Chapter 91 - A Cocktail Party
Chapter 91: A Cocktail Party
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shui Anluo lay on the sofa like a corpse as she allowed the little darling to crawl all over her. However, she suddenly turned towards Chu Ningyi when she heard what he had said.
“You’ve dealt with Lin Qianchen?” No wonder she had behaved strangely to her. Aside from Shui Anluo retaliating against her that day, there was another reason for her actions.
Chu Ningyi put the document in his hand down and slowly turned his wheelchair around to approach Shui Anluo.
Shui Anluo automatically backed away but the sofa was behind her. She has nowhere to go and the distance caused her to feel stifled. “Wasn’t that what you wanted?” Chu Ningyi drew closer to her but because the couch and the wheelchair were two separate entities, he could not approach her all the way. However, this close proximity was enough.
A warm sensation shot across the space between them along with a scorching heat. Her skin felt almost burned by the heat.
Recently, Chu Ningyi seemed to have become very fond of flirting. It was as if he was reminding her that he had not been lying.
Furthermore, what had he meant when he asked if that was not what she had wanted to happen to Lin Qianchen? When had she asked for this?
“Director Chu, let’s talk in a civilized manner.” Shui Anluo swallowed thickly. She disregarded the soreness in her arms as she held the baby up as a shield.
The little darling’s large, limpid eyes looked between the two. He waved his tiny hands and feet as he gently parted his lips. It seems that he really enjoys his current position.
Chu Ningyi propped a hand on the couch and rubbed his chin. The little darling used his little hand to grab his daddy’s finger.
“Which part of what I’ve said was unclear?” Chu Ningyi asked with a teasing tone.
Shui Anluo felt resentful. ‘ What part of your statement was actually clear? Don’t you know that this proximity is stifling?’
Shui Anluo thought about it before she lay down again. She then quickly shrank away and retreated to the other side of the couch.
Chu Ningyi calmly straightened his clothes and sat up straight when he saw that she had escaped. He then pulled the little baby who was lying on the sofa onto his lap.
Previously, if it had not been for the baby, he might not have had any further interaction with Shui Anluo in this life.
Now, however, things have changed. Chu Ningyi narrowed his gaze at the little baby. It was likely that their lives would always remain intertwined because of the baby.
“Won’t Lin Qianchen have any objections with you doing this? Isn’t she your best friend?” Shui Anluo decided to rectify the situation and brought Lin Qianchen into the conversation. This was the best way to go about it.
“First of all, she had failed to instruct you properly. Regardless of whether she left you a note or not, she had left the hospital before confirming that you understood the situation. That alone was a problem. As for the two nurses, who gave them the guts to delete my message?”
‘Uh…’
Shui Anluo’s lips twitched. ‘ So, mighty Director Chu, were you doing this for yourself at the end of the day?’
“How can you be so sure that they were the ones who had deleted the message? It could have been Lin Qianchen.” Shui Anluo scoffed softly.
Chu Ningyi stared calmly at her and Shui Anluo immediately avoided his gaze. Alright, she has taken too many liberties. At least Chu Ningyi has given her some sort of justice from this.
“Come with me to a cocktail party the afternoon after tomorrow.”
“I’m not going,” Shui Anluo scoffed. When she had been his legal wife in the past, he had never allowed her to join these sorts of functions. He would rather ask his secretary or Lin Qianchen to accompany him than ask her. She had been sad about this for a very long time.
Now, he was asking her but it was already too late. She has had enough.
