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

Shui Anluo noticed Uncle Chu’s lowered head and felt even more curious.

“What’s going on?” She asked.

Chu Ningyi linked his hands together and looked up at Shui Anluo. He then said, “An Jiahui is holding a press conference to condemn you for angering Shui Moyun until he fell ill. Also…”

When Shui Anluo heard about An Jiahui’s press conference, she tensed up even more. However, she grasped the meaning of the situation even before she heard the next part of Chu Ningyi’s sentence.

“So she wants my part of the shares left to me by my grandfather?” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth. An Jiahui had crossed the line.

Chu Ningyi looked at his wristwatch. “It’s now 11:30 p.m. and Shui Moyun’s will will come into effect after midnight.”

Shui Anluo gripped her hands and stared at the man in front of her.

“I won’t ever let them get away with this,” said Shui Anluo before she turned and left.

Chu Ningyi gently stroked his chin, “Tell me, does this girl not know what kind of person the father of her child is?”

Chu Ningyi felt irritated due to Shui Anluo’s lack of confidence in him.

“Perhaps the Young Madam is just… Not used to it.” Uncle Chu explained after a long consideration.

Shui Anluo arrived at the hospital’s lounge. There was a huge number of reporters there including the bawling mother and daughter. An Jiahui was denouncing Shui Anluo’s crimes piece by piece. The fight that came to blows and the insults she had hurled at her elders; these crimes overflowed fluently from her mouth.

Shui Anluo trembled. She bit her lips until she could taste blood.

“Regardless, her father and I have been together for more than twenty years. In the past, I had lost my chance but Moyun and I are truly in love. It was her mother who had caused the affair. I kept the secret for her for so long yet I never thought that, in the end…” An Jiahui sobbed as she spoke sorrowfully.

“My mother had started the affair?” Shui Anluo scoffed and quickly cut through the crowd. She stepped in front of the reporters amidst their chatter and said, “An Jiahui, heaven is watching. Be careful, you might end up getting struck by lightning.”

An Jiahui heard Shui Anluo’s voice and her heart leaped with joy. She knows that this girl has a flighty temper so she used these kinds of methods to anger her, hoping that the reporters could witness what a wild, unruly girl Shui Anluo truly was.

“Luoluo, how could you talk to me in that manner? Whatever it is, I’m your elder. I’ve let go of your previous false accusations but, this time…” An Jiahui said as she wiped her tears.

“That’s right, Luoluo, how could you do this? You’ve angered father into sickness.” Shui Anjiao saw that Shui Anluo had come alone and rejoiced. Even Chu Ningyi does not want her now.

The minutes and seconds shot past as Shui Anluo looked at the clock in the hospital lounge. There were only ten minutes left.

“Miss Shui, in regards to this matter, had you done it on purpose?”

“Miss Shui, as an illegitimate daughter, you had treated your adoptive father in that manner. Was this how your mother had taught you, Miss Shui?”

“Can you explain to us, Miss Shui, why your mother still has not arrived even now? Is it because when two dogs strive for a bone, a third runs away with it?”

“Furthermore, you, Miss Shui, had just sent an announcement to ask if anyone wanted to take in a puppy. Do you not care about Mister Shui’s condition, Miss Shui?”

…

Voices in discussion continued one after another as Chu Ningyi watched the woman who was standing perfectly straight from a distance.

“Alright, alright, I’m here.” Just as Shui Anluo was staring quietly at the two, Qiao Yaruan’s excited voice chimed in.
