Shui Anluo wondered, Who would be here at this hour?

Chu Ningyi walked over to open the door, feeling disdainful towards Shui Anluo’s neighborhood once again. The door did not even have a peephole, were these unprotected people who lived here unafraid of criminals?

Shui Anluo followed him but stayed hidden behind Chu Ningyi. She held onto his arm with both hands and only poked her small head outside.

She looked like a mischievous daughter hiding behind her father, curious over the kind of marvels that might appear.

However, the person who appeared before her eyes was not anyone else but Uncle Chu who was rushing towards them.

Uncle Chu conveyed his news once the door was opened. “Young Master, Miss Yuan is awake but her state of mind is very unstable right now,” said Uncle Chu.

Chu Ningyi frowned and Shui Anluo firmly let go of his arm.

Chu Ningyi was probably Yuan Jiayi’s only relative in this world. If Chu Ningyi really gave up on her at this point in time, all that could be said was — Chu Ningyi was not a man.

Indeed, after Chu Ningyi had frowned, he simply instructed Uncle Chu to send Shui Anluo and the little darling home before he left.

Shui Anluo took a deep breath and watched the man as he rushed downstairs.

“Young Madam.” Uncle Chu lowered his head.

Shui Anluo turned back to look at the little darling on the bed. She then scooped him into her arms and looked at Uncle Chu. “Uncle Chu, wait for me outside.”

Uncle Chu nodded unsuspectingly.

After Uncle Chu had gone out and she had closed the door, Shui Anluo unbuttoned the top of her shirt and coaxed the little darling into taking his milk. Otherwise, he would certainly make a fuss out of hunger later on.

Shui Anluo pursed her lips and glanced at the moonlight outside. If she surrendered and handed Chu Ningyi over to someone else this time, her name would not be Shui Anluo.

“Once you’ve finished drinking, go home with Grandpa Chu like a good boy. Mommy’s going to battle,” Shui Anluo murmured and gently kissed the little darling’s head several times.

The little darling suckled forcefully as his little brows smoothened out in satisfaction. However, he did not wake up.

Qian Yaruan, who did not hear any other noise outside, stepped out and found Shui Anluo breastfeeding on the sofa. She could not help but look left and right. “Where’s Director Chu?”

“Yuan Jiayi is awake. She’s allegedly self-harming now,” Shui Anluo replied as she looked up at Qiao Yaruan who was walking over. Perhaps it was due to the incident which had just happened, Shui Anluo still had a mild blush when she looked at Qiao Yaruan.

Qiao Yaruan muttered a curse. Why was she unable to believe that that person was actually inflicting self-harm?

“Yuan Jiayi’s indeed the most vicious woman I’ve ever met,” Qiao Yaruan scoffed coldly.

“Who cares whether she’s truly unable to accept this or if it’s fake? I’m going to the hospital now. Doesn’t she need someone to take care of her? Regardless, my care will be better than Chu Ningyi’s,” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth as she spoke.

“Good thinking.” Qiao Yaruan praised as she reached out and placed her hand on Shui Anluo’s shoulder. “Wait a moment, I’ll get changed and go with you as well.”

In the quiet hallways of the hospital, the shrill screams that could shatter glass sounded particularly clear.

“Get out, all of you, get out,” Yuan Jiayi screamed as if she had gone completely mad.

Chu Ningyi heard the insane shrieks the moment he arrived and he saw that the doctors and nurses were standing by the door of the ward.

The doctors and nurses quickly stepped aside once Chu Ningyi had arrived.

“Director Chu.”

Chu Ningyi nodded. “What’s the situation?”

“Miss Yuan might have found it difficult to accept all this for the moment so...” The doctor quietly spoke up.
