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

The sea breeze grew increasingly humid as if it were in contrast to the weather, casting a burning sensation when it brushed across one’s face.

Shui Anluo grew tired after circling around for a while. She sat down on the beach and watched the crowd dancing around the bonfire. She then leaned over and looked at Chu Ningyi. “Why aren’t you going over?”

Chu Ningyi knelt down as he held the little darling. He clasped his hands over the baby’s little arms and allowed him to walk on his own The little darling seemed to like the sand and was walking in an especially spirited manner.

Shui Anluo saw this and helped the little darling to take off his little shoes. She then buried his tiny feet with sand.

Chu Ningyi stared helplessly at this biological mother who specialized in creating holes for children. He was just about to speak when Shui Anluo suddenly interrupted him. “Oh, oh, oh, I know. You’re definitely going to say that you’ll be just like a fool if you dance like that.”

Chu Ningyi smiled faintly at her as if to say: ‘It’s good that you know.’

Shui Anluo sighed as if lamenting that he did not know how to live.

“Oh, oh, let him sit down. Hurry, hurry,” Shui Anluo exclaimed. She did not wait for Chu Ningyi and took the little darling to sit him down on the beach. The eight-month-old little darling did not need any help to sit down. As soon as Shui Anluo put him down, he began to bury himself in the sand.

“Hey…” Chu Ningyi reached out to stop her but when he heard his son’s gurgling laughter, he stared at the look of annoyance in Shui Anluo’s eyes and slowly put his hand away.

A biological mother who had willingly dug a hole while the other gladly accepted being buried. No one could be blamed for this.

Even though Shui Anluo had intended to only bury half her son’s body, she was afraid that the sand might enter his respiratory system. She only played for show before she carried her son out from the sand and patted the fine sand off his body.

The little darling continued to grab the sand with his hand. He would grab a little then throw it away. The little darling played gleefully as he grabbed and threw tirelessly.

Chu Ningyi looked up and stared at a nearby figure. He smirked but did not say a thing.

“Hey Director Chu, you’re going to profit a lot now. There are so many people.” Shui Anluo quipped and looked at the crowd. However, she noticed that Chu Ningyi’s gaze was not on them at all. Shui Anluo followed his gaze and saw the person standing not too far away.

Shui Anluo’s body froze and her eyes seemed to be locked on that person.

They had never spoken again after that fateful day.

Naturally, Mo Lusu noticed their stares but only smirked. He then turned around and left.

Shui Anluo turned away and continued to play with her son in the sand.

Chu Ningyi lowered his head and stared at Shui Anluo’s lowered head. He reached out and gently stroked her head but did not say anything.

“Tell me about your time together in the university,” Chu Ningyi suddenly said.

Shui Anluo stared at Chu Ningyi in disbelief when she heard this. “Why’re you asking this?”

Her memories with her senior brother in university were mostly of them in class. She had no idea how he could have fallen for her.

“Know the enemy and know yourself, then you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat,” Chu Ningyi replied naturally.

The corners of Shui Anluo’s mouth twitched. “Director Chu, has your jealously gone beyond reason? Or has your love for me deepened?” Shui Anluo grew happier as she spoke. Chu Ningyi has never mentioned the word ‘love’ to her.

“Love?” Chu Ningyi repeated the word as he stared into Shui Anluo’s eager gaze.

“Hey, my dear…”

Unfortunately, before Shui Anluo could hear Chu Ningyi’s reply, she saw her son grab some sand and bring it toward his mouth. It shocked her so much that she immediately grabbed his little hand and dug the sand that he had put into his mouth out.
