Chapter 59 A Cunning and Scheming Mind



Ning Yanshu noticed that Chen Limin's expression was a little off.

He walked over and took her hand. It was freezing cold there.

Ning Yanshu asked again, "Is it alright, Auntie?"

Chen Limin snapped out of her reverie.

Feeling the soft flesh in her palm, she was momentarily stunned.

Then, she abruptly pulled her hand back: "Suit yourself, come if you want. My shop is open every day, do you think I can stop you?"

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Ning Yanshu was finally happy again.

He jumped off the stool, walked to the door, turned back and waved to Chen Limin: "Goodbye, Auntie~"

Then, it skipped and hopped away.

Only Chen Limin remained in the shop.

She stared at the bowl of potstickers that had long since gone cold, her thoughts drifting away...

...

The new store has been open for a few days and business is booming.

In addition, Zhou Kai also took care of the boxed lunch business at the construction site, keeping Ning Wan and Aman extremely busy.

To support Ning Wan's career, Aman even temporarily gave up his job collecting recyclables.

The task of picking up the children fell directly on Ning You's shoulders.

At first, Ning You was lazy, complaining and grumbling. She said Ning Wan was abusing pregnant women and that she had no human rights.

But later, for some reason, he obediently asked to go on his own.

It was evening again.

When Ning You picked up Ning Yanshu and brought her back to the store, it was already a full half hour late for kindergarten dismissal time.

Ning Wan took the schoolbag from Ning Yanshu and asked the two of them suspiciously, "Where have you been? You've been acting all mysterious these past few days, and you've been coming back later and later."

"On the way back, I looked at the flowers and grass for a while, and enjoyed the evening breeze and nature, which is why I came back a little late..."

Ning You dared not look Ning Wan in the eye.

He changed the subject, clearly trying to evade the question: "Besides, what's wrong with coming home late? These are precious childhood memories; once you miss them, you've lost everything."

Ning Wan didn't want to listen to her talking nonsense in a serious tone.

She turned her gaze to Ning Yanshu, who was standing to the side.

Ning Yanshu stiffened, clearly becoming tense.

"I...I'm going to play with Aunt Chen~ Goodbye Mom, goodbye Auntie!"

After saying that, he ran away in a flash.

One of the suspects escaped, and Ning Wan had no choice but to give up.

With the danger over, Ning You breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Ning Wan turn back to her shop duties, she asked worriedly, "But is this really alright?"

"What?"

“Xiao Shu,” Ning You said, “has been running to that woman’s shop every day after school lately. Is that really okay?”

“What could possibly happen?” Ning Wan wasn’t worried at all: “She just has a bad temper, but she’s not some heinous villain.”

Ning Wan was not afraid of what Chen Limin might do to Ning Yanshu.

You can tell from the fact that Ning Yanshu's hands are always stuffed full of snacks when she comes back.

In fact, Chen Limin really likes children.

Since Ning Wan had said so, Ning You stopped insisting.

Just then, Aman came out of the kitchen, carrying a basket of vegetables: "Wanwan, I've washed all the vegetables for today."

"Thank you for your trouble. Please put it on the table."

After putting the vegetable basket down, Aman took the initiative to come over and take the schoolbag from Ningwan's hand.

As soon as he got his hands on it, Aman realized something was wrong.

He brought the backpack to his nose and sniffed it: "It smells like barbecue."

In an instant, all four eyes turned to Ning You.

Ning You turned her head away, pretending not to see: "Oh dear, I don't know what to eat tonight? How about we buy some Australian lobsters to try?"

“That’s a good idea.” Ning Wan replied calmly and without changing her expression, “How about we buy four? One for each of us… If that’s inconvenient, we can have Lu Chen deliver them.”

Ning You gritted her teeth: "...Deal!"

...

The next morning, Lu Chen was surprised to see Ning You, who usually loved to sleep in, get up early.

"Good morning." Ning You rubbed her sleepy eyes, looking like she was still dreaming.

Seeing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but walk over and touch her messy hair: "Why did you wake up so early? Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"

Ning You shook her head: "No, Wanwan said she was going to make me fish soup today."

Last night I lost a lot of money, losing four Australian dragons. I need to at least recoup some of my losses.

Even a mosquito's leg is meat!

Lu Chen pinched Ning You's cheek, revealing a layer of soft flesh: "You've indeed gained quite a bit of weight recently. Is Ning Wan's cooking really that good? Looks like I'll have to find a chance to try it next time."

"That goes without saying." Regaining her senses, Ning You slapped Lu Chen's hand away: "And also, don't touch me inappropriately."

Lu Chen wasn't angry. He said indulgently, "Aren't you going to the shop? Hurry up and get ready. I'll take you there today."

Since Lu Chen mentioned it last time, the family has hired a driver specifically to drive Ning You.

Ke Ningyou has always disliked strangers, and even more so, she hates being alone with them in a closed space.

This made her feel extremely insecure.

So when Ning You learned that Lu Chen was going to see her off, she was overjoyed: "Really? Then wait for me for 10 minutes... no, no, 5 minutes. Wait for me for 5 minutes."

Fearing that Lu Chen might change his mind, Ning You kept turning back every few steps, saying anxiously, "I'll be there soon, you have to wait for me!"

Lu Chen stood still and waved to her.

After the person ran back to the room, Lu Chen took out his phone from his pocket and transferred 200,000 yuan to Ning Wan.
