CHAPTER 684: CHAPTER 684: WEIGH YOURSELF TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU REALLY AMOUNT TO

Chi Yue didn’t speak, but many things Fu Rongyin had done were already surfacing in her mind.

Those memories etched deep into her bones could be awakened by a single careless action.

Yet, she hadn’t mentioned a word to Fu Xingchuan about them, as they belonged to their private shared memories, and bringing them up to anyone else might not elicit the same empathy.

The car arrived at the Qi family’s residence in a heavy atmosphere.

After getting out of the car, Fu Xingchuan forcibly made Chi Yue take his arm, "You can also choose not to be my companion, I don’t care whether I go or not, but you..."

"Stop with the nonsense, let’s go."

Chi Yue linked her arm with his and walked inside, and along the way, Fu Xingchuan whispered to her about the situation inside.

In the end, Fu Xingchuan said, "The Qi family is a century-old enterprise, far from as calm as it seems on the surface. See that mansion there? Almost everyone in the family lives here."

Which also meant that Fu Rongyin lived somewhere in a corner here.

Chi Yue listened carefully and cautiously noted down everything Fu Xingchuan said.

When they entered the main hall, they saw from afar Zhan Youyou with her arm around Fu Rongyin, exchanging pleasantries with friends, seemingly more like Zhan Youyou was introducing Fu Rongyin to them.

Fu Xingchuan snickered softly, "That woman Zhan Youyou, she’s even more cunning than my brother-in-law. You need to be careful around her."

Chi Yue acknowledged it with a sound, but her gaze still rested on the man.

Despite the change of setting, she could still spot him instantly in the crowd. He was still so conspicuous, so much so that he made the other elites present seem lackluster.

Indeed, if he wasn’t so outstanding, why would Zhan Youyou be interested in him?

As she was thinking, Fu Rongyin and Zhan Youyou had already approached them.

Zhan Youyou glanced at Chi Yue and then at Fu Xingchuan, "This is..."

With quick reflexes, Fu Xingchuan wrapped his arm around Chi Yue’s waist and pulled her into his embrace, "My fiancée."

Chi Yue instinctively tried to break free, but luckily Fu Xingchuan stopped her in time, and she endured it, casting a sidelong glance at Fu Rongyin, only to see the latter showing no emotion, not even sparing her a glance.

Chi Yue concealed her thoughts and nodded to Zhan Youyou, "Hello, we meet again."

But Zhan Youyou suddenly turned her gaze to Fu Rongyin, "Qi Yizhou, wasn’t this lady just trying to chat you up the other day? It seems I misunderstood, she’s actually Fu Xingchuan’s fiancée."

Fu Xingchuan held Chi Yue’s hand tightly without a sound, "You must be mistaken. My fiancée only arrived yesterday, where did you meet her the day before yesterday?"

"Is that so? Then I must have mistaken someone else," Zhan Youyou’s gaze was meaningful, "That’s even better. It means one less competitor for me."

With that, she leaned in even closer to Fu Rongyin.

Chi Yue had been hoping that Fu Rongyin would do something to break this reality, however, he did nothing. Even when Zhan Youyou leaned in, he simply helped her along with his hand.

Chi Yue, afraid of revealing any flaws, found an excuse to leave.

She stayed in the restroom for a long time, and when she walked out, she unintentionally went the wrong way.

Passing by a room, she heard someone mention "Fu Rongyin", and immediately stopped.

"Fu Rongyin didn’t recognize Chi Yue and Fu Xingchuan, which confirms that the hypnosis was successful. When will you give me the thing I want?"

That voice...

Chi Yue’s heart pounded fiercely.

It was Chang Jinnian!

Why was Chang Jinnian at the Qi family’s place?

If Chang Jinnian was involved, then it was very likely that Fu Rongyin had lost his memory.

Just as she was about to step forward to listen more, someone grabbed her hand and pulled her into the room next door.

Chi Yue recognized the person in front of her with both shock and joy, but in the next second, he coldly interrogated her, "I knew it, you had no good intentions sneaking into the Qi family’s place. Tell me, who sent you here?"

Chi Yue felt as if doused with cold water, her heart sinking as she looked at the man before her, "Fu Rongyin, I never thought that one day you would forget me too... But it doesn’t matter, I also forgot you for ten years, so we’re even."

"Although I don’t know what you’re talking about, but..." the man suddenly quieted his voice, leaning in very close, "if you’re trying to seduce me, you should weigh your own worth first."

Chi Yue frowned, "What are you talking about!"

He looked down, his gaze falling somewhere.
