Chapter 902: You’re Being Really Annoying
“Is, is Dad alright?” Zhang Jiasen hastily asked. “Is he in the hospital?”
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. “No, fortunately he pulled through.”
Zhang Jiasen exhaled in relief, then he repeatedly said, “It’s good that he’s fine. What a relief.”
“Let’s get divorced. Zhang Jiasen, I’m serious,” said Ning Shu coldly.”
Zhang Jiasen hastily said, “Miaomiao, don’t be like this. I’m begging you. I apologize on my parents’ behalf. They’re just too worried about Brother-in-law.”
“Yeah, I know. That’s why I finally saw how much your mother disliked me. Enough, I’m hanging up. I need to sleep.” Ning Shu powered off her phone.
The next day, when she got to the factory, Zhang Jiasen’s mother and older sister were nowhere in sight. After getting used to the funeral-like wailing, this sudden quiet actually felt a little unnatural.
See? The moment she brought up divorce, Zhang Jiasen immediately retracted his claws. Based on his capability, he definitely had ways to calm down his family, but he hadn’t bothered.
When Ning Shu stepped inside the office, she was suddenly hugged by someone and the strong smell of smoke enveloped her. She wanted to push Zhang Jiasen away, but Zhang Jiasen just hugged her more tightly. His voice was hoarse as he cried, “Miaomiao.”
Ning Shu pushed Zhang Jiasen away. Zhang Jiasen looked a little stunned. He seemed to have been up all night as his eyes were bloodshot and he had a bit of a stubble. The shirt he was wearing was very wrinkled.
“Miaomiao, don’t be willful, alright?” Zhang Jiasen’s expression was filled with pain. “How can you reject our feelings just like this?”
What feelings? Ning Shu really wanted to spit in Zhang Jiasen’s face.
She looked at him indifferently as she said, “Jiasen, can you wait until I finish my work before talking about this? Don’t you know that I’m really tired? Your family makes me even more tired.”
“We should both take some time to calm down.” Ning Shu ignored Zhang Jiasen’s expression of pain.
Since Zhang Jiasen was here, she didn’t feel like working anymore so she directly turned to leave. Zhang Jiasen went to catch up with Ning Shu and grabbed her arm. “Miaomiao, don’t treat me like this. You don’t actually mean it when you say divorce, right? You’re just angry?”
Ning Shu shook off Zhang Jiasen’s hand. “I already said that we should take some time to calm down. You’re being really annoying. I’m already going stressed because of your mom, are you going to push me into a corner too?”
A trace of darkness flashed through Zhang Jiasen’s eyes. He pressed his lips together, then said, “Alright, alright. Miaomiao, don’t be angry.”
Zhang Jiasen took a deep breath, then said, “I’ll send you back.”
Ning Shu shook her head. She drove to the bank to take the things out from the safe. It was time to let Father Miao know about these things so that they could work together to deal with Zhang Jiasen, this heartless wolf.
When Ning Shu got back home, she went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, only to see that Aunt Ping was putting something in the simmering medical dish.
“What are you doing?” Ning Shu grabbed Aunt Ping’s arm and yanked her aside to prevent her from breaking the jar and destroying the evidence.
Aunt Ping was startled by Ning Shu. It was clear that she hadn’t expected her to suddenly come back and she tried to struggle free from Ning Shu’s grip.
Ning Shu directly pulled Aunt Ping to the living room. Aunt Ping’s face was pale with fear. “Miss, what are you doing? Let me go!”
“What’s going on?” Mother Miao came downstairs. Ning Shu said with a cold expression, “Mom, call the police. Aunt Ping was poisoning the medicinal dish.”
“Madame, I didn’t!” Aunt Ping hastily shook her head.
Mother Miao was astonished. “How’s that possible? Aunt Ping has been with the Miao family for so many years.”
Ning Shu had the other two servants keep a hold on Aunt Ping, then went to the kitchen to get the jar. She said to Mother Miao, “I’m going to take this to the hospital to get a lab test done. Don’t let her go before I come back.”
