Chapter 214: Madam Chu Apologizes

Madam Chu and Chu Yue had almost completely fallen out.

Chu Bolin glanced at Chu Li on the hospital bed.

He knew just how much this son protected his mother.

He would wake up sooner or later.

Thinking this, Chu Bolin's tone softened a little.

"A Lin, I didn't say I absolutely had to kick you out; I just want to go home. You talk to A Li and let me go home."

He pleaded, humble to the extreme, and Chu Yue glared at him fiercely, frustrated by his lack of backbone.

That wasn't what they had said before they came.

Madam Chu was very disdainful, "You have so many homes outside, why don't you just go to one of those?"

Chu Bolin felt a bit embarrassed; those women had immediately cut off contact with him after hearing he had been kicked out of the Chu family.

Even when he went to their doors, he was either driven away or they simply wouldn't open the door.

Not one of them had a conscience.

He was currently living off Chu Yue's support, but in reality, Chu Yue also had a huge hole to fill.

So he had no choice but to come and bow his head to his ex-wife.

"A Lin, wherever you are, that is my home."

Chu Bolin was full of affection, looking at his ex-wife with an exceptionally lingering gaze.

It was just a pity that Madam Chu had long since given up on him.

"Get lost, don't come here and disgust me."

"You..." Chu Bolin had used up all the groveling of his entire life on Madam Chu.

But no matter how he bowed his head and admitted his mistakes, his ex-wife remained cold and icy.

She didn't even give him the slightest bit of face.

Was she really that unappreciative?

One had to know she was already over fifty; besides him, who else would want a woman like her?

"Zhou Lin, you are just a shrew." Chu Bolin couldn't take it anymore.

Madam Chu sneered coldly, "I said, get out, don't disturb A Li's rest here."

Chu Bolin was furious and left.

Madam Chu put away her tough expression and became somewhat dazed; if her husband had been a family-oriented man with a sense of responsibility from the beginning, she wouldn't have turned out like this.

She was, after all, hurt by the word "shrew."

"Cheng Wan, do you think I deserve it?" Madam Chu's voice was very soft; half a lifetime had passed, and her heart was now desolate.

Cheng Wan hadn't intended to speak; the Chu family's affairs had nothing to do with her.

But seeing Madam Chu's appearance, a sudden sense of distress arose in her heart.

A woman's life was truly too bitter.

She set aside the misgivings in her heart and said to Madam Chu, "I have never had such a thought."

Her tone softened a bit, "But since you are divorced, you shouldn't let that kind of man affect your mood; it's not worth it."

She had already had her best years worn away by Chu Bolin, so why continue to be sad for such scum.

Madam Chu looked at Cheng Wan seriously for the first time.

She had to admit that she was not as good as Cheng Wan.

Cheng Wan had also been hurt in relationships, but look at her now.

She had absolutely no feelings for Chu Li, and even though Chu Li had saved her, her heart remained cold and still, not to be coerced by anyone.

"Cheng Wan, I misunderstood you before." Madam Chu apologized on her own initiative.

This time, it was sincere.

Cheng Wan didn't speak again.

She looked at the unconscious Chu Li on the hospital bed; this was the person she had loved for three years, been hurt by for three years, and now he lay on the hospital bed, his life or death unknown.

Her mood was complicated.

Madam Chu said softly, "There are still two children at home to take care of, you should go back."

Cheng Wan glanced at the time and left without any lingering attachment.

And in the parking lot.

Chu Yue sat in the car and said to Chu Bolin in a low voice, "Big Brother, are you crazy? You still bowed your head to her."

Truly spineless.

Chu Bolin roared, "Then what can I do? Now A Li is the one who calls the shots in the family. If A Li doesn't nod, I have no way to go back at all."

He was probably the first father to be pushed to this point by his son.

It was very embarrassing and very shameful.

"If you ask me, Chu Li was raised by her, so his heart is naturally with her; no matter how much you beg, it's useless." Chu Yue analyzed Chu Bolin's situation, "Indeed, as long as A Li is there, you will never be able to go back."

Chu Bolin slammed his fist hard against the backrest.

"If he weren't my son, how could he be like this today? An ungrateful thing."

"Big Brother, if you want to go home, there is only one chance."

A strange glint appeared in Chu Yue's eyes; she lowered her voice, tempting him.

"Big Brother, only if you return to the Chu family and regain control of the Chu family will you have a say in the house."

Chu Yue smiled gently, but the words she spoke were exceptionally sharp.

"You are the eldest son of the Chu family after all, yet you were kicked out without any dignity, becoming a laughingstock for others. Are you willing to accept that?"

"Everything Chu Li has now was voluntarily given to him by you; otherwise, how could he have attained such a high position at such a young age?"

"Everything he has was bestowed upon him by you, but he is too unfilial; Big Brother, you should take it all back."

Chu Bolin clenched his fists; indeed, everything Chu Li had was something he had voluntarily discarded, otherwise, how would it have ever been Chu Li's turn to be the head of the house?

Not only did he not thank him, his father, but he even took the initiative to let people bully him.

He really should take everything back.

"You are right." He whispered, his expression twisted, "Everything in the Chu family is mine, it is all mine."

Chu Yue nodded in satisfaction.

Her brother had finally come to his senses.

"Since that is the case, why not simply take everything back while Chu Li is unconscious?"

Chu Bolin nodded fiercely; yes, that was everything that originally belonged to him, it was he who had given it to Chu Li.

Now that Chu Li was unfilial, he had the right to take everything back.

"Xiaoyue, you have to help me."

"Of course, you are my big brother; if I don't help you, who would I help?"

When Cheng Wan arrived home, Qin Ping'an was still watching cartoons with Cheng An'an; the two were huddled together, watching with fascination.

Cheng Wan looked at this scene, feeling incredibly tender inside.

This was the feeling of home.

She walked over, greeted the children, then went to wash up, and afterwards came out to watch cartoons with them.

Cheng An'an climbed into her arms, acting spoiled.

"Mommy, has that uncle woken up yet?"

"Not yet." Cheng Wan stroked her little head, "Why did An'an suddenly ask about the uncle?"

"The uncle is so pitiful." Cheng An'an pouted.

Qin Ping'an had a good impression of Chu Li, and he said softly, "I want to go see Uncle Chu."

He always remembered that his life had been saved by Chu Li.

Cheng Wan agreed to take them to the Yiyuan the next day.

Qin Ping'an then obediently took his sister to sleep.

The next day, Cheng Wan went to the company to handle affairs, then returned home to pick up Qin Ping'an and An'an, and took them to the Yiyuan.

Madam Chu was very pleasantly surprised; she had not expected Cheng Wan to take the initiative to bring the children.

"An'an." She softened her voice to greet Cheng An'an.

Cheng An'an was very polite and called out "Grandma."

The corners of Madam Chu's eyes were slightly moist; she had not expected that one day, Cheng Wan's children would still be able to call her Grandma.

She had thought that in this lifetime, there would never be such an opportunity.

Cheng An'an walked to the bedside and, feeling a bit curious, reached out to hook Chu Li's finger.
