Chapter 793 Yu Chuhui is angry; Zhu Zhe's younger brother comes to Shanghai.
Yu Chuhui was furious about Zhou Chen's decision to have his mother act as the child's caregiver, because Zhou Chen hadn't consulted her at all.
If Lucy hadn't brought it up today, Yu Chuhui would still be in the dark. Afterwards, Yu Chuhui made it clear that she was against it and didn't want her mother to suffer because of it.
Yu Chuhui angrily went back home, and Zhu Zhe immediately followed her.
Ye Zhenzhen glared at Zhou Chen, expressing her dissatisfaction. She really didn't know where Zhou Chen got the confidence to make such a decision. Did he think his romantic relationships weren't messy enough? Did he have to make things even more difficult for himself?
"Zhou Chen, I really don't know what to say to you. A-Chu's mother is your elder, not your family's maid. Don't you have any respect for her at all?"
"Now that Achu is angry, you've made a mess of this yourself, so you need to clean it up. I don't want to get involved. You should comfort her instead."
After Ye Zhenzhen finished speaking, she turned around and walked back to her home. She wanted to go and comfort Yu Chuhui, but after thinking about it, she decided to leave Zhou Chen alone. She would only be a third wheel there.
Zhou Chen was speechless, and Lucy felt a headache coming on, as if she had said something wrong.
Lucy looked at Zhou Chen with disbelief and asked, "Didn't you consult Yu Chuhui's mother about hiring her as a nanny?"
Zhou Chen nodded. After all, he planned to wait until his child was born, as it would be difficult for the nanny, Aunt Wang, to take care of two children. He would then tell Yu Chuhui about hiring her mother as a nanny.
I thought Yu Chuhui wouldn't object to the difficulties, but I didn't expect that Lucy would expose it before I even told Yu Chuhui.
"Don't worry, I'll apologize to Achu later. You should call Aunt Wang right away and learn some childcare skills from her. I'll go talk to Achu."
Zhou Chen and Lucy went home to settle the children, and after the nanny arrived and gave her some instructions, Zhou Chen headed towards the rented house.
Haha, the atmosphere inside the rented room wasn't very good either. Yu Chuhui was hiding in Zhu Zhe's arms and crying.
Zhu Zhe was patting Yu Chuhui on the shoulder to comfort her, lest the girl overthink things and get stuck in a rut.
"Alright, Chu, it's no big deal. Zhou Chen meant well, hoping your mother could live closer to you so you could take care of each other."
Besides, Lucy didn't agree, and she's already hired a nanny. Zhou Chen only had this idea but didn't act on it. So don't be angry anymore.
However, Zhu Zhe's words obviously failed to persuade Yu Chuhui. Yu Chuhui looked at Zhu Zhe and complained, "Zhou Chen should know that my mother is the person I care about the most. He didn't even discuss such a big matter with me. Don't you think he's being unreasonable?"
If Lucy hadn't told me today, I would still be completely in the dark. Even if it was just a thought, she should have told me. Don't you think she's being a bit too distant with me?
Or rather, Zhou Chen never really considered me family. Ever since Lucy got pregnant, Zhou Chen has paid less and less attention to me.
Now Lucy's sister is here to compete for his affections. Look how much Zhou Chen likes that little girl. What chance do I have then?
Zhu Zhe burst out laughing when she heard this. She put her arm around Yu Chuhui's shoulder and teased, "Zhou Chen just said that Lucy was jealous of the child. I didn't expect you to start doing it too. What are you competing with the child for affection?"
Haha, aren't you afraid people will laugh at you if you tell others? This isn't the Yu Chuhui I know. Where did your confidence go?
Ah Chu, you must remember that children have their own strengths, and you have your own strengths too. Why compare yourself to a child?
Furthermore, Zhou Chen's willingness to raise a child unrelated to him by blood as his own demonstrates that he is a responsible and conscientious person. You shouldn't overthink things.
As soon as Zhu Zhe finished speaking, Zhou Chen walked in. Upon seeing him, Zhu Zhe immediately said, "Zhou Chen, you're here. You should try to persuade A Chu. This girl is acting like a child."
Zhou Chen nodded, then sat down next to Yu Chuhui and said, "Chuhui, are you still angry? I've come to apologize to you."
There are some things I didn't mean to hide from you; it's just that I had these thoughts in my mind, but I didn't act on them, so I didn't tell you.
The reason I had the idea of hiring your mother as a nanny is entirely because she is your mother. I trust you and I trust your mother. Otherwise, why would I want to entrust my child to your mother to take care of?
Also, I know your mother is a good person. She is very conscientious and responsible in everything she does. Only a conscientious and responsible person can take good care of a child.
Look at all the good qualities your mother has, it's only natural that she was the first person I thought of. Besides, I'm not trying to exploit her labor, I just think she's a good fit.
Later, because Lucy objected, I didn't pursue the matter further. You should believe me on that point, after all, I'm not short of money, and there's really no need for me to bully your mother.
Haha, Zhou Chen knows how to fool people. He praised Yu Chuhui's mother to the skies, saying that someone as good as her is someone I can trust.
These words immediately brought a smile to Yu Chuhui's face, who was in a bad mood. Zhou Chen's reasoning sounded reasonable, after all, he was good at praising people.
Zhu Zhe, standing to the side, really wanted to laugh. He had tried to persuade Zhou Chen for so long to no avail, but Zhou Chen had settled things with just a few words. It seemed that if you wanted to control Yu Chuhui, you still had to rely on Zhou Chen.
Just as Zhu Zhe was lost in thought, her phone rang. Seeing the way her younger brother was addressed on the screen, Zhu Zhe immediately frowned.
They had a conflict on the phone during the Chinese New Year, and they haven't spoken on the phone for a long time. I wonder what my brother wants to talk to me about now.
As soon as Zhu Zhe answered the phone, her younger brother's voice came through, followed by some bad news: her brother had actually come to Shanghai. What was he up to?
"Big sister, can you hear me? Guess where I am right now?"
Hehe, I knew you'd guess wrong. Your precious little brother is in Shanghai. Shouldn't you come pick me up?
Haha, Zhu Zhe couldn't bring herself to welcome her younger brother's request. In her eyes, he was a big troublemaker who was all talk and no action. He had come to Shanghai at this time and still didn't know how to behave himself.
Zhu Zhe certainly didn't want to pick up his younger brother. Picking up his brother would mean revealing where he lived, and then his brother would come and provoke him even more.
Zhu Zhe then refused, saying, "Brother, why didn't you inform me in advance that you were coming to Shanghai for such a big event?"
"Oh dear, I'm working overtime right now and don't have time to pick you up. How about this, you find a place to settle down first, then find a job. I'll come see you when I have time."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhe's younger brother immediately wanted to curse, seeing that his sister didn't want to care about his affairs anymore.
Please, I came here to seek refuge with you, but you won't even see my brother. Isn't that going too far? This has really disappointed my brother.
