Chu Ningyi’s hand on his lap shook. He quickly looked at her from the side.

“Even if he’s awake, can you bear to have him start work immediately?” Chu Ningyi tapped his fingers and frowned.

The important thing was, her father really was awake. Even if Shui Anluo could not bear it, he would not start work.

Uh…

Shui Anluo was shaken, that was true.

“Uncle Liu is a very nice person, I’ve watched him follow my father ever since I was young. Besides, he was able to follow him all the way to his position as the vice director. I could see how important he was to my father,” Shui Anluo seriously explained. She meant that he could rest assured.

Shui Anluo moved forward to lay on Chu Ningyi’s lap as her hands caught her son’s tiny hands which were trying to grab his little rice bowl. She looked at Chu Ningyi and said, “Did you start planning for the tour route in Provence long ago?”

Chu Ningyi raised his brow. “You can say that.”

Shui Anluo turned away and looked at his desk even though the back of the sofa was blocking her view and she could not see anything.

Chu Ningyi stroked her head as he rubbed a corner of his forehead with the other. Luckily, she had not asked too much about her father.

However, he had to tell her about the matter soon. Once this ball grows bigger and explodes, it would be futile even if he had explained.

“Luoluo, is your father very important to you?” Chu Ningyi suddenly asked. “After all, he had once…”

Abandoned you.

Shui Anluo’s body stiffened and she let the little darling off, allowing him to bite her breast through her shirt. Luckily, her clothes were in the way so it had not hurt. Instead, the little darling frowned in annoyance. It tasted bad.

“I don’t know. Mother said that if there’s anyone in this world who loves me more than her, it’s Father. He had done all that a year ago because he had been too bothered by the prospect that I wasn’t his daughter so he lost his senses,” Shui Anluo softly replied.

Long Manyin had said that? That perceptive woman actually knew everything but she had refused to say a thing.

“Why did you suddenly ask this?” Shui Anluo asked curiously but picked the little darling up at the next second and sat up. She looked at Chu Ningyi worriedly. “Are you saying that my father…”

“No, I was just asking. After all, he had treated you that way in the past,” Chu Ningyi calmly explained, then got up to pour some water.

Shui Anluo pursed her lips as her heart filled with worry. If that really was the case, why would Chu Ningyi ask that question?

“Are you saying that my father…” Has something happened to him? However, she could not bring herself to say those words.

“It’s nothing, it’s just that Soaring Distance Technologies had been brought up during today’s meeting so I just asked.” Chu Ningyi sipped his water and walked over. “Now, can you tell me what happened this afternoon?”

Uh…

Shui Anluo lowered her head. He still remembered that.

Chu Ningyi walked over and sat next to her again. This time, however, he did not intend to let her off.

Shui Anluo believes that Chu Ningyi was nothing like how he had been in the past. He had been someone who did not care or ask her anything. Even if she had suffered extreme grief, he could pretend as if he had not seen a thing.

“I ran into Wei Yuanyuan.” Shui Anluo helped the little darling up. She held his little arms and let him stand on her lap. “After we bumped into her in the emporium, she said she had seen the news and seemed to have been greatly irritated. Besides, we had gone to her husband’s emporium today so we ended up fighting.”
