The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-340

Chu Ningyi paused again and turned around to stare at Shui Anluo who was looking up at him. Her eyes were filled with an ice-cold expression.

“Shui Anluo, do you believe in my confession or what he had said?” Chu Ningyi questioned slowly. However, every word was soaked in the iciness of mistrust as they beat against her ears one by one.

Shui Anluo heard the icy tone in his voice and stared at the cold ridicule in his eyes. However, she faced him head-on. “She caused had her daughter’s death, that’s a fact!” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth and retaliated. That was why she could not gamble her son away for Chu Ningyi’s sake. “Isn’t everything she’s doing now for the sake of atonement?” Shui Anluo asked as she pointed with one hand at the television.

“Shui Anluo!” Chu Ningyi roared angrily. Clearly, Shui Anluo had touched on his limit.

“What, have I hit it on the nail?” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth.

Chu Ningyi felt the little darling tremble and quickly controlled the fiery rage around him. “Shui Anluo, remember this, no one has the right to criticize or approve another person’s past. Your life is only to ensure that your conscience is clear and not to see whether others have a clear conscience or not,” Chu Ningyi icily finished before he carried the little darling upstairs once again.

“Have you ever considered that since she would even force her own daughter to die, what am I or the little darling to her?” Shui Anluo suddenly cried out behind him. However, this time, there was fear in her voice.

A peculiar light flashed across Chu Ningyi’s eyes and he looked down at the little darling who was blinking his large eyes at him.

What did she mean?

“Chu Ningyi, no matter what you do, do you still have no idea what I’m afraid of?” Shui Anluo screamed. She threw the remote control in her hand away and ran out.

Chu Ningyi heard the door slam and the little darling burst into tears from shock. However, this was nothing compared to the echoes of Shui Anluo’s words in his mind.

‘Chu Ningyi, no matter what you do, do you still have no idea what I’m afraid of?’

‘Do you still have no idea what I’m afraid of?’

Chu Ningyi frowned at the closed door and tightened his embrace around the little darling. Was he that ignorant of Shui Anluo’s fears?

‘It’s not that she had believed Mo Lusu’s words but she had been afraid of something else?’

She had also said that since Qiao Huihe would even force her own daughter to die, what was she or the little darling to her?

Chu Ningyi’s grip gradually tightened. ‘Was she afraid that his grandmother would use the same methods against her and the little darling?’

Chu Ningyi cursed out loud. He had been so focused on Mo Lusu because of his jealousy that he had missed the terror and fear in her voice. He had only constantly insisted that she does not believe him and even reproached her acknowledgment toward his grandmother.

The little darling stopped crying. He blinked his teary eyes as he pointed outside. “Ma, ma, mama…” The little fellow sounded very anxious but this time, it was easy to tell that he was calling for his mother.

It was raining outside and his mommy had just gone out. The little darling was worried.

Chu Ningyi cursed again. He then went upstairs to grab some clothes and wrapped the little darling properly before carrying him back downstairs.

It was raining so heavily and that woman had actually run out. Was she not afraid that something might happen?

After Shui Anluo ran out, she did not go outside. Instead, she ran to the stairwell and sat on the steps to wallow in her grief.

Shui Anluo’s grief was not without reason. He always said that he was sincere in his feelings for her but each time she put in some effort and stopped wanting to leave, he would always assert his own opinions against her own.

Shui Anluo heard the sound of a door opening then the sound of the elevator door opening. She got up immediately but when she ran outside, the elevator had already descended.
