Chapter 149: Ye Ting Has Come
“Because my sister is modest and warm, but is extremely proud inside. And you really deserve to have it. No matter how good a car is, it’s just your foil,” Chu Zhe added.
“Okay, this is boring. Big Brother, can’t you leave some suspense for when I reveal the answer?”
Chu Ning revealed a rare adorable side as she ranted.
“I said I won’t guess, but you insisted on getting me to guess. When I guessed correctly, you’re not happy about it,” Chu Zhe also teased.
“Alright, Big Brother, you’re really great. I won’t continue on the walk anymore. I’ll go home and ask Mom now; I’ll ask her if she wants to have a grandchild!”
After saying that, Chu Ning unhesitatingly ran in the direction of their home.
“Hey! Xiao Ning, wait for me! Slow down! I was wrong!”
Chu Zhe’s voice gradually faded away, and the two chasing shadows slowly merged with the bright lights in the distance.
Chu Ning enjoyed the comfort and freedom brought by running, especially when there was someone behind her worrying about her safety. She felt that her ponytail was a little constricted, so she untied her headband and let her hair caress her face in the breeze.
“It feels good to have someone to share things with.” Chu Ning felt this from the bottom of her heart.
…
That night, Chu Ning slept exceptionally soundly.
The next morning, when Chu Ning had finished washing up, she found that there was a sumptuous breakfast on the large table in the living room.
Her brother had on an apron, and was sweating profusely as he walked out of the kitchen with some food.
“Morning, Xiao Ning. Do you have time to have breakfast at home before going to school?” Chu Zhe asked as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
“Of course I have time. Big Brother personally made breakfast. Even if I’m late, I have to finish it before I leave,” Chu Ning smiled.
Their parents had already gone to work at this time. Although it was Father Chu’s birthday that day, he did not ask for leave. He would only be back slightly earlier that afternoon.
“That’s too exaggerated. Eat it while it’s hot. Soy milk won’t taste good if it’s cold,” Chu Zhe reminded with a warm smile.
After breakfast, Chu Ning returned to her normal routine and took a taxi to school.
She felt depressed that she couldn’t drive a car despite owning one, especially since it was a new car.
After comparing the experience of riding in her own car versus that of a taxi, she still felt that buying the Rolls-Royce had totally been worth it.
After arriving at the classroom, Chu Ning kept feeling that Ye Ting’s gaze was obscurely fixed on her.
Although this action was a little strange, Chu Ning didn’t give it too much thought.
Ye Ting had always had many petty thoughts, but in the end, she proved to be no match for Chu Ning.
Chu Ning hadn’t even seriously thought about dealing with Ye Ting, otherwise, she would be in an even worse state than she was in now.
The day’s classes soon came to an end. After the bell of the last class had rung, Chu Ning packed her school bag and rushed out of the classroom impatiently.
That day’s dinner would be held at the Chu family home to celebrate Father Chu’s birthday. Moreover, everyone acknowledged that Chu Ning’s cooking skills good, so she had naturally accepted the task of preparing dinner for the family.
However, what surprised her was that, while she was waiting for a taxi at the school gate, Ye Ting actually joined her!
“Huh? Does the eldest daughter of the Ye family also have to personally wait for a taxi?” Chu Ning asked with a smile.
“Of course. Today is Uncle Chu’s birthday. I haven’t forgotten about it. I wonder if it’s okay if we take a ride back together?” Ye Ting voiced out the reason she was standing beside Chu Ning.
“Sure. As long as you’re alright with it.”
Chu Ning spread her hands. She didn’t know what new games Ye Ting wanted to play, but no matter what, if Ye Ting went to visit Father Chu and celebrate his birthday, Chu Ning wouldn’t object and even somewhat agreed with it.
This would make Father Chu happier.
The half-hour drive wasn’t long, but the two didn’t exchange a word during the entire trip.
Chu Ning looked with interest at the scenery outside, while Ye Ting lowered her head and played with her phone.
When they reached the gates of the Chu family’s neighborhood, Ye Ting was still looking at her phone.
“Miss, we’re here. Don’t tell me you want to stay in the taxi?” Chu Ning said helplessly.
She could feel that Ye Ting’s mind was not on celebrating Father Chu’s birthday.
“Coming.” Ye Ting snapped back to reality after hearing Chu Ning’s voice.
