The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-347

After Shui Anluo was dragged back by Qiao Yaruan, she clicked her tongue. “Hey Empress Dowager Cixi¹, is your heart so unsatisfied with bringing disaster to the Qing Dynasty that you’ve decided to come into the twenty-first century to fulfill your value of life?”

“Of course, I’m highly enlightened, you should learn from me.” Qiao Yaruan clicked her tongue in response.

“Oh, please, I can spot your intention to run to Senior Brother from a hundred and eight thousand miles away.” Shui Anluo scoffed but also began to pack her things as well because she had properly digested what Qiao Yaruan had said.

What if she could make a good impression on Director Qiao this time?

“Haha, of course,” said Qiao Yaruan as she packed her things. “Hey, do you think we’ll be able to bump into Senior Brother this time? Otherwise, this trip would be a waste.”

“We should be able to, isn’t there only one rescue point in ‘A’ City? The doctors should all be there.” Shui Anluo thought as she spoke.

One hour later, Shui Anluo was sitting in the car headed towards the disaster area.

This time, there were two other doctors who had come along as well. They were all chatting and Shui Anluo was begging Qiao Yaruan to give her phone back to her.

“Chu Ningyi said that he would pick me up after work. If he can’t find me and someone else tells him that I’ve gone to the disaster area, I’m finished.” Shui Anluo tugged Qiao Yaruan’s arm as she explained seriously.

“Hey, Miss, do you not have a sense of time and place for ? Must he pick you up after work too¹? Have you ever considered how a lonely single woman like me might feel? Qiao Yaruan scoffed. She has no intention of giving Shui Anluo’s phone back to her.

Shui Anluo glared at her. ‘Being lovey-dovey?’

Qiao Yaruan placed one hand on her shoulder and grinned. “Or are you saying that you’re afraid of your Director Chu?”

“Who… Who’s scared of him?” Shui Anluo stuck her neck out as she replied.

“Since you’re not scared, call him when you arrive.”

Lan Xin, who was sitting at the front of the coach as she talked to the other two doctors, turned around to stare at the pair at the back. She said a few more things to the two doctors before she walked to the back.

“What’re you talking about?” Lan Xin asked as she took a seat next to them.

Shui Anluo shrugged. “Nothing, she took my phone and is refusing to give it back to me.”

Lan Xin chuckled. “This coach will pick up other doctors from a different hospital later. Are you two going to sit at the back the entire time?”

Shui Anluo and Qiao Yaruan looked at each other and nodded at the same time. They did not like to sit in the front.

“Senior Sister, are all the doctors from this batch coming along with us?” Qiao Yaruan asked in anticipation. Would this mean that she could sit with Senior Brother in the same vehicle?

“Of course, why do you ask?”

“Nothing, nothing.” Qiao Yaruan was excited now. Perhaps she would be able to see her senior brother soon.

“Take good care of yourselves,” Lan Xin said as she got up to return to her seat in the front.

Shui Anluo noticed the starry-eyed look on Qiao Yaruan’s face and stared at her mockingly. However, Qiao Yaruan did not seem to care.

Shui Anluo, on the other hand, felt troubled because she had no idea how to face Mo Lusu especially after what had happened yesterday.

The coach cpllected a few other doctors along the way before reaching the final hospital which was where Mo Lusu worked.

This time, Mo Lusu’s hospital had sent six doctors with Mo Lusu as the leader of the group. However, he was the last to get onto the coach. As it happens, the last available spot had been kept for him because Qiao Yaruan had refused to let anyone sit in it.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother. Over here, over here.” Qiao Yaruan cried out after Mo Lusu got onto the vehicle.

As Shui Anluo was seated at the furthest window seat at the back, the seat in front happened to block her from view. When she saw Mo Lusu walking over, she automatically shrank her body down.
