The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting
chapter-495

“You can ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’ all you want, no more eating,” Shui Anluo said as she wiped his little hands clean and kissed them.

The little darling scoffed and continued to stretch his little paws out to grab the apple. He has not had enough yet.

Shui Anluo reached out and placed the little bowl on the table. The little darling’s spirits immediately lit up as he crawled over, reaching his little paws for it. However, his mommy held his little body back and he could not reach it.

“Ah…”

“Say ‘Mommy’…” Shui Anluo lured him.

The little darling’s large eyes darted everywhere. His little body threw itself into his mommy’s arms as he said, “Mama, Mama…”

“Haha, I’m not giving it to you even if you’ve called me ‘Mama’.” Shui Anluo lowered her head and planted a kiss on his fair little face.

The little darling’s entire face filled with black lines. He stared at his mommy as if his life was hopeless. How could he have such a hilariously idiotic woman for a mother?

Chu Ningyi emerged to find the mother and son hugging each other. However, just as he sat down, the little darling changed sides and dashed into his daddy’s arms.

Chu Ningyi raised his brow and stared at Shui Anluo. “Did you bully him again?”

The little darling nodded as Shui Anluo shook her head.

Uncle Chu was standing watch outside the door. When he saw Feng Feng and Qiao Yaruan, he knocked on the door and said, “Young Master, the Fourth Master and Miss Qiao have arrived.”

Chu Ningyi nodded. “Tell them that she isn’t awake yet and ask them to come again tomorrow.”

“Hey, it’s the Empress Dowager,” Shui Anluo quickly said but Chu Ningyi held her down in a lying position.

Chu Ningyi murmured into her ear, “Don’t complicate matters, her usefulness has ended.”

Shui Anluo sulkily turned her head to another side. “Cold-blooded man.”

“What did you say?” Chu Ningyi frowned.

“I’m not awake yet so I can’t talk, you’ve heard it wrong.” Shui Anluo scoffed. She could never understand Chu Ningyi’s unreasonable attitude.

Although his reasons were well intended, she did not approve of his methods because she knew that Qiao Yaruan would never betray her.

Chu Ningyi pulled the blanket up and covered her with it. He did not reply.

Feng Feng and Qiao Yaruan were blocked by Uncle Chu when they arrived at the doorway. “Fourth Master, Miss Qiao, the Young Madam is still unconscious. You can’t go in.”

“That bad?” Qiao Yaruan remarked worriedly.

Uncle Chu nodded and did not say a word.

Qiao Yaruan looked up and peered inside with a face full of concern.

“Let’s go. He already told us that we can’t see her.” Feng Feng smiled icily.

“How is it any of your business? Can’t I wait outside even if I can’t see her now?” Qiao Yaruan resented him then walked past him to sit on a stool.

Feng Feng turned around and looked at the woman who had just sat down. He placed his hands in his pockets and walked over.

“Little Soft Tooth, I’ve noticed that you…”

“Who’re you calling Little Soft Tooth?” Qiao Yaruan growled angrily.

Feng Feng sneered. “Who do you think?”

Qiao Yaruan looked at him from top to bottom before she finally said mockingly, “I think you’re the one who’s soft from top to bottom.” She had emphasized the word ‘soft’.

Feng Feng narrowed his eyes and slammed his hands on the back of her stool to envelop her in his arms. “What’re you implying? Are you saying that you want to try and see if I’m soft?”

The overtly close proximity caused Qiao Yaruan to feel suffocated. She looked up at the man who was inches away from her and retorted, “So what? No matter how I look at it, you won’t be able to deliver.”

Uncle Chu automatically turned his eyes away. He simply did not want to listen to the explosive conversation between the two.
