Chapter 160 I’m back
Chapter 160 I’m back
The quarrel between Tang Ruoqing and Xu Chuning not far from the teaching building was heard not only by Shen Yubai and Ban Shu, but also by several other students who happened to pass by.
After listening to the conversation between the two, everyone suddenly realized that Xu Chuning was Xu Yiming's biological daughter, and Xu Zhiyan had occupied Xu Chuning's nest.
Very quickly, the news spread.
That's why Xu Chuning's reappearance attracted the attention of so many classmates.
Xu Chuning: “…”
Fortunately, class was still in session, and although everyone was curious about Xu Chuning and Xu Zhiyan's affairs, no one dared to ask right away.
Xu Chuning accepted the gazes of his classmates, adjusted his mindset as much as possible, and focused on reading and doing homework.
The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the two students sitting in front of Xu Chu Ning turned their heads and said, "Ning Ning."
"..."
Xu Chu Ning helplessly put down the pen in his hand and said quickly, "It's just as you heard."
Lin Dandan: "Oh my god, you are really miserable."
Chen Mengyao nodded in agreement, "Yes, how dare Xu Zhiyan treat you like that before."
Listening to the two people talking back and forth, Xu Chu Ning was stunned and asked in surprise: "Don't you two think I'm going too far?"
"Of course not."
Lin Dandan glared at her unhappily, "We are not Tang Ruoqing."
"Yeah, besides, you didn't kill her, so how could that be excessive?"
Deng Xitong spoke up at the right time, "Murder is against the law."
Chen Mengyao: "We are just giving an example. Anyway, I think Ningning did nothing wrong in this matter."
Lin Dandan nodded, "By the way, Ningning, can we interview you?"
Xu Chuning: "What?"
"How does it feel to be back at the Xu family?" Lin Dandan was curious, and the other students also pricked up their ears.
Xu Chu Ning was stunned, then smiled and said, "I didn't go back to the Xu family."
Chen Mengyao and the others: "Ah?"
"...What?" She lowered her eyes and said, "I can't be ungrateful."
Lin Dandan: "...No, but won't the Xu family have any objections if you do this?"
Chen Mengyao thought more clearly than Lin Dandan, "What objection can the Xu family have? Come on, Aunt You has raised their daughter for more than ten years. Ningning wants to stay with her. Can they snatch her away by force?"
Lin Dandan hesitated, "That's what I said."
She muttered quietly, "Then I thought that after Ningning returned to the Xu family, her conditions would improve in all aspects."
At least, she didn't need to be so frugal with lunch, always eating two vegetarian dishes and only buying a meat dish occasionally.
At least, she can change her school uniform every year like most of her classmates.
She can also learn many talents and know many more things.
Hearing this, Xu Chu Ning smiled and said, "It's okay. It's the same now."
She thought for a moment and said slowly, "I should come back in the future."
The two nodded in understanding.
After Xu Chuning's explanation, new gossips arose in the school.
Most people are good at adapting to the situation. In the next few days, Xu Chu Ning could clearly feel that more students greeted her at school. There were even many students she didn't know who could call her by name.
She was a little amused and confused about this.

In the blink of an eye, Saturday is here.
Saturday is the day Xu Chuning and You Shuzhen move.
The shop was closed today, and the mother and daughter slept until six in the morning before getting up to pack. There wasn't much to pack, as they rented the house on an annual basis and had no way to cancel the lease, so they didn't move some of the less important and seldom used things for the time being.
It was past seven o'clock when the people from the moving company, as well as Xu Yiming and Shen Yubai, came over.
Xu Chuning and You Shuzhen wanted to move some of the items downstairs, but Shen Yubai stopped them. "Just wait in the car first. I'll supervise the work here."
Xu Chu Ning thought about it and said, "Alright, call me if you have anything."
Shen Yubai: "Don't worry."
With a moving company, moving is much faster than you think.
The move was completed in just one morning.
Being too tired at noon, Xu Yiming arranged for takeout to be delivered to the new home. In the evening, You Shuzhen would cook for a formal housewarming party.
After dinner, a group of people started cleaning.
The new home that Xu Yiming and his family arranged for Xu Chuning was very large and had four rooms.
The moment she opened the door to her own room, Xu Chu Ning felt like crying for some reason. After so many years in Jiangcheng, it seemed that she finally had her own room.
However, she still had to say that she was happy when she squeezed together with You Shuzhen before.
In addition to Xu Chuning and You Shuzhen's rooms, there is also a study and guest room.
The study is convenient for Xu Chuning to read and do homework. As for the guest room, Ye Qiongfang knew that You Shuzhen's mother was in her hometown, and she specifically asked her if she wanted to bring the old lady to Jiangcheng. There is enough room here and they can live together.
You Shuzhen smiled and refused.
Her mother is not willing to come here for the time being. Living in her hometown is comfortable and free, and she prefers life there.
After listening to You Shuzhen, Ye Qiongfang nodded and said with a smile, "Then leave it to your other daughter."
You Shuzhen paused.
Ye Qiongfang took the initiative to reach out and hug her, and said slowly: "Sister Zhen, don't worry, Yiming and I will work hard to help you find her back."
At the beginning, Ye Qiongfang was indeed confused and she didn't think it through.
But after she figured it out, she became clear-headed and independent. She was a gentle and thoughtful person. Otherwise, she would not have been able to become the mistress of the Xu family.
You Shuzhen nodded excitedly, "Thank you."
"I should thank you." Ye Qiongfang said frankly, "You raised Ningning very well and educated her very well."
The two of them complimented each other.
Xu Chuning stayed in his room for a while, and then cleaned up with Deng Xitong and the others.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, You Shuzhen prepared to cook.
Xu Chuning wanted to help, but You Shuzhen refused. Finally, Ye Qiongfang followed into the kitchen and said, "Sister Zhen, I also want to learn how to cook. Can you teach me?"
She said a little embarrassedly, "I want to learn it, so that at least one day in the future I can cook a meal for Ningning myself."
You Shuzhen smiled sweetly: "No problem."
The two were busy in the kitchen, and Xu Yiming would occasionally go in to help.
Xu Chuning turned her head to look at the kitchen from time to time. When she saw the three of them getting along well, and when she saw You Shuzhen gradually relax and become less restrained, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Shen Yubai called her, "Xu Chuning."
Xu Chuning tilted his head, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yubai: "I'm going downstairs to buy some things, would you like to join me?"
"?"
Xu Chu Ning was puzzled and looked up at the sun outside. "What do you want to buy?"
Shen Yubai looked at her motionless appearance, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry about it for now, just tell me whether you want to go or not."
"..."
After struggling for three seconds, Xu Chu Ning reluctantly agreed, "Let's go."
They changed their shoes and went out.
When the elevator opened to the first floor, Xu Chu Ning was suddenly hugged by someone who was coming towards him.
She was caught off guard and was about to push him away when she heard Shen Sinian's excited and energetic voice, "Ningning, I'm back! Did you miss me?!"
