Chapter 1900: Baby, We’re Leaving Now
Chapter 1900: Baby, We’re Leaving Now
“I’m going to run some errands.” Ning Shu walked away.
Back at the hotel, Ning Shu took out her suitcase, bought a plane ticket online, and prepared to leave.
Ning Shu turned her head towards the sleeping child on her back. “Baby, we’re leaving now.”
Ning Shu picked up the suitcase, checked out of the room, and left the hotel. She watched the vehicles coming and going. She stood alone, looking very lonely.
However, she was cheerful. She finally didn’t have to face those people anymore. She couldn’t feel any warmth from them. It was better to be alone.
Ning Shu arrived at the airport by car. While waiting for the plane, she posted her recording to the neighborhood forum.
Although the video was given to An Jinwei, she had an audio recording of An Jinwei claiming that he was righteous in cheating.
Ning Shu posted the recording to the forum with a smile, and then the phone rang. The call was from Chen Ning’s mother.
Ning Shu answered the phone and Chen Ning’s mother’s reproaching voice came from the other side, “Where are you? Come back quickly. Let’s discuss what’s happening. Don’t take the child around everywhere. Come back and stay at home, you’re still in your confinement period.”
“Your brother’s words sounded offensive, but that’s just how he is. You know he does care about you.” Chen Ning’s mother said, “Hurry up and bring the child back. This is your first child. Do you even know how to take care of the child?”
“Mom, I’m going to live in another place for a while. You don’t have to worry about me,” Ning Shu said lightly.
“Where are you going? You’re a woman carrying a child around. That’s very dangerous. Stop messing around and come back already. Your brother is about to get married. Are you not planning on coming back for the wedding?” Chen Ning’s mother immediately said, dissatisfied.
“You are my daughter. Do you want to cut off relations with us by doing this?” Chen Ning’s mother said angrily. “I raised you until you were all grown up, but you didn’t even tell me or your father that you got divorced, you just made the decision on your own. Now you feel that your parents are shallow and eying the money in your pocket.”
Of course. Ning Shu said, “I just want to have a change of pace. You guys don’t need to worry about me. I’m getting on the plane, so I’ll hang up first.”
Ning Shu hung up the phone and took out the SIM card. Then she broke it and threw it in the trash.
The airport notified her that they were beginning the boarding process. Ning Shu sat down with her baby in her arms, then gazed out the window of the plane at the blue sky and white clouds.
Sometimes family members were a burden. All people had to live for others. Just a few years, just give her a few years to herself, to do what she wants to do.
If she went back to her maiden family, it would be the same as being a daughter-in-law, and she’d have to face constant complaints and attacks.
Ning Shu looked at the white and tender child in her arms. She couldn’t remember how many times she had ended up being a babysitter. It was enough that she had been a wet nurse last time, but this time, she was the actual mother and had to even breastfeed the child.
Ning Shu kept looking at the sky outside the window. She let out a long sigh, dispersing the depression and irritability in her heart.
Even Ning Shu, who didn’t regard An Jinwei as her husband, was still angered, so it was easy to imagine how much despair Chen Ning, who had depended and relied on her husband, must’ve felt.
Now she was finally free of him. People started a family because they wanted to support and give warmth to each other. A cold relationship like this would only make people feel desperate and pained.
After experiencing so many worlds, Ning Shu felt that there was nothing more dependable than living by relying on yourself and living with your own dignity.
They said that having a good marriage was better than having a good job.
So the question was: was it easier to “marry well” than to “work well?”
Women also had to focus on self-improvement. Otherwise, the marriage they depended on wouldn’t last very long.
