61: Chapter 61 Mr.
Fu, Today is not Convenient
Fu Rongyin finally stopped talking.
Chu Shuo played for a while before suggesting he should leave.
Everyone tried to make him stay, but he said with difficulty, “I’d like to stay, but I promised my future family that I would have dinner with her tomorrow.
For the sake of my happiness, I’ll have to sacrifice you guys instead.”
“Get the hell out of here!”
“You’re like this before she even becomes your family member, what will happen in the future?
Remember, if you leave tonight, starting tomorrow, we are enemies whenever we meet.”
Chu Shuo twitched the corner of his mouth and could only stay in the end.
Fu Rongyin stood up.
“I’m leaving first, you guys have fun.”
“Okay, we’ll get in touch tomorrow,” one of the friends said.
Chu Shuo was stunned.
“Why can he leave?”
“He can still keep in touch with us even if he leaves, what about you?”
Chu Shuo: “…”
——
After finishing her chat with Nan Bingyu and lying down on the bed, Chi Yue received a call from Fu Rongyin.
“Come down.”
Chi Yue glanced at the time.
“Mr.
Fu, it’s already very late.”
“You have five minutes.
In five minutes, either you come down, or I’m coming up.”
Chi Yue was silent.
Five minutes later, she was punctually in Fu Rongyin’s car.
“Mr.
Fu, is there something you need?”
“Are you having dinner with Chu Shuo tomorrow?”
“Yes.”
Chu Shuo had helped her many times, and she had never had the chance to treat him to a meal.
Luckily, she had time tomorrow.
“Cancel it.”
Chi Yue frowned.
“We are just friends.
Don’t I even have the right to have a meal with a friend?”
“He’s pursuing you.
Can you resist his advances?”
Chi Yue was stunned and said, “Chu Shuo won’t pursue me.
I’ve already made it clear to him that there’s no possibility between us.”
Fu Rongyin’s eyes were deep.
“Your attitude does not represent his, and if he openly pursues you, would you accept or not?”
Chi Yue didn’t have feelings for Chu Shuo.
Even if she did, she would restrain herself and not interact with Chu Shuo during this period.
However, Fu Rongyin thought differently.
He said, “Currently you need something from me, yet you also want to rely on Chu Shuo as a backup?”
Chi Yue was surprised, but upon thinking about it, his thoughts were not without reason since she had indeed considered approaching Chu Shuo for help before this.
“Mr.
Fu, there is nothing between Chu Shuo and me, and inviting him for a meal was just returning a favor.
Is that not allowed either?”
“In my book, no.”
Chi Yue pursed her lips.
“I understand.”
Chi Yue got out of the car, and just as she closed the door, she heard him say, “Come to No.1 Bay tomorrow night.”
…
That night, Chi Yue slept restlessly, her dreams filled with various images.
When she awoke, she was sweating profusely, her heart racing.
She dreamt of Fu Rongyin but couldn’t remember the specifics.
She did not dwell on it, it was just a dream after all.
Nan Bingyu noticed Chi Yue’s pale face and asked worriedly, “Why don’t you take a day off tomorrow?”
“I’m fine, just went to sleep late.”
“Are you really okay?”
“Really, I’m fine.
If there’s anything, I’ll call you.”
Only then did Nan Bingyu agree to let her go to work.
Near the end of lunchtime, Chi Yue’s period started.
The medicine Fu Hanyan had previously given her was still in the studio, so she took it and rested for a while.
Chu Shuo texted her saying something came up today and he couldn’t make it, suggesting they meet another time.
Chi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, rested in the studio for the noon, and felt much better before diving back into work.
After work, she put the medicine in her bag and took a taxi to No.1 Bay.
Fu Rongyin hadn’t given her a key, so she waited for him at the garage elevator entrance.
Fu Rongyin returned quite early, apparently oblivious to her discomfort.
As soon as they entered, he reached out to her.
Chi Yue spoke with difficulty, “Mr.
Fu, it’s not convenient today.”
Fu Rongyin raised an eyebrow.
“Even helping me take my coat off requires picking an auspicious day?”
