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

Chu Ningyi stared cooly at her then looked at her foot again. What was he doing? It looks pretty obvious.

“I don’t need your concern, I can walk on my own.” Shui Anluo recovered her ice-cold exterior and struggled to get down.

However, Chu Ningyi only held her even tighter. How could he let her struggle?

“Knock it off, Shui Anluo,” Chu Ningyi restrained her struggling body and warned in a dark voice.

Why would Shui Anluo listen to him? She continued to struggle. “Let go of me,” Shui An insisted through gritted teeth.

“If you don’t knock it off, I’ll kiss you,” Chu Ningyi replied with a blackened face

‘Number two in the secret book of love. If a woman disobeys, kiss her. Kiss her until she complies.’

This was what Qiao Yaruan had told him to do. Even though he did not find this reliable, it was also not something he could accomplish.

Shui Anluo was shocked and in disbelief over what she had heard. What did he just say?

‘If you don’t knock it off, I’ll kiss you?’

‘How could these words possibly have come from him?’

Shui Anluo’s large eyes filled with amazement. She gazed at him with a look in her eyes that clearly stated – ‘Director Chu, are you possessed?’

Chu Ningyi stared at the silenced Shui Anluo and his heart gasped in amazement. Indeed, Qiao Yaruan’s method was effective. However, he felt strangely disappointed. Had she continued to retaliate, would he have been able to kiss her?

Chu Ningyi carried Shui Anluo into the nurses’ control room then watched as they brought the antiseptic over. He did not wait for the nurses to do it and acted on his own instead. He sat opposite Shui Anluo and placed her foot on his lap. He then used a wet paper towel to gently wipe the mud from her foot. He looked so serious as if he was treating a precious piece of jewellery, afraid of destroying it if he used too much force.

Chu Ningyi wiped her feet carefully. Qiao Yaruan had said that if he really had no idea what it means to have concern outside of logic, he should try to do everything for her by himself. Perhaps he would be able to find an answer from this.

Chu Ningyi had thought that as long as he arranged everything for Shui Anluo, regardless of the issue, he would be doing it for her own good. However, now that he was personally doing everything for her, he realized that he did not find it revolting and even felt a greater sense of accomplishment than if he had sent someone else to do it for him.

Shui Anluo’s heart was drumming very loudly from his treatment. She really wanted to ask if Director Chu has been possessed by something strange?

However, Shui Anluo believes that if she asked this question, Chu Ningyi would strangle her.

“Shui Anluo, let me say two things,” said Chu Ningyi as he looked up at Shui Anluo.

Shui Anluo shuddered. This side of Chu Ningyi was too weird. She wanted to indicate that this baby was timid so do not scare the baby.

“This is the first time that I’ve ever truly been in love,” Chu Ningyi murmured. “So I don’t know what I should do.”

Shui Anluo was really shivering now. However, she turned to look outside. He was lying, his first love was clearly Yuan Jiayi. They had been so good together that he had even refused to get married because of Yuan Jiayi but now, he was claiming that this was his first time being in love.

Only a ghost would believe that!

No, even ghosts would not believe him!

“I…”

“Alright, you’ve said two things,” Shui Anluo cut him off. This side of Director Chu was much too strange, she could not resist him.

Could it be that she was not the one who had been upset yesterday but Director Chu instead?

Black lines formed on Chu Ningyi’s forehead. Was she that unwilling to listen to what he had to say?
