Chapter 152: The Nanny?
Qu Li pulled Qin Yu over and whispered into Qin Yu’s ear, “Did you get the bank card?”
Qin Yu understood immediately when she heard this.
As expected, what else could Qu Li have come to find her for if it wasn’t for money.
Qin Yu was disgusted, but on the surface, she still pretended to be scared and said timidly, “Chen told me he’ll keep it and give it to me when only when it’s needed.”
“You brain of a pig, how can you blindly believe what others say?!” As soon as she heard that Qin Yu had not taken back the bank card, Qu Li was furious. She stretched out her hand and poked Qin Yu’s head.
“What do you mean when it’s needed? Our family needs money now, so hurry up and ask Ning Chen to give you the bank card, do you hear me? !”
Qin Yu shouted, “I know, I know, don’t hit me…”
“Madam Qu!” A cold voice suddenly sounded.
Qu Li was so scared that she immediately let go of Qin Yu.
Qin Yu turned her head and found that Ning Chen had returned.
It must be Ah Yu who told Ning Chen… Qin Yu immediately went up to hold Ning Chen’s arm and whispered, “Chen, you came back.”
Ning Chen gently patted Qin Yu’s hand and comforted her, then, he said to Qu Li coldly, “Madam Qu, Qin Yu is now my wife. If you don’t behave yourself, you are disrespecting me. I hope you will think about the consequences before you speak or do anything.”
How dare you threaten me? Qu Li was angered by the Ning Chen’s strong response.
“Young Master Ning, I’m just teaching Qin Yu a lesson. Speaking of which, I’m still your mother-in-law. Look at what you’re saying, you’re treating me like an outsider.”
Mother-in-law? What a joke!
What a shameless woman.
Qin Yu rolled her eyes, secretly.
“Mother-in-law? As far as I know, you’re only willing to raise Xiao Yu after receiving money. I think it’s more appropriate to call you Xiao Yu’s nanny. I’m afraid you don’t deserve to be my mother-in-law,” Ning Chen said indifferently.
Nanny? Ning Chen, how dare you!
Qin Yu wanted to laugh.
It felt so good!
Qu Li’s face turned red from the anger induced by Ning Chen. When she opened her mouth again, even her voice trembled. “Is this how your family treats the adoptive parents of your granddaughter-in-law? What’s an eye-opener! Just you wait!”
Seeing Qu Li leave the Ning family dejectedly, Qin Yu grabbed Ning Chen’s hand and said softly, “Chen, don’t lower yourself to her level. She’s that kind of person.”
The coldness in Ning Chen’s eyes faded bit by bit. When he looked at Qin Yu, his gaze had already softened.
“How can you let that woman touch You? You’re my wife now and nobody else can bully you. Even if you’re a dumb girl to the uninitiated, they have no right to hurt you,” Ning Chen said solemnly.
“I know! Qu Li knows me better than some, so I don’t want her to see through my act. All she does are merely little inconveniences, I’m already used to it…” Qin Yu paused, she could feel Ning Chen’s darkening mood.
“You’re used to it?” Ning Chen’s tone was indeed a little stern, “Xiao Yu, I know what kind of life you had in the past. I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to protect you during those days, but you aren’t going through this again. Although I, Ning Chen, have some troubles by my side now, it’s not to the point where I have to make you suffer. If I can’t even protect you well, then what’s the point of me living? My parents are gone, and the person I care about the most now is you. Promise me that you won’t let yourself get hurt in the future, okay? I am your rock.”
Qin Yu was momentarily stunned, hearing Ning Chen’s serious voice of affection. After a long while only she said in a slightly bitter voice, “I… I’m sorry, I won’t do it again in the future…”
“Xiao Yu,” Ning Chen smiled bitterly and held Qin Yu’s hand. “Don’t say sorry to me. You never have to be sorry. Just be yourself, okay?”
He would feel bad, otherwise.
“I just don’t want to see my darling get angry and sad,” Qin Yu muttered softly. When she saw Ning Chen’s expression easing up, she gave him a hug.
“I know, I will never mistreat myself in the future! If anyone dares to bully me, I will let them know who’s my husband!”
Ning Chen laughed, but he was also very pleased.
“Yes, that’s right. You can do whatever you want, I will always be here.” Ning Chen rubbed the head of the delicate and soft little girl in his arms.
“What about you? I don’t want you to be wronged.” Qin Yu’s voice sounded muffled in Ning Chen’s chest. “When will you live the life you deserve?”
