Chapter 669: Chapter 669: Get things straight before you get mad at me
It took a while, but Fu Rongyin finally suppressed his anger and spoke, "Who have you been seeing behind my back, huh?"
"I haven’t been seeing anyone behind your back, except for those who came to cause trouble; I’ve been meeting clients."
"What clients?"
"I meet so many clients every day, which one are you asking about?"
Fu Rongyin’s eyes and brows couldn’t hide his irritation, "Chi Yue, I don’t have time to joke with you."
"I don’t have time to play with you either. If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to work."
The moment her hand touched the car door, Fu Rongyin pulled her into his arms.
Chi Yue’s chin knocked against his solid chest, causing her to inhale sharply from the pain.
The next second, his long fingers lifted her chin, forcing her to look him in the eye.
"The Qi family you mentioned, is it the Qi Family in Beijing?"
Chi Yue lowered her eyelids, "I don’t know, I only know his last name is Qi."
The pressure on her chin increased, bringing tears to Chi Yue’s eyes.
Angry, she slapped his hand away, "Fu Rongyin, what kind of madness is this? If you want to know, why don’t you find out yourself?"
The man squinted and moved closer, his robust arms wound around her slender waist, their breaths mingling.
Chi Yue was baffled.
Weren’t they arguing?
This isn’t right!
Fu Rongyin pinched her waist lightly, and Chi Yue tensed up, her eyes wary.
"When did he approach you? What did you two talk about?"
Chi Yue met his gaze for a while before looking away, "A client’s privacy is not something we should pry into."
"You knew all along that the Qi family was related to her, didn’t you?"
Chi Yue finally noticed something off about Fu Rongyin. If it were any other time, he wouldn’t speak to her like this unless...
She lifted her eyelids, "You already know, so why bother asking me?"
Fu Rongyin stared at her intently, his eyes swirling with emotions she could not read.
Chi Yue felt baffled, "You know that the Qi family has someone here and you know Lady Fan’s purpose in seeking me, so why are you taking your anger out on me?"
"Can’t you stay out of messy situations?"
Chi Yue was furious.
She sternly pushed his hand away, "Then what should I do? I didn’t agree to his request, and he won’t approach you. I can’t offend him either, so what do you want me to do?"
Fu Rongyin’s expression remained unchanged, his eyes and brows still showed his irritation.
"So you still don’t trust me. You didn’t even mention such an important matter to me. Chi Yue, do I really mean so little to you?"
Chi Yue caught the look of loss in his eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
His inexplicable anger was because she didn’t trust him?
She felt both heartache and amusement, "Are you this upset just because of that?"
He said nothing, but his eyes made his feelings clear.
Chi Yue really wanted to crack his head open to see what he was thinking, but reason still prevailed.
"Fu Rongyin, you can be angry, but can you clear things up before you get angry at me? I haven’t betrayed you or colluded with your enemies, so what are you angry about? If I had told you, what would you have done? He hasn’t done anything to me, wouldn’t approaching him just be walking into a trap?"
Speaking, she cupped Fu Rongyin’s face, "If the other party came prepared, wouldn’t that exactly fall into their trap?"
Chi Yue’s tone was calm and orderly. Fu Rongyin didn’t speak, but she knew half of his anger had been soothed, he just couldn’t lower his face to admit that he was worried about her.
Finally, he let her go, "Aren’t you supposed to be going back to work?"
"After arguing like this, what work?"
