Chapter 314 - 314 Family
314 Family
Chu Jing was sitting opposite her with a smile on his face. He quietly listened to Chu Ning’s words and watched her go on until she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Chu Jing did not wake Chu Ning up. Instead, he tried his best to control the sound of his footsteps. He walked into Chu Ning’s room and took out her blanket. Only after he covered Chu Ning with it did Chu Jing walk back to his room.
Chu Ning’s sleep was exceptionally peaceful. Although she had only slept for less than an hour, she felt like a long time had passed when she woke up.
She looked at the time and saw that it was only six o’clock.
“Second Brother, I’m awake. You’re so sweet.” Chu Ning looked at the blanket covering her and felt a warm feeling flowing through her.
“Hmph, you’re really Second Brother’s good little sister. He really dotes on you to the high heavens. He even specially called me and Little Seven to tell us to open the door lightly when we come back as you’re sleeping in the living room!” Chu Huan said unhappily. Following Chu Ning’s calling out, Chu Huan and Chu Zhang walked out of Chu Jing’s room one after the other.
He had just finished his part-time job and was preparing to go home from the Soaring Cloud Group’s construction site when Chu Jing specially called to tell him to open the door gently when he returned as Chu Ning was sleeping…
“I’ve been working at the construction site for the whole day. It’s also very tough, okay?” Chu Huan ranted to himself.
Chu Zhang was the same, and Chu Jing had specially told him to go to the supermarket to buy some fresh ingredients as Chu Ning was back.
“Oh, really? Thank you, Fourth Brother, for not waking me up when you came back and letting me have a good sleep.” Chu Ning yawned and said with a smile.
“Hmph, I don’t know what you’ve been up to all day. You’re not in your third year yet, so you don’t have to study much,” Chu Huan mumbled.
“Xiao Ning, do you want some water? I’ll go get you a glass of water.” Chu Zhang looked at Chu Ning and asked.
“Thank you, Seventh Brother,” Chu Ning replied sweetly.
It was only in the Chu family that these older brothers were purely concerned about her, their younger sister, and their concern was unadulterated by any benefits.
“You guys should just spoil her!” Chu Huan sat down on the sofa angrily after he finished speaking. He took the remote control and turned on the TV.
“Fourth Brother, are you tired today?” Chu Ning looked at Chu Huan and smiled as she drank the water.
After working at the construction site for a day, he must have been very dirty, but Chu Huan looked relatively clean. Chu Ning guessed that he must have changed his clothes as he didn’t want the Chu family to know that he had done such dirty work.
“You don’t have to pretend to be kind. What does this have to do with you?” Chu Huan glanced at Chu Ning and said in disdain.
“Alright, since Fourth Brother doesn’t want to answer, then so be it.” Chu Ning spread out her hands and made a regretful expression.
Chu Ning was already thinking about how to find a suitable job for Chu Huan. It was too inefficient to earn money with physical strength, and it was not suitable for him to do it for the long-term.
Chu Ning didn’t intend to tell Chu Huan the truth, as it might hurt his self-esteem and sense of achievement.
She walked into the kitchen after drinking the water. After taking a nap to recover her energy, Chu Ning decided to prepare a delicious meal for the Chu family. Recently, she had put all her energy into her career, and cooking made Chu Ning feel the joys of daily life once more.
After a while, Chu Ning, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the living room door open. Her parents had returned.
“Dad, Mom, Xiao Ning is back today. She’s cooking in the kitchen,” Chu Zhang said with a smile after seeing his parents.
“Huh?” Mrs. Chu was a little taken aback, but she continued, “Xiao Ning, let me. You aren’t often able to come back. Go and have a rest.”
“It’s okay, Mom. You’ve been working all day. You should be the ones to rest well,” Chu Ning replied with a smile as she was busied herself in the kitchen.
“Mom, I’m very tired today too. Also, look. What good stuff did I buy for you and Dad?” Chu Huan ran into the room and took out two pillows with massage functions, showing them off.
“This child, this thing costs a few hundred. Why are you spending this money on us?” Mother Chu grumbled. However, she couldn’t help but smile.
“Then, Mom, Dad, I’ll put it in your room.” With that, Chu Huan proudly took his things and went to his parents’ room.
This was the result of his two days of hard work at the construction site, but when he saw his parents’ smiles, he felt that it was worth it.
Chu Ning also heard Chu Huan’s words from the kitchen and smiled.
Although Chu Huan had a stubborn trust and love for Ye Ting, he was still able to treat his parents well. It was a pity that he had been brainwashed too completely by Ye Ting.
