“In my opinion, Little Sis, it would be best for you to bring your family back home. Even though your family was responsible for that incident in the past, you’ve held onto your stubbornness for so many years. It’s time to let go and move on.”

Second Aunt roiled her eyes and changed the subject to Chu Qing’s mother. Chu Qing couldn’t help but chuckle. It was a shame that someone like Second Aunt didn’t perform in comedic acts or skits; she had quite the talent for it.

“I’m not going back. You know how the family treats him.”

His mother shook her head firmly, while Chu Qing’s father’s expression did not look too good. He stood up and smiled.

“You guys chat first. 1’11 make a pot of tea.”

Chu Qing lowered his head and listened to their conversation silently.

“I say, look at him. What’s so good about him? Back then, if only you listened to us and married the Liu family’s young master…”

Second Aunt glanced at Chu Qing’s father’s departing figure and whispered.

“We’re doing fine here too.”

“Fine? Look at you. You’re exhausted, working every day for this family. Don’t lie to yourself.”

“If you ask me, you should just go home. The Liu family’s young master misses you so much that he can’t eat. If you marry him, you’ll get to enjoy life so much more!”

BANG!

With a loud bang, Second Aunt was startled and turned her gaze towards Chu Qing. He had forcefully slammed the table.

“Chu Qing!”

Chu Qing’s mother glanced at him. Although there was a hint of blame in her eyes, it was still filled with doting.

“I’m sorry, I just saw a fly on the table.”

Chu Qing scratched his head and chuckled.

Second Aunt rolled her eyes and looked at Chu Qing. “This child…”

“Alright, alright. The family expects you to provide an explanation this time. Otherwise, how can the family maintain any sense of dignity? Considering our past good relationship, they entrusted me with the task of finding you.”

His mother’s face was a little gloomy as if she had aged a few years.

“Also, Chu Qing, right? Treasure your last years of school. You might be married soon…”

Chu Qing pretended not to understand and asked innocently, “Why?”

“It’s all because your mother isn’t capable and insisted on struggling alone for so long.” “If I were rich, would I still need to marry so early?”

“Rich? Well, my dear nephew, let me tell you the truth. If you were to marry a wealthy young lady, you could still enjoy a comfortable life. So, don’t be too resistant to the arrangements the family has made for you,” Second Aunt said with a smirk.

“Second Sis, let me think about it again.”

At this moment, his mother suddenly interrupted. Seeing that her younger sister had finally compromised, Second Aunt chuckled. The wrinkles on her face seemed to have relaxed a little.

“Heh, wouldn’t it be better if you had said that earlier?”

Second Aunt elaborated on numerous advantages to Chu Qing’s mother before taking a sip of her tea, wearing a contented expression.

“Alright, that’s all for now. I have other friends waiting for me here, so I won’t linger at your house any longer. I’ll await your answer,” Second Aunt declared, signaling her departure.

Second Aunt stood up, but her younger sister had no intention of sending her off. Second Aunt frowned tightly.

“There’s no need to send me off.”

“Wait, Second Aunt.”

At this moment, Chu Qing suddenly stopped her and asked with an innocent expression, “Can money really do a lot of things?”

“Of course. Why? Do you want the family to introduce you to a good family?”

“No, Second Aunt, 1 just want to ask., how much does it cost to buy a person’s leg?”

Chu Qing suddenly chuckled and asked.

Seeing Chu Qing’s smile, Second Aunt suddenly felt a chill run down her spine and shivered.

“This child… Little Sister, if you have the chance, take him to see a doctor. Why is his heart so filled with darkness?” Second Aunt remarked.

Chu Qing’s mother glared at him but did not say anything.

After Second Aunt left, his mother smiled bitterly and said to Chu Qing, “Don’t take what she told you today to heart. Mom will settle it.”

Chu Qing nodded, but he didn’t say anything.

If you can’t settle it, 1’11 do it for you.

In this lifetime, the significance of Chu Qing in terms of family ties became even more apparent. If his mother’s distant relatives dared to cause trouble for their family once more, Chu Qing would show them the true meaning of cruelty!

Under the pretense of needing to do his homework, Chu Qing took out his phone and made a call to someone..
