Entangled with My Ex's Uncle

Chapter 495: Chapter 495 Chi Yue’s heart sank again, "What do you mean he’s always been like this?

"Chi Yue... why don’t you just think he wants some quiet space for a few days?" Chu Shuo asked tentatively.

Chi Yue laughed at herself, "Otherwise, what could I do? Drag him back here?"

Since he wanted to clear his mind, she might as well let him be. The past two months had been indeed too oppressive for him. She didn’t mind if he chose this way to relieve his stress, and when the pressure had eased off enough, he would come back.

However, things gradually deviated from her expectations.

A week passed by; she didn’t call Fu Rongyin, nor did he contact her.

She thought Fu Rongyin would return soon, but ten days went by and there was still no news.

Chi Yue went to find Chu Shuo, who said he had just been in contact with Fu Rongyin and that he was doing quite well.

Chi Yue frowned slightly but didn’t say anything.

Another week passed, and Chi Yue sought out Chu Shuo again, "Did he mention when he would come back?"

Chu Shuo’s expression was a mix of a smile and not, "If you want to know, why don’t you just call him?"

"He doesn’t answer my calls," Chi Yue said, her face expressionless. "Chu Shuo, you know where he is, right?"

Chu Shuo also lost his smile, "Do you want to go find him?"

"I must find him."

"Then go, I’ve already bought your ticket. Someone will pick you up when you get there."

Before she left, Chu Shuo said to her, "Chi Yue, anyone else can hurt him again, but you can’t."

Chi Yue thought, how could she bear to hurt him?

No matter what happened to him, she would not hurt him.

After flying for more than a dozen hours, Chi Yue finally saw Fu Rongyin in a manor.

She stood there stunned, looking at the man with a beard not far away, her eyes warming up and her feet as if leaden.

Had he not shaved once in more than half a month?

And then there were his clothes, all sportswear which was the style he wore most often in his student days.

Feeling her gaze on him, he looked toward her.

Chi Yue clearly saw him stiffen, and then he strode toward the house, disappearing from sight quickly.

She didn’t know how long she stood there when footsteps approached from behind, followed by a woman’s surprised voice, "Miss Chi, what are you doing here?"

That voice... noveldrama

Chi Yue was certain, it was the voice she had heard that night in the backyard coming from Fu Rong’s house.

The woman came up to her side, with blonde hair, a mixed-race beauty.

She reached out to Chi Yue, "Hello, my name is Ari."

Her Mandarin was very standard, obviously well-practiced.

While Chi Yue was still figuring out how to go inside with her, Ari had already opened the door, "Come in, he’ll definitely be happy to know you’ve come."

Chi Yue thought of the figure that had fled in panic just now, and pressed her lips together in silence.

Ari chatted about the manor during the walk but didn’t mention a word about Fu Rongyin.

Once inside, Ari asked her to sit down and went to call Fu Rongyin herself.

Chi Yue sat for a long time and waited even longer, but in the end, only Ari came back.

With a hint of apology, she said, "He doesn’t want to see anyone. Could you stay here for now, and I’ll talk to him?"

Chi Yue nodded. She didn’t ask why he wouldn’t see her. As long as she could stay, she was sure she would see him.

Perhaps she never thought that the man who used to lie by her side every day would be so difficult to meet even once.

It wasn’t until the third morning that she caught a glimpse of him from a distance in the backyard before he disappeared again.

Ari appeared behind her at some unknown time, "Isn’t it strange that he doesn’t even recognize you now?"

Chi Yue looked into the distance, "I’ve heard you chatting with him before, in Hai City. At that time, I was thinking, there aren’t many women around him, so how could he talk so calmly sitting with you."

Ari laughed, "So do you know the truth now?"

"Not at all. Chu Shuo won’t tell, and you don’t plan to either, do you?"

Ari said with a smile, "You’re quite smart, no wonder he likes you. If he continues like this, are you willing to wait for him? And for how long?"

Chi Yue felt her heart sink, "What do you mean if he continues like this?"
