The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-11

“What do you think?” Shui Anluo stared back at him without even flinching as she hugged the child tightly in her arms.

“Shui Anluo, you’re certainly not as cute as you used to be,” said Chu Ningyi. He looked at the child in her arms again before he turned around to leave.

Shui Anluo stared at him as he left, pursing her lips. “You’re one to talk, you haven’t changed at all.” She quietly cursed at him, “Those who do not change are on the road to extinction.”

“Shui Anluo, why didn’t you tell me about your pregnancy?” Chu Ningyi suddenly asked without turning back as he was walking toward the door.

Shui Anluo raised her head and looked at his back as she chuckled. “If I had told you, perhaps you would’ve taken me to the hospital. Don’t deny it, you know I’m telling the truth. Would you have allowed your ex-wife to become pregnant?” Shui Anluo cut him off before he could speak.

The director had been getting a divorce but the joke was that his ex-wife was with child.

Chu Ningyi’s eyes darkened and he stared at Shui Anluo as if he was looking deep into her soul.

However, Chu Ningyi did not reply in the end as he turned around to leave the place.

So, was he silently admitting to it?

Shui Anluo pursed her lips as she carefully put her child down.

Chu Ningyi did not leave the apartment after stepping out of the room. Instead, he went into the study. His personnel had reported everything about Shui Anluo over the past year to him. She had never appeared before him since their divorce. He also believes that someone had intentionally planned for him to receive that photograph.

Chu Ningyi was in the middle of his thoughts when the mobile phone on his desk suddenly rang. He lowered his head to look at it and gently curled his lips when he saw the name on the screen. He then picked up the phone, “Uncle Shui, how did you find the time to call me today?”

“I heard that you’ve taken Anluo back?” The man on the other end spoke in a straightforward manner and did not beat around the bush. Instead, his words carried a sense of oppression.

“Isn’t she the mother of my child? Besides, Luoluo isn’t related to you in any way and I still have the newspaper announcement from a year ago. What do you think, uncle?” Chu Ningyi chuckled but the inner disdain was clear to both ends.

The person on the other end paused before he continued, “She hit Anjiao.”

“Oh, are you here to send punitive forces today? Did the eldest Miss Shui ever mention why Luoluo hit her?” Chu Ningyi raised his brow but happened to notice Shui Anluo who was standing at the door. He could not help but knit his brows and even turned his mobile phone in a different direction.

Shui Anluo who had been standing there overheard this. Her father who had once loved her was now questioning her because of his daughter.

“Are you trying to pick a fight with me?”

“Whatever do you mean, uncle? Luoluo is the mother of my child. What’s wrong with me bringing her back?” Chu Ningyi asked matter-of-factly.

“What about you coming out of the closet? You know very well that Anjiao is Fengyang’s fianceé.”

“You really shouldn’t be asking me about this. Shouldn’t you talk to Fengyang instead?” replied Chu Ningyi. He then motioned his hand for Shui Anluo to come in and spoke again, “If there’s nothing else, uncle, I’m hanging up.”

“Chu Ningyi…”

“Furthermore uncle, as long as I, Chu Ningyi am around… If you ever have the audacity to touch Shui Anluo… Well, you can try,” threatened Chu Ningyi before he immediately hung up.

‘As long as I, Chu Ningyi am around… If you ever have the audacity to touch Shui Anluo… Well, you can try.’

Those powerful and resonating words caused Shui Anluo to tremble. However, she quickly calmed herself down. Instead of trusting Chu Ningyi, why not trust An Fengyang instead? That would be a more realistic option.
