Chapter 133 Don't Be a Chen Shimei

In fact, he also has the bad nature of men. He can't stand seeing women crying for him, can't stand seeing women shed tears for him.

However, whenever he thought of his gentle and virtuous wife Gan Ning and his unborn baby, an indescribable sense of responsibility would surge in his heart.

For the sake of his family, he must be strong and must not be as heartless and ungrateful as Chen Shimei. This contradictory mentality often makes him struggle painfully when facing emotional entanglements.

"I'm sorry, Jenny! It's all fate. If there's an afterlife, I will never let you down..."

After hearing these words, the tension in Zhenni's heart instantly collapsed. After years of waiting, she got such a result.

She couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching cry of "Wow!", and then, her long-suppressed emotions surged into her heart like a flood. She lay on the table and cried, tears falling like beads from a broken string.

Fortunately, there were few people in the teahouse at that time, otherwise some nosy uncles and aunts would definitely come over and teach Liu Zhiye a lesson.

You tell me, how can a grown man like you bully a woman?

……

After seeing off Jenny who left sadly, Liu Zhiye sat there alone, the cigarette butt in his hand emitting a faint smoke, and his expression became extremely lost.

This era is no longer the old society full of feudal constraints, nor is it the era of open-mindedness in later generations. This is an era that emphasizes both moral norms and family responsibilities.

Besides, Gan Ning's personality and Zhen Ni's family background would not allow him to do so. It was impossible to have the best of both worlds.

Thinking of Jenny's decisive words when she left, Liu Zhiye still felt a lingering fear.

She said sharply that she would never give up, and the meaning behind this was puzzling.

Perhaps he had a deep grudge against someone, hopefully it was directed at someone else, but no matter what, he sincerely prayed that this matter would not hurt Gan Ning.

Liu Zhiye went home worriedly. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw his mother Deng Ru looking at him in confusion, wondering why he came back so early today.

Deng Ru asked casually, "Zhiye, are you off work now?" Hearing his mother's question, Liu Zhiye forced a smile and replied, "Ah! Mom, I'm off work!"

Then, Deng Ru curiously glanced behind him and asked doubtfully, "Where's Xiao Ning? Didn't you go to pick her up and go home with you?"

Liu Zhiye slapped his forehead, and was shocked to find that he had neglected it. Recently, due to his busy work, he came home later and later, and was not able to pick Gan Ning up often.

Today, he unexpectedly came back directly without fulfilling this responsibility. Thinking of Gan Ning's lonely figure, Liu Zhiye was filled with helplessness and guilt.

He nodded silently, feeling a surge of guilt in his heart, as if his love was not enough and he had not given Gan Ning enough care and companionship.

Deng Ru saw this and glared at him fiercely, saying, "Why don't you go now? What are you doing standing here?"

"Hey! Hey! I'll go right away." Liu Zhiye left with a dusty face.

Jiaodaokou Subdistrict Office.

Gan Ning was pleasantly surprised when she saw Liu Zhiye. She couldn't help but feel overjoyed because someone hadn't come to pick her up from get off work for a long time.

The appearance of Liu Zhiye seemed to bring light back to her world, making her feel extremely happy and satisfied.

Seeing this scene, Liu Zhiye felt deeply guilty and the heaviness of his emotions was beyond words.

After they got in the car together, Liu Zhiye looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention, then he kissed Gan Ning on the cheek with a "click". This scene seemed particularly intimate.

Gan Ning felt both happy and a little shy about his occasional intimacy. This complex intertwined emotion made her feel warm and happy.

Liu Zhiye's heart suddenly moved, and a pair of glittering "cockscomb red jade bracelets" quietly appeared in his hands.

This was not an ordinary item, but one that he had carefully obtained from an old man. Although he had only exchanged a few dozen kilograms of seafood for it, the other party looked like he had gotten a great bargain. While Gan Ning was looking down in delight, he quietly put it on her wrist. Gan Ning suddenly felt a chill on her wrist and woke up.

When Gan Ning looked at her wrist, she discovered a red jade bracelet.

The color of this bracelet is bright, just like a rooster's comb. The jade is delicate and transparent, so it is called Cockscomb Red Jade.

The appearance of this bracelet adds a touch of bright color to her elegant temperament.

Gan Ning covered her cherry lips, extremely surprised. "Wow! What a beautiful bracelet. Zhiye, is this for me?"

Liu Zhiye asked with a smile: "Xiao Ning, do you like it?"

Gan Ning nodded her head repeatedly, "Yeah!" She liked it so much, she liked it so much!
Seeing that Gan Ning liked it, Liu Zhiye was also happy, "Haha, as long as you like it, it's yours if you like it." As he said that, he started the car and prepared to go home.

Gan Ning gestured at the bracelet with both hands and liked it more and more the more she looked at it.

Suddenly, she realized something was wrong and looked at Liu Zhiye, who was concentrating on driving, with a puzzled look.

She frowned, observing his movements and expressions carefully, feeling a little uneasy.

"Zhi Ye! Are you hiding something from me?" she asked doubtfully, with deep worry in her eyes.

When Liu Zhiye heard this, he felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer and almost drove the car into the ditch. It was amazing, the powerful sixth sense of a woman, and at this moment, cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

"Xiao Ning, why do you say that?" Liu Zhiye responded with pretended confusion, trying to hide his nervousness, but his heart was beating fast, wondering what she had discovered.

Gan Ningning gazed deeply into Liu Zhiye's eyes, observing him meticulously, with a hint of doubt in her tone, "Really? Then why are you so abnormal today?"

After hearing this, Liu Zhiye finally felt relieved. It turned out that she was just being suspicious. He pretended to be angry, which made Gan Ningning giggle. "You are so good, Xiao Ning! Now you don't even believe me. Just wait and see how I will deal with you when I get home."

"Okay! Okay! I know I was wrong, I'm just worried about you! Don't be angry..." Gan Ning was helpless. It seemed that this stinky man was really angry, so she had to comfort Liu Zhiye.

Liu Zhiye couldn't hide his anger anymore and laughed out loud. Gan Ning knew she had been fooled, so she slapped him a few times in annoyance.

Finally, Liu Zhiye's face could no longer hide the smile. He laughed out loud, and Gan Ning knew that she had been successfully deceived by Liu Zhiye, so she patted his shoulder gently with a hint of anger.

The two of them returned home laughing and playing all the way, and first went to the east wing to say hello to the two elders.

"Mom! We're back, let me help you..." As soon as she stepped into the house, Gan Ning saw her mother-in-law busy cooking in the kitchen. She immediately bent down, eager to help her cut vegetables.

Seeing that Gan Ning was very busy, Deng Ru hurried forward to stop her. At this time, she was already nearly five months pregnant, with a large belly, and a loving expression on her face. She said softly: "Oh! My little ancestor, you should take a rest. You are not needed for such a small job."

Seeing her mother-in-law's resolute attitude, Gan Ning had no choice but to give up. She sat down quietly on the small stool and chatted with her mother-in-law to relieve her boredom.

The atmosphere between the mother and daughter was warm and pleasant, they talked and laughed, and their relationship was even better than that of a biological daughter. Liu Zhiruo had the most say in this regard.

In the evening, the family of four sat around on the Kang in the east room, enjoying a warm dinner. The warmth of the Kang and the aroma of the food intertwined to create a warm atmosphere of home.

The kang table was filled with carefully prepared delicacies, including the delicious sea cucumber and egg soup, the fragrant and tempting stir-fried pork with green peppers, the sweet and sour peanuts with old vinegar, and the fragrant half old hen stewed.

Looking at this table of delicious food, one can't help but want to eat it. Such a standard of living is not available to ordinary bureau-level officials in these days.

"Xiao Ning! Don't just eat the peppers! Eat more meat. Have a chicken leg. This is specially made for you to nourish your body. You should eat more." Seeing that Gan Ning only picked up some vegetables, Deng Ru took the initiative to put the chicken leg into her bowl with chopsticks.

"Mom! Xiao Ning doesn't want to eat it, so just give me the chicken leg!" Liu Zhiye deliberately livened up the atmosphere and teased Mo Zi.

Deng Ru glanced at him sideways when she heard this and said, "Why are you so arrogant? Why are you eating chicken legs? Here, eat this." Then she put a piece of chicken butt in his bowl.
