The Bumpy Road of Marriage: The Ex-Wife Is Expecting

Shui Anluo turned back. ‘ Is that Mo Lusu who’s standing at the door?’

He was dressed in a lab coat but it was clear that he had just rushed over. He had not even managed to change his clothes.

“Doctor Mo?” Lin Qianchen frowned.

“Why aren’t you at your hospital, Doctor Mo? Do you have so much free time that you can come to our hospital and stick your nose into our business?” The director rose to his feet. The Mo Group and the Chu Group’s hospital have always been competitors so the director was not very courteous to him.

“Senior Brother,” murmured Shui Anluo. She felt a sort of dependence towards her senior brother who had always been nice to her. Her eyes naturally reddened when she saw him in her time of need.

Mo Lusu walked in and stood next to Shui Anluo. He then patted her on the shoulder to pacify her.

“Director Cheng, the hospital is a place where human life is beyond value. We have to be extremely detailed in everything that we do. How can you conclude that this was my junior sister’s fault before any investigation?” Mo Lusu asked calmly. His voice was not loud or soft but it held an assertiveness which could not be ignored.

“What are you implying, Doctor Mo?” Lin Qianchen asked with a furrowed brow.

“It is just as I’ve said,” Mo Lusu replied as he lowered his head to look at Shui Anluo. “My hospital is looking for interns, why don’t you come with me?”

“Doctor Mo, don’t be an intolerable bully. This is still my hospital.” The director was enraged by his condescending attitude.

His employees have been poached before but he had never seen poaching of such a level. Shui Anluo quietly praised her senior brother in her heart.

However, how could she leave at a time like this? If she left now, was that not a silent confession that she had been in the wrong?

Meanwhile, Chu Ningyi was looking at the forms in his hands in the quiet ward.

“How’s the situation?” Chu Ningyi did not look up and asked straight away.

“Director Yao has decided to retract his lawsuit. However, Director Chu, if we sign this contract with him, we will only lose money.” A manager who was standing next to his bed explained once again.

Chu Ningyi signed it anyway and handed the forms to the manager. “Sometimes, we need to spend some money in order to teach a lesson,” replied Chu Ningyi. He saw Uncle Chu walk in and waved his hand to dismiss the manager.

The manager held out his hand and accepted the documents deferentially. Had the director footed this bill because of the former madam’s mistake?

Once the manager stepped out, Uncle Chu walked to his bedside and said, “We’ve looked carefully into the matter. Someone had misled Miss Shui and she had no idea about the confidentiality agreement.”

Chu Ningyi did not react much as he had expected this.

Once Uncle Chu had finished saying his piece and was about to head out, he suddenly paused at the doorway and looked at Chu Ningyi. “In regards to this matter, Doctor Lin had not even mentioned anything to Miss Shui about treating the report with care. Actually, Doctor Lin had not mentioned a single thing before she left yesterday.”

Chu Ningyi’s eyes darkened after Uncle Chu said this.

Uncle Chu nodded and turned to leave.

Chu Ningyi knitted his brows together but when he looked up again, he saw Uncle Chu reentering his room. “Is there anything else?”

“I just saw Mister Mo heading over here. He’s now speaking to the hospital’s director. It seems that he’s standing up for Miss Shui.” After saying this, Uncle Chu finally left.

‘Mo Lusu?’

Chu Ningyi slowly relaxed his brows before reaching out to press the call button near his headboard.

It had been a year since they last saw each other but he has no idea when his ex-wife had begun to draw so much attention. Someone has even begun to steal her away from him too.
