“… no need, Dad. There’s already so much that we can’t finish eating. You really, did you make a fortune today?”
Chu Ning also felt sorry for her father. The meat naturally would have cost a lot of money. Usually, the couple hardly ate meat; they simply couldn’t bear to eat it.
“It’s fine, as long as you recover quickly!”
…
That night’s dinner was exceptionally sumptuous, but it was a pity that her brothers couldn’t gather together.
Chu Ning once again demonstrated her cooking skills. Everyone ate until they were full, including herself.
“Xiao Ning’s cooking skills are really good. I think she can consider becoming a gourmet in the future,” Chu Jing said seriously after finishing his meal.
“Second Brother, you’re flattering me too much. You’re the only ones who enjoy my cooking. It’s hard to be a chef, let alone a gourmet.”
Chu Ning waved her hand. Although she was confident in her cooking skills, she still needed to be modest.
“I think the dishes our Xiao Ning cooks taste even better than the last restaurant we visited.”
Chu Ning’s mother said at this time. Her talent in cooking was almost the same as her aptitude for learning. Perhaps it was because of her strong learning capacity that she was outstanding in all aspects.
“Hey, Mom, Second Brother, don’t praise me. My face is going to turn red if you carry on.” Chu Ning was a little embarrassed. She was just performing normally!
…
After dinner, Chu Ning turned on her phone again. As expected, Ye Ting also replied to her, “I’m really envious of Sister’s art of talking. However, there are some things that can’t be obtained no matter what. Yet, for some, it’s within easy reach. I also want to see you show your beauty at the Dragon Boat Festival, but the conditions don’t seem to allow it.”
Chu Ning looked at this rather childish message and almost burst out laughing.
At this point, she was still mocking her, using financial strength to compare the two of them. There was also the matter of the host of the Dragon Boat Festival Gala. Could she not participate?
She simply did not want to participate!
Thus, Chu Ning chose to directly ignore her message and simply could not be bothered to reply.
She still had a lot of unread messages waiting to be replied to!
Chu Ning opened the chat box with Yan Shen and typed, “I’m fine, thank you for your concern.”
She opened Chen Chen’s chat box again. “It’s fine, we’ll still be neighbors in the future!”
By the time she finished replying to them one by one, it had already taken almost half an hour.
Just as Chu Ning put down her phone and was about to wash up, her contact screen showed that a stranger had added her and was waiting for her acceptance.
Chu Ning clicked on it and saw that her real name was verified as Luo Yu.
“Huh? Why did she add me?”
Chu Ning didn’t know why Luo Yu added her WeChat. Was it because of Yan Shen? It shouldn’t be that serious. She had already paid the price of a knee injury today. Didn’t this clarify the issue?
She didn’t like Yan Shen at all. Moreover, it wasn’t like what the forum post had said, that the two of them were very close.
Chu Ning thought about it and decided to accept the friend request.
“Hello, what can I do for you?” Chu Ning asked first.
After less than a minute, the other party replied.
“Hello, Chu Ning, I’m Luo Yu.” There was a cute emoji at the end of Luo Yu’s message.
“Nothing much, I just feel that I misunderstood you in the past. I feel like I just met you now.” Luo Yu immediately sent a second message.
Chu Ning understood what Luo Yu meant. Indeed, Chu Ning’s personality in the past and now could not be compared. Her previous actions were simply unreasonable, spoiled, rude, and unreasonable…
Although Luo Yu had been abroad for half a year, she should have some impression of the previous Chu Ning. Otherwise, she would not have said what she did.
“People change. Perhaps it is because of the accident back then that my character has changed a lot,” Chu Ning quickly replied.
“Yes, yes. I also admire you very much. To be able to get such a high score, you really are a genius!” Luo Yu praised, adding a thumbs up emoji at the end of her words.
Chu Ning was a little helpless. This Luo Yu was beating around the bush, speaking about superficial matters.
