Chapter 156: Chu Zhe’s Explanation

She had obviously already suppressed Chu Ning completely. The reason she came to the Chu family that day was not to celebrate Father Chu’s birthday!

Ye Ting did not expect Chu Ning to be prepared as well. Moreover, her counterattack was so swift and fierce that she could not come up any means of retaliating!

At the thought of this, she looked at Chu Huan with a hint of disgust in her eyes. If he had provided her with such information earlier, she would not have been so passive!

Chu Huan also had an innocent and surprised look on his face.

He did not know what was going through Ye Ting’s mind at this moment. He was also shocked by the important news that Chu Ning had tossed out.

If Chu Ning was not joking, then she was too rich. That was secondary — she was actually willing to spend on the Chu family and Chu Zhang!

A life cannot be bought with money, but Chu Huan knew that if it were not for Chu Ning, their parents would not have been able to cure Chu Zhang’s health problem for the rest of his life.

On the other side, Father and Mother Chu wore complex expressions on their faces and were trembling slightly.

They had not expected Chu Ning to have quietly sacrificed so much, and without their knowledge.

“Xiao Ning, you… you’re making me feel ashamed, as a parent.”

Father Chu’s voice was a little hoarse. He had many children, but apart from Chu Zhang, everyone else was in good health. Only Chu Zhang had been born disabled; this was something that Father Chu could never let go of!

But now, on his birthday, his young daughter had publicly announced this good news.

“Dad, don’t think too much. I will still say the same — we are family, forever a family. It has been this way from the moment I stepped into the Chu family. So you don’t have to feel guilty. This is what I should do. After all, I have money.”

After saying that, Chu Ning glanced at Ye Ting.

But at this moment, Ye Ting could be said to be in a terrible state. Her face was ashen, and she sat mutely on the chair.

Without a doubt, all her efforts that day had been in vain.

Not only had she not made Chu Ning fall out of favor in front of the Chu family, but she had also provided a strong contrast, highlighting Chu Ning’s excellence.

As the only daughter of a wealthy family like the Ye family, she was still far from making as much a contribution to the Chu family as Chu Ning had.

What surprised her was that, it was fine if Chu Ning was rich, but the point was that she was really willing to spend on the Chu family…

She was unaware that the school had long rewarded Chu Ning with a villa, and that Chu Ning had invited Chu Ning’s parents to move there, but the latter had been unwilling to do so.

“Dad, you should be happy to have an outstanding daughter like Xiao Ning.”

At this moment, Chu Jing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. He raised the wine glass in front of him and made a toast in Father Chu’s direction.

“Yes, Dad. Xiao Ning is much more impressive than us brothers,” Chu Zhe also echoed softly.

Chu Huan thought for a moment, but in the end, he did not say anything.

He had actually wanted to praise Chu Ning a little, but when he saw Ye Ting’s dejected look, he decided to keep his mouth shut in the end.

In any case, Chu Zhe and Chu Jing had already complimented her.

Ye Ting still seemed to be a little grudging. She tucked her slightly messy chestnut-colored curls behind her ear and abruptly raised her head. She looked at Chu Ning and said, “Sister Chu Ning’s actions really impressed me and made me feel very touched; that you’re be able to give so much to my family, and take on the title of Jingyuan High School’s school belle. However, I’m a little curious. Sister Chu Ning, can you tell us about how you made your fortune? I believe that Uncle Chu, Auntie Chu, and all our brothers are also curious.”

Ye Ting was still unwilling to give up. She did not believe that Chu Ning, a high school student who was not even 18 years old, had such great ability!

Perhaps this money was not obtained through legal means!

However, what surprised Ye Ting was that Chu Zhe spoke up at this time.

“Xiao Ning’s ability to earn money is beyond doubt. She has a very strong investment acumen. At the start, Xiao Ning accumulated the initial capital by tutoring Jingyuan High School students. Then, she invested in the real estate industry, making her value rapidly increase by dozens of times. “Dad, Mom, you don’t have to worry. Xiao Ning spoke with me last night when we went out for a walk,” Chu Zhe explained with a smile.

Of course, he knew what Ye Ting had been thinking, but this time, he was on Chu Ning’s side.

When Chu Zhe was giving the explanation, he deliberately blurred out some key information points and only gave a general idea. He didn’t intend for Ye Ting believe his words, but it was fine as long as their parents believed it.
