313 A Warm Home
“Chu Ning, I’m here,” Bai Hong mumbled to himself as he followed the crowd out of the train station.
There was no enmity between him and Chu Ning, but since he had already terminated the collaboration with the Zhao family and Ye Ting was coincidentally willing to pay him a huge sum of money to deal with Chu Ning, he had no reason to refuse.
He would work for whoever paid him; Bai Hong was only driven by benefits. Ye Zhen’s worry was not misplaced, but he had still underestimated Ye Ting. She had actually dared to make a deal with a person like Bai Hong.
Ye Ting told Bai Hong everything she knew about Chu Ning. Bai Hong was a little surprised. He could not understand why two high school students would have such a huge grudge against each other…
However, this didn’t matter. He was paid to do this, and his ultimate goal was to satisfy his employer. As for who it was that he was serving, it didn’t matter much to him.
On the other side, Chu Ning was talking to a few new employees about the rough plans for the Soaring Clouds Group. This was a new start. After this dinner, the future development of M City would be beyond the expectations of the entire Province A. It would eventually affect the entire country, even the world.
“A toast to you, President Chu!” Under Zhang Bo’s lead, the other three raised their glasses and clinked them with Chu Ning’s.
“Soaring Clouds Group, raise the sails, set sail,” Chu Ning thought to herself, looking at the four people in front of her.
The following events would proceed rather smoothly. Chu Ning had resolved almost all the problems she faced. She was even smiling during class. That day was Thursday, and the weekend would come after class tomorrow.
Ye Ting was likewise in a good mood. Ye Ting had never looked forward to school so much. She and Bai Hong had agreed to meet at seven o’clock that night to discuss how to deal with Chu Ning.
Ye Ting was so excited that she had even forgotten the fact that Bai Hong was a dangerous person.
A peaceful day passed in this way. Chu Ning hadn’t changed because of her special status. She remained the same. If Yang Feng hadn’t made use of the school’s shareholders to deal with her, she wouldn’t have chosen to be a board member of Jingyuan High School.
In the evening, after school, Chu Ning did not let Zhang Bo wait as she usually did. She intended to return to the Chu residence that day and ask Chu Jing about the development of the app.
“Second Brother, where’s Seventh Brother? Why are you home alone?” Chu Ning took out her keys and opened the door, only to find her second brother, Chu Jing, alone.
“Xiao Zhang has been addicted to various kinds of physical exercise recently. He said he wanted to make up for all the years of exercise he had missed out on while lying in bed. He’s probably running now.” Chu Jing walked out of the room and explained with a smile.
“That’s true, it’s only five o’clock. Since Seventh Brother likes it, it’s up to him.” Chu Ning sat on the sofa with a satisfied expression.
Only when she was at the Chu residence was she able to relax completely. This was a feeling that she had never felt before in Jinghu District.
“Perhaps this is what it feels like to be at home,” Chu Ning squinted her eyes and sighed inside.
“Xiao Ning, have you been too tired recently? Look at how you’re lying down. You’re already an 18-year-old adult,” Chu Jing said helplessly as he looked at Chu Ning, who was lying on the sofa without a care for her image.
“But I’ll always be the youngest in this family,” Chu Ning muttered.
“That’s true. Since you’re back, don’t think about anything else. Just relax completely.” Chu Qi nodded in agreement.
Although he didn’t know what Chu Ning had been busy with recently, he knew that she looked exhausted every time she came back. Although he couldn’t tell from her appearance, Chu Ning wasn’t as energetic as she had been when she had first returned to the Chu family.
“I wonder how Big Brother and Third Brother are doing. I’ve been too busy recently and have too many things to think about, so I haven’t called them. And Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother, I’ve almost forgotten what they look like… Oh right, Second Brother, let me tell you something interesting. I saw Fourth Brother yesterday…”
Chu Ning’s voice became softer and softer until she fell asleep.
She was too exhausted.
Chu Ning really hoped that she could handle everything in the Soaring Clouds Group by herself, but it turned out that she was not superhuman. Her personal energy was limited.
