Chapter 157 A broken mirror is hard to mend
Of course, even if it means death.

The key point is that he was watched by his fiancée the whole time.

Lu Dongming suddenly felt that the distance between him and President Jinxiu was getting farther and farther.

"Don't be discouraged, brother."

"What a big deal."

"Isn't it because the goddess saw your embarrassing situation?"

"Look at it from a bright perspective. You risked your life to bring her food. Doesn't this show your sincerity even more?"

"Perhaps, President Jinxiu's cold and hard heart was slowly melted by you."

Chu Ning comforted him from the side.

Lu Dongming's heart, which was originally full of holes, suddenly felt much better: "Brother Ning, is this true? You mean, this is still a good thing?"

"Of course not. Think about it yourself. Which one would move your beloved more, you delivering food safely along the way, or you delivering food in the heavy rain, soaking wet like a dog, and even falling on the road, getting covered in mud?"

Lu Dongming thought about it and chose the latter.

Chu Ning slapped his thigh and said, "Right, isn't this the same logic? Just like today, you almost drowned while trying to bring her food. Tell me, if that Jinxiu CEO saw this, would he feel guilty? Would he blame himself? Would he be worried? Anyway, I have to go, you figure it out yourself."

Chu Ning comforted her and then prepared to leave.

He came to take a look out of guilt.

Seeing that Lu Dongming was fine, Chu Ning felt relieved.

But Lu Dongming, who was originally in a depressed mood, suddenly became energetic and radiant again after Chu Ning's "teaching".

He felt that what Chu Ning said made sense.

Why didn't he think about this just now?

"Brother Ning, let's have dinner together if we have a chance."

"I need your advice on many things."

Lu Dongming sent Chu Ning to the door, and before leaving, he burst into tears of gratitude to Chu Ning.

Although Chu Ning agreed verbally, it was just perfunctory.

He had already decided that after seeing Lu Dongming this time, he would no longer get involved in this mess.

All for family harmony.

It's not worth making your wife angry because of other people's affairs.

After leaving the hospital, Chu Ning bought some fruits and toys. He planned to visit his eldest brother's house on the way.

It has been quite some time since Chu An moved back.

During this period, Chu Ning was busy with work and had no time to go there.

It happened that Chu Ning would pass by his eldest brother's community on the way home from the hospital, so he stopped by.

As soon as Chu Ning went upstairs, he heard a baby crying.

Chu Ning pressed the doorbell a few times, and Chu An came over and opened the door.

"Xiao Ning, why are you here?"

"Brother, I just happened to pass by, so I came to see Huanhuan. What's wrong? Why is he still crying?" Chu Ning wanted to take the child from Chu An's arms, but Huanhuan cried even harder and insisted on being held by his father.

"This bastard is becoming more and more difficult to deal with. Your uncle wants to hug you, but you won't let him? Your uncle really loves you in vain." Chu An scolded.

Chu Ning didn't take it to heart.

Children all kiss their parents.

Especially when I am in a bad mood, I must be held by my parents.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying so sadly? Uncle bought you a toy. If you cry again, I won't give it to you." Chu Ning took out the toy and gave it to Huanhuan.

But there was no way to coax her, she was still crying.

Chu An sighed: "I was cooking in the kitchen just now, and he was playing outside by himself and bumped his head."

When Chu Ning heard this, he noticed that his nephew had a big bump on his head.

Chu Ning suddenly felt distressed.

It is indeed difficult for one person to take care of a child.

It was fine when Huan Huan couldn't move, but now that she can walk, she's bound to bump into things if she's not careful.

Chu Ning sniffed and seemed to smell something pungent.

"It's broken, there are still vegetables in the pot?"

"Xiao Ning, go and turn off the fire!"

Chu An immediately shouted anxiously.

But when Chu Ning rushed to the kitchen, it was still too late.

The pot was dry, the food was black, and the pungent smell of burnt food filled the entire room.

After Chu Ning turned off the fire, he poured out all the food and opened the window for ventilation.

"Where is my sister-in-law?"

"One of you cooks, and the other takes care of the kids."

"The child gets uglier as he grows older. How can you take care of him?"

While ventilating, Chu Ning asked his elder brother.

"Why mention her?" Chu An's tone was filled with anger.

It turned out that since Chu An moved back from his brother's house, he thought Du Wei would change.

But it turned out that Chu An was completely overthinking.

That woman still did her own thing, not coming home during the day and coming back very late at night from playing. She didn't care about the children or the family. What's even more hateful is that now Du Wei refused to give Chu An the money to buy milk powder.

She said Chu An had already made money and should hand it over to her.

Chu An was very angry, and had no choice but to ask the company for an advance on his salary, which was how he could barely get by.

"Then have you given your salary to your sister-in-law?" Chu Ning asked again.

"Of course not. I've seen clearly that your sister-in-law is no longer interested in living a good life. I will never give her a penny in the future." Chu An was obviously heartbroken by Du Wei, and said firmly.

"Will my sister-in-law agree?"

"Of course she didn't agree. She made a scene with me a few days ago. We almost had a fight again. Fortunately, her parents came over in time and stopped this crazy woman. Seeing that I insisted on not paying my salary, your sister-in-law asked me for rent again. She said that the house was hers and I had to pay rent if I lived here." When Chu An talked about this, he was so angry that he laughed.

Chu Ning also got angry after hearing this.

It was the first time he heard that one had to pay rent while living in one's own home.

Are they a couple?
This is just like sharing a room with a roommate.

"Brother, she asks you for rent, so you should ask her for wages. For doing housework, cooking, washing clothes, and taking care of children, it's not too much to ask her to pay five or six thousand a month, right?" Chu Ning said angrily.

Chu An nodded: "That's what I said. Anyway, it was a stalemate in the end, and no one gave anyone money."

"What about my sister-in-law? Is she still playing outside? Why isn't she coming back for dinner at this time?"

"She also found a class to attend. She probably hasn't finished get off work yet."

"Is this true? My sister-in-law will go to work and earn money? What kind of job? Is there really someone who wants her?" Chu Ning felt unbelievable.

Du Wei hasn't been working for many years.

With her personality and laziness, Chu Ning couldn't believe that Du Wei would take the initiative to go to work, and he didn't believe that there would be any company to hire her.

In fact, not only Chu Ning, but Chu An was also a little surprised.

“I heard that he found a connection to get in.”

"I guess it's just helping the boss to send and receive documents in the office. It might be a position like a secretary assistant."

"I don't bother to care about her now."

"Let her be."

"Just don't make trouble with me."

Since the last domestic violence incident, Chu An's attitude towards Du Wei has obviously changed.

He no longer took care of her, no longer regarded the family as his only concern, no longer worked hard without complaint, and no longer gave Du Wei a penny.

As the saying goes, a broken mirror cannot be mended.

Although Chu An moved back home, Chu Ning clearly felt that the rift between his elder brother and sister-in-law had not been eliminated.
