Chapter 796 Zhai Sheng’s Advice
“That’s good.” Miao Jing breathed a sigh of relief. This was the best thing that happened to them this year.
“Is Qiao Nan that confident?” Zhai Hua dried her hair with the towel and sat down to join in the conversation. “Actually, Mom is right. You should not put too much pressure on Qiao Nan. With her results and ability, it will not be a problem to retake the exam next year.”
Instead of going to a school that was not to one’s satisfaction, it would be better to retake the exam and go to the first-tier university in the capital.
“It will be a problem to me,” Zhai Sheng replied bluntly. If Nan Nan was to retake the exam next year, it would mean that his engagement plans would have to be postponed for at least a year.
There was a huge difference between a boyfriend and a fiancé.
Zhai Hua shot Zhai Sheng a disdainful look. “That is so pitiful of you.” Zhai Hua had to admit that it was right of her brother to be anxious.
Zhai Sheng raised his eyebrows. It was kind of him not to bring up Wei De right now. He would let her have her way this time.
“Why will it be a problem to Zhai Sheng? What is he anxious about?” Miao Jing blinked, perplexed.
“Nothing.” Zhai Yaohui passed a piece of watermelon to Miao Jing. “This is between the siblings. They will settle it by themselves.”
Ever since Zhai Hua knew Wei De and was in a relationship with him, her behavior only served to disappoint Zhai Yaohui. However, he felt slightly comforted that she helped Zhai Sheng keep his relationship with Qiao Nan a secret.
But Zhai Yaohui did not know that Zhai Hua had told Wei De about Zhai Sheng’s relationship and Wei De had made use of this information to come up with all sorts of troubles for Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan. It was just that he had not succeeded until now.
Miao Jing ate the watermelon while she wondered what was going on between the siblings. She did not understand their conversation.
After Zhai Sheng returned to his room, Zhai Hua came looking for him. Zhai Sheng looked at Zhai Hua and asked, “What’s the matter?”. If it was regarding Wei De, there was nothing to say between them. In fact, there was nothing much to be said.
“I don’t know if it’s because of the weather, troubles seem never-ending. You are upset because of what happened to Qiao Nan. I heard that Wei De is not in a good mood recently. Wei De is under immense stress due to our family. At times, I hope that I was born into a simple family. But then again, I should be seen as an individual. You should not lump me with my family. I have always hoped that all of you and Wei De will not view the Zhai family and me as one whole. If you are to disregard that I am from the Zhai family, will it be easier for all of you to accept Wei De?”
Zhai Hua wanted to find a way to their problem. She wanted her family to abandon any prejudices of Wei De.
“Has Wei De been under immense stress recently or has he always been under immense stress?” Zhai Sheng was quick to catch on to a piece of important information from Zhai Hua’s words.
“Well…” What was the difference? Wei De had been under huge stress ever since he started to date her. “It may have been due to the recent weather. He is vexed nowadays. Ever since he dated me, he is under immense stress.”
“In the end…” During his analysis of the accident near Ping Cheng High School with Qiao Nan, there was a brief instant when he suspected Zhai Hua. But both of them hoped that Zhai Hua had nothing to do with Qiu Chenxi.
But they had forgotten about one other person-Wei De.
Zhai Hua had told Wei De everything. Therefore, Wei De knew very well what was going on between Zhai Sheng and Nan Nan.
Wei De also knew that Qiu Chenxi had some relations with Zhai Sheng.
It seemed that apart from Chen Jun, there was one other person that he had to investigate.
Given Wei De’s personality, Zhai Sheng felt that he had reasons to suspect and investigate him.
“What are you thinking about? Why do you ignore me when I am talking to you?” Zhai Hua, who had calmed down, felt that it was better for her to use the soft approach. She had no confidence in winning by staying at loggerheads with her family. She also felt that there was no need to take things so far.
Zhai Sheng sat straight. “What else could I be thinking of but about what happened to Nan Nan. You should know the seriousness of the matter. Once I find out who is behind thiseven if the person is not the mastermind-I will not let the person off.”
“That’s for sure!” Zhai Hua slapped her thigh. “What happened this time was way overboard. Someone is out to destroy Qiao Nan. I feel that instead of destroying Qiao Nan, the person seems to want to ruin your relationship with Qiao Nan.”
If Qiao Nan failed to do well in the college entrance examination, it would be more difficult for her to be with Zhai Sheng.
“I have the same sentiments.” Seeing that Zhai Hua did not avoid the topic and gave him a positive answer, Zhai Sheng felt much better inside.
If this had to do with Wei De-unless he made sure to leave no clues behind-he would definitely find a chance to deal with Wei De.
In any case, he would not make life easy for Wei De.
Fortunately, Zhai Hua had not turned into a different person completely and still had her principles. “Alright, you have said your piece. You can leave now. I need to read over some information.”
“Crap, you have no time for your family now that you are dating.” Zhai Hua knew that Zhai Sheng must have spent a lot of time at the Qiao family’s residence with Qiao Nan to have come back at such a time. “You seem to be in high spirits today. Have you taken advantage of Qiao Nan?”
It was rare that there was a flicker of emotions on Zhai Sheng’s usual indifferent face. It must have to do with Qiao Nan.
“You should not stick your nose into this.” Zhai Sheng shot Zhai Hua a disdainful look, but he did not rebut her words.
“Hehehe, Qiao Nan is still so young. How could you do that to her?” She wondered how things were going on between Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan. She blushed when she thought of her relationship with Wei De.
Zhai Sheng did not feel guilty at all. He replied steadfastly, “Nan Nan is an adult. I am in the midst of arranging for us to be engaged this year.”
After the engagement, it would be legal for him to be on intimate terms with Nan Nan.
“Crap. Don’t tell me you have filed your marriage report?!” To soldiers, filing the marriage report is tantamount to marriage. After filing the report, the two of them would be considered as married and they could do what married couples do. “Isn’t it a bit too early? Qiao Nan is still not of the legal age. Do you want to go against the law?”
“Don’t worry. I will not do anything to shame the Zhai family.” He was not Zhai Hua. “After filing the marriage report, I will be engaged to Nan Nan. By the time she is of the legal age to marry, we will collect the marriage certificate.”
“You are really fast.” His situation was unlike Wei De and her. Although they were of legal age, they could not get married.
“True blue will never stain. If Wei De is true to you, what are you afraid of? If he is as good as you have made him to be, you don’t have to worry or be anxious. The Zhai family has no reason to reject such a good son-in-law. We hope that you will find your true happiness.”
