A few days later, at Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai.
Chu Yuening looked at the handsome man in a black coat, feeling reluctant.
Her eyes were red, and she couldn't help but go forward and hug him tightly, burying her face in his broad and strong chest, greedily absorbing his warmth and breath.
"Brother Zheng, wait for me to come back."
Ying Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl in his arms. His cold and noble face was now filled with tenderness, and his deep black eyes contained only the shadow of one person.
He hugged the girl's soft body back, leaned over slightly, and placed a pious and restrained kiss on the top of her head.
"Okay, I'll wait for you forever."
Half an hour later.
As the roar of the propeller sounded, the plane slowly took off and gradually merged into the blue sky and white clouds.
Chu Yuening looked out the car window at the increasingly smaller city and the ant-like figures, and secretly made up her mind.
When she comes back, she must be brave for once.
Brother Zheng has already taken ninety-nine steps towards her, so let her take the last step.
The sun was running towards her on its own initiative, so why should she be afraid?
More than an hour later, the plane arrived in Jiangsu Province.
As soon as Chu Yuening got off the plane, someone specially arranged by Ying Zheng came to pick her up and drove her directly home, saving her the trouble of traveling all the way.
Once again, she was moved by his tenderness.
After a long time, we arrived at Chujia Village.
In recent years, thanks to the country's development and construction, the conditions in the village have been getting better and better, with smooth roads, neat buildings, and numerous small shops...
Because the driver drove directly to her doorstep, Chu Yuening was lucky enough to avoid the intelligence organization at the village entrance.
As soon as she got off the car, tears instantly welled up in her eyes when she saw the little old man sitting at the door waiting.
As soon as Grandpa Chu saw his granddaughter, he immediately went forward to greet her with a smile.
"Ning'er, you're back. Why have you lost so much weight? Were you hungry on the way here?"
"Come in quickly, Grandpa has cooked your favorite dishes..."
"Okay, I really miss grandpa's braised pork!"
The reunited grandparents chatted and laughed as they went home to eat. The empty and quiet courtyard finally became lively.
But this rare happiness was broken on New Year's Eve.
Chu Yuening stared at the family outside the door, her face as cold as ice.
A father who favors boys over girls, a stepmother who looks sweet but is actually bitter, and a stepbrother who has been spoiled to the point of being lawless.
They seemed to be calculating something, and at this moment they pretended to be polite and behaved like human beings.
Even though she was not welcome, she could not selfishly ignore her grandfather's feelings.
After all, they are your own flesh and blood, raised with great care.
How could grandpa not miss his son?
Sure enough, during the reunion dinner in the evening, although the old man had a stern face, the relief in his eyes could not be concealed.
However, the family with ulterior motives did not keep up the appearance for long before their true colors were revealed.
"Dad, let's leave this house to Guangzong in the future!"
"No, this is for Ning'er."
"She's a girl who's going to marry into another family anyway, so why would she need a house?"
"Yes, Xiao Ning, listen to your aunt's advice. Your brother is the heir of the Chu family, so it is only natural for him to inherit the family property."
"Don't worry, you won't suffer any loss. When your brother grows up, you will have the help of your mother's family."
"I won't help this evil woman! She stole my dad and my house, what a bad woman!"
The family was aggressive, with ugly expressions of greed on their faces.
Chu Yuening sat alone, expressionless and silent, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
In fact, her thoughts were very simple.
The house belongs to grandpa and she has no right to interfere.
She is already very grateful to her grandfather for raising her to adulthood. No matter what choice he makes, she will do her best to be filial to him.
However, what moved Chu Yuening immensely was that this frail old man once again stood firmly in front of her, just like he had eighteen years ago.
“Enough!!!”
Grandpa Chu was completely heartbroken at this moment. He slammed the table and roared in anger.
"I've already made a will. From now on, all of this old man's stuff belongs to Ning'er. Don't even think about it!"
"Since you don't want to eat properly, then go back to your house and eat!"
What should have been a heartwarming reunion dinner ended in a farce.
After the family left in disgrace, Grandpa Chu sighed heavily and then kindly comforted his granddaughter.
"Ning'er, don't be afraid. With Grandpa here, our daughter will always have a home to return to."
"good."
Chu Yuening replied with a choked voice, her watery eyes filled with tears of emotion.
Girls are born without a home.
But grandpa gave her a home.
As the night deepens, the outside becomes increasingly lively.
The laughter of children, the bursting of fireworks, the cheers of the crowd...compose the celebratory music of New Year's Eve.
However, human joys and sorrows are not the same.
The shadow of the original family is like a thorn. Even if it is pulled out, it will still hurt.
In the dark bedroom, Chu Yuening curled up on the bed, hugging the large teddy bear that Brother Zheng gave her tightly, trying to draw a little warmth and comfort from it.
At this moment, a crisp notification sound suddenly came from the mobile phone.
She turned on her phone with a gloomy look and found a familiar ID on the screen.
[Waiting for a rose to bloom: Yue Ning, happy New Year's Eve. ]
After seeing this blessing, Chu Yuening finally felt a little better.
[The Moon Chasing the Sun: Brother Zheng, Happy New Year's Eve.]
[Waiting for a rose to bloom: Are you unhappy? ]
[The Moon Chasing the Sun: Brother Zheng...how did you know? ]
Chu Yuening felt a sore nose and tears welled up in her eyes, falling one by one.
