Chapter 22: Another Encounter
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Li Jing?” Chu Ning’s voice was a little playful. “I’m afraid he can’t help much.”
Dabao’s eyes were dark. In a polite and childish voice, he said, “Auntie, that uncle keeps cursing. His mouth is rotten! No, it’s called an oral ulcer.”
Xiaobao agreed. “Thank you, Auntie, but we don’t need it. My father will find a kindergarten for us. You’d better buy medicine for my rotten uncle.”
Chu Yue didn’t understand what she meant at all. She just thought that they were little bastards and that their words were harsh. Then she smiled and said, “Have you two babies had lunch? There’s a place called Tarim Restaurant nearby. It’s very delicious. The head chef there used to be in charge of the royal family’s state banquet. Let your mother take you to try it. It’s in a courtyard house. There are two red lanterns hanging at the door. They’re especially eye-catching.”
Chu Ning’s eyes flashed dangerously. “Say that again?”
Chu Ge couldn’t help it. He kicked the willow tree beside Chu Yue. “Did you rent your mouth? Would you die if you didn’t speak? Tarim only receives VIPs from the top noble families. Even the Chu family isn’t qualified to go. Today, you can order food because of Li Jing. Are you out of your mind, or are you just trying to show off?”
His grandmother said that she liked to eat Tarim’s dishes, but how much could she eat at her age? She just felt that it was a form of pride. Chu Yue was the best at putting on airs and finding connections with Li Jing. Just for this bit of food, Chu Ge felt ashamed.
Chu Yue did not expect such a big reaction from Chu Ge. It seemed that if he had not been wary of the Li family, he would have kicked her! Her eyes instantly turned red. “I didn’t mean to. I just…”
Chu Ge interrupted sharply, “Shut up. You know what you’re thinking! Aren’t you in a hurry to feed Grandma the food you’ve spent so much effort on?”
They were on the street. He wanted to save face and didn’t want to sound bad. He was already trying to suppress his anger.
Chu Yue’s face was stiff. She gripped the bag in her hand tightly and headed straight for the hospital.
It was not until Chu Yue was out of sight that Chu Ge turned back to look at Chu Ning. He wanted to say sorry, but he found it hard to say it! He was ashamed of being a coward! What was the use of saying sorry? Nothing could change it because he could not change the minds of his grandmother and his parents. If he had not bumped into Chu Yue confessing to Li Rui and knew Chu Yue’s true colors, he might still be biased towards Chu Yue! After all, they had been together for many years.
If Chu Ge had understood the situation earlier, he would have gone to look for Chu Ning long ago. However, it was still so many years too late. It could not be made up for overnight.
Chu Ning smiled indifferently and pinched Chu Ge’s face. “You’re so young but are behaving like an old man.”

Chu Ge froze and immediately blushed. No one had ever pinched his face like this since he was young. If it were anyone else, he might have subconsciously kicked them. Because it was Chu Ning, he actually did not resist.
Chu Ning said, “You should go back early too. I’ll bring the children back to my residence first.”
Chu Ge said, “Okay.” It was not until Chu Ning was far away that he realized he had to contact the kindergarten on behalf of the children.
When he finished the call and returned to the hospital, he heard Chu Yue’s voice just as he reached the door of the ward.
“Grandma, I saw Chu Ning at the entrance of the Lake Tibet Kindergarten just now.”
“Don’t mention that jinx to me!”
Then, Grandma said angrily, “What is that jinx doing there?”
Chu Yue said, “It seems she wants to send Dabao and Xiaobao to the Lake Tibet Kindergarten.”
“Bah! Do the two bastards want to go to the Tibet Lake Kindergarten? They’re not even worthy of guarding the door!”
Chu Yue said, “Grandma, no matter what, Chu Ning is Mom’s biological daughter…”

“Our Chu family doesn’t have such a shameless daughter. Just pretend that she’s long dead…”
Chu Ge couldn’t listen to it anymore. He reached out and slammed the door open. Then he slammed it shut again.
Instantly, Chu Yue’s face turned pale again. Had he heard what she had just said to their grandmother again? Why was he always so…
Old Madam Chu’s expression was also very ugly, but she was angry because of Chu Ge’s reaction! She had only scolded the jinx a few times, but Chu Ge actually lost his temper with her. She said excitedly, “Chu Ge! You have to remember Grandma’s words. Don’t associate with that jinx. She will kill you!”
Chu Ge’s face was expressionless, and his voice was cold. “Grandma, I remember the doctor telling you not to get too emotional.”
