Chapter 57: The Slap
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shui Moyun’s eyes were fixed on Shui Anluo. Once, he had seen her walking out from school from afar. Now, it seed that her chubby little face was gone and was replaced by slim and delicate features. She looked a lot like her mother now.
Shui Anluo tried her best to straighten her back as he asured her up. She wanted to prove to Shui Moyun that she was soone who could stand on her own two feet even without him.
“How did you manage to find the ti to co here, Director Shui? If you’re here to visit , there’s no need. After all, it’s not like I’m severely ill.” Chu Ningyi saw that Shui Anluo was still standing there like a sassy little lioness so he limped to her and put his hand on her shoulder.
Shui Anluo’s tense body shivered. She lifted her head to look at the man next to her but Chu Ningyi only continued to stare at Shui Moyun.
When Shui Moyun heard Chu Ningyi’s words, he finally turned his gaze from Shui Anluo to Chu Ningyi.
“I’m here to take Luoluo ho. After all, staying with you isn’t a long term plan,” replied Shui Moyun calmly.
“What do you an, Uncle? If I rember correctly, you had personally announced that you and Luoluo have severed your father-daughter relationship. Who are you to take her ho now?” Chu Ningyi spoke steadily and wrapped his arm around Shui Anluo’s tense body. He then pulled her around and sat down on the bed with her.
“Ningyi, don’t forget who you are either. You’ve already divorced her yet this issue has now beco the talk of the town,” said Shui Moyun and his voice filled with annoyance. “Luoluo, co ho with .”
‘Luoluo, co ho with !’
When she had been chased out of the house, she had dearly wished that her father would suddenly appear one day and hold her hand as he said this to her: ‘Luoluo, co ho with ’.
Now, however, she, Shui Anluo, no longer wanted that.
“Mister Shui, I’m sorry but we aren’t that close. You better address as Miss Shui.” Before Chu Ningyi could speak, Shui Anluo straightened her backbone and answered.
“Luoluo, you must co ho with .”
“What do you an when you say ‘must’?” Shui Anluo laughed impudently. “Is it because I’m in your daughter’s way? That’s true, she likes Chu Ningyi and I do seem to be in her way.”
Shui Anluo spoke softly but her voice was heart-breakingly desolate.
He was only kindly taking her ho because she was in the way of his daughter marrying into the Chu family. How ironic. She had been his daughter too yet she received such unfair treatnt.
Shui Moyun’s gaze darkened. It was unclear whether this was because Shui Anluo had pointed out his intentions or because that was simply not his intention.
“Mister Shui, I have no intention of being affiliated with you in any way but you have caused trouble for ti and again. Today, I’d liked to express very clearly that from now on, whatever Shui Anjiao wants, I’m going to take it away from her,” Shui Anluo slowly said.
Smack!
“Shui Anluo!”
The ringing sound of the slap followed by Shui Moyun’s angry roar echoed through the ward.
Chu Ningyi rose to his feet at that mont. He ignored the throbbing pain in his right leg as he looked at Shui Anluo who had just been slapped and angrily retorted, “Don’t you think you’ve crossed a line here, Uncle?”
At that mont, Shui Anluo was still dazed by that slap. Her ears rang and her face felt numb. However, the most painful part of all was the area around her heart.
