Entangled with My Ex's Uncle

Chapter 511: Chapter 511 Chi Yue laughed, ’Do you take me for a fool?

Chi Yue didn’t notice his gaze and continued, "She told me today that in partnering with me, she just wants Xi Yihang, and she could even help us. Her offer is indeed tempting, but I just don’t understand how she could just fall in love with Xi Yihang like that?"

Fu Rongyin hadn’t expected her to be struggling with this question and couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated.

"You’re not struggling with whether to cooperate with her, but whether she has shifted her affections?"

Chi Yue nodded, "You’re so outstanding, how could she just say she doesn’t like you anymore?"

Fu Rongyin: "...Maybe she knows she can’t outcompete you. Besides, I haven’t been in contact with her or seen her in recent years. It’s normal for her to retreat knowing the difficulties."

What he didn’t say was that even though Ling Jiayu had hinted several times, he never responded. A smart woman wouldn’t waste her time on someone who didn’t love her.

"Explained that way, it does make sense, but... anyway, what do you think about partnering with her?"

"It’s unnecessary. Ling Jiayu and Xi Yihang knew each other way before we considered partnering. If she had feelings for Xi Yihang, she wouldn’t have just realized it now."

Chi Yue suddenly understood, "But what is she planning by making these little moves?"

Before long, Chi Yue figured out Ling Jiayu’s little schemes. noveldrama

Seeing that Fu Rongyin refused to help, Fan Xuesong provided Xi Yihang with many resources, intending to buy him over.

Xi Yihang accepted them without objection, and within just a short half-month, he had taken the Fu Family up another level.

Fan Xuesong intended for him to enter into a marriage alliance, and sure enough, upon hearing the news, Ling Jiayu became anxious.

After all, no one wants to spend their youth accompanying a man for free, she aimed for the position of Mrs. Xi.

Chi Yue was not interested in their power struggle and had no intention of dealing with Ling Jiayu.

Ling Jiayu waited for several days without a response from Chi Yue, so she came knocking again.

"Chi Yue, have you made up your mind?"

"You still haven’t given up? Ling Jiayu, not everyone can be used by you as a stepping stone to fulfill your ambitions."

Ling Jiayu became desperate, "You won’t help me because you don’t trust me?"

Chi Yue didn’t speak, the answer was obvious.

Ling Jiayu grabbed her hand, "Chi Yue, if you help me, I’ll tell you why Fu Rongyin never came to look for you during those ten years."

Chi Yue’s eyes turned slightly cold, "The partnership didn’t work out, and now you want to stir up trouble between my husband and me?"

"Of course, I’m not making things up! When you were with Fu Rao initially, Fu Rongyin knew you were together yet did nothing, don’t you find that odd?"

Chi Yue’s heart stirred slightly, but she maintained a neutral expression, waiting for her to continue.

However, Ling Jiayu said, "As long as you agree to partner with me, I’ll tell you everything."

Chi Yue laughed, "Do you think I’m a fool?"

Seeing Chi Yue about to leave, Ling Jiayu got truly desperate.

"What about those four years? He knew you had his child, why didn’t he come to find you then? Chi Yue, if he loves you, why does he always choose to keep silent and not come after you when you leave?"

Chi Yue paused briefly, but that was all; she then continued to walk away.

Ling Jiayu thought Chi Yue refused to believe her and turned to find Fu Hanyan.

As for what was said, only they knew.

Chi Yue didn’t take Ling Jiayu’s words to heart, but she couldn’t pretend she hadn’t heard them.

That day, Fu Hanyan came to take over Chi Yue’s shift, and Chi Yue arrived home late at night, only to find that Fu Rongyin hadn’t returned yet.

She was about to call Fu Rongyin when she heard a noise from the entrance. She looked up, meeting Fu Rongyin’s surprised eyes.
