would never surpass Fu Rongyin’s status in Hai City.

The second day after Fu Rongyin returned, he went to work at the company, while Chi Yue brought Fu Mianmian back home and also went to Nan Yuan to bring back Nan Baixuan.

During the time she went to find Fu Rongyin, Nan Yuan had gone to the Bai Family and taken away Nan Baixuan.

With two children at home, life returned to its former vitality.

Fu Rongyin was incredibly busy, not seen at home for a whole week.

Fu Mianmian began to complain, "Mommy, why doesn’t Daddy ever come home? Does he not like Mianmian anymore?"

"Of course not, he is just too busy."

Fu Mianmian pouted, "He’s not busy at all. Friends from the kindergarten told me they saw Daddy eating with an auntie. Mommy, why does Daddy eat with an auntie instead of with us?"

Chi Yue’s alarm bells went off, "What auntie?"
