604 Leave Dejectedly

The woman’s younger brother saw that things were not going well and hastily spoke up. “Don’t go too far!”

“It was clearly the two of you who came to find trouble with Old Chu’s family, but now you’re saying that they’ve gone too far. How shameless can you get!”

“Yeah, you guys are obviously in the wrong. I suggest we call the police; they might be doing something shameful behind your backs.”

“This woman is really brazen. She actually dares ask for an explanation at this time. If it were me, I would have been so ashamed that I couldn’t even show my face.”

Although the woman’s younger brother spoke fiercely, he was actually extremely guilty at that point.

Now, the audience who were watching the show had put a label on the pair of them. They had also vaguely surrounded the duo, cutting off their escape route.

“Xiao Ning, I’ll take you to the hospital now.” Mrs. Chu was not thinking about how to punish them; she was looking at Chu Ning with a worried expression.

“Mom, I’m alright. I’m standing here perfectly fine.” In fact, Chu Ning had returned home for a more important matter.

Relatively speaking, she wasn’t too bothered with how to deal with Deng Wei’s wife.

“Chu Ning, can you…” The woman looked at Chu Ning and bit her lip. She had not expected things to turn out this way.

She was usually arrogant and domineering, but now she was simply at a loss about what to do.

“As a wife, it’s normal for you to worry about your husband. But now, I can tell you clearly that his ending in prison is destined.” Chu Ning looked at the woman with an indifferent expression.

“However, the jail term is limited — 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, how long your husband stays in there depends on the amount of useful information he can reveal. As far as I know, he’s not the mastermind behind this,” Chu Ning added.

Chu Ning knew who wanted to harm her.

But now, she had no evidence. Deng Wei might not have any evidence either.

But what if?

Deng Wei’s fate in prison was already decided. In order to reduce his sentence, it would not be surprising if he would say anything.

“I understand.” Hearing Chu Ning’s words, the woman nodded her head, disheartened.

Chu Ning’s words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the last trace of hope in her heart.

“Thank you, neighbors, for standing up for my parents today. If everyone has time, I would like to invite all of you to a meal.” Chu Ning looked at the twenty people in front of her and smiled.

A few minutes later, the crowd had dispersed, and the woman and her brother were able to leave. This was because Chu Ning did not want to cause trouble for them. At this moment, Chu Ning’s parents were sitting silently on the sofa in the living room. The corners of Chu Ning’s mouth curled up slightly.

Chu Jing returned to his room. Since Chu Ning was back, she could take care of the rest.

Daughters were better at matters like comforting parents.

“Mom, where’s Fourth Brother?” Chu Ning was the first to speak.

“Xiao Huan came back a few days ago. He said that he found a job in another city and left after packing his luggage.” Mother Chu sighed faintly, feeling somewhat powerless.

Although she had many children, Chu Jing was presently the only one who stayed at home, accompanying the couple.

“Then, Dad, Mom, why don’t you move in with me?” Chu Ning nodded and suddenly asked.

“This… Xiao Ning, your mother and I still need to go to work. It’s a bit far to stay at your place. I’m afraid it’s not convenient.” Mr. Chu hurriedly waved his hand. In fact, this was just an excuse. He felt that he already owed his daughter too much.

“Mom, what do you think?” Chu Ning could only look toward Mrs. Chu.

“I think what your dad said makes sense,” she replied softly.

“Alright then.” Chu Ning patted her forehead helplessly.

“Then if anything happens to me at home in the future, you will no longer have a daughter,” Chu Ning said deliberately.

Sure enough, after hearing Chu Ning’s words, troubled expressions immediately appeared on the couple’s faces.

Chu Ning’s villa was certainly comfortable to live in, but as parents, they were still able to work and had not reached the age of retirement; of accepting their children’s support. This was also the reason they had refused to move there all along. However, if Chu Ning’s personal safety could not be guaranteed, it was not impossible for them to put aside their conflicted thoughts.

Chu Ning looked at the faltering couple and said with a smile, “Mom, Dad, I’ve found a new job for you.”
