Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Truly Worthy of My Admiration
"Yueyue? Yueyue, what’s wrong with you?"
Nan Bingyu shook her anxiously.
Chi Yue came back to her senses and shook her head, "I’m fine, just... surprised. I thought..."
She had thought that when Fu Rongyin said he would not touch Lu Nanxi, he really hadn’t touched her. Now it seemed, she had been too willing to believe him.
Nan Bingyu said seriously, "Yueyue, what do you plan to do?"
Chi Yue’s eyes were firm, "Get the evidence and divorce him."
"Just like that? Wouldn’t that let them off too easily?"
Chi Yue’s gaze was clear, "His company, the houses, cars, and children, all will be mine. Even if Lu Nanxi stays with him, she can only rely on the Gu Family."
Nan Bingyu’s eyes lit up, "Done! Leave finding the evidence to me!"
That very afternoon, Chi Yue went through the discharge procedures.
All the necessary tests had been done; she would merely need to complete the remaining checks in a few days.
It was good to be discharged, so she wouldn’t have to be troubled by those two anymore.
She could also help with finding the evidence!
What Chi Yue didn’t know was that just as she left, Fu Rongyin arrived. Seeing that her hospital bed had been taken by someone else, he asked and found out Chi Yue had been discharged.
Fu Rongyin then went to the Chi Family, only to be told that Chi Yue had been picked up by Fu Xingchuan, which darkened his mood instantly.
Meanwhile, Chi Yue and Fu Xingchuan were sitting in a restaurant, looking at the dishes Fu Xingchuan had thoughtfully ordered for her. She tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Did you bring me out just to have me eat vegetarian?"
During the days at the hospital, she had craved meat so much that she even dreamt of it; this guy claimed to take her out for a meal, yet he ordered a bunch of vegetarian dishes!
Fu Xingchuan smiled, "Do you think I am that frugal? Sister, I brought you here on purpose. You were just discharged, you shouldn’t eat heavy foods. Lighter meals are better suited for you."
Chi Yue: "..."
So, she had misunderstood.
However, she didn’t show any signs of apologizing, as anyone would have thought the same.
Fu Xingchuan served her some food with the serving chopsticks, "Try this."
Chi Yue took a bite and found that while the dish looked light, it tasted quite different.
"It tastes good," she said.
But after only one bite, she put down her chopsticks. "Come on, what did you really want to talk to me about by calling me here?"
Fu Xingchuan looked hurt, "Can’t I genuinely just treat you to a meal?"
"If you really were considering me, you should have visited me while I was still in the hospital, not after I was discharged. You’re putting on a show for someone else."
Fu Xingchuan was slightly stunned and then gave her a thumbs up, "No wonder you are the woman I fell for."
Chi Yue: "Speak up, I’m in a rush to get home to take care of the kids."
Fu Xingchuan felt a bit hurt but eventually sighed. "I lost. I’ll take you home."
They had a meal, and Fu Xingchuan said nothing, which surprised Chi Yue.
However, when she arrived home, she received a call from Nan Bingyu, who said that Xu Zhenwen was about to be discharged. Fu Runan was busy arranging a blind date for Fu Xingchuan, aiming to get the wedding done before Xu Zhenwen was discharged.
Chi Yue frowned, "Is he trying to infuriate Ms. Xu?"
"Right? Ms. Xu is indeed pitiful. She raised two kids, and not one stood by her side. The two children she brought up no longer contact her because of her own actions."
However, Chi Yue thought of something else, "Do you know if she has some history with the Gu Family?"
Everyone knew that Xuesong switched the children because he hated Xu Zhenwen, but no one knew why Xuesong hated her so much.
When Chi Yue mentioned this, Nan Bingyu was also startled, "It seems no one knows. I’ll try to find out."
"Good, keep it low-key."
"Of course."
Chi Yue had nothing else to do that evening, so she took the time to keep Fu Mianmian company.
Having not seen her for several days, Fu Mianmian clung to Chi Yue in her room, not letting her go, but then she remembered that her mother was unwell, which distressed her.
Chi Yue smiled, "It’s okay, I’ll sleep in your room tonight."
Fu Mianmian immediately beamed, hugging Chi Yue’s neck, "Mommy, I love you so much."
Chi Yue curved her lips, "I love you so much too."
Fu Mianmian fell asleep contentedly.
Outside the children’s room, a tall shadow lingered by the door until there was no longer any sound inside. He then stepped away.
Chi Yue faintly heard the engine sound; when the noise slowly faded, she gradually closed her eyes.
