His warm breath beat against her ear. Shui Anluo shivered again, wanting to distance herself from him.
“That…”
Before Shui Anluo could finish her sentence, someone knocked on the car window.
Chu Ningyi’s smiling face slowly changed. He turned around and wound the car window down. The person standing outside was none other than Lan Xin.
“Ningyi, Teacher has asked you two to go back inside. Regardless, it’s her seventieth birthday celebration, she would be sad if you left.” Lan Xin said in mild awkwardness.
“Are you sure that she meant us and not only me?” Chu Ningyi’s expression remained unhappy.
Lan Xin chuckled, “Ningyi, it’s not like you don’t know her temper. How could she actually turn little Junior Sister away? Besides, she must really want to see your son. If you leave now, she’ll be disappointed.”
Chu Ningyi turned around and looked at Shui Anluo before he softly asked her opinion, “Do you still want to go in?”
Shui Anluo blinked, momentarily unable to accept this version of Chu Ningyi.
“Forget it, Mo Lusu is there anyway, let’s not go in anymore.”Chu Ningyi did not wait for Shui Anluo to respond and made the decision on his own.
‘Hello?’
‘Wasn’t he asking me?’
“Ah pu…” The little darling blinked as well.
Both mother and son had the same look on their faces. The older one was clearly asking if Director Chu was playing with her. How was Senior Brother related to this?
The younger one was clearly saying that whatever his mommy did, he would follow!
“What do you think, little Junior Sister?” Lan Xin smiled at Shui Anluo.
Shui Anluo blinked.
“She’s asking you?” Chu Ningyi brushed the stray hair off her forehead and asked gently.
The little darling turned his gaze and stared at his mommy like his daddy. “Ah, ah, ah…” The little fellow was too small and did not know how to talk yet so he could only babble and gurgle in place of what he wished to say.
Shui Anluo placed her hand on the little darling’s forehead. ‘You talk too much.’
“Ya…” The little darling reached out and pulled his mommy’s hand away. He could not see anything.
Chu Ningyi chuckled and reached out to save the babbling little darling. He then turned back to look at Lan Xin. “We’ll go in in a short while, you head back first.”
“Then I’ll go back in. Don’t make me eat my words in front of my teacher or she’ll strangle me,” Lan Xin said jokingly. She then turned around and entered the hall.
“Senior Sister is a pretty nice person,” Shui Anluo said as she watched Lan Xin walk back in.
Chu Ningyi did not reply but pulled out his phone which had alerted him to a text message. Chu Ningyi opened it to find three pictures inside. One was Lan Xin’s boarding pass, the other was a message from her airliner, and the last one was a screenshot of her leaving the airport this morning.
“What is it? So secretive,” Shui Anluo scoffed. If he does not want to let her see, she would let it go. She did not want to see it anyway.
“Nothing, let’s go inside,” Chu Ningyi said and opened the door again.
That also meant that yesterday’s incident was only a coincidence. He had been overthinking.
Shui Anluo was curious. However, she was even more curious about why her senior brother was here so she did not refuse.
After Shui Anluo had gotten down from the car, Chu Ningyi stopped again. He turned around and stared irritably at Shui Anluo, “Hey, are you that eager to go in just because Mo Lusu is there?”
Shui Anluo crossed her arms and stared at him. This version of Chu Ningyi really made her speechless.
“Hey Director Chu, who’s possessed you? Isn’t the period of possession a little too long?” Shui Anluo sneered.
