Chapter 272: Where Are Your Principles?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Ningyi noticed Shui Anluo knocking against the door from the moment he stepped out of the study. Instead of knocking on tables, she was now knocking on doors. What on earth was wrong with this girl?1

Chu Ningyi walked over. Before Shui Anluo could collide against the door again, he stretched his arm out and placed them on the door, causing her head to collide on his palm instead.

“Isn’t your brain dead enough?” Chu Ningyi’s sexy voice was tinged with mirth.

“Argh…” Shui Anluo cried out softly as she stumbled backward.

Chu Ningyi continued to hold his hand against the door and observed the retreating Shui Anluo.

Shui Anluo’s large eyes darted around before she finally gestured at the little darling with her head. “H-he’s fallen asleep.”

‘You’re insane, Shui Anluo, what on earth are you trying to say?’

Shui Anluo lowered her head and fiercely mumbled curses at herself.

Chu Ningyi raised his brow and slowly inched toward her, maintaining a close distance with her again. “So?” He asked in a husky yet seductive voice.

The way he said it was really quite seductive.

They were husband and wife who have had a child. Since she had pointed out that the child was asleep, what was next?

“N-nothing,” Shui Anluo replied with a fierce blush on her face. She then threaded her way through his arm and escaped.

“Shui Anluo, I’ll only give you one chance. There won’t be another one in the future.” Chu Ningyi suddenly declared as he turned back to look at Shui Anluo who was heading downstairs.

Although he would most definitely help her out, he stubbornly wanted her to ask him personally.

Shui Anluo suddenly stopped and nearly tripped down the stairs. She turned back to look at Chu Ningyi who was staring calmly at her.

He looked like a hunter who was brimming with absolute confidence. Even if he did not make his move, he knew that his prey would serve herself up to him on her own.

This prey was undoubtedly her.

Shui Anluo pursed her lips and slowly walked back. She then drooped her head like a guilty child. “I was wrong.”

Chu Ningyi raised his brows and continued to lean against the door to stare at her.

“I shouldn’t have shown off.” Shui Anluo analyzed herself in a profound manner. “Even though it was rather enjoyable.”

“Shui Anluo!” Chu Ningyi exclaimed coldly.

“I said I was wrong, isn’t that enough?” Shui Anluo shot back as she looked up at him. “But you never told me that you lost so much money because of Soaring Distance Technologies.” That was why she had wanted to stand up for Chu Ningyi but had unexpectedly overlooked her own strengths.

Chu Ningyi leaned against the door and crossed his arms as he stared at the woman in front of him. “I may have lost money but I, Chu Ningyi, will never make a loss in business.”

Shui Anluo stared at him curiously. “But Soaring Distance Technologies…” The reality of it all was just as He Xiaoran had said. Chu Ningyi was losing money by trying to rebuild a dying company.

Chu Ningyi got up and approached her. He then placed his hands on her shoulders and wrapped her in his arms from the back. “So, are you now asking for my help?”

It was not an intimate hug or a cordial placement around the shoulders. Instead, his elbows were pressed against her shoulders and both his arms were crossed over, holding her from behind. It was the best protective stance.

Maid Yu grinned as she stooped over the bottom of the stairs to take a picture of the two. No matter how she looked at it, they looked like a loving pair.

Shui Anluo pouted her lips as she looked up at Chu Ningyi. She seemed to be formulating how she could ask him for help.

“Please, I beg you!”

Shui Anluo pouted her lips and acted cutely.

“Where’s your integrity?” Chu Ningyi clicked his tongue.

Black lines formed on Shui Anluo’s body. ‘Damn it, I really want to kick him but I don’t have the guts.’

“Then what do you want?” Shui Anluo asked through gritted teeth.

Chu Ningyi raised his brow and looked down at her pouty lips. He was in a much better mood now. “Figure it out,” he replied coolly.
