Chu Ningyi carefully carried Shui Anluo in his arms and brought her back to the room. He lay her down next to the little darling and also placed a string of pillows between the two before tucking them in with a blanket. He walked out after that.
Chu Ningyi closed the door and stared at Maid Yu. “What is it?”
“Your cousin[1] has arrived,” Maid Yu said softly.
‘Mo Lusu?’
Chu Ningyi smirked. He has certainly come at the right time, he did not need to seek him out now.
Chu Ningyi nodded. He instructed Maid Yu to take care of the two then walked outside.
The setting sun cast a glistening, refreshing aura over the beach.
Mo Lusu placed his hands behind him as he stood by the beach and stared at a flock of seagulls a distance away.
Chu Ningyu strode over and stopped next to him to stare at the seagulls as well.
“You’re just the same as ever, always on alert no matter what you do so that everything remains in your control.” Mo Lusu’s icy voice carried a sense of disdain.
Chu Ningyi did not get angry and continued to stare into the distance.
“I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong,” Chu Ningyi replied indifferently.
“Has Luoluo caught your attention because she’s out of your control and because that child is also beyond your control?” Mo Lusu said. He finally turned away and shot Chu Ningyi with a sharp gaze.
“The reason for starting out isn’t important. As long as we get the ending that we want, it’s enough.” Chu Ningyi turned away as well. “If you’re here to say these things to me, there’s no need.”
Mo Lusu clenched his fists. Chu Ningyi was five years older than him and he always seems like a child in front of Chu Ningyi.
The person that he had admired most when he was young was this cousin of his. However, everyone in the Mo family had claimed that it was the Chu family who had caused his mother’s death and asked him to stay away from the Chu family. Most of the time, he could only watch Chu Ningyi silently.
Now, however, his hatred for him was mostly because he had snatched the person he loves away.
This time, Shui Anluo woke up because she was bitten. The sharp pain in her chest shocked her from her sleep and she nearly threw the culprit who had bitten her away.
However, her sudden movement had also lifted the little darling, who had been sprawled over her chest, onto the bed.
The little darling flipped like a little turtle after being pushed away by his mommy.
Shui Anluo looked down at her son before she looked at her chest which was covered by her pajamas. It was likely that the little darling had managed to occupy the hills with great difficulty but was unable to open his mommy’s clothes. The little guy had then bit into it straightaway.
Although he had a few little teeth that served as a shop front, it still hurts when her son bit her.
The little darling waved his tiny arms several times and was unable to flip himself back up. He burst into tears.
Shui Anluo quickly picked him up. She wanted to cry too from being bitten awake like that.
Shui Anluo carried the little darling and got up. The evening lights were already lit outside.
Shui Anluo coaxed her bawling son and walked to the window. She stood at the windowsill and pointed at the sea to her son. “Look, what’s that?”
The little darling sobbed and followed his mommy’s finger to look. He then gasped, “Baba… Baba…”
“Where’s Papa?” Shui Anluo frowned. Why was it easier for him to call out to his papa than his mama? He would never voluntarily say ‘Mama’. However, after Shui Anluo replied to the little darling, she saw the two figures who had been standing there for quite some time.
“Senior Brother?” Shui Anluo softly exclaimed. What was her senior brother doing here?
Furthermore, was he standing with Chu Ningyi?
