The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-18

‘My son is more important!’

Was he, Chu Ningyi, nothing compared to a little baby?

“Shui Anluo, you’re getting better and better at aggravating me,” said Chu Ningyi. He immediately approached her and grabbed her wrist before dragging her back in, slamming the front door shut along the way.

Shui Anluo and the little darling were looking at the man who was centimeters away from them with the same expression.

That was a slam. That was clearly a slam.

“D-Director Chu, calm down.” Shui Anluo gulped as her eyes tried to avoid his dark and severe gaze.

“Babble…” The little darling was feeling uncomfortable from the pressure. He waved his little fist and hit Chu Ningyi.

The teeny tiny hand that drummed against him could not inflict any kind of sensation.

However, this action…

Shui Anluo stared in horror at Chu Ningyi who had just been hit. It was likely that this was the first time Director Chu had ever been slapped in the ear and by his own son too.

At that moment, the surrounding atmosphere started to ease up a bit and Shui Anluo smiled awkwardly. She reached out to pull her son’s little hand back and held it in her hand. “Chu… Director Chu, he’s your biological son.”

She was worried that if Chu Ningyi were to swing his hand toward them, her little son’s tiny head would be finished.

“Heh, do you admit it now?” Chu Ningyi laughed icily as he stared calmly at Shui Anluo.

‘Shui Anluo, hehe, how could you have avoided that confession now? If you had not admitted it, he would have slapped this baby to death in one blow.’

“Make dinner,” Chu Ningyi said with a dark look on his face.

The man looming above Shui Anluo left and she suddenly felt as if she could breathe properly again.

However, Shui Anluo furrowed her brows when she thought about dinner. She certainly did not want to cook anything for him.

Although, for the sake of her son’s life… Shui Anluo reluctantly put her son back in his cot so he could continue playing with his toy.

After the little darling settled back into his cot, his large eyes began to look everywhere. His tiny hands grabbed the railing of the cot as he struggled to stand. Unfortunately, his strength was limited and he was unable to stand up.

Chu Ningyi stared loftily down at the struggling little thing before he touched his own face. Somehow, this little one had actually known to hit him in the face.

“Babble…” The little darling blew a bubble and blinked his large adorable eyes at Chu Ningyi.

Chu Ningyi began measuring the baby up as well. This little kid was similar to how he had been when he was young by nine out of ten points. However, he did not think that he had flailed about so much when he was young at all.

“Ah…” The little darling blew another bubble and reached his little, fleshy hands toward Chu Ningyi, asking to be carried.

Unfortunately, the newly-minted biological father did not know what this gesture meant and only stared at him with furrowed brows. ¹ He seemed to be thinking about how this child was so tiny that he could not even reach the length of his arm.

“Waaaaaaa!!! ² ”

The little darling had never been ignored like that. When he saw that the man had refused to carry him, he burst into tears and frightened Shui Anluo so much that she ran out from the kitchen.

” What have you done? ³ ” Shui Anluo angrily scooped up her son and glared at Chu Ningyi guardedly.

The look in Shui Anluo’s eyes aggravated Chu Ningyi. He got the feeling that she would fight him if he dared to touch her son again.

In her subconscious mind, he would always have some bad intentions toward the child.

“Shui Anluo, if I don’t get my food in one hour’s time, I’ll throw him out,” Chu Ningyi icily replied before he looked at the crying little baby with mild dislike. He felt that this little thing was a little too well-versed in crying.

Shui Anluo hugged her son and watched Chu Ningyi head into the study before she heaved a sigh of relief. However, one thing was clear – Chu Ningyi had turned her into his maid!
