Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1634 - Regretful Again


Chapter 1634: Regretful Again

Qiao Nan was exasperated by Zhai Sheng. “I know you’re trying to flatter me, but there’s no need to go so far. Do you think it’s even possible that anyone would mistake me for my grandchild’s sister? You’re being too ridiculous!” Between a grandma and a sister was a difference of a whole generation!

“I won’t fight with you anymore. I’ll go help Mom prepare dinner in the kitchen. Are you craving anything in particular? I’ll tell Mom and ask her to prepare it for you.” Knowing that her mother-in-law’s cooking skills were now superior to hers, Qiao Nan did not try to show off either. Instead, she chose to stay by her mother-in-law’s side as an assistant.

Things like frying things in a wok, Qiao Nan had always left them to Miao Jing.

This meant that she would just relay Zhai Sheng’s wants to Miao Jing. Whether she cooked it or not, it would all depend on Miao Jing’s own decision.

Zhai Sheng raised his eyebrow. “Even my dad doesn’t have the right to order his meals. I think I’d better not be picky. The men in our family get jealous easily. There’s no need to provoke my dad. I’m not picky. I’ll eat whatever my mom cooks. There’s no need to specially prepare something for me. Just cook whatever is convenient for you.” If he were really to order his meal, his father would never let him off.

Zhai Sheng did not allow his sons to fight for his wife’s attention. It was best he did not do to others what he did not want them to do to him. On this matter, Zhai Sheng did very well. At least, Zhai Sheng was much more pleasing to the eye for Zhai Yaohui than his three grandchildren. Even if their youngest grandchild, Xiao Bao, came to visit, seeing Miao Jing prepare a full table of Xiao Bao’s favorite dishes always evoked memories of Miao Jing’s world revolving around him in his younger days.

But there was no way that he would ever return to those glorious days.

“You’ve probably asked me out for tea because of the recent incident, but you don’t seem like someone who would do that.” Qiao Nan rarely had any free time to herself, but she had given that up. It was also rare that the successful career woman, Xu Shengnan, did not have to work overtime. And so, the two schoolmates came together to have snacks and drink some tea together. Such days were truly hard to come by.

Xu Shengnan laughed bitterly. She even felt that the tea that she was drinking was bitter. “Junior, hearing what you’ve said, I’m sure you know about my situation. I’m… I’m quite hesitant. I’m not sure what I should do. I think I may have owed that guy, Fang Shiyou, in my previous life. That’s why I’m still repaying him in this life. I don’t know why my whole brain is so muddled whenever I meet Fang Shiyou. It’s just like I’ve fallen in muddy waters. I’m so afraid, so…” That’s why she could only find her junior, Qiao Nan, for help.

Qiao Nan put down her teacup. Qiao Nan was even more surprised to receive such an answer. “Actually, if you can’t make up your mind, why don’t you try asking for the opinions of people around you?” All right, Xu Shengnan being muddled was even rarer than asking her out for tea.

The pair had known each other for almost twenty years. At that time, Fang Shiyou had appeared rather honest. On the day Xu Shengnan married Fang Shiyou, Qiao Nan had even attended their wedding. Qiao Nan had not seen anything wrong with Fang Shiyou at that time.

So, when Xu Shengnan fell into that grave that was called Fang Shiyou, Qiao Nan did not think that it was Xu Shengnan’s fault. It was not because of Xu Shengnan’s foolishness that had caused her to fall into Fang Shiyou’s trap. Even after knowing someone for more than ten years, it was entirely possible not to know his true nature.

But the only thing of Xu Shengnan that had disappointed Qiao Nan was that Xu Shengnan had not been resolute even after Fang Shiyou had supported his mistress and had even plotted to take Xu Shengnan’s money. She had been too hesitant even after knowing that Fang Shiyou had been unfaithful to her and wanted to take what rightfully belonged to her.

Qiao Nan had been firm in her stance and made clear that she felt that the best decision was for Xu Shengnan to get a divorce from Fang Shiyou. Otherwise, Xu Shengnan could very well have endured her moment in wrath in the hope that it would bring about peace in the future.

Xu Shengnan sighed once again. “I’ve asked, but my parents…” Supported her reconciling with Fang Shiyou. They said something about a new one being no better than an old one. Getting remarried could not be any better than the first marriage. After so many years, Fang Shiyou must have already realized his mistake. Besides, that woman had not given birth to her son after all.

Even if she really reconciled with Fang Shiyou, she would not have to take care of another woman’s child. But Ling Ling would have a complete family and would be able to live with her birth father.

“Your parents told you to reconcile with Fang Shiyou, but you’re hesitant because you don’t wish to do it?” If Xu Shengnan did not have any intention of reconciling with Fang Shiyou, she would not have asked to talk to Qiao Nan when her parents expressed their opinion toward her. She was truly afraid that she would only find out once Xu Shengnan reconciled and got remarried to Fang Shiyou.

After thinking for a while, Qiao Nan put down the teacup in her hands and looked at Xu Shengnan sternly. “Senior Xu, actually, the person that you know is rather eye-catching to our Zhai Sheng. Otherwise, Brother Zhai wouldn’t have forked out such a huge sum of money to help these people set up a company. But now that Fang Shiyou’s matter is out in the open, have you decided whom you are going to choose? Don’t think that these military men are tough just because of their outward appearances. There are no solid iron walls when it comes to emotions. Everyone’s heart is soft and can get hurt. Senior Xu, it’s time you take out the courage you had in the past and make a decision.”

When San Bao had asked Qiao Nan about it that day, Qiao Nan had only given San Bao a vague answer. But in reality, Qiao Nan knew much more about the matter than what she had revealed to San Bao.

Initially, when Xu Shengnan was trying to secure evidence of Fang Shiyou cheating on her to get a divorce, Qiao Nan had introduced a retired comrade of Zhai Sheng’s to Xu Shengnan to let this man help investigate Fang Shiyou.

He was truly worthy of being a scout. It was putting great talent to waste by letting such a righteous and strong man be a private detective. Within a few days, the private detective was just one step away from finding out what color of underwear Fang Shiyou was wearing that day.

With such solid evidence, it was naturally not difficult for Xu Shengnan to get divorced from Fang Shiyou and prevent Fang Shiyou from taking advantage of her. It could be said that Zhai Sheng’s comrade had been the greatest help to Xu Shengnan in this matter.

Initially, when Xu Shengnan got divorced from Fang Shiyou, she had even changed Fang Ling Ling’s name to Xu Ling Ling. Qiao Nan had always thought that that was the end of the matter and that nothing would happen afterward. Since they were no longer related to each other, there would be nothing more to this.
