Chu Ning was satisfied after taking a look round the house and decided to return home. She was going to find time to buy some daily necessities for this place. Maybe she would stay here occasionally in the future.

When Chu Ning walked to the gate of the community, Chu Ning’s parents were returning at the same time.

“Mom and Dad, you’re back!” Chu Ning greeted them warmly.

“Xiao Ning, why are you back so late?” Chu Ning’s father looked at the time and asked.

“After school, I went to the new house that the school gifted me. Today, my form teacher gave me the key and the title deed.”

Chu Ning took the key out and waved it in her hand.

“Oh, this is a good thing. Xiao Ning, you’re really an outstanding child. You’re all very sensible. But your mom and I can’t create better living conditions for you…” Chu Ning’s father said with some regret.

However, the careful Mrs. Chu discovered at this time that Chu Ning’s gait was not quite right. The frequency of her steps was obviously uneven. Thus, she asked, “Xiao Ning, what happened to your right leg?”

“Ah… Mom, I’m fine. It’s just a small graze. I accidentally knocked it during physical education class.” Chu Ning did not expect that even though she had tried her best to hide it, it was still discovered.

“Xiao Ning, are you hurt?” Mr. Chu immediately reacted.

“I’m fine. Look, I can still walk normally. Let’s go, let’s go home. I’ll cook today.” Chu Ning pushed Mr. Chu from behind, towards their house…

But when they reached home, Mr. and Mrs. Chu were still worried.

“Xiao Ning, show us the location of the wound. Why don’t we take you to the hospital to have a look?” Mr. Chu’s tone was a little heavy. Obviously, he was worried about Chu Ning’s injury.

“I’m afraid that when you take me to the hospital, the wound would have already healed on its own.”

Chu Ning said helplessly, but she still obediently rolled up her pants to her knees. The bleeding had already stopped and there was even a bandage on it. However, under the contrast of her snow-white skin, the area of the wound was still quite large.

“Tsk… how is this acceptable? Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital!”

Mr. Chu immediately became anxious when he saw the wound. Ever since this daughter had returned home, she had never had a good day. Now, she had even gotten injured…

Thinking of this, Mr. Chu could not help but feel a touch of sadness.

He could only blame himself for being useless. If Chu Ning had still stayed in the Ye family, she would probably be at the best hospital in M City by now!

However, when she returned to this family, her living conditions had plummeted. Conversely, she had to give back to the family.

“There’s really no need, Dad. If you don’t believe me, don’t tell me you don’t believe what the doctors in our school hospital say? The auntie in the school hospital said that people of my age recover very quickly. As long as we have enough nutrition, we’d be fine in a few days.”

Chu Ning said hurriedly. What kind of joke was this? If they really went to a big hospital and had a full check-up, even if there was nothing wrong with her, a month’s worth of her father’s hard-earned money would probably be gone.

She did not mind. She could still afford a few thousand yuan. After all, she still had a few hundred thousand yuan on her. However, to her father, a few thousand yuan was the Chu family’s monthly living expenses!

The commotion in the living room quickly attracted Chu Jing’s attention. However, when he understood the whole story, he just laughed and didn’t care anymore. It was just as Chu Ning said, it wasn’t a big deal. It was just a superficial injury.

“Then… I’ll go to the wet market to buy some meat!” Mr. Chu opened the door and hurried away before Chu Ning could say anything…

“Sigh, Dad is really… Oh right, Mom, where’s fourth brother? Why isn’t he back yet?” Chu Ning could only change the topic stiffly.

“Xiao Huan? He has a lot of matters to settle at school recently, so he might be busy these two days and won’t have time to come back. It’s just that Xiao Ning, the injury on your leg, is it really not serious? Why don’t you let your dad take you to the hospital to have a look?”

Chu Ning’s mother looked at Chu Ning, who was much taller than her, with a heavy heart. She, too, felt a deep sense of guilt towards Chu Ning.

“Mom, I’m really fine. If you say more, I’m really going to be angry!”

Chu Ning felt that even in the Ye family, it would just be this way. However, the financial conditions of the two families could not be compared. If Chu Ning’s parents only had 100 yuan in their pockets, they would be willing to spend it all on Chu Ning, but if the Ye family had 100 yuan, they might not make such a choice!
