Chapter 1918: Everyone’s Hearts Are Made Out of Flesh and Blood

Commoners were most afraid of dealing with the government. Going to court was very troublesome and embarrassing.
Ning Shu bought a plane ticket and left. The Chen family still wanted to wriggle into Ning Shu’s good graces, but she never said a word to them and they didn’t know any of her contact information.
This made the young couple extremely upset. They thought that since there was a capable sister, it would be easier to borrow money in the future, but the other party just ignored them like they were dirt.
What a miser. After earning money, she still didn’t support her family, such an ungrateful thing.
Chen An complained to his parents, “Look at what kind of good daughter you raised. She’s so cruel and ruthless, hiding away alone for fear that we poor relatives will go and stick to her.”
Chen Ning’s mother pursed her lips. “You are also a capable person. No matter what happened, you never showed any concern for your sister. Everyone’s hearts are made out of flesh and blood. Your sister has been disillusioned to the point where she doesn’t want to care about you.”
“I’m still her younger brother no matter what,” Chen An said, uncaring. “Who else would be as heartless as her?”
“Enough. If others flourish, then that’s their business. I’ll just pretend that I never had this daughter. I told you guys to stay home before, but you two still insisted on coming with us. Now, this proves that you’ve been flattering someone completely indifferent to you.” Chen Ning’s father was very angry. He turned around and left.
He really hated this daughter for not giving him any face.
Ning Shu ignored the Chen family’s grievances, annoyance, and criticisms and left with her suitcase. She returned to her small apartment and helped make a table full of delicious food with her neighbors in the same building for the Spring Festival.
The more, the merrier? So what? They weren’t like-minded so why should she care? If Ning Shu had to choose, she would rather live this kind of life.
After the Spring Festival, Ning Shu started working again. Sometimes family members were really inferior to colleagues or even strangers.
Some family members manipulated you by using familial affection: because you are my daughter, because you are my sister, because you are…
Just because they were family, it was reasonable to let the person pay, pay endlessly, while they weren’t even grateful.
If you lived well, you had to support your brothers and sisters. If you lived badly, then you deserved it.
Human nature really made people despair!
Sometimes, people were happy just imagining what life should be like, but fantasizing about an ideal world wouldn’t solve any problems.
Seeing reality clearly and planning ahead of time was truly being responsible for your own life.
After the Spring Festival, the An family decided to find a wife for An Jinwei.
Ever since An Jinwei met the radiant Chen Ning, who was also an outstanding lawyer and earned a lot of money, he’d wanted to start anew with her.
However, the old couple didn’t agree. The current Chen Ning couldn’t be suppressed by the An family. Even if she remarried into the An family, she’d definitely be a despotic existence. Everyone in the An family would become her slaves.
Chen Ning had already caused the An family to fall to this state when she had nothing. If she came back now, when she had everything, wouldn’t the An family have to live completely according to her whims?
They wanted to find a wife, not a queen.
Regardless of whether An Jinwei wanted to or not, he went on a blind date. An Jinwei remarried a woman around his age. This woman was also divorced and had given birth to a child, but the child was given to the father.
An Jinwei was unwilling. A divorced woman, especially one who has given birth to a child, was completely different from the good woman he imagined.
He felt that he had picked up worn-out shoes that others didn’t want. She wasn’t even as good as his ex-wife. Chen Ning was like another person now, far different from before.
