<h4>Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Can’t Stand the Torment</h4> Chi Yue didn’t have time to think too much; she slipped out of bed quietly, dressed swiftly, and made a hasty retreat.


    At the same time the door closed, the man on the bed opened his eyes, his gaze clear and alert, not at all as if he had just woken up.


    He sat up unhurriedly and called Jiang Ye.


    "Contact Chang Jinnian and tell him he already knows about him and Ms. Xu’s dealings."


    Jiang Ye was puzzled, "Isn’t this a threat against him? The thing he hates the most in his life is being threatened by others. Aren’t you afraid he’ll tamper with Chi Yue?"


    "I have my ns."


    "Alright, I’ll also sell this piece of news to Ms. Xu and see if she’ll do something about it."


    ——


    Chi Yue didn’t go out for the next two days and left the contract signing with Boss Huang to her secretary.


    Luckily, the secretary didn’t disappoint her andpleted the task smoothly.


    They bought tickets and returned to Hai City that evening.


    It wasn’t until the ne touched down that Chi Yue truly felt at ease.


    She knew that Fu Rongyin had other projects in Hai City and wouldn’t be back so soon. By the time he returned, her wedding with Nan Yuan would be nearly over.


    Upon arriving at the vi, Chi Yue was embraced the moment she walked through the door.


    "I missed you to death. This business trip of yours felt incredibly long."


    Chi Yue heard the familiar voice and finally smiled, "Here I am back, how long do you n to stay?"


    "That will depend on Xi Yihang’spetence. If he finds outter, I can stay longer."


    The two walked towards the sofa, where Nan Baixuan was lying asleep, his little face slightly chubbier.


    Chi Yue grinned, "A mother knows best how to take care of her child, staying with the godmother must have been hard."


    Nan Bingyuughed softly, "But he has his uncle, right? Running around with his uncle every day, it would be strange if he gained any weight."


    Chi Yue, however, lost her smile, "What are your ns for the future? You can’t hide forever, can you?"


    "No, I won’t have to hide forever. When the time is right, I’ll pull Xi Yihang down, and then he won’t have the power to pester me anymore."


    Xi Yihang was an elitewyer, and to be honest, Chi Yue believed that even if he fell on hard times, he could still find a way to bother Nan Bingyu.


    But seeing the hopeful look in Nan Bingyu’s eyes about the future, Chi Yue swallowed the words she was about to say.


    "By the way, my brother said the wedding guest list is confirmed. Check if anyone’s been missed, and we can add them before sending the invitations out," Nan Bingyu took out a list from under the coffee table and handed it to Chi Yue.


    Chi Yue nced at it, "Let’s go with this list then."


    Nan Bingyu reflected, "After all the twists and turns, you’re finally about to be my sister-inw. It wasn’t easy."


    Chi Yue stood up, "I’m going to take a shower, don’t call me for dinner tonight."


    Chi Yue fell asleep as soon as shey on the bed, but it wasn’t a restful sleep. In a half-dream state, she saw a newborn baby, blue and purple all over, as the doctor regretfully announced to her that the baby was dead.


    She also dreamed that Fu Rongyin was choking her, demanding that she return the child to him...


    Suddenly sitting upright in bed, Chi Yue was drenched in cold sweat.


    Her face was pale as if she had been drained of all strength.


    Her illness had been stable for the past two years, so why had it seemed to worsen recently?


    Chi Yue thought about finding time toe clean to Nan Yuan about this. If he considered her a burden, then perhaps it would be better to call off the marriage.


    Waking up in the middle of the night and unable to fall back asleep, Chi Yue simply put on a coat and went to the backyard.


    After walking around a few times, Chi Yue suddenly discovered a door in the backyard leading to the neighboring vi.


    And next door was Fu Rongyin’s home.


    Chi Yue had lived here for so long without noticing this secret; no wonder Fu Rongyin always seemed to appear in front of her so timely.


    Now, everything was exined.


    It seemed that this door needed to be sealed up as soon as possible.


    After walking a few more rounds, Chi Yue was about to go back to her room when she suddenly heard a strange female voiceing from next door.


    "Your body can’t take any more strain. Listen to me, take your medicine on time, rest well, and stop pushing yourself like this. Even Guanyin descending from heaven wouldn’t be able to help you."
