The entire area fell silent after Chu Ningyi spoke.
Shui Anluo looked down and stared at the silent Chu Ningyi as a warm sensation rose within her heart. Regardless of the situation, there was still someone who would stand on her side and protect her. At this moment, it was very hard to reject his current demeanor.
Shui Anjiao trembled and her eyes flickered a little as well.
“Once you’re done choosing your clothes, let’s go home.” Chu Ningyi looked up and held Shui Anluo’s hand. His tone was no longer cold, there was a hint of warmth instead.
Shui Anluo smiled and nodded. “That pink one, I want that one.” She had seen that there were two pink dresses and Shui Anjiao loves to imitate her the most. She was giving her an opportunity.
Chu Ningyi nodded and asked the salesperson to wrap the dress up. He did not spare Shui Anjiao a second glance and immediately left with Shui Anluo.
Shui Anjiao was so angry that she stomped her foot. She was going to give her a good show tonight.
Shui Anjiao thought for a bit before she turned around in a huff to grab the other pink dress. However, she seemed to think of another idea when she picked it up and raised the corners of her lips icily. She then signaled for Yuanyuan to come over and whispered something into her ear.
Yuanyuan’s eyes lit up. She hurriedly replied in a flattering manner, “Jiaojiao, that’s a good idea. This way, everyone would find out that she’s wearing your discarded clothes. Watch and see. Just leave this matter to me.”
After they got back to the car, Chu Ningyi watched as Shui Anluo threw the dress to the back and did not spare it a second glance.
The driver started the car and Chu Ningyi reached out to touch the box. “Don’t you like it?”
“Of course not. However, Shui Anjiao loves to imitate me and will certainly not be able to resist wearing the same outfit. She will then accuse me of imitating her during the party. The more she does this, the more I won’t let her get away with it. I simply won’t wear this dress.” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth as she spoke.
Chu Ningyi reached out to stroke her head but he did not say anything more.
However, they saw He Xiaoran once they arrived home. At that moment, He Xiaoran was playing with the little darling. This was also the first time Shui Anluo had seen a smile on He Xiaoran’s face. However, her expression immediately turned ugly when she saw them return.
“I can see that a broken leg can’t stop you from going out,” He Xiaoran chided angrily.
Shui Anluo felt that sentence had been directed at her so she only looked down and remained silent.
“And you, you knew that his leg is compromised yet you took him out anyway. Shui Anluo, is your brain as immature as you?”
Alright, Shui Anluo felt that she had overimagined things. This was the actual scolding which was directed towards her. This ex-mother-in-law of hers has a really high standard in scolding others but what does her age have anything to do with her brain?
Chu Ningyi gently patted Shui Anluo’s hand and looked at his mother, “Are you so bored at home that you had to come over here to let out your frustrations?”
He Xiaoran glared at her son before finally turning her gaze towards Shui Anluo and glanced over at the box on the sofa. “I had Jim design this for you. Don’t embarrass me when you go out tonight,” said He Xiaoran before she picked her bag up and left. She was cool and elegant indeed.
Shui Anluo watched as her ex-mother-in-law left before she carefully patted herself on the chest.
“Are you that afraid of her?”
“Of course I am. In the past, whenever you weren’t around, she would always come over and make me learn this learn that…” Shui Anluo said and suddenly shut her mouth. She smiled awkwardly, her brain has indeed short-circuited again. That was his mother and she was actually complaining about her.
