“… Mom, all the younger siblings are here. It doesn’t seem appropriate to discuss such a serious topic when we’re having dinner. Let’s change the topic.”
A hint of awkwardness appeared on Chu Zhe’s face. Why was the spotlight on him.
“Xiao Ning, are you willing to listen to this?” Mother Chu only smiled and asked for Chu Ning’s opinion.
“Of course, Mom. I’m very interested.” Chu Ning quickly nodded in response.
“Okay, Xiao Zhe, look. No one in the family is objecting to discussing this,” Mother Chu said solemnly, turning to look at Chu Zhe.
She selectively ignored Father Chu, Chu Jing, and Chu Huan.
“The girl is employed as a teacher. She doesn’t mind that our family is poor. Xiao Zhe, you have to seize this opportunity. You’re not young anymore. You don’t want me to worry about your life events, do you?”
Mother Chu sighed and said resentfully.
“Okay, Mom. I will try to contact her. As for whether she will talk to me, it’s beyond my control,” Chu Zhe said helplessly.
“That’s great. I will tell your Auntie Chen tonight. Tomorrow, you and her daughter will meet up and have a meal together,” Mother Chu said happily.
“Mom, otmorrow is Dad’s birthday,” Chu Zhe said, feeling vexed.
If he had known that it would be like this when he came back, he would have really reconsidered it.
“It’s okay. Xiao Ning won’t be home at noon tomorrow. Your dad can celebrate his birthday at night. Xiao Zhe, if you’re very compatible with that girl, it’s okay if you’re not home at night. Your dad won’t have any objections, right?” Mother Chu said and gently touched Father Chu.
“I don’t have any objections, no objections,” Father Chu said hurriedly after receiving Mother Chu’s meaningful glance, seemingly just returning to his senses.
Chu Zhe was speechless.
After dinner, Chu Ning was about to clear the dishes, but Mother Chu stopped her.
“I’ll do it. Xiao Ning, talk to your big brother a little longer. He won’t be staying at home for long this time. I don’t know when you two will next meet,” Mother Chu said with a smile.
“Okay, Mom. I’ll go out for a walk with Big Brother then.”
After saying that, Chu Ning walked to the living room. She looked at the depressed Chu Zhe and said, “Big Brother, let’s go out for a walk.”
“Okay, Xiao Ning,” Chu Zhe nodded in agreement.
He didn’t want to stay at home right then. Once Mother Chu had finished cleaning up, she would definitely talk to him again.
After a moment, the two quietly walked out of the gates of the neighborhood, neither speaking up.
Chu Zhe looked into the distance with a calm expression on his face, Chu Ning likewise.
They were both intelligent and were waiting for the other party to initiate the conversation.
The atmosphere remained silent.
After a while, Chu Ning opened her red lips slightly and said softly, “Big Brother, if you have any doubts, just ask me.”
Chu Ning knew what Chu Zhe was worried about. She had wanted to find an opportunity to clarify things with him. On some issues of principle, Chu Ning did not want to hide anything, especially when she had opened up and truly felt that she was part of the Chu family; these thoughts about confiding had always existed.
And Chu Zhe was the best person for her to talk to.
His IQ was higher than all the members of the Chu family except for Chu Ning. Sometimes, the thinking process of smart people was surprisingly consistent. If she separately told the same truths to Chu Zhe and Chu Huan, she would get two completely different reactions.
Only Chu Zhe would understand her current thoughts and additionally support her without hesitation.
“You know that I’m most worried about you,” Chu Zhe said quietly.
At this time, he regained his wisdom and knowledge.
“Big Brother, I’m fine. Where should I start?”
Chu Ning knew what Chu Zhe was worried about, and she did not plan to hide anything from him.
“Just say what you want to say. It’s fine if you don’t say anything, as long as you’re fine,” Chu Zhe replied.
“Okay, my first bucket of gold was earned from those students who needed extra-curricular tutoring. My tuition fees were very expensive, but the results were good, so they were willing to pay such a price, even though it was not much to their families.”
As Chu Ning spoke, she broke off a stalk of fountain grass by the side of the road and held it in her hand, swaying gently in the evening wind.
“It sounds good. The parents of Jingyuan High School are all very rich. This is the consensus of everyone in M City.”
Chu Zhe nodded in agreement.
