Shui Anluo blinked at Qiao Yaruan. ‘Take a good look, here’s someone who’s equally clueless.’

 “To avoid suspicion!” Chu Ningyi calmly replied.

 It was not a question of it being necessary but it was to avoid suspicion.

 He did not want to be involved with her so he wanted to avoid suspicion.

 Yuan Jiayi clenched her fists on her lap because of his answer.

 “Your man is truly formidable.” Qiao Yaruan whispered into Shui Anluo’s ear.

 “He has to be,” Shui Anluo replied contentedly. Her Director Chu had put some effort into this. As long as his venomous tongue’s merciless attacks were not directed at her, everything he said always sounded good to her.

 “I’ve used up all of your patience, haven’t I?” Yuan Jiayi asked sorrowfully. Lin Qianchen and Lan Xin had run into issues one after the other so she had thought about this long ago. The reason why she had not run into a disaster had been entirely because of her father.

 “Yes.” Chu Ningyi stood with his hands behind his back. He only turned around to look at Yuan Jiayi after she spoke. “This is the last time.”

 Yuan Jiayi took a deep breath and held herself back from crying.

 However, she ultimately closed her eyes and tears began to stream down her face. Her tears fell like her own personality, elegant yet pitiful.

 It was just unfortunate that the person she cares about did not care about her tears.

 “If I had not gone down the wrong path in the beginning, would she never have existed in our lives?” Yuan Jiayi asked in a hoarse voice.

 “It’s destined by fate, she’s the only one who can ever be my wife.” Chu Ningyi looked down at the weeping woman. “Maybe I had been mistaken in the beginning too, gratitude and love are entirely different things.”

 “You were wrong but I was sincere.” Yuan Jiayi loudly objected.

 “I don’t think that your sincerity was a betrayal. You had betrayed yourself for the sake of your career, Jiayi. You’ll know better than me whether you truly felt the desire of love for me,” Chu Ningyi said in a deep voice.

 Yuan Jiayi shut her eyes and her tears flowed like a broken faucet. “So you’ve determined that she’s the one?”

 “Yes.”

 That one word shattered all her hope.

 “You should leave. I understand. I’ll no longer try to force something that doesn’t belong to me. From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other.” Yuan Jiayi slowly spoke as her tears fell on the back of her hand.

 Shui Anluo stared at the pair. She then sighed and looked at Qiao Yaruan. “Let’s go back to the hospital.”

 “Aren’t you going to keep watching? Aren’t you scared that she might throw herself at your man?”

 Shui Anluo shook her head and hugged Qiao Yaruan as she left. “Actually, I’ve gained a complete victory, right?”

 Chu Ningyi looked up at the two figures who were walking away radiantly and could not help but shake his head as he chucked. That little girl had even dared to wave at them from the back.

 Shui Anluo hugged Qiao Yaruan and waved as she left. She had emerged as the victor but had put her life on the line to confirm their love.

 Luckily, this was the outcome that she wanted though it was a little tragic.

 Chu Ningyi did not go home immediately after leaving Yuan Jiayi’s neighborhood. He went to see someone else instead — Mo Lusu.

 It may not be a good thing to keep things from others and this was something that Shui Anluo had taught him. Wounds may hurt but they would only heal when placed under the sun.

 She had dared to face the issue concerning her father so Mo Lusu should learn to face what had happened that year. After all, they could not hide it forever.

 “Young Master.” Uncle Chu got down from the car and watched Chu Ningyi as he approached him. “Your cousin just called and said that he would wait for you at the same old place.”

 Chu Ningyi raised his brow. Perfect timing.
