Maid Yu gently patted Shui Anluo’s shoulder. “Consider it a sacrifice for the Young Master. Besides, didn’t the Madam say that she’d wait for your wound to heal?” Maid Yu sent Shui Anluo a meaningful look as she spoke.

This time, Shui Anluo immediately understood Maid Yu’s subtle gesture. She reached out and wrapped her arm around Maid Yu’s waist. “I always knew that you’re the best, Maid Yu.”

Chu Mobai was waiting in the car for He Xiaoran when she arrived downstairs.

“How was it?”

“That child is a good child. Her heart does ache for others. She even knew how to protect Maid Yu when I scolded her. I just can’t accept her constant string of disasters.” When He Xiaoran heard from her niece that Chu Ningyi had not gone to the office because Shui Anluo had gotten hurt again, she had felt agitated. After all. this was not the first time her son had missed work.

Chu Mobai patted his wife’s hand and asked the chauffeur to start the car. “Alright, the child’s already injured. She didn’t mean to do it. Besides, didn’t you use to think that our son was working too hard? Isn’t this a good thing now? He knows how to take care of his home and knows how to take a break.”

“You’re certainly accepting. I know that once you feel at ease, you’ll…” As she was speaking, the hand on the back of her hand was suddenly removed much to her chagrin. “Mobai, I wasn’t…”

“I know, it’s fine. Let’s go home,” said Chu Mobai as he slowly closed his eyes to rest.

He Xiaoran lowered her head, feeling vexed. How could she have forgotten that this subject was taboo?

Just as He Xiaoran was feeling vexed, Chu Mobai held her hand again but did not open his eyes.

Meanwhile, the schedule for the Chu Group’s Provence tour route has been launched. The early-stage commercial was also complete. It showcased Shui Anluo and the little darling’s pictures during their trip to Provence. Chu Ningyi had made several rare appearances but every time he did, he would cause a downloading spree.

Unfortunately, he never appeared alone and there were only three pictures of him. One featured him pushing his son’s stroller with the little darling inside, the other featured him holding Shui Anluo in his arms and it was clear that someone had taken the picture for them. The last one featured all three as a family. Shui Anluo had her arm around his and was snuggled against his shoulder as the little darling sat on his daddy’s shoulders, wearing a large hat.

Feng Feng watched the commercial on television as he lounged in Chu Ningyi’s office. “Isn’t this good enough? Must I come along too?”

Chu Ningyi wrote some comments on a document. He gave it to his secretary then got up. “These pictures are meant for the early stage of the campaign. We’ll need you and Yuan Jiayi for an on-location shoot for the later stage,” Chu Ningyi explained as he walked over to turn the television off. “Come to my place for dinner tonight, your sister-in-law has something to discuss with you.”

“No offense but I’m scared of that ancestor of yours. She’s a walking disaster,” Feng Feng replied calmly.

“That’s fine then. Apparently, she has also invited Qiao Yaruan.” Chu Ningyi turned to leave as he mentioned this.

‘Qiao Yaruan?’

Feng Feng was shocked. He had not seen that little girl for a good few days. Besides, that little girl seems to be living such an unrestrained life, how could he let her live with such freedom?

“I’ll go. Whoever said that I wouldn’t?”

“Your sister-in-law is a walking disaster.”

“Just a slip of the tongue, just a slip of the tongue. My sister-in-law is definitely your lucky star. Look at the results from this campaign, she’s going to be a national superstar,” said Feng Feng immediately.

He was not lying. Shui Anluo was the kind of girl who looks average but the more one looks at her, one would realize that she was extremely attractive.

Chu Ningyi had taken most of these photos himself. No one knows Shui Anluo’s beauty more than him.

Hence, she had looked beautifully moving in every picture. He could never deny this to his discerning eyes.
