nMo Lusu was dressed in a white windbreaker. He stood at the doorway and was silhouetted against the sunlight outside.

nShui Anluo quietly picked her pillow up and covered herself completely with it. In Director Chu’s eyes, she was already a coward anyway so she might as well let him handle this.

nChu Ningyi only wanted to go to the washroom. He never expected so many things to happen at once so his mood plummeted immediately.

n

nMo Lusu walked in with a bag of fruits in his hand. He did not acknowledge Chu Ningyi and headed to the bed straight away. He bent down and pulled the covers down to check on Shui Anluo’s leg.

nChu Ningyi walked over and grabbed his hand. He pulled the covers back up and covered Shui Anluo’s leg again.

nMo Lusu’s hand stayed in the air for a moment before he slowly lowered it.

n“Is this how you take care of her? Ever since she’s gone back to you, she’s been injured more times in the past three months than the past twenty years,” Mo Lusu exclaimed in a somber tone.

n

n

nShui Anluo lowered her head and gave a thumbs-up to her senior brother internally. Only her senior brother understood her. This was the question she had wanted to ask but before she was interrupted.

nShe was now seriously considering if Chu Ningyi had done that on purpose.

nA desolate light flashed across Chu Ningyi’s eyes. Chu Ningyi slowly straightened his clothes out as he asked, “And so what?”

n‘Uh…’

n

n

nShui Anluo, who was hugging the pillow, paused. Her heart felt somewhat aggrieved, had he actually said ‘so what’?

nDoes he really believe that he had nothing to do with her current condition?

n“If we’re talking about the landslide incident, that had all been because of you. While I admit that the incident at the cemetery stairs had been my mistake, as for this incident, it was due to personal reasons so there’s no need for me to comment. As for the difference in severity between the landslide and the cemetery stairs, you only have to consider it yourself. Have you ever thought about it?”

nChu Ningyi’s icy voice lingered in the air for a long while before dissipating.

nShui Anluo slowly loosened her grip on the pillow.

nThat was right, Chu Ningyi had nothing to do with the landslide incident but she had subconsciously blamed him for it. That was unfair to him.

n

n

nMo Lusu clenched his fists. He never expected Chu Ningyi to retaliate this way.

n“But all this had happened after she went back to you.” Mo Lusu continued to object.

nChu Ningyi paused as he straightened his sleeves. He lifted his head and looked Mo Lusu in the eye. “This is a matter between me and her. It has nothing to do with you.”

nChu Ningyi had always been a high and mighty ruler. Even though they were cousins, the maturity and steadfastness from years of experience which were present in Chu Ningyi could not be seen in Mo Lusu.

nHence, at the end of the day, Mo Lusu was no match for Chu Ningyi. He was always destined to lose after several rounds.

nBecause he was in no position to speak.

nMo Lusu had been defeated and had to leave. Shui Anluo carefully pulled the pillow down. She did not know whether she should look at her senior brother or not, she did not know what else to say to him.

nChu Ningyi narrowed his eyes and stared at the blushing woman. He frowned as he started to say, “You…”

n

n

n“Weren’t you supposed to go to the washroom? Hurry up. If you hold your pee in too long, it’ll…”

n“Shui Anluo,” Chu Ningyi said with a dark expression. This little girl truly dares to say anything.

nShui Anluo pursed her lips. What would she not have the guts to say? They would talk about anything, be it large intestines, bladder, heart, liver or lungs back at the university.
