The corners of Shui Anluo’s mouth twitched. ‘Director Chu, why do you always remember to attack me at any time?’

‘Do you really love me so much?’

As she watched Wei Yuanyuan flee, Shui Anluo slowly got up and walked over to pick up the bag that Wei Yuanyuan had thrown onto the floor. She took the clothes out and looked at the label. She then looked up and glanced at Chu Ningyi. “Is the Wei family very rich?”

“Rich?” Chu Ningyi raised his brow. He seemed to be asking her to define the term ‘rich’.

“Of course, please don’t use yourself as a benchmark, Director Chu.” Shui Anluo grinned. If he were the benchmark, everyone in ‘A’ City would be paupers.

Chu Ningyi nodded. “Probably, just upstarts.”

“I remembered that her father wasn’t very nice to her,” Shui Anluo said and showed the clothes that were priced at more than ten thousand dollars to Chu Ningyi.

Chu Ningyi leaned against the clothes rack and looked at Shui Anluo curiously. “Her father had married her off to a sixty-year-old man. That old man is considered to be quite wealthy.”

Chu Ningyi finished speaking and Shui Anluo promptly dropped the clothes on the floor and gulped. If Director Chu says that the man was wealthy, he would not be an average rich guy. However, it was the fact that he was over sixty years old that almost shocked her to death.

“No need to be suspicious, that old man is older than her grandfather. Besides, he had apparently been married several times before and all of them were no older than twenty.” Chu Ningyi calmly explained. “Logically speaking, you should know all this since you’ve grown up in this circle.”

“I don’t know about this, my mother never told me about these things. Besides, she wouldn’t have let me get involved in this either,” Shui Anluo said, feeling no pity for the clothes on the floor. She marched back to the sofa and continued to rest.

Chu Ningyi paused. Even though the Shui family was nothing compared to the Chu family, they were still considered an elite family. In this circle, the wife of the elite family would utilize her daughter as a tree of wealth because she could use her in a marriage alliance. Previously, he had thought of Shui Anluo in this manner but now, it seems that Long Manyin actually had intentions of distancing Shui Anluo from this circle.

Long Manyin, that ex-mother-in-law of his. Despite having left, she had sent Luo Xuan over and did not trust him completely.

If there was any woman in this world who deserves his admiration, it was probably Long Manyin.

“She actually agreed to marry an old man?” Shui Anluo felt disgusted at the thought of sleeping next to an old man.

Chu Ningyi chuckled and did not say anything. Instead, he instructed a staff member to wrap the clothes that he had chosen and send the parcel home for him later.

Shui Anluo’s large eyes were whirling around. However, she did not say anything in the end. Instead, she followed Chu Ningyi and left the place.

However, as she was leaving, she turned around once again and looked at the clothes on the floor. Her eyes flashed with confusion as she wondered if a life of luxury was more important than happiness?

One’s life at eighteen to nineteen years happens to be the best time of their life yet this girl had married a man who could be her grandfather all for the sake of money.

Shui Anluo trembled and did not think about it anymore.

Chu Ningyi led Shui Anluo into the elevator. No one else was in there and Chu Ningyi pressed her entire body against the elevator wall as he softly whispered in her ear, “Don’t you think you’re pretty lucky? You were married off at nineteen as well but the person you married is a few thousand times better than the one she had married.”

Shui Anluo blinked. “Director Chu, I’m still single.”

She was already divorced so she was considered to be single.

Chu Ningyi raised his brow. “Are you reminding me to remarry you sooner?”

“No!” Shui Anluo crossed her arms and rejected him.
