Chapter 642: Chapter 642: The Child is Not His
Chi Yue expressionlessly returned the documents to Xi Yihang, "Lady Fan, after all this time, you must have more than just this simple intention, right? I heard that the Gu Family’s company is having financial problems, and if I’m not wrong, this document isn’t from my company, it’s from the Gu Family’s!"
Upon hearing this, Fan Xuesong’s expression indeed changed.
Chi Yue knew it now, "If you had no sincerity, why bother coming to me?"
Fan Xuesong snorted coldly, "Even if you’ve figured it out, so what? The divorce agreement, you must sign it today!"
Just then, Chu Shuo emerged from somewhere and stood behind Chi Yue, "Lady Fan, no harm done, I hope."
"Chu Shuo?" Fan Xuesong looked from Chi Yue to Chu Shuo and scoffed, "You’ve brought another helper? Chi Yue, one man leaves and another arrives by your side, I can use the charge of not being chaste to sue you for divorce!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Shuo laughed, "What era is this to still talk about such things?"
Fan Xuesong glared at him, "What does this have to do with you?"
Chu Shuo glanced at the time, "It’s about time. Lady Fan, instead of worrying about Old Five’s marital affairs, you might as well make a call back home and ask what happened to the Gu Family."
Fan Xuesong couldn’t care to listen, "What have you done to the Gu Family?"
"Don’t worry, with my abilities I couldn’t do much to the Gu Family, but it might not be the same with other people."
Fan Xuesong wanted to ask more, but a phone call interrupted her.
She glanced at the caller ID and instinctively looked at Chu Shuo before answering.
Whatever was said on the other end, Fan Xuesong’s face suddenly changed, and she turned back fiercely glaring at Chu Shuo, "It was you, wasn’t it?"
Chu Shuo shrugged, "I didn’t do anything."
Fan Xuesong said no more and hurriedly left with Xi Yihang.
After they left, Chi Yue asked, "What happened to the Gu Family?"
"Guess?"
Chi Yue: "..."
"Nothing much, just got into some trouble of a bankruptcy scale."
Chi Yue looked at him in shock, "You did this?"
"As I said, I don’t have the capability."
"Then who could have done this?"
"It doesn’t matter who did it, as long as the purpose is achieved."
Thinking it over, Chi Yue indeed found the reasoning sound, "Come on, let me treat you to a meal in celebration."
With the Gu Family in trouble, Fan Xuesong would have to return to Hai City, and she would definitely get some peace during this time.
In the restaurant, as they were eating, they suddenly heard a commotion.
Chi Yue looked in the direction of the noise and saw a man in his forties or fifties pulling a woman by her hair and dragging her outside.
Chi Yue instinctively wanted to rush over but was stopped by Chu Shuo.
Chi Yue, puzzled, Chu Shuo said, "It’s Lu Nanxi."
She looked closely and indeed it was Lu Nanxi.
The man had already let go, standing with his hands on his hips, cursing her with indescribable words.
Seeing Chi Yue furrowing her brows, Chu Shuo explained, "This man is her lawful husband."
Chi Yue was incredibly shocked.
She had heard that Lu Nanxi was given to an old man by Fu Rongyin; she thought it was just as she imagined, but they had actually gotten married!
Suddenly thinking of something, she asked, "Then the child in her stomach..."
"Is also his."
Chi Yue fell silent.
Seeing her troubled, Chu Shuo said, "The child isn’t his; as for why he was under that impression, I have no idea."
Chi Yue felt complicated.
She had always thought Lu Nanxi’s baby was his, and he didn’t explain; now knowing suddenly the child wasn’t Fu Rongyin’s made her feel much lighter without her even realizing it.
That night, Chi Yue came back very late.
She had been drinking and took a cab home.
Getting out of the cab, she immediately saw Fu Xingchuan standing at the front gate.
This was the first time he sought her out since Wen Shuxian appeared.
Chi Yue walked over, "It’s late, is something wrong?"
Fu Xingchuan’s eyes were slightly red, "Can you give me another chance? I’ve already called off the engagement."
Chi Yue shook her head, "It doesn’t matter whether you are engaged or not, it’s not possible between us."
"Why? You obviously have feelings for me too, has someone been threatening you?"
"No one is threatening me, no one can threaten me. Go back, it’s not early anymore."
Chi Yue bypassed him and was about to open the door and go inside when he chased after her again, "Chi Yue, have you really never liked me?"
