Chapter 56: A Pledge to Not Change for One Year

Chapter 56: Make a promise to each other for a hundred years

"But," Cui Changjia raised his head, "I will never admit defeat!"

After finishing her housework, she also wants to do what she likes.

Under the light, Chang Ying's eyes were as bright as crystal. "Then let's make a deal. I will fulfill my dream, and you have to fulfill yours too!"

Cui Changjia stretched out her little finger towards Chang Ying. Chang Ying understood it immediately and stretched out her little finger as she did when she was a child. The two girls hooked their little fingers together.

Hanging with a hook will not change for a hundred years!
The pinky promises we made when we were young represent our innocence, while the pinky promises we made when we grow up represent the mutual promises we make to each other since our youth!

Before Chang Ying finished her drink, her stepmother Zheng Yuehong called her and said, "Xiaoying, you just came back and you must be very tired. Come back early to rest. I will arrange for a driver to pick you up now."

Chang Ying's stepmother is very cunning and is used to putting on airs.

Chang Ying lowered her eyes and said, "No need, Aunt Zheng. Chang Jia will take me back soon. You and my dad can rest first."

For so many years, Chang Ying has called Zheng Yuehong "Auntie Zheng".

At first, she refused to call him "Mom", and Chang Yuanliang was very angry. However, Zheng Yuehong said understandingly, "It's just a title. The most important thing is that Xiaoying is happy."

In fact, Zheng Yuehong hoped that Chang Ying would not call her "Mom". She had her own children to love, so how could she love someone else's child?

Zheng Yuehong was gentle and considerate to Chang Ying in front of Chang Yuanliang, but was cold and hostile to her behind his back. Chang Ying was so angry that she often cried secretly with Cui Changjia.

At that time, Cui Changjia would only cry with Chang Ying, but now Cui Changjia would tell Chang Ying, "You care so much about her attitude, it's nothing more than that you can't leave Uncle Chang, but when you have money, your own house, your own home, you can be financially independent and don't need to rely on anyone, then you won't care about Zheng Yuehong's attitude."

Chang Ying deeply agreed with this.

It was only half past ten when Chang Ying got home. Chang Yuanliang was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV. When he saw Chang Ying come back, he immediately turned off the TV, obviously waiting for Chang Ying to come back.

"You ran out as soon as you came back," Chang Yuanliang said without a smile on his face, "and you came back so late?"

Chang Ying was silent. Her father's smiling face did not belong to her, but to her younger brothers and sisters.

Chang Ying said in silence, "I haven't seen Changjia for a long time. I chatted for a while. I'm going to rest first."

"Wait," Chang Yuanliang called her, "Come and sit down."

Chang Ying paused, then walked over and sat down in silence.

"The Cui family's affairs are of great importance," Chang Yuanliang said in a serious tone. "Even if you have a good relationship with Cui Changjia, you should weigh your own weight before doing anything. Don't talk nonsense if you can't do it."

"You're overthinking."

When he came back, Cui Changjia told Chang Ying not to tell anyone about the factory, so Chang Ying would not even tell her father.

"What do you know about business?"

Chang Ying looked at her father with clear eyes and said, "Dad, I don't understand business matters, but as long as Changjia needs me, I will go through fire and water! But don't worry, Changjia has already told me that you have helped their family too much, and I won't look for you again."

Chang Yuanliang thought of Cui Changjia's recent behavior and couldn't help but frowned and said, "Changjia is very cunning now. Who knows if she said this to you on purpose to retreat in order to advance."

Chang Ying smiled and said, "Retreat to advance? Do you think Mr. Cui would play that trick on you?" The friendship between them was so pure that one could dig out one's heart and lungs and put them on the table for people to see. What color were they!

Chang Yuanliang changed the subject and said, "You will go to work in the store tomorrow. I have arranged everything for you. It will be your original job. Also, your Aunt Zheng is looking for a suitable partner for you. If there is a suitable one, go and meet her. You must not refuse to go!"

"I don't want to go to work in the store anymore," Chang Ying raised her head slightly, "I will go out and look for a job tomorrow. I won't bother Aunt Zheng with finding a partner. I have no plans to get married."

Chang Yuanliang frowned, "What's wrong with you? Did Changjia ask you to go out to work on your own?"

Chang Yuanliang repeatedly pushed the responsibility onto Cui Changjia, and Chang Ying was very annoyed. "Don't push everything onto Changjia. She is so busy and stressed. How can she take care of my business?"

Chang Yuanliang was displeased to see Chang Ying was angry, "No wonder your Aunt Zheng said you were very disobedient. I didn't believe her when she told me that."

Chang Ying said indifferently, "You can think whatever you want, but I won't work in the store anymore."

To be honest, she was disappointed with her biological father.

At that time, after Cui Wenquan collapsed under the pressure, Chang Ying ran to find her father Chang Yuanliang and asked him to help deal with Cui's affairs, because for him, it was not a difficult task to come up with one or two million.

But Zheng Yuehong did not allow it. While Chang Yuanliang was out, she pointed at Chang Ying's nose in the yard and told her to get out.

Chang Ying is an introvert and somewhat submissive person, but that time she had an argument with Zheng Yuehong.

When Chang Yuanliang came back, Zheng Yuehong deliberately got very close to Chang Ying, then pretended to fall down, and insisted that it was Chang Ying who pushed her.

Without asking any questions, Chang Yuanliang confiscated Chang Ying's cell phone and sent her to her aunt's house.

Chang Ying didn't know why Chang Yuanliang wanted to take her back, but judging from Zheng Yuehong's lukewarm attitude towards her, it was definitely not Zheng Yuehong who suggested asking her to come back.

Chang Ying came back this time with such a stubborn temper, and Chang Yuanliang was very angry. "Chang Ying!" He slammed the table in anger, "Can you be more sensible? We are all doing this for your own good, and you go out to work? Do you know what kind of people are out there?"

"No matter how bad a person is, he is two-faced."

Chang Yuanliang stood up, slapped Chang Ying in the face, and said ruthlessly, "If I hear you say these disobedient words again, I will not forgive you!"

The slap landed on Chang Ying's face, leaving a bright red slap mark on her face!

Chang Ying would have cried in the past, but she didn't this time. She stood up, stared at Chang Yuanliang, and said word by word, "Dad, even if you beat me to death, I will never work in our store again!"

"You are not allowed to be with Cui Changjia again, otherwise I will send you back to your aunt's house!"

Chang Ying shouted, "I was twelve years old and my mother died. Do you know who stayed with me? It was Cui Changjia! She stayed with me until I was fourteen, which is longer than the time you and I have been together!"

The more Chang Ying talked, the more hysterical she became. "I came to Zhoucheng when I was fourteen. If you didn't get up, I had to make breakfast. At night when you all went to bed, I had to wash Chang Xiao's diapers and mop the floor. I dropped out of school at seventeen to work in a store. I was not yet an adult at that time. If it weren't for Cui Changjia, I would have died long ago, you know!"

"Uncle Cui and Brother Xiuyuan are both in the hospital, and Aze has gone back to school. The Cui family is now supported by Changjia, who is busy running around. What's wrong with her?"

At the end, Chang Ying said fiercely, "Don't threaten me with sending me to my aunt's house. If you dare to send me there, I will go to the police station and call the police to arrest you!"

"Chang Ying, you are outrageous!"
