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

In the first picture, her senior brother was covering her with a jacket. In the second picture, her senior brother was placing a bundle of clothes below her head. In the third picture, she and her senior brother were helping each other forward in the rainy night. In the fourth picture, her senior brother was carrying her on his back.

Shui Anluo swiped her finger across the screen. Each picture was rife with flirtatiousness.

The tips of Shui Anluo’s fingers shivered and she immediately looked up at Chu Ningyi. She seemed to want to figure out how he feels about the situation from his expression yet she was also thinking about how to explain the situation to him.

“This…” Shui Anluo shook her head and tried her best to explain herself clearly. “Chu Ningyi, someone must be doing this on purpose. The Empress Dowager had been between us the whole time but that person didn’t take a picture of that. In this one, the road down the mountain was too slippery so…” Shui Anluo anxiously swiped across the photos in the phone, wanting to explain things to him one by one.

“However, he really isn’t showing a normal level of gentleness, isn’t he?” Chu Ningyi sneered and reached out to take the phone from Shui Anluo’s hand. The sight of Mo Lusu’s gentle smile was blinding no matter how he looked at it.

All of Shui Anluo’s explanation was interrupted by Chu Ningyi’s observation.

Because her senior brother has feelings for her!

This was a fact that she could not avoid.

This was also a fact known to Chu Ningyi.

Shui Anluo’s hand remained suspended in the air as if she was still holding the phone even though he had already taken the phone away.

“What, no more explanation?” Chu Ningyi slowly drew near her. His chilly voice stung.

Explain? How else could she explain it?

Shui Anluo seemed to be upset by his icy demeanor. The man who had suckled on her breasts so that she would not suffer was now speaking to her in an icy manner now.

She believes that, ultimately, she was no match for Chu Ningyi because she could never be as vicious as him.

Shui Anluo retracted her trembling hand. She then looked at him straight in the eye though her eyes were filled with stubbornness, refusing to concede. “If you already have the answer in your heart, why ask me?”

Her eyes were filled with stubbornness but her stubbornness was filled with grief and the refusal to admit defeat.

Chu Ningyi put the phone away and sat behind her as he reached out to hold their son at the same time.

Shui Anluo trembled as if surprised by his actions.

Was this loving embrace the result of that?

Chu Ningyi held her tightly and murmured into her ear, “Why were you so frantic in explaining things to me?”

These words were no longer icy. It was as if his cold demeanor from just a while ago never existed.

Shui Anluo’s body stiffened as if she did not dare to let her guard down.

Chu Ningyi was quite terrifying to her. His state of mind was just like the little darling’s and it was hard for her to grasp what he was thinking. He could be bursting with laughter in one moment and bursting into tears in the next moment.

He could also be very gentle in one moment but turn into a glacier in the next.

Chu Ningyi saw that she did not reply so he softly murmured into her ear again. “Shui Anluo, since the first thing you thought about was to explain things to me and not ask who had taken these photos, doesn’t that mean that deep down in your heart, you’re more concerned about any misunderstandings on my end?”

It was a bit of a tongue twister but Shui Anluo understood.

The first thing she had thought about was to explain things to him and not ask who had taken these pictures.

In her heart, explaining things to him was more important.

Because she cares about him!

Hehe, he sure was smart to be able to figure all of this out so easily!

Shui Anluo lowered her head. Her tightly pursed lips clearly showed that she was suppressing her true feelings.
