CHAPTER 711: CHAPTER 711: THE LITTLE UNGRATEFUL ONE

Having returned for quite a while, her attention had constantly been on Fu Mianmian and she hadn’t found time to talk to Chi Jianshan.

After her return, Chi Jianshan hadn’t inquired much about Fu Rongyin and Nan Yuan, and she thought it was because there was no opportunity. Only now did she realize that Chi Jianshan hadn’t shown much worry since her return.

Once she pointed it out, Chi Jianshan didn’t continue to hide the truth, "Nan Yuan phoned me, asking me to persuade you."

Chi Yue’s gaze grew even more dangerous, "So, you have a way to contact Nan Yuan."

This was a statement, not a question.

Nan Bingyu and Fu Hanyan were also shaken and stared at Chi Jianshan in shock.

They had sat all afternoon and evening and hadn’t noticed anything amiss about him, yet Chi Yue had confirmed Chi Jianshan’s contact with Nan Yuan with just a couple of sentences.

Moreover, her reasoning process was rational and well-founded.

Seeing that he couldn’t keep it hidden any longer, Chi Jianshan still didn’t loosen his lips, continuing to persuade them, "I’ve heard all about what’s happening in Beijing, you shouldn’t go there. Leave it to them to handle. Nan Yuan said, he will sort things out and then come back."

"Then did he assure you that he could bring Fu Rongyin back?"

"This... didn’t you also fail to bring someone back? Yueyue, I know you’re worried about him, but think about it, if he really hasn’t lost his memory, you being there will only hinder him."

Chi Yue narrowed her eyes, her expression showing she was on the verge of anger.

Nan Bingyu quickly intervened to smooth things over, pulling Chi Yue away, "Uncle, let me take her away first; I’ll bring her back to you tomorrow morning."

Fu Hanyan quickly followed them out too.

Stepping outside the main entrance, Nan Bingyu said earnestly, "If it really was Fu Rongyin’s doing, then he truly went to great lengths. Yueyue, let’s wait at home for three days; just three days. If he doesn’t return, then the three of us will go to Beijing together."

Chi Yue smirked, "Are you sure?"

"Don’t underestimate us; they say three cobblers surpass Zhuge Liang. Have some confidence in yourself."

Fu Hanyan added, "Xiao Yu is right; we’ll wait three days, and you can spend time with Mianmian during these days."

Thinking of Fu Mianmian’s grievously teary, bright red eyes, Chi Yue’s heart softened in the end.

The three relaxed outside for an hour, then Chi Yue accompanied Nan Bingyu to the Nan Family.

Upon entering, the lights in the living room were brightly turned on, and a man sat on the living room sofa.

Upon hearing their voices, he turned around, his black pupils filled with bloodshot veins.

He looked at Nan Bingyu with a grievance, "Weren’t you supposed to catch the afternoon flight? It’s already deep into the night..."

Nan Bingyu casually responded, "Oh," as she walked over to him and took the little princess from his arms, "We ate something outside before coming back, it’s been too long since we’ve spent time together."

The little princess awoke with the noise, her eyelids fluttered open, and she started crying loudly.

Nan Bingyu instantly stiffened, at a loss as she looked towards Xi Yihang.

Xi Yihang helplessly took the baby, gently patted her twice, and the little princess quickly fell asleep again.

Chi Yue looked shocked, "Is this..."

Nan Bingyu cursed with a laugh, "This ungrateful little thing, she must choose who to sleep with, and if she wakes up in the middle of the night not seeing Xi Yihang by her side, she’s sure to cry."

So now the little child was cared for by Xi Yihang, which also relieved Nan Bingyu of some burden from another angle.

Chi Yue didn’t see anything wrong with it; after all, the child was Xi Yihang’s, and it was normal for the child to recognize him.

Nan Bingyu let Xi Yihang take the child back to their room, leaving herself behind to take Chi Yue to the guest room.

After closing the door, Chi Yue said, "Xi Yihang is not bad, even after losing his memory."

Nan Bingyu responded, "I know; if I could spend a lifetime like this, I wouldn’t mind at all."

Speaking of which, she let out a sigh.

"It’s only temporary. If Lady Fan loses Fu Rongyin, Xi Yihang will become her sole support, and she will defiantly use Xi Yihang to seize the Gu Family’s assets. Moreover, from what I know, Lu Cheng has already started to groom his own people."
