“What about Chu Ningyi, what did he say?” Qiao Yaruan collected her things after changing her shift and walked back in.
“Heh, he’s too busy buying out my family’s company. He doesn’t have the time to concern himself with me,” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth as she replied. She had never asked Chu Ningyi to stand up for her but she never thought that he would buy out Soaring Distance Technologies.
“Eh? He wants to buy your family’s company? That’s a good thing. Besides, that old dotard of a father of yours… No, what I mean is that it’s not yours anyway. Just consider it as an inheritance for your son.” Qiao Yaruan realized that she had said something wrong and hurriedly corrected herself. However, she did not think that Chu Ningyi’s purchase of Soaring Distance Technologies was a bad thing at all. After all, if he does not buy it now, it would eventually land in Shui Anjiao’s hands.
Shui Anluo’s heart throbbed when she heard the words ‘your father’.
“That’s not the point. I don’t care whether Soaring Distance Technologies ends up in my hands or not but it’s still my grandfather’s life work,” sighed Shui Anluo.
“Then do you want it to land into that fraud, Shui Anjiao’s hands? Let me tell you this, stop being silly. Rather than giving it to her, why not leave it for your son?” Qiao Yaruan replied in frustration. “I’m telling you now that if Chu Ningyi wants to take it, let him take it. It’s going to belong to your son in the end anyway.”
“You’re overthinking it. What if he ends up marrying someone else and that person gives him another son? Will my son eat dirt then?”
“Oh, please, your son is the eldest child of the first legal wife. Who would dare to touch the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace?” Qiao Yaruan said as she unlocked her car door. Her father had just bought this car for her.
“If you really can’t stand it, just resign. It’s not like you’ll starve to death.” Qiao Yaruan put her phone in the car and started the car mid-conversation.
“I’m certainly not leaving. Won’t that mean that I’ve silently confessed to making that mistake? I’m not in the wrong,” Shui Anluo replied in frustration. “Are you starting the car?”
“Mm. It’s fine. I’ll use the Bluetooth,” replied Qiao Yaruan. “You’re right, you can’t yield to the matter. Whoever’s at fault should publicly apologize to you. That’s non-negotiable.”
“That’s right.” Shui Anluo clenched her fist as she replied. “You should concentrate on driving, I’m going to find something to eat.” Shui Anluo said before she ended the call.
Chu Ningyi was standing at the window of the ward upstairs as he stared at the person below. There was clearly no way for her frail shoulders to carry any burden yet she had insisted on carrying the burden of an entire family.
“Young Master, Madam Shui is on the phone.” Uncle Chu suddenly appeared behind Chu Ningyi with a mobile phone. The ‘Madam Shui’ he had mentioned was Long Manyin. It was likely that only Long Manyin was fit to hold the title of ‘Madam Shui’ in everyone’s hearts.
Chu Ningyi grunted in reply and took the phone. “Summon her back,” Chu Ningyi said as he answered the call. Uncle Chu stepped out as well.
“How’s Luoluo?” Long Manyin’s elegant voice sounded from the phone.
“Not bad,” Chu Ningyi calmly replied. “But I never thought that you’d initiate a phone call with me.”
“I know that it’s inappropriate for me to send Luoluo to you like that but I had no other choice. I can’t possibly take her with me and An Jiahui will never leave Luoluo alone so easily.” Long Manyin sounded somewhat helpless. “Ningyi, Luoluo is still young so I hope you can be her guardian for the next few years. I’ll come for her after that.”
“What do you think I am? A shelter for refugees? Since you’ve left, why not stay away and never come back? A one-time abandonment is more than enough.” Chu Ningyi’s voice grew even icier, likely because he had been standing on one leg for too long. Therefore, when he turned to walk back to bed, he had not expected to see Shui Anluo standing at the doorway.
