The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-148

“It’s Bai Yehan, I think you know you that is,” said An Fengyang as he walked out of the study. “I’ve spoken to Second Bai, he’ll come to see you tomorrow.”

Shui Anluo had heard of Bai Yehan. He had moved to ‘A’ city three years ago and only accepted six court cases during these three years. However, no one else had dared to accept these cases and he had won each one beautifully.

Bai Yehan was the one helping her to file the lawsuit?

“Beautiful Brother, I can’t afford him,” sighed Shui Anluo.

“It’s fine. If he dares to ask for a single cent, I’ll sever all ties with him.” An Fengyang smiled. At this moment, his fiancée was asleep so he lowered his voice.

Shui Anluo smiled until her eyes turned red.

It was great that she could still rely on her beautiful brother at a time like this.

“Brother, thank you, truly.” Shui Anluo took a deep breath and tried her best to make her voice sound a little more natural.

The tone in the word ‘brother’ caused An Fengyang’s heart to ache.

“Sister, Yuan Jiayi is doing her last runway show so Eldest Chu had to go and watch it. After all, he had been together with her before. When Eldest Chu returns, there should be no issues between the two of you.” An Fengyang offered an explanation in Chu Ningyi’s stead.

“So he’s gone off to be with Yuan Jiayi.” Shui Anluo had spoken in a leisurely manner but she suddenly felt a pang in her heart.

Yuan Jiayi, an International supermodel, had broken up amicably with Chu Ningyi five years ago. However, no one had known the specifics behind the reason for the breakup.

Was he making up with Yuan Jiayi now?

An Fengyang was shaken. After a long pause, he softly cried out. “No, Beautiful Sister, Jiayi is…”

“Brother, I’m tired, I want to sleep now and we still don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow. You should get an early night too.” Shui Anluo spoke in a deliberately leisurely tone. She then ended the call immediately and turned her phone off before throwing it onto the table. She was really stupid. Why was she was unreasonably hoping for him to call home? How could he possibly think of her current situation when he has a beautiful woman in his arms?

After the call ended, An Fengyang felt that something was not quite right the more he thought about it. Could he have unintentionally done something wrong out of kindness?

When Chu Ningyi received An Fengyang’s call, he was keeping Yuan Jiayi company, gazing at the sea.

The sea breeze brushed across his face but could not wipe the crease from his brow.

“How’re things? Have you received the pictures?” Chu Ningyi asked before An Fengyang could speak.

“It’s not about that, did my beautiful sister have no idea that you’ve been spending time with Yuan Jiayi?” An Fengyang did not answer Chu Ningyi’s question and asked his own instead.

Chu Ningyi’s frown deepened. “I was rushing so I didn’t tell her.” Besides, he felt that some things did not need to be said.

An Fengyang looked up and stared at the ceiling. These two… One was making wild guesses while the other was doing things in secret. How was that any fun?

“Then let me tell you now. You’d left to spend time with your ex-girlfriend when my beautiful sister needed you the most. Eldest Chu, oh Eldest Chu, don’t you think that you’re being dense?”

“What did you say?” Chu Ningyi spat coldly.

“Nothing, you can continue to keep your ex-girlfriend company. We’re pretty much done with things over here.” An Fengyang once again confirmed that Chu Ningyi was an idiot with a full IQ and zero EQ as he ended the call abruptly.

Chu Ningyi looked down and stared at the phone in his hand. Does Third An want a beating?

“Ningyi, do you have to go back and resolve some matters?” Yuan Jiayi asked unhappily.

Chu Ningyi placed his phone on the table before he looked up to gaze at the great sea.

‘You’d left to spend time with your ex-girlfriend when my beautiful sister needed you the most.’

‘Why did those words sound so harsh?’

‘Was everything that I’ve done to settle matters for her less meaningful than me being with her?’ ¹

‘The most important thing was, Shui Anluo herself had never said anything about needing me!’
