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

Shui Anluo scoffed internally.

“Hurry up, he’s going to lose his voice from all that crying soon,” said Shui Anluo as she stomped her foot.

However, in the very next second, Chu Ningyi had dragged her upstairs with him. Once they returned to the room, he placed the little darling back in her arms. “I don’t know how.”

Shui Anluo secretly gritted her teeth. You don’t know how yet you act like you’re so bold and confident!

“Teach me.”

Just as Shui Anluo was about to issue a retort, Chu Ningyi spat out two words. Those two words were enough to render Shui Anluo into a mild shock.

He had not said ‘do it yourself’. Instead, it was ‘teach me!’

“Hurry up. He’s going to lose his voice from all that crying soon,” Chu Ningyi scoffed coldly, throwing her earlier words right back at her.

Shui Anluo stared at him irritably as she carried her son with one arm and turned the warm water on with the other. As the water ran, she pulled down the infant’s shorts. She then took a wet wipe and wiped his little buttocks clean first before she placed him in the warm water.

Chu Ningyi stood nearby and stared at the scene with furrowed brows. No one could tell what he was thinking behind his narrowed eyes.

Shui Anluo gave the little darling a new diaper and the little darling immediately stared at his mommy with a grin.

Shui Anluo pressed her head against his little forehead and played with him.

Chu Ningyi leaned against the corner as he watched. He stared in annoyance at the objects in the trash can.

“Did you get a good look? You can do it next time,” Shui Anluo scoffed as she carried her son and rose to her feet.

“I saw nothing,” Chu Ningyi spoke in a cold and lofty voice before he straightened up, turned around, and left the bathroom.

Shui Anluo stared at the man who was leaving in disbelief. The fiery rage in her heart slowly burned.

“Babble…” The little darling waved his arms and stroked his mommy’s flustered little face.

Shui Anluo’s entire mind was filled with the phrase — that wily old fox!

When Shui Anluo angrily carried the little darling downstairs, Chu Ningyi had changed his clothes and was fixing his cuff links. “Neaten yourself up a little, I’ll send you to the hospital.”

Shui Anluo was shocked. She placed the little darling into his little cot before she hurried back upstairs to grab the slightly edited reports and return downstairs. She had thought that Chu Ningyi would not allow her to go to the hospital so her actions clearly depicted her current excitement.

Chu Ningyi finished tidying up his clothes and stared at Shui Anluo as she ran downstairs. He scoffed, “I don’t see you looking so energetic in other matters.”

Shui Anluo held her notebook and secretly cursed at him in her heart. After a few words with Maid Yu, she lowered her head and kissed the little darling’s cheek. “Mommy’s going to work now, I’ll be back at night to play with you.”

The little darling babbled, unaware of what was going on.

Just as Shui Anluo and Chu Ningyi walked out the door, they heard the little darling wailing as Maid Yu tried to comfort him.

Chu Ningyi entered the elevator and Shui Anluo hurried behind him.

“I’ll speak to the hospital’s director today and ask him to change your mentor. As for the first failure, what you’d received was not an injustice either,” said Chu Ninyi as he looked at Shui Anluo who was looking down at the ground. He placed one hand on her shoulder and as she looked up curiously, he chucked her chin with the other. “Shui Anluo, I’ll give you one more chance. What do you think about us starting a relationship?”

They were the only two people in the elevator. Chu Ningyi had one hand on her shoulder and the other hand was under her chin. He was clearly taking liberties.

He was still her guardian one second ago but he was now asking to start a relationship with her!
