Chapter 653: Chapter 653: Are You That Afraid to Be Alone with Me, Huh?
Chi Yue was both angry and amused, "Fu Rongyin, you’re really getting more and more shameless!"
"Hmm, I know."
Chi Yue spewed several harsh words, but Fu Rongyin deftly defused them all; a sense of powerlessness spread from her limbs to her entire body, so she simply stopped talking.
It was only when she got home that she realized Fu Mianmian had been sent to Nan Bingyu’s place by Fu Rongyin.
Chi Yue glared at him, "You’re getting more and more out of line, sending Mianmian over without even telling me first."
"It was Mianmian’s request, and Nan Bingyu agreed."
"It better be."
Chi Yue called Nan Bingyu, and the truth proved that Fu Rongyin hadn’t lied to her; knowing the truth, Chi Yue actually felt embarrassed to face Fu Rongyin.
To avoid embarrassment, she said, "I’m going to stay at Xiao Yu’s place for the night."
Fu Rongyin suddenly pulled her into his arms without warning, "Are you really that afraid of being alone with me, huh?"
"I’m worried about Mianmian..."
"Didn’t Nan Bingyu just send you a video? She’s already asleep, are you sure you want to go over and disturb her now?"
Chi Yue: "..."
Thinking about it that way, she did seem a bit too deliberate.
Chi Yue pushed him, "I’m going to take a shower now, let me go."
Fu Rongyin didn’t stop her, and as he watched her flee guiltily, his attractive thin lips curled up slightly, and he went to the bathroom outside.
Chi Yue dawdled in the bathroom for quite some time and finally came out. She intended to call Fu Rongyin to take a shower, but the moment she looked up, she saw him wrapped in a bathrobe, reclining at the head of the bed.
His gaze was deep, like a wolf stalking its prey.
Chi Yue swallowed, with nowhere to hide, she hesitantly lifted the comforter and sat down.
Fu Rongyin reached out with a long arm, cupping her chin as he moved in to kiss her.
Chi Yue put both hands against him to keep him from getting closer, "Lady Fan came to me today."
"Hmm, I know."
He freed one hand to catch hers, and as he was about to get closer, she added, "She seemed to be trying to curry favor with me, probably wanting to use me to persuade you to go back to her."
Fu Rongyin paused, "What exactly did she tell you?"
Seeing that Fu Rongyin had stopped, Chi Yue quickly moved to the side and summarized what Fan Xuesong had told her today. After thinking it over, she decided not to tell him about the Qi family approaching her.
Fu Rongyin pondered for a moment and said, "Next time she looks for you, agree to meet and see what she wants to do."
"You don’t know what she wants to do?" Chi Yue was somewhat surprised.
She thought the intentions were quite clear from just what Fan Xuesong had said.
Fu Rongyin looked at her with a smile, "Some things aren’t as simple as they appear on the surface."
Chi Yue fell into deep thought.
If Fan Xuesong’s intent wasn’t simply to get Fu Rong to return and help her through her, then what other purpose could she have in seeking her out?
A sudden chill came over her, and Chi Yue instinctively hugged herself, only to realize that her clothes had somehow vanished.
The man’s breath enveloped her breathing so dominantly that it made her heart flutter.
Chi Yue suddenly lost the desire to push him away.
The one-month duration hadn’t ended yet, and some things between adults didn’t need to be spelled out so clearly.
She and Fu Rongyin had always been in sync on this matter. Aside from his occasional teasing, she had never been put off by it.
That night, after going through the routine once, he held her as they slept. Chi Yue stared at him blankly, hardly able to believe it.
Fu Rongyin teased with a smile in his eyes, "Want more?"
Chi Yue’s lips stiffened.
"It’s not out of the question... if you can handle it..."
Chi Yue turned over, pulling up the comforter, "Let’s sleep, I’m tired."
The man’s low laughter sounded behind her, and Chi Yue resisted the urge to turn around and hit him, automatically blocking out her senses, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.
