The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting

When Shui Anluo arrived home, the little darling babbled and asked to be held. Furthermore, he knitted his little brows as if to say that if his mommy refused to hold him again, he was going to burst into tears.

Shui Anluo reached out and scooped the little darling up from his cot. She planted a big kiss on his little face and said, “Mommy misses you so much.”

The little darling’s little mouth smiled toothlessly at his mommy. Chu Ningyi then walked in and pinched his chubby little cheeks. This kid was getting chubbier. His little face had grown one entire circle bigger from when he had first arrived.

“Lin Qianchen has resigned,” Chu Ningyi mentioned coldly.

Shui Anluo raised her brow. She had already known about this when she watched Lin Qianchen leave the hospital back then.

“Doesn’t she need to give one month’s notice before she can resign?” Shui Anluo asked curiously. She could not have possibly been allowed to leave so soon.

Chu Ningyi sat on the couch and replied nonchalantly, “It’s nothing much, it’s just a matter of her signing a discharge contract before we left the hospital.”

Discharge contract?

The corners of Shui Anluo’s mouth twitched. Big Brother, that’s not a discharge, that’s a dismissal.

When Director Chu was vicious, he could be far more vicious than Lin Qianchen. Chu Ningyi had slapped Lin Qianchen personally and did not even give her the chance to resign. Instead, he had dismissed her immediately. Shui Anluo believes that Lin Qianchen’s heart must have given up completely by now.

“Had you teamed up with Senior Brother?” Shui Anluo remembered that their conversation with her senior brother before he left had been rather unusual.

“Oh, I already guessed it when you mentioned the notebook so I had called Mo Lusu after that and asked him to allow Lin Qianchen to defeat him on purpose. This was the only way for make her complacency rise to its peak.”

Besides, this was also the only way to prevent Mo Lusu from solving the problem for Shui Anluo.

The great Director Chu would definitely never say this to his little foolish girl.

Shui Anluo carried her son and silently turned around to walk upstairs. She needs to distance herself from the great Director Chu or he would be calculative with her until even her skin and hair would be gone.

Chu Ningyi raised his brows as he watched her walk upstairs but did not say a word. Instead, he headed into the study to handle the previously unresolved issues from Soaring Distance Technologies.

Shui Anluo finished feeding her son upstairs. The little darling was now in a good mood after eating his fill. He kicked his little legs on the bed and started to play around as Shui Anluo sat on the bedside and watched him.

The little darling rarely cried. He would only cry based on two issues — his survival, for example, eating, drinking and pooping. The other issue was if he was unable to detect his daddy’s presence. Other times, he was more obedient than most children.

Shui Anluo called Mo Lusu to thank him and to tell him that the problem has been settled.

“I know, after all, he’s the one handling it.” A sense of helplessness could be heard in Mo Lusu’s voice. Initially, he could have solved the problem on his own but with Chu Ningyi in action, he was only left with the option of cooperating with him.

Shui Anluo was shocked. “But I still want to thank you, Senior Brother, it’s just that the notebook…” Shui Anluo muttered softly. Her senior brother had made those notes for her out of the kindness of his heart yet she had thrown it away.

“It’s fine. Next time, if you have any questions, just ask me.” Mo Lusu smiled.

Before Shui Anluo could say anything else, the room’s door swung open. Shui Anluo looked up to stare at the man at the doorway. She blinked, curious about his entrance.

Chu Ningyi stared at Shui Anluo before he walked in and scooped the little darling into his arms. The little darling squealed and gave his daddy a big smile.

“Starting tomorrow, Director Qiao will be your personal mentor,” Chu Ningyi declared coolly.
