His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1170

Chapter 1170 - Live My Own Life From Now On

It took many moments for Long Jian to process what was happening. The shock hadn’t worn off yet. Perhaps it wouldn’t wear off for days to come, maybe even longer. The hits on his chest became more violent and the hysterical accusations much more vicious. He caught his mother’s arms and shook her by force to make her stop.

"Mom, stop it! I said stop!!!"

Zhu Ning was too far gone in her hysterical fury to allow him to calm her down. She continued fighting against his hold and cursing at her own son. The ruckus alerted the housekeeper waiting for them to eat dinner downstairs.

The housekeeper checked on them but didn’t dare to go inside the bedroom upon seeing what was happening from the small gap in the doorway. She quietly withdrew and returned downstairs to cover the dishes for dinner. Although the commotion alarmed her, she wasn’t surprised at all. Zhu Ning losing her temper and wrecking everything in her path was a common occurrence in the house. There was no household staff who could stay for long in her employ.

Sir Jian wasn’t particularly warm towards them, the help, but he was at least courteous and never insulted them. He might be impatient sometimes but it was understandable because he often brought a lot of work to home. He was terribly busy and worked late into the night in his home office. Despite this, he was still generous and would secretly give each of them bonus during special occasions without his mother’s knowledge who would surely kick up a fuss if she had known about it.

In short, if it were only Sir Jian, the household staff would have no problems staying loyal. It was unfortunate that their actual employer, Madam Zhu Ning, was far from ideal. The housekeeper didn’t know how many came and left before her. She was already planning to quit a while back but then the madam got arrested. Life in the house became more peaceful and she decided to stay for the meantime. But now that the vicious madam was back, the housekeeper’s original plan to quit returned. She would just wait for her latest pay and leave afterwards.

Long Jian had no idea that their current housekeeper was planning to leave soon. He had no time to think about anything else right now aside from calming his hysterical mother. Nothing worked.

Frustrated, he threatened, "Mom, if you don’t stop this right now, I’m going to leave you and this house!"

It worked like a charm.

Zhu Ning stopped trying to attack him and looked at him with disbelief. She was still furious but there was now growing panic mixed in.

"What did you say?! You’re going to leave your own mother?!"

Long Jian tried to take a few deep breaths to calm himself down but the adrenaline rush from the situation didn’t allow him to completely restrain his own temper.
