Early the next morning, Fu Rongyin came, bringing with him a woman named Ling Jiayu.
"Pack up, let's go."
Chi Yue didn't move. "Where are you taking me?"
"Nancheng."
Chi Yue looked at Ling Jiayu. "With her?"
Before Fu Rongyin could speak, Ling Jiayu chuckled lightly, "Otherwise, do you think I'm his secret mistress that he keeps hidden away?
As she spoke, she affectionately looped her arm through his, "Ah Yin, when we get back to Nancheng, let's go see Aunt first. It's been so many years, I don't know if she has forgotten me."
"Alright."
"Then you need to take me shopping, I have to buy her some gifts, I can't go back empty-handed."
Fu Rongyin: "Alright."
Ling Jiayu made several more suggestions, to all of which Fu Rongyin agreed, appearing very accommodating.
But Chi Yue knew that Ling Jiayu was mostly just adding to her own irritation.
Chi Yue silently packed her things, when suddenly she heard Fu Rongyin say, "You're coming with us."
