Qiao Yaruan looked up at the ceiling and rolled her eyes. “Don’t go out and tell others that I’m acquainted with you, it’s embarra.s.sing.”

Shui Anluo reached out to end the call before she looked down at her son who was sound asleep. She reached out and patted his little tummy.

Ever since he had brought her back for the baby’s sake, he had always treated her nicely. Even though she had broken his leg by accident, he had not blamed her either. Instead, he had helped her to stand up to his mother.

In return, she had been avoiding him and putting up walls against his advances.

“Why don’t Mommy have a talk with your daddy?” Shui Anluo softly murmured. She then got up and scooped the little baby up from his small cot. “Come with Mommy.” She does not have the guts to face Chu Ningyi alone.

Shui Anluo carried the sleeping baby out before tapping out a series of knocks on Chu Ningyi’s door.

There was no response. Just as Shui Anluo was about to give up on knocking on Chu Ningyi’s door, his deep voice rang out, “Come in.”

Shui Anluo shuddered. In the end, she gathered her nerves and carried the baby inside.

Shui Anluo noticed Chu Ningyi on the bed the moment she opened the door. He was dressed in white high-grade pajamas and there was a pile of doc.u.ments on his lap. Everyone knows that Chu Ningyi has a privileged status but she also knew that he was always busy. Sometimes, he would be perusing doc.u.ments until half the night through.

Chu Ningyi slowly looked up. His eyes were as icy and cold as ever.

Shui Anluo was frightened by the look of his eyes. Before she could retreat, she quickly placed her son on him. “Ah, I need to talk to you.” There was less possibility of him flipping out if he was carrying his son.

Chu Ningyi looked down and stared at his cherub-faced son. The little baby was still sound asleep. His lotus root-like fingers were gently twitching while he smacked his tiny lips.

“Speak.”

He only said one word and it was straight to the point. It suited how he usually dealt with outsiders.

Shui Anluo slowly clenched her hands. She twisted the corners of her pajamas in front of his bed as if she were thinking about what she should say next.

Chu Ningyi noticed that she did not speak and frowned even more. “Are you going to talk or not?”

He meant that if she was not going to say anything, she should scram.

“I want to know, why did you have to do something like that?” Shui Anluo took a deep breath before she finally found the nerve to speak.

Chu Ningyi slowly looked up at her but the deep look in his eyes was rather frightening.

“What do you think?” Chu Ningyi’s voice remained calm. He had already given her that answer but she had never taken it seriously.

‘Shui Anluo, I was being serious when I said that I want to court you.’

The things he had once said echoed clearly into her ears. He had said many things before but these were the only words she remembered.

Shui Anluo stood uneasily on the spot but her feet kept fidgeting as if she did not know how to react.

“But you know that my father doesn’t want me,” Shui Anluo lowered her head and muttered softly.

“I’m not your father,” Chu Ningyi scoffed softly, his eyes locked on her lowered head.

“Yes, you aren’t my father but you’re also someone who had abandoned me before,” Shui Anluo said and looked at him with eyes full of self-mockery. “However, because you aren’t my father, I don’t hate you. As you never told me that you loved me, I don’t hate you.”

Chu Ningyi narrowed his eyes. “Are you trying to say that… As you never considered me to be a loved one, you don’t hate me. Since you don’t love me, you don’t hate me.”

Shui Anluo turned her eyes away. There was an awkward smile on the corner of her lips. That question was certainly awkward…
