The obsessive CEO's white moonlight is me

Chapter 165 Escape

"How could I not know why you're here?" She abruptly broke free from his grasp, as if his hands were burning flames, unbearable to her. Her strength was so great that his hand snapped away with a sharp "smack."

She stood before him, staring at him sharply, as if trying to see through his eyes to uncover the secrets deep within his heart.

"I am Bai Wei, and also Ye Xingran. You probably already knew this all along, didn't you?" Her voice was cold and tinged with anger, as if she was extremely dissatisfied with his concealment of this fact.

Her question was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into his heart.

Fu Shiyue remained silent, simply gazing at her with an expressionless face, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts.

His silence, to her, seemed like a silent acquiescence.

Just an hour ago, after Fu Shiyue turned and left, Bai Wei stayed alone in her room, occasionally going downstairs to stroll in the garden outside...

However, as she was strolling alone, a strange phone call suddenly broke the silence.

The voice on the other end of the phone had been altered, making it impossible to discern the person's true identity, but that cold and mechanical electronic voice was like a bolt of lightning, piercing through the gloom in Bai Wei's heart.

"If you want to know the truth about Fu Shiyue's departure, go to the Fu family and find him."

This short sentence struck Bai Wei's heart like a heavy hammer.

She was stunned, countless questions flashing through her mind: Who is this mysterious person? How does he know about Fu Shiyue's departure? What is the truth he's talking about?

Bai Wei took a deep breath, trying to keep her voice calm: "Who are you? Why should I believe what you say?"

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have anticipated her reaction, and replied calmly, "I can help you. Haven't you always wanted to know the truth about some things? Go to the Fu family and find Fu Wenyuan, and you'll find out."

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone without hesitation, leaving Bai Wei alone, overwhelmed by endless curiosity and doubt.

Ultimately, after internal struggle and hesitation, Bai Wei decided to follow the mysterious person's advice. She couldn't suppress her desire for the truth, even if it might just be a trap, she was willing to find out.

So, shortly after Fu Shiyue left, Bai Wei also embarked on her journey to the Fu residence.

However, she did not stop asking, "You know everything, you even know who I am, but I'm the only one who's been kept in the dark like a fool?" Her voice gradually rose, and her emotions became more and more agitated.

"When I was found, I was wearing a wedding dress, which was originally meant to be worn when I married you."

"And then what? What happened next?"

Fu Shiyue remained silent.

Her words were filled with bitterness and helplessness, as if it were all a farce, and she had become the most ridiculous character in it.

"My father, Bai Chuhua, was blacklisted in the industry because of the Fu family, which caused him to incur huge debts. He had to take my brother and me on the run. It's because of you that I've been separated from my family for so many years. But apart from you, I can't remember anyone before that..."

Bai Wei's eyes reddened, and she was on the verge of collapse: "Fu Shiyue, tell me, what exactly happened?" Fu Shiyue finally spoke, his voice low: "Back then, it was the Fu family that did all this. We were sorry to the Bai family. I only found out about these things later, but I don't want you to get involved in these grudges."

"You don't want me to get involved? But I'm already involved!" Bai Wei questioned him.

Fu Shiyue said, "Back then, my father suppressed Bai Chuhua for business interests, and then your father disappeared. I wanted to investigate everything secretly and give you an explanation, so I didn't tell you."

"But what's the use of saying all this now? What's done is done. I'm going back to my father and brother; I'm going back to them."

Fu Shiyue hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her: "Bai Wei, you can't leave. You are safest if you stay by my side now."

"impossible."

Bai Wei forcefully shook off his hand, her eyes resolute: "I don't care about safety, I just want to be reunited with my family." Seeing her determination, Fu Shiyue frowned, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes. Without saying another word, he took a step forward, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and ignoring her struggles and curses, strode towards the car.

She kicked and punched his shoulders repeatedly, pounding his back with her fists, but Fu Shiyue remained as steadfast as a mountain. He shoved Bai Wei into the car, quickly locked the doors, and then got into the driver's seat.

"Fu Shiyue, you bastard! Let me out!" Bai Wei angrily pounded on the car window, her eyes filled with rage.

Fu Shiyue started the car and said without turning his head, "I'll talk to you after you've calmed down."

The car sped away, leaving Bai Wei helplessly looking out the window, her heart filled with resentment and anger.

Fu Shiyue, however, looked firmly ahead, knowing that this was the best way to protect her.

After returning to the villa, Fu Shiyue slowly brought the car to a stop.

Then he opened the car door and stepped out gracefully. He stood beside the car, his tall figure appearing exceptionally upright in the sunlight.

Then, he walked to the back seat of the car, opened the door, as if this were an extremely important moment.

The door opened, and his gaze fell on the woman sitting in the back seat.

She sat there quietly, like a blooming flower, beautiful yet fragile. Fu Shiyue gazed into her eyes, eyes as clear as lake water, yet now revealing a hint of confusion and unease.

"Are you going to walk by yourself, or should I carry you up?" This simple question carries an unquestionable tone.

His gaze never left her...

Bai Wei gritted her teeth, glared at him, crossed her arms, and stubbornly said, "I'll walk by myself." She got out of the car and hurried towards the villa, each step filled with anger.

Fu Shiyue followed behind her, keeping a certain distance.

Upon entering the villa, Bai Wei went straight to the sofa in the living room, sat down heavily, and her eyes were still full of hostility.

Fu Shiyue sat down opposite her, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Bai Wei, I know you're very angry right now, but it's really dangerous outside. I will give you a full explanation for what happened back then, but... the time isn't right yet."

The man in front of her always said one thing and did another; she simply couldn't trust him.

She sneered, "Do you think I'd believe you?" Fu Shiyue looked at her sincerely, "I'll guarantee with everything I have that I won't let you get hurt again."

He couldn't let her disappear again, just like she had before, and run away from him once more.

If that were the case, he would really go crazy.

And we will absolutely not allow her to suffer any harm.

Bai Wei turned her head away from him, but her emotions seemed to have calmed down slightly. Her eyes suddenly softened, and she said, "I've been separated from them for many years, and we've only just reunited. Could you please not take my phone away? I won't leave. But could you let me call them? My dad will worry about me..."

Fu Shiyue was silent for a moment, then finally nodded. "Okay."

As long as she can stay by his side and not go back to Bai Chuhua's side for the time being, giving her his phone to contact him through the phone is not a difficult thing for him.

"Don't worry, I've thought it through."

She slowly took the phone from Fu Shiyue's hand, her fingers touching his palm, feeling a slight coolness. Fu Shiyue gently raised his hand, seemingly wanting to caress her face, but his hand suddenly stopped a few centimeters from her cheek.

In the end, all that came out was a few words: "Get some rest, I'll always be here for you."

Bai Wei gazed at Fu Shiyue, her heart churning with complex emotions. She knew deeply of Fu Shiyue's affection for her, yet a feeling she couldn't quite put into words lingered within her. However, she knew she couldn't stay by his side forever, because she had deceived him, and she couldn't always obey his commands.

Bai Wei understood that with a man like Fu Shiyue, she couldn't confront him head-on; she had to deal with him cleverly. She adopted a strategy of gentle persuasion, using his feelings for her to launch an emotional offensive and play the emotional card with him.

Fu Shiyue took a deep breath, seemingly trying to calm his inner turmoil. He gazed at Bai Wei and said solemnly, "I will not allow anyone from the Fu family to harm you. With me here, no one can lay a finger on you, including my father, Fu Wenyuan."

His voice was deep and firm, revealing an unwavering determination.

The two gazed at each other silently, their thoughts like two intersecting rivers, each flowing in a different direction.

One person longs to escape, while the other is determined to trap them.

On the overpass, vehicles speed by, the traffic flowing endlessly, like a giant dragon weaving through the night sky, each stop and acceleration a rhythmic beat of the city.

"That woman named Bai Wei, I don't know what kind of spell she cast on Shi Yue, making him protect him so much. Your son will be killed by this woman; she's just here to take revenge on the Fu family," he muttered to himself.

Fu Wenyuan spoke to his wife, but she didn't say anything, because in this large Fu family, she had no say.

Shift of gaze —

"You cooked today yourself?" He looked at Bai Wei with some surprise. She carefully carried a steaming bowl of thin noodles out of the kitchen and gently placed it on the table in the living room.

Bai Wei slowly sat down beside him, a smile on her face, and said softly, "I've been so busy arguing these past few days that I haven't eaten properly. Come and try the noodles I cooked for you."

He looked at the bowl of noodles, steam rising gently, the noodles long and even, topped with some bright green vegetables and a few slices of tender meat, making his mouth water.

At this moment, this huge house still seems to have a touch of everyday life.

However, Fu Shiyue is ultimately no ordinary person.

He is the eldest son of the Fu family and will inherit everything from the Fu family in the future.

Whether I am Ye Xingran or Bai Wei

The chances of us ending up together are probably zero...

Fu Shiyue looked at the noodles in front of him without saying a word. He simply picked up his chopsticks, scooped up some noodles, and put them in his mouth. The noodles were chewy, the soup was fresh and delicious, and every bite tasted like home.

He didn't speak, just ate quietly. Bai Wei sat beside him, watching him silently, a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

Bai Wei had already made up her mind; tonight would be the time for her to leave this place.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, Bai Wei made careful arrangements in advance.

During dinner tonight, she secretly asked the maid to buy some sleeping pills and cleverly added them to the food.

Although this move was somewhat risky, she firmly believed it was a necessary means to achieve her goal.

"You must be tired today, go get some rest. I'm going upstairs to wash up."

After Bai Wei finished speaking, she got up and walked towards the stairs.

Not long after, he felt dizzy.

He was startled, realizing that the food might have been drugged. He forced himself to stand up, wanting to stop Bai Wei, but his legs wouldn't obey him, and he stumbled and almost fell.

Bai Wei looked back on the stairs and saw him swaying precariously. She felt a mix of emotions, but she gritted her teeth and continued upstairs.

She quickly packed her things and then carefully went downstairs.

At this moment, Fu Shiyue had already collapsed onto the sofa, his eyes glazed over, but he was still staring intently at her.

Bai Wei walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the door to leave.

Just then, Fu Shiyue, with unexpected strength, shouted, "Bai Wei, you dare to leave!"

Bai Wei trembled, but she still steeled herself and stepped out the door.

She had just stepped out the door when she heard a heavy thud behind her. Her heart skipped a beat, but she walked away without looking back.

But she didn't notice that a black sedan was quietly following behind her...
