Entangled with My Ex's Uncle

Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Do You Have the Heart to Drive Me Away?

"Didn’t you tell me when you got back? I would have come to pick you up."

He walked over to Chi Yue, sizing her up, "You’ve lost weight. If it’s too tiring, I’ll find a trustworthy caregiver so you can rest more."

Chi Yue didn’t delay like she always did; as he approached her, she suddenly furrowed her brow, "Have you been drinking?"

"Yeah, there was a rather important social engagement tonight, didn’t drink much."

Chi Yue didn’t like it when he drank. He knew that, especially after his surgery, he hadn’t touched alcohol for a very long time.

Chi Yue stepped back, "Go wash up, the smell is a bit strong."

Fu Rongyin smiled, "Okay."

Fu Rongyin went into the room, and Chi Yue’s expression collapsed. noveldrama

He certainly hadn’t noticed that his body carried not only the smell of alcohol but also the scent of a woman’s perfume.

It was normal to have beauties at a drinking party, and Fu Rongyin might not have done anything, but Chi Yue couldn’t stop herself from recalling what Ling Jiayu had said.

Ten years, plus those four years, he wasn’t the green young boy anymore; it was impossible that there were no women around him.

Chi Yue admitted that what Ling Jiayu said had successfully planted seeds of doubt in her heart.

She glanced towards the bedroom, then turned and went to Fu Mianmian’s room.

Fu Rongyin came out of the bathroom and didn’t see Chi Yue. He looked for her in the living room and after a full circle without finding her, he finally found Chi Yue in Fu Mianmian’s room.

Chi Yue was lying on the bed with Fu Mianmian nestled in her arms, burrowing into her with little bums jutting out.

The scene was comical and warm.

Fu Rongyin watched for a while, then lifted Chi Yue’s blanket and lay down next to her. Almost the instant he touched her, Chi Yue tensed up.

Fu Rongyin paused, "Did I wake you?"

"No." Chi Yue pushed him, "Go back to sleep, Mianmian’s bed is too small."

Fu Rongyin wrapped his arms around her waist, "It’s not easy for me to come back, and you’re willing to send me away?"

"...I haven’t spent time with Mianmian for a long time, either."

"When did our daughter become more important than me?" Upon closer listening, one could detect a hint of plaintiveness in his voice.

Chi Yue’s heart softened, and she relented, "Then go back to sleep, wait until Mianmian is sound asleep."

Half an hour later, Fu Mianmian was already snoring lightly and Chi Yue still hadn’t shown any intention of leaving, so Fu Rongyin had no choice but to forcibly carry her back to their room.

Once they were through the door and he had placed her on the bed, he couldn’t wait to press down on her.

Chi Yue wanted to reject him, but under his insistence, she couldn’t bring herself to be tough.

Subconsciously, she truly didn’t want to reject him.

However, her lack of enthusiasm, unlike usual, did not escape Fu Rongyin’s notice.

Afterward.

He held her in his arms, "Were you unwilling tonight?"

Chi Yue couldn’t deceive him and simply said, "I’m just a little tired."

Thinking she was thus because of Nan Bingyu’s situation, he said, "Tomorrow I’ll arrange for the caregiver to come over, and you can take the opportunity to rest properly."

Chi Yue took a long time to respond, and when Fu Rongyin looked down, she was already asleep.

After Fu Rongyin arranged for a caregiver, Chi Yue still went to the hospital as usual. What differed was that she didn’t have to do everything herself, and when Fu Mianmian wasn’t at school, she would bring along both Fu Mianmian and Nan Baixuan.

The knot Ling Jiayu had planted in her heart seemed to slowly fade. If Ling Jiayu hadn’t appeared again, Chi Yue might already have forgotten about it.

But Ling Jiayu reappeared before her, her attitude even more resolute than last time.

"Chi Yue, have you thought about what I told you?"

Chi Yue, "There’s no need to think about it, I have no reason to cooperate with you."

Ling Jiayu, seemingly driven into a corner, pulled out a stack of photos from her bag, "You still trust Fu Rong, but I don’t believe that after seeing this evidence, you can continue to trust him like before."
