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

“So my mother had left this place out of grief and met my father after that. And then?” Shui Anluo blinked.

However, after she blinked, the other two stared at her as if they were looking at a fool. ‘That was your dad and you asked ‘and then?’

Uh…

Shui Anluo’s lips twitched. Alright, she had asked a stupid question.

“Didn’t he know that my parents were already at odds in secret despite being seemingly harmonious on the surface?” Shui Anluo pursed her lips. Actually, it was likely that her mother had thoroughly given up on her father from the moment Shui Anjiao had shown up at their home. Or rather, her mother had already known ever since that woman, An Jiahui, had appeared.

Luo Xuan leaned against the back of the seat as his eyes turned a little blurry. “Perhaps he did, perhaps he didn’t.”

Shui Anluo lowered her head. Perhaps, after being struck down by love, her aunt had not wanted those close to her to be happy. This was justifiable in medicinal terms too.

If that artist had not died, perhaps she would never exist.

She believes that only her mother could tell her the story between her and her father.

“That’s not right, what does this have anything to do with her keeping her wedding from me?” Shui Anluo suddenly returned to her senses and stared at Luo Xuan irritably as if to say: I’m still young so don’t lie to me.

Chu Ningyi raised his brow, clearly amazed. His wife was now enlightened!

She had actually returned to her senses!

Luo Xuan was in shock as well. He then spoke in a matter-of-fact manner, “Did I say that I’d explain that matter to you?”

Shui Anluo was shocked. She then turned around to stare at her man pitifully. Had she been cast away again?

She had listened to him so animatedly for so long yet, in the end, it had nothing to do with the information that she had asked for!

Chu Ningyi stroked his wife’s head. Indeed, ginger would become more experienced and vicious with age. It was expected that his wife would be so formidable.

“You can ask her yourself once you arrive.” Chu Ningyi consoled her.

Shui Anluo placed her head on Chu Ningyi’s shoulder. However, she did not want to ask the question herself.

Luo Xuan poured some wine again and continued to slowly sip from his glass.

Shui Anluo felt vexed as she lay on Chu Ningyi’s arm and glared viciously at Luo Xuan. She would remember this!

The car soon arrived at their destination and Shui Anluo lifted her head to look outside.

It was a castle as well, one that reminded her of the city.

Shui Anluo held Chu Ningyi’s arm as she muttered softly, “My stepdad has more money than you.”

“Regardless of how much money your stepdad has, it will all belong to your biological mother,” Chu Ningyi muttered into her ear as well.

Shui Anluo sighed wistfully. She looked at the large castle and the clear blue sky that could never be seen in ‘A’ City.

Chu Ningyi patted her on the head soothingly. He then held her hand and led her inside.

Actually, he should be the worried one here. He was the one who needs to face his mother-in-law who might give him a hard time.

Let’s not mention the incident when she had slipped down the stairs and hurt her head, there was also the incident surrounding the landslide too. He did not know how to explain that.

The all-powerful Director Chu was at a complete loss when it comes to his mother-in-law.

“Luoluo…” Long Manyin was the first person to welcome Shui Anluo’s group as they entered the great hall. She was dressed in a long white dress and looked like a celestial being at first glance.

Long Manyin reached out to hold Shui Anluo by the wrist as she scrutinized her from head to toe. “Are you alright? Is your head injury better? And those other wounds, let me see.”

As Long Manyin pulled her along and looked at her up and down, Shui Anluo’s insecurities were somewhat soothed by that.
