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

Qiao Yaruan stopped abruptly to look at the vain man in front of her. “Silve Screen King Feng, haven’t you gotten off that stage of yours? Have feelings for you? I’d rather have feelings for a pig.”

Feng Feng looked up and watched Qiao Yaruan as she left.

He refused to believe that she would not fall for him.

‘Just you wait, Qiao Yaruan!’

As Feng Feng was strolling on the road behind Qiao Yaruan, Yuan Jiayi was watching the afternoon news in the hospital. She narrowed her eyes as she thought, ‘Could it be that that woman, Shui Anluo, was still alive?’

“Jiayi, the doctors say that you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. I’ve found a new housekeeper for you. I’m going back to continue guiding the newbie.” The assistant packed her things as she spoke.

Yuan Jiayi looked up and stared at her assistant before she replied neutrally, “Mm, got it.”

The assistant looked at Yuan Jiayi after she had packed her things, “What’s wrong? You don’t have to worry about your job in the future. Didn’t the Director of the Chu Group hire you as their Chief Fashion Designer? It’s just as well, you can stay close to Chu Ningyi.”

Yuan Jiayi threw the newspaper onto the table. The curled corners of her mouth looked icy. “I really don’t understand Ningyi these days. What’s the meaning of this? He had gone missing for so many days and only to reappear after Shui Anluo’s death was confirmed?”

The assistant reached out and looked at the newspaper. She frowned immediately, this donation campaign carried the thick scent of love from within.

However, had Shui Anluo’s death been confirmed by most media channels?

“What’s that about?” The assistant asked, “Didn’t they say that Shui Anluo was already…”

“That woman, Lan Xin, is really nothing much. Maybe she wasn’t able to achieve it,” Yuan Jiayi gnashed her teeth hatefully. When Shui Anluo had encountered that accident, she had guessed that Lan Xin had been behind it. However, she never thought about the possibility of Shui Anluo’s survival.

“You mean… Shui Anluo is still alive?” The assistant asked in disbelief.

Yuan Jiayi stared gloomily at the night sky outside. The Chu Group’s donation drive carried the banner of love. They had not mentioned Shui Anluo’s survival so it implies that it was likely Shui Anluo was still alive and was by Chu Ningyi’s side.

Yuan Jiayi felt even more frustrated at the thought of this. “A slut’s life is like a hard shell. She’s actually still alive.”

The assistant gently patted Yuan Jiayi’s back. “Don’t worry, since someone wants her dead, you only have to wait to reap the benefits. You must act as if you know nothing about this. Don’t let Chu Ningyi suspect you.”

Yuan Jiayi clenched her fists. Naturally, she would not be so silly as to collide head-on with Chu Ningyi on her own. Besides, she had nothing to do with this matter.

“Have you heard? Doctor Lin had been detained and was in jail but a bandit managed to slip inside and held Doctor Lin hostage. No one knows how but, in the end, she was strangled to death by that bandit. It’s so scary.”

“Strangled? That can’t be?”

“Why not? I heard that her body is still in our hospital’s morgue. You have no idea. Her neck had been nearly snapped in two. Also, that bandit was apparently some kind of pirate. He’s been deported out of the country now.”

The two nurses walked further and further away but Yuan Jiayi had overheard their conversation clearly.

Lin Qianchen was dead?

The assistant shuddered. She looked at Yuan Jiayi and said, “This…”

Just as Yuan Jiayi’s face turned pale, Lan Xin arrived at the doorway of her ward and calmly said, “Yuan Jiayi, don’t even think about using me. My intention of killing Shui Anluo is based on my own grudges so anyone who tries to use me will meet with an unhappy end. Lin Qianchen’s failure is a warning for you.”
