Bai Yehan arranged the agreements. All you need is Shui Anluos signature and these agreements will come into effect.

Chu Ningyi nodded.

Now that youve mentioned it, do you really not need me to draw up a marriage agreement for you?

You can leave now.

Youre the one burning bridges here, said Bai Yehan as he got up and straightened his clothes. He then said, I wish you both all the best. Im going on vacation so please dont look for me during this period of time.

After Bai Yehan left, the sky soon poured with heavy rain.

Chu Ningyi turned around and the look in his eyes deepened.

Its raining again. Shui Anluo had just returned back from the house call. She flopped down to lean on the table as she watched the heavy rain outside.

This summer rain has been happening quite frequently. Its really not a peaceful summer. Qiao Yaruan clicked her tongue. Howre you going home this afternoon?

Public transport, I dont have the money to call a taxi.

Poor thing, let me keep you company on the way home. Qiao Yaruan clicked her tongue again. She knew about Shui Anluos current predicament. She has rejected Chu Ningyi so she would naturally not take his money.

She was a little girl whose mother was not by her side. Even though it was natural for Chu Ningyi to take care of the little darling and she was also freeloading off food, drink, and lodging at the Chu home, she would never ask Chu Ningyi for a single cent.

What about the place youre staying at? Shui Anluo looked up and asked. Youre only staying for a month, is it that difficult to find a room? Shui Anluo thought it over and smacked her thigh. How could I have forgotten, you can stay at my place. My mother isnt home so you can go there.

Let me ask this then, do you have the keys?

What are you talking about? How can I not have the keys? Thats my home, Shui Anluo said and flipped her bag around before she pulled out a s.h.i.+ny bunch of keys. See, you can stay there tomorrow.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, youve finally done something that isnt so stupid. Qiao Yaruan reached out and accepted the keys. Does your mom leave any money at home?

Why would there be any money left in my home? My mother has probably taken all her money with her on her vacation. She was so eager to have sold me off to Chu Ningyi, said Shui Anluo. Once again, she felt as though her mother had done this on purpose.

Alright, poor little thing. Qiao Yaruan could not help but admire Long Manyins wisdom to have actually burned all her boats.

Once work has finished for the day, Qiao Yaruan accompanied Shui Anluo on the public bus. The bus was pretty crowded and they had to squeeze through for a moment before discovering a small gap of empty s.p.a.ce near the back.

Actually, I dont think you should judge what someone thinks based on this matter. Maybe he has suddenly found you adorable? Qiao Yaruan held onto the handrail above her with one hand as she spoke.

Why dont you just say that hes suddenly found me attractive? Shui Anluo rolled her eyes.

Qiao Yaruan heard what Shui Anluo said and her expression turned bitter. She only spoke up after a long while. Dont make things difficult for me.

Im absolutely terrified of you, Shui Anluo retorted angrily. Just as she wanted to smack her, the bus came to an abrupt stop and caused Shui Anluo to almost fall. It was a good thing that Qiao Yaruan managed to catch her in time.

However, Shui Anluo noticed a pickpocket in the front as she looked up. Just as she was about to speak up, Qiao Yaruan pulled her back. Dont say anything.

Qiao Yaruans body tightened and even her face has turned very pale. The grip she held on Shui Anluos wrist was so tight that her wrist almost felt like it was breaking.

Yaruan, whats wrong? Shui Anluo frowned from the pain and stared at Qiao Yaruan though she did not swat her hand away.
