    32 -32: Will You Die Without a Man?


    “I’ll be right there,” she said and hung up.


    After ending the call, Chu Shuo returned the phone to Chi Yue.


    “She’sing now, I’ll wait with you.”


    “Okay.


    Thank you.”


    Chu Shuo nced at the dishes on the table.


    Chi Yue had hardly touched anything, so he had them cleared and ordered a fresh serving.


    “Have something to eat first, she won’t be here so soon.”


    Chi Yue sat down.


    “I’ve never had the chance to treat you to a meal.


    May I have the honor today?”


    Chu Shuo smiled, “Of course.”


    Nan Bingyu arrived quickly, and seeing Chi Yue, she felt a relief.


    “Thank goodness you’re okay.”


    When Chi Yue learned that the person Nan Bingyu had arranged for her to meet wasn’t Lin Yibin, her expression darkened.


    Being switchedst minute in a matchmaking setup usually meant that the other party wasn’t interested, and someone else had taken his ce.


    But given the good rtions between the Lin Family and the Qin Family, Chi Yue couldn’t help but overthink.


    Seeing the change in Chi Yue’s expression, Nan Bingyu quickly said, “Don’t worry, Lin Yibin wouldn’t dare do anything to you.”


    Chu Shuo also added, “Lin Yibin at least won’t offend me.


    Don’t worry, I’ll go and find out what’s happening.”


    Chi Yue repeated her earlier response, “Thank you.”


    “I’ll drive you home.”


    Nan Bingyu said, “Yueyue, why don’t you stay at my ce for a few days?


    I’m worried…”


    She couldn’t finish her sentence.


    Lin Yibin was the type to hold grudges, and he had his sights set on Chi Yue.


    Even though Chu Shuo acknowledged her as his person, to Lin Yibin, anyone not publicly recognized as such was fair game.


    Chu Shuo agreed with Nan Bingyu, and ultimately, Chi Yue went home with Nan Bingyu.


    The next day, Chi Yue got a call from herndlord.


    Her apartment’s lock had been pried open, and everything inside was a mess.


    Thendlord asked if she wanted to call the police.


    Only then did Chi Yue realize that the situation was much moreplex than she had thought.


    Nan Bingyu was furious beyond measure, “This is outrageous!


    Call the police!


    We can’t let Lin Yibin get away with this—I can’t swallow this injustice!”


    Chi Yue reported it to the police, and together with Nan Bingyu, went to the police station to give her statement and then to her apartment to gather evidence with the officers.


    Chi Yue could no longer stay in her apartment.


    Nan Bingyu suggested that she stay at her ce or move back to the Nan Family if necessary.


    In the end, they decided that Chi Yue would stay in Nan Bingyu’s apartment.


    Driven by his obsession with Chi Yue, Lin Yibin had lost all reason and personally broke into her apartment, leaving behind his fingerprints.


    With the additional evidence from the surveince cameras, he was arrested.


    Because of this incident, Nan Bingyu felt profoundly guilty towards Chi Yue.


    “If I hadn’t set you up, you wouldn’t have encountered this.”


    “Arranging the blind date was my idea, it’s not your fault.


    Besides, there are too many people involved in this situation.


    Even if they hadn’t tampered with the blind date, they would have found other ways to strike.


    Don’t me yourself,” Chi Yue reassured her.


    “I know you say that, but I…


    it’s fine, I’ll protect you during this time.”


    Chi Yue forced a smile, yet her eyes concealed an indefinable mncholy.


    Lately, she had fully realized what kind of person Lin Yibin was—a tangled affair from which it was difficult to escape.


    Now that he was detained for two weeks, what would happen after that remained uncertain.


    Currently helpless, if Lin Yibin relentlessly pursued her, the repercussions were unthinkable.


    Chi Yue thought this situation was already troublesome enough, but she soon realized that moreplications were yet toe.


    That day, Chi Yue received a call from Chi Qingqing.


    As soon as she answered, Chi Qingqing started to st her.


    “Chi Yue, are you that desperate for men?


    You offend Lin Yibin and immediately get together with Chu Shuo.


    Can’t you live without men?”


    Chi Yue’s eyes darkened, and she hung up.


    Chi Qingqing called again, but Chi Yue pressed the reject button, then turned off her phone.


    After a while, her phone rang again.


    She looked at the phone she had just turned off, suddenly remembering the phone Fu Rongyin had given her in her bag.


    She took it out; it was a call from Fu Rongyin.


    Chi Yue answered, her voice indifferent, “What’s up?”


    “When did you get together with Chu Shuo?”
