Chapter 610: Weakness
Feng Feng’s eyes darkened and he did not answer.
“Are you going to eat? If not, you should leave.” Chu Ningyi finally spoke and the first thing that he said was to order his guest to leave.
Shui Anluo gently pursed her lips. Before anyone could say anything, the phone that she had left in the living room rang. Maid Yu hurriedly brought it to her. Shui Anluo thanked her before answering the call.
“h.e.l.lo…”
“Luoluo, are you free to come to the hospital for a while?” Mo Lusu’ voice at the other end was low and deep.
Shui Anluo was shaken and the tone in his voice caused her to feel unsettled.
“Has something happened to my father?” Shui Anluo quickly asked but accidentally toppled her bowl.
Chu Ningyi looked up and his gaze slowly darkened.
Shui Moyun, it was the topic that he had been trying to avoid.
What was Mo Lusu planning?
“I just realized that there were still some issues in the report from Uncle’s previous tests. Do you have the time to come to the hospital?” Mo Lusu asked in a deep voice.
“Alright, I’ll come over right now,” Shui Anluo replied as her hand holding the phone trembled.
“What happened?” Qiao Yaruan asked in concern.
Fragments of the bowl and her chopsticks were lying on the ground, scattered in pieces.
Shui Anluo’s face was drained of color. She understood the tone in her Senior Brother’s voice too well.
“Senior Brother says that they had found a problem in my father’s test report,” Shui Anluo replied in a trembling voice. She supported herself with the stool as she got up and tried to leave.
Chu Ningyi reached out and grabbed her arm with a tight frown.
“Chu Ningyi, let me go.” Shui Anluo knew that he did not want her to meet Senior Brother so she had naturally thought that this was what he had meant when he grabbed her.
However, this was about her father so her tone to Chu Ningyi had been somewhat chilly.
Chu Ningyi tightened his grip around her wrist. “I’ll ask Uncle Chu to get the car,” he said with a frown.
How could he possibly let her go alone at a time like this?
Besides, Mo Lusu clearly knew that Shui Moyun was missing. Where had that report come from?
Shui Anluo could only nod when she heard Chu Ningyi’s response.
Uncle Chu quickly brought the car downstairs. Qiao Yaruan followed Shui Anluo to the hospital out of concern for her. Feng Feng had to leave first because of work.
Shui Anluo did not say a thing throughout the entire drive to the hospital. Chu Ningyi got down from the car and was just about to carry her down when his phone suddenly rang.
He looked down at the display on his screen and his frown deepened. Finally, he got up and looked at Qiao Yaruan. “Help her inside, I’ll come over in a bit,” said Chu Ningyi as he stepped aside to answer the call.
“h.e.l.lo…” Chu Ningyi answered in a low voice. His expression sank even further after the person on the other end said his piece. His eyes followed Shui Anluo’s back as she walked into the hospital.
“Uncle, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. What did I do?” Chu Ningyi smiled icily and his voice contained an unreserved sense of disdain.
“Chu Ningyi, I see what you’re trying to do. Do you really think that one person’s words can drive a wedge between my son and me?” The person on the other end sounded vicious.
“Drive a wedge between you and your son?” Chu Ningyi saw that Shui Anluo was gone and finally focused entirely on dealing with the person on the other end of the phone. “Uncle, is your so-called relations.h.i.+p the one where you had hidden the truth about what happened that year and turned him against his own maternal grandmother?”
“Chu Ningyi, stop. Don’t forget that you’re no longer someone without a weakness now. Or else…”
Beep… beep…
The call ended abruptly and Chu Ningyi looked down at his phone.
His weakness was Shui Anluo and the little darling.
