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

Uncle Chu watched the three from the rearview mirror and his lips curled into a smile. This was how a family should look like. The presence of a child was the strongest bond for a cohesive family.

Chu Ningyi did not understand what the little darling meant. Shui Anluo rolled her eyes. “He wants to kiss you.”

Chu Ningyi shot her an icy glare but inched closer to the little darling anyway. The little darling planted another forceful kiss on his daddy’s face contentedly before he returned to his mommy’s arms contentedly, continuously clapping his little hands together.

Chu Ningyi wiped his face with the wet tissue again. His son’s problem was just like his mother’s.

Shui Anluo watched him wipe his face but he did not seem to be fed up. This was also her son’s patented skill. Anyone else would have been kicked out.

“You can try, I guarantee that you won’t be kicked out.”

Just as Shui Anluo was wondering secretly, Chu Ningyi suddenly spoke up.

Shui Anluo was shocked and nearly threw her son out.

Was Director Chu possessed?

He was like this since yesterday night. These teasing words were now always at his fingertips.

The car stopped at the Chu Group shopping center. Shui Anluo watched Chu Ningyi open the door and get down from the car.

The little darling looked down and focused on playing with his little hands, seemingly unaware of what had happened. However, when he looked up again he realized that his daddy has gotten off the car.

He was gone!

Hence, the little darling grew anxious. He babbled and pointed outside, asking his mommy to get down from the car.

Shui Anluo gritted her teeth and glared at the little ingrate on her lap. As long as his daddy was in the vicinity, all he could see was his daddy.

Chu Ningyi stood at the car door and stared at her unhurriedly. This was the benefit of bringing the little darling along. No matter how much Shui Anluo refused, she would never cause the little darling to cry.

Hence, Chu Ningyi soon saw Shui Anluo get off the car with a furious look on her face.

The little darling however, was excited and grinned at his mommy.

Perhaps it was because she understood the occarion, Maid Yu had dressed the little darling up handsomely. He was dressed in a small short-sleeved shirt and a navy-blue blazer. He had a pair of navy colored pants and wore light blue baby leather shoes. The little darling had always held a handsome and elegant air. This get-up immediately attracted quite a lot of stares.

Shui Anluo had thought that Chu Ningyi was going to buy a dress for her. After walking around for half a day, it turned out that he was only choosing a present for the old lady. She wondered if he had done it on purpose or not but ever since they had entered the shopping mall, Chu Ningyi had kept his arm around her waist, creating an initimate feeling.

“It’s just a house party, there’s no need to dress up so much.” Chu Ningyi seemed to have seen right through her thoughts and murmured into her ear.

Shui Anluo shivered. She wanted to break away from him but was pulled into his arms in one swift action.

Shui Anluo spat softly. Was this the definition of the mythical story of trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it?

‘Big Brother, I don’t want to be held like this!’

“Director Chu, these are newly-arrived first-class emeralds, have a look.” A salesperson picked a gold plate off the counter and showed it to him. Shui Anluo stared at the small, glittering and transluscent jade pendants and only one symbol floated across her eyes — Yuan.

Even if she knew nothing about jade or emeralds, based on the light transmittancy, she knew that these were of good quality. Furthermore, they would certainly not be cheap.
