Chapter 486: Miss Shui Is Truly Fair And Considerate

“I’m saying this for Uncle Yuan’s ears. You, Yuan Jiayi…”

“Old Third.” Chu Ningyi frowned and sharply cut him off. “It’s the anniversary of Uncle Yuan’s death today, don’t bring up the past.”

Shui Anluo slowly lifted her head and stared right at Chu Ningyi. She smiled without emotion.

Chu Ningyi reached out and held her hand that was carrying their son. He then stroked her head with his other hand. Sometimes, he did not know if such a fair and considerate Shui Anluo was a good thing or not.

Yuan Jiayi initially felt happy that Chu Ningyi had stood up for her but she did not expect to see the pair stare lovingly at each other when she turned around. Yuan Jiayi clenched her fists then lowered her eyelids to conceal the viciousness in her gaze.

An Fengyang threw his hands and finally looked away. It was best that he kept quiet.

Wen Xin squeezed her husband’s hand and smiled at him.

Yuan Jiayi took a deep breath. She swept her gaze across everyone and finally focused on Chu Ningyi. “Ningyi, do you think that I’m…”

“I’ve told you, don’t bring up the past. If you are ever in trouble, Old Third and I will help you.” Chu Ningyi interrupted her as he took the little darling back.

The little darling had been in a bad mood ever since Yuan Jiayi arrived. He immediately leaned into his daddy’s arms after his daddy picked him up. He pursed his little lips, he hates this bad woman so much.

Chu Ningyi’s words caused Yuan Jiayi to choke and she did not speak for nearly half a day.

An Fengyang checked the time and finally frowned. “It’s getting late, I’m taking Wen Xin home.”

Chu Ningyi nodded. An Fengyang then coolly took Wen Xin downhill.

Shui Anluo watched and could not help but think that her Beijing’s Biggest Bitch must really hate Yuan Jiayi. That was the only reason why he had shown such a cold exterior.

After An Fengyang left, the little darling stretched his tiny fingers and pointed downhill too. He wanted to go down and did not want to stay here any longer. Besides, he missed his beloved steed.

“Ningyi, you guys should leave first. I want to stay with my parents for a while.” Yuan Jiayi said softly.

“Miss Yuan, it would be difficult to get a taxi if we leave too late,” the housekeeper quickly said.

‘Get a taxi?’

Chu Ningyi looked at Yuan Jiayi’s legs and frowned. “I’ll ask Uncle Chu to send you home.”

“No need, I don’t want anyone to criticize me,” Yuan Jiayi said and lowered her head in grief.

Shui Anluo held the little darling’s hand and soothed his fussy mood. She turned around when she heard Yuan Jiayi’s statement. “Miss Yuan’s father is Ningyi’s benefactor. It’s expected of him to help you to repay his kindness. Who would say anything about that?”

Shui Anluo’s voice was indifferent but she had placed everything that Chu Ningyi had done for Yuan Jiayi in the name of gratitude.

Yuan Jiayi was not a fool, she could understand the implications in Shui Anluo’s words. She looked up at her. “It’s good that you see it that way, Miss Shui, I was afraid that you might misunderstand. After all, Ningyi was by my side when you were in trouble in the past.”

The atmosphere abruptly turned very awkward after Yuan Jiayi spoke.

Chu Ningyi frowned. Naturally, he remembered what had happened. In the past, he always felt that he was in the wrong but now that Yuan Jiayi had brought it up, he really felt uncomfortable.

Shui Anluo smirked. “Since it was Miss Yuan’s final catwalk and Ningyi had arranged everything for me, one should deal with important matters first. I understand him.”

“You’re certainly fair and considerate, Miss Shui,” Yuan Jiayi smiled.
