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

Shui Anluo ran back to campus. Qiao Yaruan was already asleep but it was still term break so the dorm matron did not reprimand Shui Anluo for coming back so late. Instead, she allowed her to go upstairs.

The earth-shattering knocks woke Qiao Yaruan up.

“Coming, who is it?” Qiao Yaruan asked irritably. They lived in a shared dorm room of four and there were some instances when someone would take the night train and come back in the middle of the night. Therefore, she did not find it strange for someone to knock on the door at this hour.

Qiao Yaruan had only just opened the door when Shui Anluo barged right in. Her massive sniffles clearly described what she had previously endured.

Qiao Yaruan was shaken. She quickly closed the door and turned on the light. “What’s all this about?”

“I’m moving out of his house.” Shui Anluo was not crying now probably because she had already cried herself out. Her voice was a little hoarse.

“What about the little darling?” Qiao Yaruan looked at Shui Anluo who was sitting on the side of the bed and walked over to pour some water for her. She pulled out a stool and sat in front of her.

Their dormitory was not furnished with the usual bunk beds. All four beds were single beds with a large study table in the middle and four stools all around.

“I still have that divorce agreement signed by him. The little darling is under my custody and only mine. Even if he does file a lawsuit, I’m not afraid,” Shui Anluo replied angrily.

“Uh…” Qiao Yaruan scratched her face. “What did Director Chu do? How had he provoked you into this state?” Qiao Yaruan asked and accepted her now empty cup.

Shui Anluo took a few breaths then rattled on and explained everything that had happened.

Qiao Yaruan was mystified as she listened to the story. She only spoke after Shui Anluo had finished. “So you’re saying that Chu Ningyi knew that Lin Qianchen had instigated Shui Anjiao to kidnap you but there was no proof. He also knew that Lin Qianchen had hired an underground taxi driver today so when she had caused Yuan Jiayi to have an allergic reaction, he abandoned you on purpose so his plan could be placed into action and thoroughly bring Lin Qianchen to justice?”

Shui Anluo got up and poured some water for herself. “That’s pretty much it,” She replied in a hoarse voice.

“Then how was Lin Qianchen so certain that he would definitely abandon you?” Qiao Yaruan turned to look at her as she asked.

“Lin Qianchen is his best friend, of course she’ll understand him very well.” The more Shui Anluo thought about it, the angrier she felt. She was going to move out tomorrow.

“Is Director Chu’s EQ a negative integer?” Qiao Yaruan sighed. He was the same way the last time, he had secretly done everything for Shui Anluo yet did not say a thing about it. In the end, someone else had taken credit for his hard work. This time, he had ended up committing an evil deed out of kindness.

“A negative integer? This negative integer is exploding through the fence, alright? Do you know how much his ‘I did this for your own good, I did nothing wrong’ look on his face deserves a good punch?” Shui Anluo angrily ranted.

“It’s quite cute.”

“What did you say?”

“Nothing, nothing.” Qiao Yaruan quickly covered it up. “Are you planning to move back to campus and will the little darling be on the campus with you? What about regular hours?”

“I don’t know yet, I’ll think about it when the time comes. Regardless, I’m not going back,” Shui Anluo replied and slammed her cup on the table.

Qiao Yaruan leaned back a little. Director Chu, who has a high IQ but a low EQ, had ways to get things done once and for all but he had also frustrated his wife into leaving him, alright?

“Fine, have you eaten?” Qiao Yaruan diverted her attention and asked about something that she was more concerned over.

Shui Anluo rubbed her tummy and shook her head. Chu Ningyi had flung her dinner away and had tormented her the entire night. She has not eaten a thing.
