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

Chu Ningyi’s headache increased when he saw the look on her face. He was certain that his former mother-in-law’s usage of the word ‘guardian’ to describe the deeper meaning of his feelings for Shui Anluo had been correct. He was now definitely Shui Anluo’s guardian.

“Do you know the kind of responsibilities you’d hold in your hand as a doctor?” Chu Ningyi asked sternly.

“You’re saying that anyone with poor results will never be a good doctor, right? Everyone thinks that school results are everything,” Shui Anluo said through gritted teeth. Her academic results might be poor but this has no direct relation to her interest in becoming a doctor.

“Your marks are horrible, how do you intend to use what you’ve learned in real life?” Chu Ningyi was getting angrier.

“Even if my results are bad, I can learn. Senior Brother won’t do this to me. He’d look for learning material for me,” Shui Anluo was furious and retorted angrily.

Chu Ningyi gave her the impression that he looked down on her whereas her senior brother was someone who would make notes for her.

“Shui Anluo,” Chu Ningyi replied sharply. The way he looked at Shui Anluo has also turned gloomy. “Shui Anluo, let me tell you this, don’t ever mention your senior brother in front of me again.”

“It’s true, you look down on me anyway. Lin Qianchen is just like that and so are you,” Shui Anluo remarked loudly. “Besides, in your eyes, students with poor results amount to nothing,” Shui Anluo said as she straightened up and bit her lips. “I’ll never give up on what I’ve resolved to do. If you don’t want me to do my internship here, just say it. There’s no need to drag my marks into this.” Shui Anluo spoke and left immediately.

Chu Ningyi forcefully took a deep breath in order to restrain himself from kicking the table in front of him.

Maid Yu peered carefully at him. Luckily, the little darling was still fast asleep and had not been disturbed by their fight.

“Young Master, allow me to speak out of turn. In doing this, aren’t you just pushing the Eldest Miss to Doctor Mo?” Maid Yu has a good grasp of her young master’s IQ. While the Eldest Miss was not the type of person with a thick face, she had never intended to get bad grades. For her, to have someone point it out in such an obvious manner was definitely equivalent to her being slapped in the face.

‘ I’m pushing Shui Anluo to Mo Lusu?’ ¹

Chu Ningyi looked at the room’s door and clenched his fist on the table.

After his conversation with her lecturer yesterday, he had been severely worried about her grades.

That was why he had stressed about it today. He had no intention of ridiculing her but, unfortunately, Shui Anluo was not of the same mind.

After Shui Anuo ran out of the ward, she punched the leaves outside the hospital with full force as she muttered to herself, “So what if I’m bad in my studies? Have I wasted the food in your house? Have I used your money for my education fees? My mother said that as long as I’m happy, it’s good enough. Why are you meddling in my business?”

The more Shui Anluo spoke, the more wronged she felt. After all, a person who was not failing on purpose would be very sensitive about this. She had already tried very hard but when someone else implied that she was useless… There was nothing more hurtful than that.

Especially since it had come from someone she cared about!

“Admit it, Shui Anluo, you really are useless.” Lin Qianchen stood nearby with her arms crossed. She had spoken disdainfully as she stared at Shui Anluo’s back.

Shui Anluo immediately put the grief in her eyes away and instantly straightened her back. She then turned around to stare at the scornful-looking Lin Qianchen and looked around her. It was 6:30 p.m. in the summer which was peak hour at the hospital. However, not many people were in this small garden so Lin Qianchen had no need to put up a front.

“Was it you? Did you say something to Chu Ningyi?” Shui Anluo placed her hands on her hips and knitted her brows. Otherwise, she was afraid that she would not be able to stop herself from punching Lin Qianchen.
