36 -36: He Did Not Deny
After work, Nan Bingyu invited Chi Yue to have dinner together.
As soon as she saw Chi Yue, Nan Bingyu said, “Something sensational happened in our circle yesterday, did you hear about it?”
“What happened?”
“I heard that yesterday a woman claimed outside that she was pregnant with Fu Rongyin’s child.
It just so happened that Gu Qingyu overheard this.
Gu Qingyu was devastated, and eventually, the Fu Family took this woman to have an amniocentesis.
Do you think Fu Rongyin would really do such a thing?”
Chi Yue casually sipped her tea, “Instead of asking me, why don’t you just ask him directly?”
“I wouldn’t dare.
I heard that when Gu Qingyu asked him, he didn’t respond directly either.
Who would have the courage to ask him personally?”
Chi Yue paused slightly, “He didn’t deny it?”
Nan Bingyu, “But he didn’t admit it either.”
For some reason, Chi Yue felt extremely anxious.
If Fu Rongyin really had gotten someone else pregnant, according to the timing, it would coincide with the times she had been with him.
Thinking about sharing a man with someone else made Chi Yue feel very uncomfortable.
Not wanting Nan Bingyu to notice something was off, Chi Yue stood up, “I’m going to the restroom.”
“Okay, I’ll order the dishes first.”
As Chi Yue stood at the sink washing her face, two women walked in, chatting and laughing.
“Did you hear?
Fifth Young Master Fu has an illegitimate child outside.
It’s said that Gu Qingyu even took the person for a paternity test.
If the child isn’t his, it’s still manageable, but if it is, what do you think Gu Qingyu will do?”
“What else can she do?
She’ll have to take the child and raise it herself.”
“She’s willing to raise someone else’s child?”
“Have you ever seen any other women beside Fifth Young Master Fu?”
“That makes some sense…”
Chi Yue came out of the restroom, her expression even colder than before.
Nan Bingyu, always straightforward, didn’t notice Chi Yue’s odd mood.
She said, “Chu Shuo called you just now, I gave him the address, and he said he’d come to pick you up.”
“Okay.”
“By the way, are you really together with Chu Shuo?”
Chi Yue thought for a moment, briefly shared her situation with Chu Shuo with her, and then said, “I haven’t decided yet.”
Nan Bingyu gasped, “Chu Shuo really has designs on you.
Yueyue, think it over carefully.
You have an affair with sFifth Young Master, and whether or not you ever disclose this relationship, if you get together with Chu Shuo, you won’t be able to avoid seeing him.”
Chi Yue was well aware of that.
But she now needed someone to cooperate with her, to help her retrieve what belonged to her.
She knew that once Chu Shuo cared, she couldn’t use him like this anymore.
Just as she was thinking, Chu Shuo arrived.
“Why haven’t you started eating yet?”
“We’ve just ordered,” Nan Bingyu said.
“I’ve already eaten,” Chu Shuo said.
Nan Bingyu scorned, “You’ve eaten and you still came?”
Chu Shuo smiled lightly, “I came to pick up Chi Yue.”
Chi Yue looked up, “Xiao Yu can take me back later.”
“Then it’d be trouble for Xiao Yu to drop me home too.”
Nan Bingyu looked from one to the other, saying, “Are you treating me like a driver now?”
After saying that, she turned to Chu Shuo, “Chu Shuo, is the rumor going around true?”
“I don’t have the guts to ask, but him having another woman is definitely true.”
Nan Bingyu glanced at Chi Yue unconsciously, felt it was inappropriate, and redirected her gaze with a light cough, “Gu Qingyu must be furious.”
“She’s already taken the person for a DNA test, right?
The results will be out tomorrow.
Oh, by the way, she went to Chi Yue’s studio for it, didn’t you know?”
That last sentence was directed at Chi Yue.
Nan Bingyu suddenly looked at her, shocked.
