However, Shui Anluo enjoyed Maid Yu’s nagging. Each time this happened, she could really feel the concern Maid Yu felt for her.
Chu Ningyi carried Shui Anluo upstairs but did not put her in the guest room. Instead, he went to his own room.
Shui Anluo was in a mild daze. Her small hand gestured to the other direction as she stammered, “My room is that way.” She kindly reminded him.
Chu Ningyi shot her a look, indicating for her to realize things for herself. He placed her on his bed and helped her take her shoes off. He then grabbed her collar and took off her clothes.
“Ahh…” Shui Anluo screamed and immediately shrank into the blankets. She eyed him cautiously. “What’re you doing?”
Chu Ningyi stared at her as if he were looking at an idiot and threw her clothes onto the ground. “Filthy,” he replied in a dark voice.
Alright, Shui Anluo felt that she had indeed overanalyzed things. Director Chu was a cleanliness freak and these clothes had been hit by vegetables and other dirty things.
Chu Ningyi sat on the bedside as he reached out and touched the red marks on her face. A sharp light flashed across his eyes. That woman was truly vicious.
Shui Anluo clutched the sides of the blanket with her little paws and pulled it up to her chin until only her little head peeked out. She stared at Chu Ningyi’s frown and said carefully, “Her injuries are definitely worse than mine.”
Even though she had been afraid at the time, she had seen it all very clearly — her empress dowager’s actions had been rather vicious.
“Are you happy?” Chu Ningyi asked coldly. Regardless of how bad Shui Anjiao’s injuries were, it did not change the fact that Shui Anluo was injured.
Shui Anluo shrank her head under the blankets further when she heard the ice-cold tone in his voice. She replied weakly, “She was punched, right?”
“You…” Chu Ningyi was frustrated with Shui Anluo and raised his hand to hit her.
“Oh my, Young Master, what’re you doing?”
Shui Anluo had pulled the blanket up and buried herself completely in it when she heard Maid Yu’s cry. Shui Anluo thought to herself, ‘This is great, even Maid Yu has the guts to chastise Chu Ningyi and he probably isn’t going to hit me now.’
However, she secretly felt gleeful at the prospect of Chu Ningyi being scolded.
Chu Ningyi put his hand down in frustration and got up to stare at the woman who had bundled herself up like a silkworm. “Idiot.” After he made his statement, he turned around and left the room.
Maid Yu watched Chu Ningyi leave and hurriedly served the water onto the bedside.
Shui Anluo slowly pulled the blanket down and kept one eye on the door. She relaxed when she saw that no one was there.
However, how dare he call her an idiot?
How was she an idiot?
Maid Yu sat next to the bed and looked at the wounds on Shui Anluo’s face and her pale complexion. She cursed Shui Anjiao in her heart. She left once Shui Anluo had taken her medication and fallen asleep.
Chu Ningyi was downstairs watching the little darling crawl all over the floor. The little one grew tired of his reptilian lifestyle after crawling for a while and insisted on standing up. However, the impatient one was still too small. He pressed his little hand on his daddy’s thigh but failed every time.
“Wah…”
The little darling could not accept the sting of defeat and immediately burst into tears to express his grief.
Chu Ningyi frowned, grabbed his collar and lifted the baby onto his thigh. He then wiped the child’s tears with a tissue.
The little darling felt aggrieved. He babbled and gurgled his complaints to his daddy but no one on earth could understand what he was saying.
Chu Ningyi wiped his son’s snot and tears before he picked him up and got to his feet. However, before he could go upstairs, the doorbell rang. Chu Ningyi frowned and lowered his head to stare at his son who was staring back at him with innocent-looking eyes.
