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

Chu Ningyi frowned as he looked outside. He was just about to head over when the phone in his pocket rang.

Chu Ningyi picked up the phone and answered the call without looking at the screen. He began to walk outside but before he could take one step forward, he knitted his brows. “Are you sure that it’s Soaring Distance Technologies?”

Chu Ningyi spoke as he quickly left the hospital through a side door.

Shui Anluo and Qiao Yaruan ran to the doorway. They saw the steady flow of patients entering the hospital with the sound of groaning being heard everywhere. Shui Anluo looked up, from a visual assessment, they were all burn victims but how were the burns so widespread?

“What’re you standing around there for? Save them!” A director-ranked doctor loudly ordered.

Qiao Yaruan and Shui Anluo did not have time to think and quickly plunged into the rescue.

However, when Shui Anluo rushed over and saw another patient who had been brought down from the ambulance, she froze. A sense of foreboding washed over her heart.

“Uncle Liu,” Shui Anluo softly murmured.

The groaning man’s right thigh had been injured from an explosion. The wound was so hideous that it looked horrific.

“Luoluo…” The man whom she had addressed as Uncle Liu was the Vice Director of Soaring Distance Technologies. He was also Shui Moyun’s most competent right-hand man. “An explosion… An explosion in the company…” Uncle Liu only had enough time to say these words when he was carried inside.

Shui Anluo stood in the rain and watched as the stream of people were brought inside. There were several familiar faces so the victims from the explosion were mostly employees who had worked overtime at Soaring Distance Technologies.

Shui Anluo’s arms slowly tensed up beside her. The sound of rain rang loudly in her ears but it also grew further and further away from her world.

‘An explosion at Soaring Distance Technologies’, these were the only words that filled her mind.

“Luoluo, what’re you doing?” Qiao Yaruan, who was heading inside, turned around and stared at Shui Anluo who was standing in the rain. She could not help but call out loudly to her.

Shui Anluo trembled. She did not have time to think and quickly followed the rest inside.

The severe cases had been sent to the operating room while those with minor injuries had their wounds dressed by the nurses outside. As assistants, Shui Anluo and Qiao Yaruan were called into the operating room but the number of on-call doctors was not enough at this time and the contacted doctors have not arrived yet.

Shui Anluo tried her best to manage her emotions and refused to allow herself to get distracted as she stood next to the doctor and assisted with her surgery.

Qiao Yaruan handed the scalpel over to the head surgeon then glanced worriedly over at Shui Anluo who was standing behind the lead surgeon. She was tasked with wiping her sweat and adjusting the oxygen hose. Her tensed body clearly indicated her uneasy state.

“Increase oxygen levels,” The lead surgeon instructed in a serious voice.

Shui Anluo quickly walked over. She tried her best to steady her hand as she slowly increased the oxygen output.

At the scene of the explosion.

The police have now sealed off all nearby roads. Uncle Chu was waiting for Chu Ningyi when he arrived.

Chu Ningyi walked over and Uncle Chu immediately greeted him. “The explosion had happened half an hour ago and the media can’t be contained. We haven’t found the reason behind the explosion but I had found this at the company’s entrance,” Uncle Chu said and handed a jade bracelet to Chu Ningyi.

Chu Ningyi took the bracelet and examined it. He gently stroked the inside of the bracelet to find the word ‘Luo’ carved into it. “Shui Anjiao?” Chu Ningyi muttered.

There was nothing special about this bracelet but he remembered it because Shui Anjiao had once shown off her birthday present to Shui Anluo. This present happened to be a bracelet that Shui Moyun had once gifted to Shui Anluo for her birthday.
