The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-257

Miraculously, Chu Ningyi’s fist had remained suspended in mid-air and did not land its blow.

An Fengyang promptly felt a pang in his heart. He had tried to convince Chu Ningyi for so long yet it was nothing compared to Shui Anluo who had only called his name once.

Honestly, public morals were degenerating with each passing day!

Chu Ningyi crippled one more man before he turned around and walked towards Shui Anluo. He then bent down and scooped her into his arms.

Shui Anluo reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck. She could sense an innate fury from his body. This rage was for her, Shui Anluo’s sake.

This knowledge made her feel — regardless of how much pain she was in, it was inconsequential.

He actually cares about her.

It does not matter if that was true or not but at this moment, she had fallen for him.

She had fallen for him again.

Chu Ningyi carried Shui Anluo out. Just as he arrived at the doorway, the police appeared.

Chu Ningyi did not say a word and simply carried her away, passing the policemen by.

Feng Feng dragged an enraged Qiao Yaruan away as well, leaving An Fengyang to deal with the scene on his own.

An Fengyang looked at the drenched policemen and kindly gave them an explanation. They had acted out of self-defense during their rescue mission and as for why the other group has been reduced to this state, this was the result of their self-defense.

Black lines formed on the policemen’s face, could they have crippled all these people only out of self-defense?

However, out of the four tycoons of ‘A’ City, three of them had arrived all at once. The policemen did not have the courage to provoke a single one of them so, naturally, they happily considered the case as assault out of self-defense.

Chu Ningyi carried Shui Anluo into the car and instructed the driver to head for the nearest hospital. He looked down to check on the wounds on her body but, luckily, there were no obvious scars on her body aside from the dirt. However, when Chu Ningyi saw the blue-black streak on Shui Anluo’s waist, the vicious currents on his face increased.

“Who kicked you?”

If it was that group of men, he would really regret that he had only crippled them.

Shui Anluo heard his ice-cold voice but understood that it comes from a place of concern. She looked down and the sight of the bruise thoroughly shocked her.

When Shui Anjiao had kicked her, she had almost fainted from the pain. Now that she had finally taken a look at it, she understood how vicious that kick had been. The purple hue was nearly a black bruise that hung clearly on her waist.

Allowing Qiao Yaruan to throw a few punches at Shui Anjiao earlier on had been too easy of a punishment for her.

Shui Anluo leaned on Chu Ningyi and endured the agony which flared up in her body from time to time. “Could we not have Shui Anjiao locked up for now?” Shui Anluo asked through gritted teeth.

Chu Ningyi lowered his head. He then wiped her small face with a wet tissue as he replied, “What, are you begging for mercy for her?”

“No way… Ugh…” Shui Anluo had put too much force into her pooh-pooh and aggravated her wounds. “I’d be sick if I beg for mercy for her. I should be allowed to pay her back for this kick,” Shui Anluo replied through gritted teeth. She was not Mother Mary. She wants to pay Shui Anjiao back ten times over for beating her up.

Chu Ningyi gazed upon the upset girl in his arms and felt satisfied. This was the woman he, Chu Ningyi, had fallen for.

“We’ll talk about your revenge when you’re better.” It would only take one word from him to release Shui Anjiao. Once Shui Anluo finished beating her up, he has many ways of sending Shui Anjiao back to prison.

Shui Anluo smiled and nodded but was unable to hold back a gasp. This feeling was utterly unbearable!

“Sleep, we’ll reach the hospital soon,” Chu Ningyi said as his heart ached. He did not care that the mud on her body had now stained his body as well.
