Chu Ningyi was pushed away and could only watch Shui Anluo squat on the ground. He sighed and walked over before slowly squatting down in front of her. He then reached out and tidied her messy hair.
“Why had you said that during the meeting? You could’ve exposed her after finding the evidence, wouldn’t that have been better? That way, at least you’d ensure that you wouldn’t get hurt,” Chu Ningyi explained helplessly. This girl was still too young and did not know how to be pragmatic. “Luoluo, when you run into trouble next time, learn to hold your temper. You must also remember to inform me. Don’t be like a firecracker that explodes into the sky after being ignited. Ultimately, you’re the only one who’d get hurt.”
Chu Ningyi’s voice was unusually gentle and contained all the heartache that he felt for her.
Shui Anluo slowly lifted her head. Her large eyes were tainted with rain and tears.
“You believe me?” This was all that mattered to Shui Anluo.
Chu Ningyi slowly traced his hand from her hair to her face and wiped away the moisture from her eyes.
“I believe that you don’t have the IQ to plagiarize. After all, you’ve always been that foolish.” Chu Ningyi reached out and pressed her against his shoulders. He gently patted her trembling shoulders as he said, “Shui Anluo, I’m your husband.”
He wanted to tell her that a husband’s purpose does not only include settling bills. He would bear all her grievances and he should solve all her problems.
Shui Anluo pressed her forehead against his shoulder as her tears overflowed even more. After a long while, she mumbled, ” Ex-husband 1 .”
An ex-husband was not the same as a husband!
Chu Ningyi’s chuckles rang in her ears. Shui Anluo could not resist from shrinking her neck due to this strange warmth.
Chu Ningyi helped her to her feet and Shui Anluo stared at him with her reddened eyes. “My notebook.”
“It’s raining so heavily, even if you do find your notebook, it’s probably useless now,” Chu Ningyi frowned and replied. “I’ll handle this.”
“But that notebook contained notes that Senior Brother had made for me.” Shui Anluo noticed the ugly look on Chu Ningyi’s face when she finished explaining but before she could say anything else, Chu Ningyi had dragged her away from that place.
Chu Ningyi’s expression was cold. She had hunted for the notebook because Mo Lusu had given it to her. He would only allow her to find it if he had lost his mind.
Chu Ningyi dragged Shui Anluo back to the condominium. Maid Yu stared at the pair curiously again and at the water stains on the ground. A strange stench followed them as they passed by.
Had these two fought all the way to the garbage bins?
Chu Ningyi threw Shui Anluo into the bathroom and immediately declared, “Wash yourself clean, you’re so filthy.”
Shui Anluo trembled as she watched the bathroom door close abruptly. She could not stop shivering as she looked at her dirty skirt. Alright, she was indeed very filthy.
However, what had he just said?
Shui Anluo, I’m your husband!
Shui Anluo lowered her head as the corners of her lips lifted slightly.
He had asked her to go to him first the moment something happened. He could help her to solve anything.
This same time last year, she had run to him first but what happened in the end? All she received was disappointment.
After Shui Anluo showered and walked downstairs, Chu Ningyi had also showered and was now holding the little darling in the living room. He was waiting for her to come down.
Shui Anluo slowly made her way down. The little darling’s large eyes blinked as he stared at his mommy and he clapped his little hands. How wonderful, he could see his daddy and mommy this afternoon.
Chu Ningyi was still frowning, his mood did not seem to have gotten any better.
