Chapter 391: A Fatal Phone Call

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Ningyi had never clearly articulated his feelings.

However, his equivocal feelings had touched her deeply.

Chu Ningyi narrowed his eyes at her. In the end, he turned around and... left!

Shui Anluo was dazed as she stared at the closed door. What was going on now?

Director Chu, was it really a good idea to be that sassy?

Even though her plans in coaxing a confession out of Director Chu had failed, Shui Anluo was still in quite a good mood because Director Chu had said that he has no feelings for other people because he had given all his feelings to her.

On this night, Shui Anluo had slept very well. She slept all the way until the sun shone brilliantly in the sky.

When Shui Anluo woke up, the little darling had gone missing, probably carried away by Chu Ningyi. She washed her face and rinsed her mouth. As she headed downstairs, she heard Chu Ningyi who was in the middle of a call.

“Follow him, maybe today’s the day,” Chu Ningyi instructed coldly.

Shui Anluo paused on her way down. One of her hands was on the banister and one foot that was just about to step down.

‘Him?’

‘Who?’

Shui Anluo slowly walked downstair as she wondered who that person was.

As Shui Anluo pondered, a malicious light flashed across her eyes but it disappeared almost immediately.

The little darling has been very fond of his beloved steed of late. Ever since he had received it, he no longer needed to crawl around like an animal and he began to progress to walk like a human. He was incessantly enjoying the sense of pride that came with walking on two legs.

When Shui Anluo arrived downstairs, the little darling was zooming around on his beloved steed. Even Maid Yu had to chase after him.

Chu Ningyi ended the call and threw his phone onto the desk. He then turned around and headed to the upstairs bathroom.

Shui Anluo walked down leisurely. She watched Chu Ningyi head to the bathroom and saw the phone on the table. Her eyes lit up and the profoundness in them increased. She carefully picked the phone up and glanced over at the washroom like a thief. Chu Ningyi was still inside, he must be taking a dump.

At this moment, Shui Anluo felt an incomparable hope. ‘Be constipated, mighty Director Chu, be constipated.’

“Young Madam?” Maid Yu saw the complacent look on Shui Anluo’s face and cried out.

“Shh...” Shui Anluo gestured at Maid Yu to be quiet. Her son’s little paw immediately patted her thigh. Shui Anluo looked down and stroked his little head. “Be good, play on your own for a while. Mommy’s making a call to your godmother.”

The little darling blinked. Was his mommy actually ignoring him?

He patted on his mommy’s thigh with his little hand once again. “Ah... Ah...”

Shui Anluo sat down on the sofa and picked the little darling up with one hand to put him on her lap. The phone in her other hand was dialing Qiao Yaruan’s phone.

This was Qiao Yaruan’s second day to be back at the hospital. Her entire being was still battered out of her wits to the point that when her phone rang, she listlessly pulled it out and did not even look at the screen before answering. “Hello...”

“Empress Dowager, it’s me, it’s me!” Shui Anluo cried out excitedly. Four days after her accident, she has finally managed to contact her empress dowager.

“Luoluo?” Qiao Yaruan’s listless state instantly vanished. She cried out softly before she looked around nervously. She then hurriedly headed outside.

However, after Qiao Yaruan headed out, someone slowly walked out from around the corner.

Lan Xin placed both hands in the pocket of her white lab coat as she frowned at where Qiao Yaruan was standing moments ago. Was she referring to Shui Anluo when she mentioned ‘Luoluo’?

Lan Xin’s frown deepened as she thought about this. Could it be that Shui Anluo was still alive?

Lan Xin lowered her head and looked at her wristwatch. There was still half an hour before the time of the meeting that she had set yesterday. If Shui Anluo was still alive, who had saved her?
