Shui Anluo brought the little darling along to buy ingredients. The little darling babbled and gurgled the entire way. Shui Anluo did not understand him but he was rather obedient. His little face only looked annoyed and bored at the market though he did not cry or fuss. After all, this child did not like bustling places. He was just like Chu Ningyi in that aspect.

“We’ll have stewed eggplant with gravy today, okay?”

“Babble…” The little darling frowned. He did not like the sound of that.

Shui Anluo smiled. This little guy would always furrow his little brows whenever he heard the word ‘eggplant’.

Shui Anluo teased the little darling as she walked home.

“Ya yi…” The little darling suddenly squealed excitedly, smiling and gesturing to the front with his little fingers. He had seen his daddy.

Shui Anluo’s gaze followed the direction of his little finger and stared at the man who was standing at the banister downstairs. Was that not Chu Ningyi?

He had his back against them and his head was down as he fiddled with his lighter. He suddenly straightened up and looked back at Shui Anluo who was standing not too far away from him.

She was wearing a long white dress but because the weather had gotten cold, she had pulled on a small coat of around the same color. She carried her child with one arm as she held several other bags with the other. Chu Ningyi had made a visual estimate that the bags contained ingredients. She had gone to buy ingredients!

When he was at a loss and at his wits’ end, she actually had the mood to shop for ingredients?

Shui Anluo watched as he walked over and turned her gaze away.

“Shui Anluo…” Chu Ningyi spoke up and stopped in front of her. He did not know if it was due to his drunken state last night but his voice was particularly hoarse.

Shui Anluo looked up indifferently and stared at him with an icy glare, similar to the ones he had previously used. “Is there a problem, Director Chu?”

Chu Ningyi’s frown deepened. Her cold demeanor caused him to feel even more irritable.

However, Shui Anluo’s heart was blossoming with happiness. It feels really good to talk like this. No wonder Chu Ningyi would always pull up his high and mighty icy exterior.

“I…”

“If there’s nothing else, Director Chu, I have to go home now. Maid Yu is waiting for these ingredients to cook a meal.” Shui Anluo did not wait for him to finish his sentence and immediately walked past him to leave.

“Maid Yu?” Chu Ningyi frowned. That explained why he could not find Maid Yu this morning and why the little darling was now in her arms. Maid Yu had gone over.

“Oh… Right.” Shui Anluo turned around to look at Chu Ningyi. “There’s one more thing that I need to tell you, Director Chu. Maid Yu says that she’s responsible for taking care of the little darling so she won’t be going back to your place now.” Shui Anluo smiled when she had finished speaking and turned around to leave again.

Chu Ningyi suddenly grabbed her wrist when she turned around and stopped her from leaving.

Shui Anluo looked down at the large hand around her wrist. The joints of his fingers were well defined, slender and fair. These hands could produce clouds with one turn and rain with the other. These hands have never cared about whether anyone lived or died, for example… Her!

“Let me go…”

‘Thank goodness he allowed me to see him as he is. There’s no longer any need for me to fear or try to please him.’

Chu Ningyi heard the icy tone in her voice and the grip in his hand tightened. He then circled in front of her and spoke in a somber voice, “I’ve said it before, I can guarantee that no accident will ever befall you!”

Shui Anluo heard the frown and irritation in his voice but smiled instead. However, her smile was filled with sarcasm. “Can you guarantee that I’ll never be afraid?”

Shui Anluo’s voice was soft but every syllable was crystal clear.
