Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Did You Really Think Fu Rongyin Would Marry Someone as Brainless as You?
Zhan Qing’s frown deepened almost imperceptibly.
Zhan Youyou immediately added, “Not only did she slander me, but she also slandered everyone in our family!”
Chi Yue had not expected her to be able to brazenly turn the tables without changing expression, and couldn’t help but watch her leisurely.
Seeing the frown on Zhan Qing’s brow grow even more intense, Zhan Youyou started to cry, her voice breaking with emotion, appearing utterly pitiable.
“Brother, you have to stand up for me, she’s just bullying me because she’s a local, and I’m an outsider… Also, I know Miss Chi lost a child because of my mistake, but I’ve already apologized to her, yet she not only won’t accept it, she also…”
“Also what to you?” Chi Yue took over the conversation.
Zhan Youyou sniffled, “You said I had no upbringing, which is fine, but you had to bring up my family as well, isn’t that bullying?”
Zhan Qing looked towards Chi Yue, “Is this true?”
Seeing Zhan Qing was about to take up for her, Zhan Youyou gave Chi Yue a taunting look where Zhan Qing couldn’t see.
Chi Yue couldn’t help but laugh.
“What are you laughing at?” Zhan Youyou stared at her defensively.
As far as she knew, Chi Yue was not so easily fooled, and having the means to stay by Fu Rongyin’s side meant she was no ordinary person.
“Mr. Zhan heard everything already, didn’t he? What’s the meaning of asking me like this now?”
Yes, Zhan Qing had heard it all.
When Chi Yue had walked this way, she noticed two men standing not far away talking, but she hadn’t paid much attention. It was only after Zhan Qing had approached that she realized those two men were the same ones now in front of her.
He heard it all?
Zhan Youyou quickly looked at Zhan Qing, only to see him staring back at her with a sullen expression. Her face turned deathly pale as she bit her lip and said, “Brother, it’s not what you think…”
“Isn’t it shameful enough? Hurry up and go back to Beijing.”
“But…”
Zhan Qing glanced over coolly, “But what? You really think Fu Rongyin would marry someone as brainless as you?”
“I refuse to go! Brother, I’ve been engaged to him; I’ll only marry him in my life!”
Zhan Qing’s eyes narrowed dangerously, “On the day of your engagement, he didn’t even show up. Zhan Youyou, if you keep being delusional, you won’t even be able to marry Fu Xingchuan!”
Chi Yue, surprised by his words, also noticed the fear in Zhan Youyou’s eyes.
Zhan Youyou actually had something to fear!
However, Chi Yue had no chance to dig deeper, as Zhan Youyou was taken away by Zhan Qing.
Chi Yue composed herself and prepared to leave when suddenly someone called out to her from behind.
She turned around and found that the person calling her was the middle-aged man who had been talking with Zhan Qing just now.
Chi Yue nodded slightly, “Is there something you need?”
The middle-aged man walked up to her with a dignified air, the light too dim for her to see more than a vague silhouette.
“Although it might be presumptuous, could I trouble you to give me a ride back to my hotel?”
Seeing the puzzled look on Chi Yue’s face, he explained, “I came here with Zhan Qing, and as it seems now, he won’t have the time to take me back. I don’t know anyone else here, could you possibly help me?”
Chi Yue was somewhat wary.
Since this man appeared with Zhan Qing, it possibly meant he was related to the Zhan Family.
If the same situation as last time arose…
Just as she was about to shake her head, the middle-aged man suddenly said with emotion, “You look so much like Bai Qing, especially those eyes, equally vivid.”
“You knew my mother?”
The middle-aged man smiled kindly, “More than knew her, if it hadn’t been for her heart being set on Lu Xuhui… How about this, you drive me back and I’ll tell you about your mother’s past along the way?”
Chi Yue admitted that she was tempted.
She sent Nan Bingyu her location and took the man away.
On the way, the man shared many things related to Bai Qing, and Chi Yue was frequently shocked.
She had never known that her mother was seen as such an extraordinary person in the eyes of men.
The hotel wasn’t far, and they arrived in short order.
As the man got out of the car, Chi Yue asked for his identity.
Yet the man just smiled, “We’ll meet again, girl, I’m very pleased you could take me back.”
Chi Yue couldn’t fathom his intentions and was about to ask more when he strode into the lobby, leaving her with no option but to give up.
What she didn’t know was that this scene had been captured and it hit the news headlines the next day.
Nan Bingyu’s call came just as the day was breaking.
“What’s happened?” Chi Yue asked.
“You can still sleep, huh? Get up and take a look at the news!”
