C70 (2/2)

Chu Xuan's voice came from the living room: ”The sky isn't completely dark yet, save some electricity.”

”Save what? Don't look bad! ”I don't need the money to pay for the electricity!” Chu Yu shouted towards the living room, Chu Yu washed the vegetables and soaked them in water in the basin, then took out the meat from the bag and drank it, then placed the chopping block on the table.

After a while, a few simple stir-fried dishes were served. He then sat down with the bowl and chopsticks in his hands. It was already past seven o'clock.

”Little Chu, it's been really hard on you. Dad is letting you down …” Chu Xuan's eyes fell on Chu Yu's hands, the little bubble that was created from the burning oil during the cooking process was extremely eye-catching.

His mood was mixed, and his eyes were filled with guilt.

He remembered that Chu Yu never touched the Yang Spring Water, she also hated the smell of food. With the perfect housekeeping arrangements, even when the Chu Family was in dire straits, Chu Yu had not done anything himself.

”Dad, don't say anymore, isn't it good like this now? Eat quickly, the food will be cold in a moment. ” While muttering that, he picked up a piece of meat and placed it into Chu Xuan's bowl.

Hot tears rolled down her face and fell into the bowl. She wiped them away with her hand without a change in her expression and continued to eat.

Judging from her father's expression, she could tell that he must have been thinking of the past.

She used to be unable to tell the difference between different types of vegetables and had never stepped into the market before, but now she was able to easily cut prices in the market and could even get the stall owner to gift her a handful of spring onions.

Although many things had changed, life still had to continue. Different ways of living were just for the sake of tempering her. Chu Yu was a little impressed with herself at times. She had done all of the things that she thought were impossible in the past.

Oh yeah, Dad, Chu Jingnian will help us settle the matter of hiring the lawyer, you don't have to worry about that. Sensing that the atmosphere was too heavy, Chu Yu changed the topic.

”Chu Jingnian?” Chu Xuan paused for a moment as his hands slightly frowned, as if he was trying to remember this person. The name made him feel that it was very familiar, but he could not remember who it was.

Sensing Chu Xuan's strangeness, Chu Yu said casually, ”Mn, we were classmates in the past, and happened to come into contact with people related to the law.”

Chu Xuan nodded as if he thought of something, and a boulder in his heart was gradually put down. Since they were Chu Yu's friends, then they should be able to do things reliably. Moreover, they had sufficient materials in their hands, so from this, it looked like there was hope for them to win the case.

After eating dinner, Chu Yu went downstairs to wash the dishes.

After living in this newly rented house for almost a week, Chu Yu felt that he had basically made up for all the work he had done in his previous life.

Chu Xuan was used to having servants in his house, so he would never do anything well. Naturally, everything fell on Chu Yu, including the small details of his daily life.

Throwing the trash bag in his hand into the large barrel downstairs, the moment Chu Yu turned around, he was hit by the lights of the cars that drove in front of him.

He stood by the side of the road for a long time, waiting for the cars to pass, but he did not see any movement from the car in front of him. Chu Yu suspiciously frowned and was about to go around, but the car slowly stopped in front of him and rolled down the window, and a familiar face entered his sight.
