Chapter 655: Chapter 655: But Fu Rongyin wouldn’t let her off the hook, “Explain yourself properly, why are you bringing up old grievances?
When the alarm clock went off, Chi Yue didn’t want to move at all.
Fu Rongyin tidied her up and wrapped her in his coat before carrying her out of the car.
Under the pale light of dawn, the two nestled close, enjoying this brief moment of tranquility.
Chi Yue captured the sunrise, satisfied with her shot, when another thought suddenly came to her.
“Fu Rongyin, was the sunrise you filmed back then really taken by you?”
“Huh?” Fu Rongyin didn’t respond immediately.
Chi Yue asked, “Did you really stay up all night to film it?”
“What else would you think?”
“Is it possible that you fixed the camera in place, and that’s why the footage was so steady?”
Fu Rongyin’s face darkened, “After all these years, you’re confronting me about this now?”
The video had been captured by mounting his phone on a tripod, which he’d watched for hours on end—how could she doubt him?
Of course, Chi Yue was just asking; she wasn’t really trying to make a point.
But Fu Rongyin wouldn’t let her off the hook. “Explain yourself, why are you bringing up old matters?”
“It just crossed my mind… If I misunderstood you, I’d apologize, that’s all.”
“Just an apology? Isn’t that lacking sincerity?”
“What would you have me do then?”
The next second, Chi Yue saw a mischievous smile curl on Fu Rongyin’s lips, and she turned to run.
But it was too late, Fu Rongyin grabbed her arm and shoved her back into the car.
Chi Yue panicked, pleading pitifully, “I’m so tired, I didn’t sleep last night, please let me off~”
Fu Rongyin looked at her with a half-smile, “Don’t worry, you’ll get to sleep well soon enough.”
Chi Yue wanted to cry.
She knew that Fu Rongyin had no good intentions bringing her out here—sure enough!
On the way down the mountain, Chi Yue turned her head away, ignoring him, and soon fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, the sky had darkened, and she was already lying in the Chi family’s bedroom.
She quickly got up to freshen up, and upon exiting the room, saw Fu Rongyin and Fu Mianmian playing downstairs.
Fu Mianmian, with her sharp eyes, spotted Chi Yue and waved her over, “Mommy, come here quick, Daddy and I are playing a game.”
Fu Rongyin looked up, and Chi Yue glared at him resentfully before sitting next to Fu Mianmian.
Before she could speak, Fu Mianmian climbed onto her lap and pressed against her belly.
Chi Yue thought she wanted a hug and reached to pick her up.
But Fu Mianmian stepped back two paces.
Chi Yue was puzzled, “Won’t you let Mommy hug you?”
Fu Mianmian shook her head, “It’s not that, Mommy. Auntie Xiao Yu said you have a baby in your belly now, so I can’t let you hold me anymore.”
Chi Yue was bewildered, “What baby?”
“Isn’t there one? But Auntie Xiao Yu said that if I don’t stay with you and Daddy, a baby will be in your belly.”
Chi Yue was exasperated.
How could Nan Bingyu talk to a child about such things!
She would have to have a serious talk with Nan Bingyu about this.
Clearing her throat, Chi Yue told Fu Mianmian, “That’s not true, she fooled you.”
“Really?” Fu Mianmian said, disappointed, “I thought I was going to have a little brother or sister.”
Chi Yue’s heart trembled.
She hadn’t expected Fu Mianmian to have such thoughts!
But now was clearly not the time to discuss this, and besides, her agreement with Fu Rongyin was only for a month.
Chi Yue held Fu Mianmian in her arms, soothing her for a while before finally shifting her attention.
At night, Chi Yue read in bed and finally surrendered to the persistent gaze beside her, putting down her book.
“You’ve been staring at me for a while, what do you want to say?”
“Should we consider it?” the man asked.
“Consider what?”
The man gazed at her belly, “Giving Mianmian a little brother or sister.”
