CHAPTER 674: CHAPTER 674: CHANCE ENCOUNTER

Leng Siling was also there.

Leng Siling and a man were sitting by the window, talking about something, with Leng Siling laughing enchantingly.

Chi Yue subconsciously looked over at Chu Shuo, who sat down expressionlessly nearby.

Realizing something, Chi Yue walked over and greeted Leng Siling.

"Long time no see, when did you get back?"

Leng Siling was surprised to see Chi Yue, but her smile faded a bit when she saw Chu Shuo.

"I’ve been back for a while, I thought you knew."

"If you didn’t come to find me, I really wouldn’t have known. And who is this?" Chi Yue looked at the man sitting opposite her.

"My fiancé."

Chi Yue was secretly shocked, suddenly realizing the unease about Chu Shuo related to her fiancé.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chi Yue returned to her seat.

Chu Shuo seemed to not pay any attention to Leng Siling, focusing on ordering dishes for her.

After ordering, he brought up Fu Rongyin.

"Why haven’t I seen him these past few days?"

Chi Yue took a light sip of tea, "I only found out today, he’s gone."

"Gone?" Chu Shuo didn’t understand.

"He went to Beijing."

Chu Shuo was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, "I’ve only been gone for a few days, and he’s off to develop his career in Beijing, not bad."

"Chu Shuo, do you know about the Qi Family in Beijing? Fu Rongyin was taken away by someone from the Qi family."

The smile on Chu Shuo’s face gradually disappeared, "What do you mean?"

"Old Qi claimed he was his grandson, and Lady Fan’s behavior also confirmed it, but it seems there’s something we don’t know."

The smile had completely left Chu Shuo’s face, "Tell me everything that happened during this time."

Chi Yue sighed silently and briefly recounted the events of the period.

"You mean to say, Fu Rongyin wants to divorce you and marry another woman in Beijing? Tsk, when did he become so incompetent, having to rely on a woman."

Chi Yue didn’t say anything.

She knew that since Chu Shuo was listening, he would find a way to investigate, but the results might not be shared with her.

After dinner, when the two walked out of the restaurant, Leng Siling was waiting for a car at the entrance.

Chi Yue greeted her, "Where’s your fiancé?"

Leng Siling responded indifferently, "He had something to attend to and left first."

Catching a glance from Chu Shuo towards Leng Siling, Chi Yue immediately said, "Let’s go together, Chu Shuo is supposed to give me a ride back."

Saying so, Chi Yue nudged Leng Siling into the car.

Chu Shuo glanced at them one more time before getting into the front passenger seat.

Halfway through the ride, as they were passing Chi Yue’s studio, she suddenly said, "I just remembered there was a mistake in some data, I need to go back and work overtime to redo it, just drop me off ahead."

The clumsy and flawed excuse was uttered, and both Chu Shuo and Leng Siling turned to look at her.

Chi Yue kept her composure, "Just stop here."

Chu Shuo’s lips curled slightly, and he obediently pulled over to the side of the road, where Chi Yue bolted out of the car.

Leng Siling retracted her gaze and said with a half-mocking smile, "Did you bribe her?"

"Do you think I have that ability?"

Leng Siling chuckled lightly, "She’s your beloved, how could you not?"

The car abruptly stopped on the roadside and turned off, Chu Shuo got out and opened the back door, squeezing in.

It was already too late when Leng Siling realized something was off, the man leaned in, and his large hand slid under her skirt.

Leng Siling shivered, grasping at his hand, "You dare!"

"Dare or not, didn’t you already find out last night?"

Recalling last night when Chu Shuo had forced his way into her house and slept with her, Leng Siling felt some dread.

She scooted to the side and warned, "Don’t come any closer, once or twice is enough, don’t go too far."

"Too far, how have I gone too far?"

His hand pressed down slightly harder, causing Leng Siling to wince in pain, "Chu Shuo!"

"Hmm?"

"Don’t go too far, if I don’t return, my fiancé will come looking for me."

"Hmm, I know, I’ll be quick."

Leng Siling clenched her teeth, "What exactly do you want?"

"Your place or mine?"

"Chu! Shuo!"

"Then let’s go to mine."
