Qiao Yaruan chuckled. “You’ve been abandoned.”
“Get lost, get lost, get lost...” Shui Anluo said and got up from her half kneeling and half lying position on the bed. She walked to the window and watched as the car drove away. She stroked her chin.
“Empress Dowager, come with me, I want to catch an adulteress.” Shui Anluo scoffed and turned around, taking her jacket from the bed. She put it on and dragged Qiao Yaruan to sneak out of the hospital.
“No, catch what adulteress?” Qiao Yaruan frowned as she followed her out.
“Who else, Yuan Jiayi. Only Yuan Jiayi’s left now so he must have gone to see her,” Shui Anluo replied, pulling Qiao Yaruan into the lift.
“Xiao Luozi, I kind of understand now, your IQ is explosive when it comes to your relationship with Director Chu.”
“I’d lose my husband if it wasn’t explosive.” Shui Anluo leaned against the elevator and answered a matter-of-factly.
“Put on this hat, your head shouldn’t get cold,” Qiao Yaruan said and covered her head with a hat.
“I love you the most, Empress Dowager.” Shui Anluo stroked Qiao Yaruan’s arm and stepped out of the elevator with her. “I wasn’t using you, I really wanted to call you to tell you that I was alright. It had been purely down to luck whether Lan Xin would have overheard us or not. Both outcomes were of no loss to me. Besides, I could still call you and tell you that I’m alright, isn’t that a multitude of benefits in one move?” Shui Anluo explained seriously.
“You’re clever.” Qiao Yaruan reached out and flagged a car down, helping helped Shui Anluo into the vehicle. “However, that’s good too. You’ve prevented Lin Qianchen from causing more trouble for you after getting out of prison.”
After Shui Anluo mentioned the location, she leaned on Qiao Yaruan’s shoulder and sighed helplessly. “Actually, when she was willing to take the blame for Lan Xin instead of speaking the truth, I knew that she didn’t want to cause trouble for me but to take my life.”
“Poor little girl...” Qiao Yaruan stroked Shui Anluo’s head. “What about Yuan Jiayi?”
“I don’t care, I’ve handed the reins to Director Chu entirely. He shoulders a life debt to Yuan Jiayi’s father, I don’t want to trouble him and Beautiful Brother.”
“So why are you still going after the adulteress?”
“This is different.” Shui Anluo replied urgently. “I’m going to ensure that Director Chu doesn’t get taken advantage of when he talks to her.”
“But how do you know that he’d meet Yuan Jiayi at her home?”
“I’d dragged Yuan Jiayi along with me this morning when I tumbled down the stairs. Even though she didn’t bleed, I’d wager that that leg of hers is pretty much entirely crippled.” Shui Anluo leaned on her shoulder again. “So Director Chu must have gone to her house.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, has Scheming Shui come online for Director Chu’s sake?”
“Nope, it’s still for the sake of my own life.” Shui Anluo grinned and seemed extremely foolish.
Shui Anluo had not been mistaken. Chu Ningyi has indeed set up a meeting with Yuan Jiayi but it was not inside her house but was at the small community garden downstairs from her home.
The housekeeper had left after sending Yuan Jiayi downstairs.
She still had no idea about what had happened in the hospital but based on the look on Chu Ningyi’s face, she could guess that Lan Xin had failed again.
After Shui Anluo and Qiao Yaruan got down from the car, they noticed the pair standing in the garden upon entering the neighborhood. Shui Anluo quickly pushed Qiao Yaruan and hid.
Chu Ningyi’s brow twitched but he continued to stand without a change in his expression.
“Why downstairs?” Qiao Yaruan softly wondered.
Shui Anluo shook her head, she did not know either.
Yuan Jiayi stared at Chu Ningyi resentfully. “Why won’t you even step into my home now?”
