Chapter 718: Chapter 718: Daddy, don’t you want me anymore?
Chi Yue mocked lightly, “Rumors are just rumors. If she falls into my hands, she won’t be able to leave Nancheng.”
“I believe that.”
The two fell silent for a while, until Chi Yue finally spoke up, “Have you heard anything about Fu Rongyin?”
Now it was Lin Wanyun’s turn to be shocked, “You don’t know where he went either?”
Chi Yue thought for a moment, then recounted the incident of seeing Fu Rongyin at the hospital that day.
After listening to her, Lin Wanyun finally understood why Chi Yue had become the way she now was.
“So, you think that Fu Rongyin took Zhan Youyou back to Beijing, leaving you here just after having a miscarriage?”
No wonder she looked like a ghost.
“But I haven’t heard that Fu Rongyin has gone back. The Qi family is also looking for Fu Rongyin’s whereabouts, claiming to the public that Qi Yizhou disappeared during the engagement banquet and is currently missing.”
Fu Rongyin hadn’t gone back to Beijing?
This just made Chi Yue even more confused.
Seeing this, Lin Wanyun stood up, “I’ll go back and ask around. If there’s any news, I’ll come and tell you.”
Chi Yue nodded, “Where are you staying?”
“Just at a hotel nearby.”
“If you don’t mind, why don’t you stay here instead? The two kids can keep each other company.”
“Better not, Zhan Mobai you can handle, but your rest will be ruined once Zhan Qing arrives.”
Chi Yue raised an eyebrow, wanting to ask more, but Lin Wanyun didn’t give her the chance to continue and left with Zhan Mobai.
No one expected Lin Wanyun to act so quickly, as she returned the very next day with news.
Upon entering the room, Lin Wanyun sent the two children away and, with the door closed and her voice lowered, said, “I just got word, Fu Rongyin is in Beijing. He’s investigating Qi Huannan’s case.”
Fearing Chi Yue didn’t know who he was, Lin Wanyun explained, “Uncle Qi, if I’m not mistaken, is the biological father of Qi Yizhou. He’s been missing for many years, and while some say he died a long time ago, others claim he grew disillusioned with the Qi family and hasn’t been seen by anyone in years.”
Chi Yue was at a loss for words for a moment.
To say she wasn’t shocked would be a lie, but after the shock came doubt upon doubt.
If Qi Huannan was Fu Rongyin’s biological father, then why was Fan Xuesong so afraid of Fu Rongyin returning to the Qi family?
And when Fan Xuesong had her child, wasn’t Qi Huannan by her side?
How much did Xu Zhenwen know?
“Chi Yue, this matter is very complicated. I advise you not to muddle through it. Your body won’t allow it, and neither will your child allow you to drop everything and go into hiding with Fu Rongyin. Moreover, by doing this, he is clearly trying to keep you out of it.”
Chi Yue refocused her mind, “I know, thank you.”
She said this, but her expression betrayed her.
Seeing this, Lin Wanyun didn’t know what else to say.
Cheers came from downstairs, followed by Fu Mianmian’s voice, “Mommy, Zhan Mobai’s daddy is here.”
Chi Yue hadn’t reacted yet when Lin Wanyun’s face changed, and she hurriedly pulled open the door and left the room.
She quickly returned, “Remember the way I told you to contact me? Call me every three days, so I don’t end up dead in some corner without anyone knowing.”
Chi Yue: “…”
It wasn’t long before Fu Mianmian came into the room, clumsily climbing up to her, a distressed look on her face, “Mommy, when is daddy coming back?”
Chi Yue’s eyes flickered slightly, “Do you miss him?”
“Yeah, I miss him so much. Mommy, can I call daddy?”
Chi Yue nodded.
With Chi Yue’s permission, Fu Mianmian dialed Fu Rongyin’s number, and the call was unexpectedly answered.
When the man’s deep voice came from the other end, Chi Yue unconsciously clenched the blanket in her grasp.
Fu Mianmian, unaware of Chi Yue’s anxiety, innocently called out, “Daddy, why haven’t you come back to see me for so long?”
The other end fell silent for a long time, so long that Chi Yue’s palms began to sweat, before he finally spoke, “Do you miss daddy?”
“Yes! Mianmian misses daddy so much. Zhan Mobai has already come to see me, you still haven’t come back to see me. Daddy, don’t you want me anymore?”
“No, listen to mommy, and daddy will come back as soon as he finishes his work.”
