Lan Xin looked out of the window. If she had not overheard Qiao Yaruan’s phone conversation this morning, she would probably be the one who was being detained now.
She never, ever suspected that Chu Ningyi’s disappearance over the past few days had been part of this n. He had found Shui Anluo long ago which was why no one had bothered to find Shui Anluo’s body.
Because Shui Anluo had never died in the first ce.
Lan Xin lowered her head as she furrowed her brows beneath her sunsses.
Previously, when Lin Qianchen had reminded her to be careful of Chu Ningyi, she thought that she would go undetected because she did not love Chu Ningyi. However, she had neglected Chu Ningyi’s powers of perception.
It seems that killing that woman, Shui Anluo, would not be as easy as she thought.
However, Shui Anluo has to die no matter what!
The car sped across the road but sighs could be heard in session.
Each time Shui Anluo sighed, Chu Ningyi would nce at her. Finally, on her tenth sigh, Director Chu finally spoke up.
“Do you believe that I’d throw you out if you still refuse to say anything?” Chu Ningyi sighed.
Shui Anluo narrowed her eyes at him then tapped her chin. “Do you think that if Lin Qianchen dies just like that, she...”
“Persisting in evil things brings about self-destruction,” Chu Ningyi scoffed.
Shui Anluo blinked. Alright, Director Chu had hit the nail on the head again.
“Do you really think that it was her?” Shui Anluo asked.
Chu Ningyi nced at her again and slowly replied, “Perhaps. Don’t you have even better choices? For example, Yuan Jiayi?”
“Yuan Jiayi, that’s right, Yuan Jiayi,” said Shui Anluo. She then tapped her chin again and looked outside the window.
Chu Ningyi looked at her from the corner of his eye as she stared out the window. The corners of his lips were raised into a cold smile.
As Shui Anluo gazed out the window, Chu Ningyi received a call. Someone said something from the other end and Chu Ningyi merely replied calmly, “Your sister-inw is still injured. I won’t be going out.”
<i>‘Sister-inw?’</i>
<i>‘Her?’</i>
Shui Anluo blinked herrge eyes which resembled her son’s as if waiting for his answer.
Sister-inw, those rotten guys were much older than her and even the youngest, Fourth Feng, was older than her by more than eight years. However, to be addressed as sister-inw was still a pretty good feeling.
Besides, the fact that Chu Ningyi wants them to call her ‘sister-inw’, does that not mean that he has admitted to her status?
Chu Ningyi looked into her eyes and smirked. “What’re you thinking about, you love-struck idiot?”
Chu Ningyi’s one sentence suddenly pped all of Shui Anluo’s hopes away. Shui Anluo looked up and shot him a vicious re. She was irritated and scoffed, “You’re the love-struck idiot, everyone in your family are love-struck idiots.”
“At present, there’re no love-struck idiots in my family but when you walk through our threshold, you’ll be the first.” Chu Ningyi slowly said with a sense of helplessness over being forced to ept it all.
Shui Anluo knocked her head into the frontpartment. She has decided to cut ties with Chu Ningyi and she refused to continue to speak to him. Otherwise, her lifespan would be shortened by ten years or more.
Chu Ningyi saw that she was no longer speaking so he stopped teasing her. Instead, he said, “Old Third asked to meet up to celebrate your sess in catching the culprit.”
<i>‘Meet up?’</i>
Since Chu Ningyi had rejected it, it must not be at a good ce.
Besides, between the ces frequented by the four of them, she did not know any other ces aside from bars so Shui Anluo would choose to reject it too.
Chu Ningyi raised his brow and calmly mentioned something about going home. He then ended the call.
Shui Anluo blinked, “Can I bring the Empress Dowager?”
“No!”
<i>‘Uh...’</i>
<i>‘How straightforward.’</i>
Shui Anluo reached out and tugged the corner of his shirt as she blinked herrge eyes at him.
Chu Ningyi stopped the car at the traffic light and nced at her. “Shui Anluo, you owe me an exnation.”
He seemed to no longer want to stay in a pensive mood and had spoken earnestly. His words were cold and somewhat taunting.
Shui Anluo’s hand froze in ce. She retracted it automatically and clenched her fists until her palms ached. Even then, she did not rx.
How could she exin it?
How could she exin that she had intended on causing Lin Qianchen’s death or to exin her step-by-step deception?
That she had allowed him to see that ice-cold malicious side of her?
