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

Chu Ningyi threw an extremely cold glare at her before he picked the little darling up and walked over to open the door.

Shui Anluo pulled a face behind his back. She then watched as Chu Ningyi opened the door. A salesperson from the supermarket downstairs was standing at the doorway with a cart filled with items behind him.

“Director Chu, these are the items you’ve asked for.”

Shui Anluo stuck her neck out to look outside, wanting to see what Chu Ningyi had bought.

The salesperson pushed the cart in and began to put the items on the table.

Shui Anluo emerged from the kitchen and stared at the items on the table. There was food – chicken, duck, and fish. There were drinks – milk, milk, and milk. There were also useful items like the breast pump she had needed.

Shui Anluo’s lips twitched as she watched the salesperson take all the things out. She then bowed slightly and left.

“Director Chu, why have you bought all these?” Shui Anluo asked as she walked to the pile of stuff on the table.

The icy-cold Chu gave her a look. That look asked her to figure it out herself as he carried the little darling upstairs.

“According to reports, this storm will go on for three days. The precipitation from last night until dawn alone has already exceeded the cumulative precipitation levels of the entire year. This storm has caused landslides and flash floods. The military is currently undergoing search and rescue.”

The news anchor’s speech prompt was faster than the usual broadcast. The video image behind her showed landslides from multiple areas and scenes of flash floods.

Chu Ningyi, who was standing at the flight of stairs, turned around to look and happened to notice the situation at the Chu Group’s hospital.

Shui Anluo was watching as well and saw several doctors that she was acquainted with. As she watched them get into cars, Shui Anlou knew that they were heading to the disaster areas.

The leader of the group was none other than Qiao Huihe.

Shui Anluo knew that Qiao Huihe had participated in this sort of thing every year without regard to her age. She used to admire Qiao Huihe but after what Mo Lusu had told her, she felt that perhaps this was Qiao Huihe’s form of atonement for forcing her own daughter to die.

“This time, the Chu Group’s hospital was also the first to rush to the disaster area with a rescue team. The leader of the group is the old Director Qiao Huihe who has just turned seventy years old. This is the kind of model spirit that we should all strive to achieve.”

The news anchor continued to speak but Shui Anluo smirked. ‘A model spirit we should all strive to achieve?’ Qiao Huihe’s every move on the outside was indeed worthy of learning from but has no one considered what she had done thirty years ago?

Chu Ningyi noticed the ridicule on the corners of Shui Anluo’s lips and frowned. Shui Anluo’s reaction had revealed one thing to him — she had believed Mo Lusu!

‘She believes Mo Lusu?’

Chu Ningyi laughed scornfully as his eyes grew icy. She had never believed Chu Ningyi yet she never suspected Mo Lusu’s words.

Shui Anluo reached out to take the remote and turned the television off. She did not want to listen to Qiao Huihe’s past, especially the brilliant part of her past history.

“Don’t judge someone based on only one person’s words,” Chu Ningyi spat icily before he turned around and carried the little darling upstairs.

Shui Anluo clenched her fist, upset by his words.

“Is that wrong? Even you had admitted to it. Senior Brother’s mother, your own aunt, had been forced to death by someone on your side,” Shui Anluo spat icily.

Shui Anluo knew that she was so focused on this matter because Mo Lusu had asked her how she planned to face a future with Chu Ningyi. She was afraid, would a woman who had done such a thing to her own daughter spare her or her child?

After all, Qiao Huihe does not like her. She even hates her.
