Shui Anluo lowered her head as she clenched and released her fists several times before she turned back to Chu Ningyi.
“That phone call was from Beautiful Brother, wasn’t it?” Shui Anluo asked seriously.
The bus and everything from that fateful day flashed across her mind. Her memories of when Chu Ningyi had said these words: ‘If he can’t move on, no one else can help him’, suddenly leaped into her mind.
Initially, when Chu Ningyi had revealed the matter concerning Feng Feng’s girlfriend on the bus, this was what he had said.
So does that mean that… Feng Feng had been Qirou’s boyfriend?
If her comprehension was accurate, then he and Qiao Yaruan…
The more Shui Anluo thought about this, the more she felt a shiver down her spine.
Chu Ningyi had told her not to let Qiao Yaruan get too close to Feng Feng. Was this his reminder to her?
Chu Ningyi walked over and raised his hand to stroke her head. “Don’t overthink it. Perhaps this was all a misunderstanding.”
Shui Anluo shook her head. She had connected the dots to the situation. This was definitely no misunderstanding.
Chu Ningyi noticed that something was not right with Shui Anluo. After he said a few words to the manager, he led Shui Anluo to the back of the resort.
As business would only officially begin in the afternoon, there were not a lot of people in the holiday resort at the moment. A lawn was situated behind the resort and it was currently the best season for green grass.
Chu Ningyi dragged Shui Anluo over. She waited for them to be alone before she shook Chu Ningyi’s hand away. “I need to tell the Empress Dowager,” Shui Anluo said as she began to leave.
“Luoluo…”
“Let go of me, he’s sick. How’s Yaruan involved in any of this? If he wants to avenge Qirou, he should hunt for the thief who had killed her. What kind of man is he to play with Yaruan’s feelings?” Shui Anluo said angrily.
“But if Qiao Yaruan hadn’t seen the thief, perhaps that wouldn’t have happened.” Chu Ningyi reached out and grabbed Shui Anluo’s arm before smoothly pressing her against his chest.
Shui Anluo struggled fiercely but could not get out of his firm arms. He refused to let go despite how angry she was.
Shui Anluo pursed her lips and tightened her grip around his back.
“Luoluo, Old Fourth is using the wrong methods but what can you achieve from telling Qiao Yaruan? Can you guarantee that Qiao Yaruan hasn’t fallen in love with Old Fourth?” Chu Ningyi muttered into her ear. “If her heart has moved towards Old Fourth, you would be the main culprit behind her agony.”
Shui Anluo gasped fiercely as if this was the only way to calm the bursting rage in her chest.
“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Shui Anluo gasped. If she had found out a little earlier, perhaps she could have stopped this.
However, she now recalled the scene she had witnessed outside her door last night and the fact that Qiao Yaruan had followed Feng Feng back. Knowing her temper, if Feng Feng was not special to her, she would have slapped him and left already.
“I only found out yesterday but it’s already too late,” Chu Ningyi said in a deep voice. “Now, all we can hope for is that Old Fourth will realize that he’s in the wrong.”
“To come around? Even if he does, Yaruan is still the one who ends up being hurt!” Shui Anluo exclaimed.
“What if he has fallen in love with Qiao Yaruan?” Chu Ningyi placed his hands on her shoulder and pushed her slightly away from his embrace to stare intently at her. “If he falls in love with Qiao Yaruan and realizes his mistake, this matter can be settled. If so, Qiao Yaruan will never have to find out about his original intention.”
