Shui Anluo sat at the corner of the bed and immediately called Qiao Yaruan.

Her call was picked up almost immediately.

“Woman, I never thought that you’d actually look presentable after dressing up. Indeed, clothes do make the woman.” Qiao Yaruan clicked her tongue.

“You said that you want to come so how do you plan on going?” Shui Anluo felt a little regretful that she never accepted the invite that Shui Anjiao had given her. That way, she could have given it to Qiao Yaruan.

“Hermits have their ways. You just wait inside for my grand arrival.”

“Right...” Shui Anluo replied flatteringly. “Have you gotten used to staying at my place? You don’t know how to cook or clean but my place is a convenient spot for takeaways.”

“Not bad really, I slept all the way until daytime,” replied Qiao Yaruan. She suddenly remembered something. “By the way, weren’t an old couple staying opposite your house? They were banging around for a long time last night.”

“That’s right, their child is overseas but the old madam is noisy whenever she throws out the garbage.” Shui Anluo lay on the bed as she replied exasperatedly. “I want to go home too, go home, go home!”

“Oh please, aren’t you at home now?” Qiao Yaruan said then got off the bed to wash up.

“This isn’t my home. Besides, I think I was hit on again today. This can’t go on, it can’t go on.” Shui Anluo felt that she could no longer remain calm when she remembered the air thud and the bed thud from yesterday plus the way Chu Ningyi had helped her to put on the necklace just now.

“Oh man, you still manage to get hit on? If you’re so great, why don’t you hit on him in return?” Qiao Yaruan said as she bent down to find a new toothbrush from the cupboard. “I’m going to use the toothbrush in your cupboard.”

“Go ahead, there’re only new ones in there. You can use any one of them,” replied Shui Anluo. She then sat up again. “I don’t think I can stay as a sitting duck, I’ll have to hit on him a few times too.”

“Yes, you have to hit on him too. Good luck to you. I hope you won’t get a backlash and end up getting hit on again.” Qiao Yaruan placed her phone on a frame and began to brush her teeth.

“Hey, Empress Dowager, have a little faith in me.”

“Alright, I have faith in you. Go ahead, little Luozi, I await your good news,” replied Qiao Yaruan as she brushed her teeth.

“Even though I feel that you’re making fun of me, I’ve decided that I’ll make you apologize to me for your mockery towards me today.” Shui Anluo clenched her fist and scoffed.

“Alright then, work hard. I’m going to brush my teeth.” Qiao Yaruan chuckled.

Shui Anluo put the phone down when she saw the time on the phone’s display screen. Even though she had been ridiculed, she has to hit back.

“How do you plan on flirting back?”

Just as Shui Anluo had secretly made her mind up, the man’s melodious voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.

“Mother of...” Shui Anluo gasped and nearly threw her phone on the ground. She then stared in shock at the one-legged man at the doorway.

Shui Anluo looked down and slowly stared at his legs. Suddenly, she felt as if her ex-mother-in-law was right about one thing – why could he not pause and recuperate after getting his leg broken? What was he doing at the door of her bedroom at this time, anyway?

It was fine if he had run to her room but he had even eavesdropped on her phone conversation. It does not matter if he had heard it all but he would actually blurt everything out so freely.

‘Director Chu, is that a good thing to do?’

Chu Ningyi did not seem to feel that he had done anything wrong. Instead, he slowly inched towards the bed. Before Shui Anluo could get off the bed, he grabbed her arm with one hand and pressed the other on the bed. He smiled. “You haven’t answered me. How do you plan on flirting back?”
