Entangled with My Ex's Uncle

Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Psychological Defense Collapses

Chi Yue turned her head and indeed saw Fu Rongyin’s car following not too far behind.

"Do you want to get out? He might be worried about you..."

"No need," Chi Yue interrupted Leng Siling, "Let’s see what he can do."

Leng Siling sighed silently.

A good couple, who knew they would suddenly come to this stage. She had once pestered Chu Shuo, asking whether Fu Rongyin had any difficulties. However, Chu Shuo told her not to meddle in others’ affairs.

Leng Siling felt that the relationship Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin had for so many years shouldn’t just end like this, yet Chu Shuo had told her that their divorce certificate was real, and the agreement was signed.

Everything happened so fast that it was unexpected.

However, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that Fu Rongyin still had lingering feelings for Chi Yue; maybe there really was some hardship he faced.

After dropping Chi Yue at the villa, Leng Siling left. From the rear-view mirror, she saw Fu Rongyin’s car stop at the entrance of the villa, and the tall man got out of the car.

The car turned a corner, and she couldn’t see anything, unsure whether Fu Rongyin went inside or not.

On this side, as soon as Chi Yue entered the house, the doorbell rang.

Through the video intercom, she saw Fu Rongyin.

"Is there a matter?" Chi Yue’s voice betrayed no emotion.

"I’m here to see Mianmian."

It was the weekend and Fu Mianmian was indeed at home. Thinking of the content of the divorce agreement, Chi Yue opened the door.

When Fu Rongyin entered, Fu Mianmian was waiting for him at the entrance; seeing Fu Rongyin, she reached out for him to hold her.

"Daddy, why has your business trip taken so long? Don’t you miss Mianmian?"

Fu Mianmian complained, "I thought you didn’t want me and mommy anymore."

Fu Rongyin swept his gaze around the living room, not seeing Chi Yue.

Fu Rongyin, holding Fu Mianmian, walked to the sofa. The nanny brought over a fruit platter and then left.

"Sorry, how about daddy makes it up to you later?"

Fu Mianmian asked cautiously, "Will you be gone for a long time again? Daddy, when you’re not home, mommy doesn’t smile anymore and often zones out."

Fu Rongyin froze.

"Daddy, please go and cheer up mommy. She’ll be really happy to know you’re back. Hurry, go."

As she spoke, Fu Mianmian pulled him upstairs.

In the master bedroom, Chi Yue had taken medicine and was lying in bed resting; hearing footsteps, she instinctively looked up and saw Fu Rongyin walking in, followed by Fu Mianmian.

She was just about to call to Fu Mianmian when she saw her secretly smile and say, "Mommy, daddy has something to tell you."

Before she could respond, Fu Mianmian walked out, casually closing the bedroom door behind her. w(e)bnov el.com

Chi Yue: "..."

Had she not known how mischievous Fu Mianmian was, she might have suspected that Fu Rongyin had instigated this.

She simply lay down again and closed her eyes.

The doctor said her stomach issues were caused by irregular meals, and it wouldn’t be too serious as long as she paid attention to her diet.

She recalled how recently she had used work to numb herself, often forgetting to eat, and didn’t expect to face the consequences so soon.

A cold hand touched her forehead; Chi Yue suddenly opened her eyes, and the hand had already been withdrawn. noveldrama

"Mianmian said you were sick. Where does it hurt?" View the correct content at free.w e bn.ov(e)l(.)com.

"Thank you for your concern, but nothing hurts."

Her icy tone caused Fu Rongyin’s voice to sink lower, "Chi Yue, I entrusted Mianmian to you because I believed you could take care of her. And what happened? You can’t even take care of yourself. If you don’t want to take care of her, you can give her to me."

"Have her live with you and a stepmother? No matter how good a stepmother is, she’s still a stepmother. If she could accept a stepmother, she wouldn’t only recognize me. If you want to rise in the world and find us troublesome, just go. We, mother and daughter, are not holding you back."

Chi Yue was angry and, being ill, her emotional defenses were easily breached. At this moment, she couldn’t bear to hear such harsh words.

And yet, Fu Rongyin’s first words were about taking custody of Fu Mianmian. How could she accept it?
