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

Qiao Yaruan frowned. “No, what I’m saying is that you think he would be attracted to your thirty percent shares so he…”

Shui Anluo looked at Qiao Yaruan’s ‘you must be kidding me’ face and could not help but blurt out, “What kind of reaction is that?”

“No, think about it, if Chairman Chu wanted your shares, why would he even need to resort to this? He would have many other ways to do it, okay?” Unconsciously, Qiao Yaruan still hopes that Shui Anluo would go back with Chu Ningyi.

“Do you know how cold he was to me in the past? At the time, I thought that was just his personality but I ultimately understood that he doesn’t care about me,” Shui Anluo calmly replied. “He never cared about me in the past and now we’re divorced. Furthermore, do you really think we can trust his claims on courting me?”

Qiao Yaruan narrowed her eyes as she stared seriously at Shui Anluo. “That’s true.”

They had returned to the office even though they had been stared at the entire time. However, Shui Anluo does not want to care about this because, no matter what, she would be the only one they were talking about.

After they changed their clothes, Lin Qianchen suddenly walked over and asked them to follow her for a house call.

Qiao Yaruan raised her brow. “Beware of suspicious folk bearing gifts, they are sure to be ill-intentioned.”

“Even though I refuse to admit how you’ve just compared us to prostitutes, I don’t think she has any good intentions either,” said Shui Anluo as she picked her notebook up and threw another one at Qiao Yaruan. “Let’s go.”

Chu Ningyi was seated in his wheelchair in a quiet room as he watched the overcast weather.

Bai Yehan was looking through some documents from his seat on the sofa. He then looked at the man by the window, “Is this really all for Shui Anluo’s sake?”

As a senior lawyer, Bai Yehan has been helping Chu Ningyi from the beginning so he knows the situation from start to end. However, he never thought that Chu Ningyi would do all this only for Shui Anluo’s sake.

“Tell Fourth Feng to hold off for a bit and to not touch anyone on Shui Anluo’s side.” Chu Ningyi ignored Bai Yehan’s question and brought this up instead.

Bai Yehan still wanted to say something but Chu Ningyi has already answered him indirectly. Even the people on Shui Anluo’s side could not be provoked. What does that prove? He loves the house and its crow. He even wants to shield those on Shui Anluo’s side.

“Alright.” Bai Yehan did not question him any longer. “Shui Anjiao’s birthday party is tomorrow and I think that An Jiahui will make her move then.” Bai Yehan then closed the documents in his hands and put it on the table.

“I know,” said Chu Ningyi calmly as he turned around and looked at Bai Yehan. “As Shui Anjiao will be turning twenty-two, the transfer of shares in the will would come into effect tomorrow.”

Bai Yehan nodded. No wonder he had wanted to bring Shui Anluo along.

Chu Ningyi pulled the audio recording pen out from a drawer. He had not returned it to Shui Anluo because it had not been the right time. However, the timing was just right now.

“You have a total of forty percent shares in your possession. If you transfer them to Shui Anluo’s name today, she’ll become be the biggest shareholder of Soaring Distance Technologies before the will comes into effect,” said Bai Yehan. “However, how’re you going to get Shui Anluo to sign it?”

“My family’s servant girl isn’t that bright.” Therefore, it would be easy to trick her.

‘My family servant girl?’

Bai Yehan felt goosebumps erupt across his entire body when he heard those words. Has Eldest Chu plunged completely into a trap?

Has he become trapped in the hands of this little girl?
