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

Qiao Yaruan, who had just left the dormitory, lost her balance and nearly fell headfirst to the ground when she heard Chu Ningyi’s question. She only fully realized what she had heard after she supported herself against a wall and steadied herself.

‘Oh my god…’

She was absolutely certain that no one has ever seen such a cute side of Director Chu. His small, aggrieved voice was indeed a critical weapon that could make anyone forgive him in an instant.

It was just unfortunate that she was not the person who needs to forgive him.

“Director Chu? Can you wait a moment? Let me get back to my dormitory and sit on the bed first before we continue our talk, alright?” She was afraid that she might end up tripping onto the ground if she heard any more terrifying words.

Chu Ningyi frowned but did not say anything.

After Qiao Yaruan returned to the dormitory, she sat on the bed steadily and asked, “Director Chu, are you really in love with Xiao Luozi?”

When Chu Ningyi heard Qiao Yaruan’s question, he lowered his head again. Below him, traffic was still quite congested. Since he was very high up, he could not hear the hustle and bustle from the street.

‘Am I really in love with Shui Anluo?’

All he knew was that he would not have put so much effort to get back at a woman if it were not for Shui Anluo. He would not have nearly lost control and killed those people several days ago.

If this was not love, he does not know what it was.

Qiao Yarun did not wait for his reply as she looked up at the ceiling. “How about this, Director Chu? If you can get Feng Feng out of the university, I’ll tell you how to coax Xiao Luozi back to you, alright?”

“He’s already unable to remain in the university.” As long as it does not concern feelings, Chu Ningyi would always be able to answer quickly.

“What?” Qiao Yaruan asked curiously, unable to resist from walking to the window. She could not shake off the feeling that there was something she did not know.

Their dormitory was situated at the furthest north point on campus, near the small north gate and it was possible to see the road outisde. Qiao Yaruan could see that there were cars stopped outside and signage from several newspaper bureaus. Suddenly, her mood lifted.

“Director Chu, you really are efficient. Leave coaxing Xiao Luozi home to me.” Qiao Yaruan was now in a particularly good mood.

“But you haven’t answered my question,” Chu Ningyi persisted.

Qiao Yaruan could not help but roll her eyes. He was indeed a deadpan man. She kind of pitied her Xiao Luozi now.

“There’s not much to say about Luoluo’s recent years in the university, I didn’t even know about her marriage or her divorce. I only found out about her marriage when she was pregnant but I didn’t know that she was married to you. As for why she’s so angry, Director Chu, were you really so confident that no accidents would have happened? Even if you were so confident, if you really love someone, this confidence is definitely not enough. After all, Luoluo isn’t just one of your friends.” Qiao Yaruan explained bitterly.

Chu Ningyi frowned. It was true, he was usually surrounded by his comrades-in-arms. His confidence had stemmed from the fact that they were able to coordinate very well with him.

However, had he used the wrong method on Shui Anluo, the girl he had promised to protect?

What if, what if something had really happened to her…

Chu Ningyi clenched his fists, causing a few veins to unexpectedly appear on the back of his hand.

‘Did you ever think that I would be scared?’

‘Chu Ningyi, you’ve arranged everything so flawlessly and yet you don’t know the existence of the word ‘accident’. You believe that you’ll be able to protect her because you have confidence that exceeds that of the average person. Even so, have you ever considered if Shui Anluo had ended up in an accident when she had struggled against the taxi driver? Can your people save her? What if that man had suddenly flown into madness? He might’ve just killed Shui Anluo in that car. Had this ever crossed your mind?’

It seemed that he had really done wrong.
