Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Chi Yue Sensitive to Key Words."I understand. Well, I’m going to be traveling abroad for a conference soon, and I’ll bring up your situation there to see how we can resolve it." Chi Yue: "Thank you." Situ En suddenly thought of something else, "Have you met Situ Wei’an?" Chi Yue: "I met her once at the hospital." "I heard she mistook you for a caretaker. I’m sorry, that’s my family’s lack of discipline; if you feel wronged, I’ll call her out so you can vent." Chi Yue grinned, "Can’t we do it now?" "She has returned to Hai City. She is getting married in a couple of days... After my conference ends, I’ll also move to Nancheng." Though Hai City is good, it always lacks a bit of humanity; interactions always seem to carry a hint of self-interest." Chi Yue said, "That’s great, it means I’ll have another friend in Nancheng." Originally, they had planned to picnic, but Chi Yue and Nan Bingyu, finding the weather agreeable, decided to camp instead and set up the tents they had prepared. Separating the two tents by gender worked out just right. At night, Chi Yue and Nan Bingyu sat on the grass and chatted. Chi Yue had observed all day and realized that Xi Yihang truly cared for Nan Bingyu, to an incredibly detail-oriented degree. Chi Yue teased, "You’re entirely at Lawyer Xi’s mercy now, aren’t you planning on committing yourself to him?" Nan Bingyu said, "The world is so beautiful, why rush into the hall of marriage?" "You said it yourself, it’s a ’hall’; it must be better than a single apartment." "If it’s as great as you say, why aren’t you planning to find someone and get married?" Chi Yue half-joked, "It’s not like anyone’s proposing." Nan Bingyu, realizing she had spoken wrongly, quickly corrected herself, "It’s those men’s lack of discernment, not appreciating what they could have." Chi Yue smiled without commenting. Seeing it was getting late, Nan Bingyu said, "Let’s go back to sleep, we have work tomorrow." Chi Yue’s company is now Bai Dongyang’s, and although Nan Bingyu still works there, nothing has changed except who truly holds the reins. The night was deep, and all around the tents, it was silent. Nan Bingyu was still messaging Xi Yihang when suddenly, Xi Yihang asked her to come out. After she went out, she found Xi Yihang, neatly dressed, waiting for her. "What’s the matter?" "I can’t sleep without you by my side." Nan Bingyu, speechless, "Isn’t it just one night?" "Will you come to the car with me?" "No way!" Although Nan Bingyu is quite open, she strongly resists such a confined space as a car. Xi Yihang simply stood there, looking at her. Feeling cornered by his gaze, Nan Bingyu said irritably, "Wait outside, I’ll go get my bag." Thinking of leaving Chi Yue there alone made her uneasy, but despite several calls, she couldn’t wake Chi Yue. Xi Yihang, knowing her concerns, said, "It’ll be fine, isn’t Situ En next door?" Situ En’s tent was right next to Chi Yue’s; any significant noise and Situ En would surely hear it. Reassured, Nan Bingyu let go of her worries. Once in the car, Nan Bingyu yawned continuously, and Xi Yihang, feeling sorry for her, said, "You go to sleep; I’ll carry you back home once we get there." "Alright, just drive safely." With that, she closed her eyes, and soon she was asleep. Chi Yue woke up as the sky began to brighten, startled by the face in front of her. Situ En woke up startled too, seeing it was her in the tent, he turned pale. He quickly checked his clothing and, finding himself properly dressed, he breathed a sigh of relief. "What’s going on here?" Sёarch* The Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chi Yue, holding her sleeping bag, shook her head, clearly not yet over the shock. Once he calmed down, Situ En stepped outside the tent and realized he had ended up in Chi Yue’s tent. Cooling down, Situ En stood outside the tent and said to Chi Yue, "Are you alright? You should call them first to find out what happened." By then, Chi Yue had also calmed down and dialed Nan Bingyu’s number. Nan Bingyu quickly answered the phone, apologetically saying, "I’m sorry, Yueyue, Xi Yihang suddenly wanted to come back with me last night. I thought, since Situ En was nearby, I didn’t need to wake you." Chi Yue pressed her lips tightly, "Xiao Yu, normally your jokes are fine, but how can you joke about this?" Thinking Chi Yue was blaming her for leaving her alone without considering her safety, Nan Bingyu continued, "I really made a mistake, please don’t be angry, okay? I thought with your tents next to each other, if anything happened, Situ En would know right away." Chi Yue caught the key words sensitively. "You mean we were sleeping in separate tents?" "Yes, wait, what do you mean by that?" Slowly, Nan Bingyu started to feel uneasy. Sure enough, the next second, Chi Yue’s words made her jump out of bed.
