Chapter 1488: Absolutely Not

Peng Yu wanted to compete with Zhai Sheng in everything. Of course, women were no exception. Forget about not being able to find someone better than Qiao Nan, but picking up something that Zhai Sheng did not want?

Father Peng had repeatedly lowered his standard, but he ended up with Qiu Chenxi. Father Peng fumed with anger. “You stupid boy! Why didn’t you say so earlier? If you were any later, your mom would have brought Qiu Chenxi out to see the world. The only thing she won’t say outright will be that she’s your partner.” In the past, that was a hint, but now that he was of age, they had to be explicit because they both wanted their son to get married and have children as soon as possible.

“Hehe. This goes to show that Qiu Chenxi’s methods are superior.” Even though Peng Yu was laughing, his expression was icy cold, and so was his tone. Qiu Chenxi’s deception was almost flawless, and she had almost succeeded.

He thought about how he had to bid Qiu Chenxi’s will when they decided to collaborate, but Qiu Chenxi did not return the favor. On the contrary, Qiu Chenxi took advantage of their collaboration and almost finished his entire family. Peng Yu’s gaze was ice cold.

Based on Qiu Chenxi’s actions, he almost wondered whether the person that Qiu Chenxi was in love with was actually still Zhai Sheng. She might have volunteered to stay by his side as a spy!

“Dad, Qiu Chenxi always thinks about others, but she’s of no use to us practically. I guess such a playing piece is no longer of any use to us. Let’s just give it up.” Qiu Chenxi was not only useless but could also bite back. Leaving such a playing piece around was a catastrophe waiting to happen. How could Peng Yu let Qiu Chenxi continue making trouble and increasing his burden?

Father Peng said without hesitation, “Fine. I will explain clearly to our auntie at home. If Qiu Chenxi were to turn up in the future, she will not be allowed into our house.” Qiu Chenxi would not even be able to take a single step into their house in the future.

Youngsters nowadays were so daring to even lie to their elders, not only to the Shi family but even to the Peng family. Really too audacious. The Peng family would never accept such a person as a collaborator, much less as a daughter-in-law. Whoever collaborated with Qiu Chenxi would find himself being made use of by her.

When dealing with outsiders, her IQ immediately dropped in the negatives.

The more he thought about it, the worse he felt. “Let’s not talk about her anymore. And aren’t you the cause of this all? That such a youngster successfully lied to your mom and me? Fine. After so many years of suppressing your anger, it’s time for you to recognize the truth. If you want to find someone who is better than Qiao Nan in every aspect and can’t even lose in terms of children, that’s practically impossible. Just find someone who’s similar but better than Qiao Nan in some regards. That will be good enough.”

If Peng Yu had been willing to find such a woman in the first place, would he have fallen in the hands of a woman like Qiu Chenxi?

Peng Yu knew that he was furious because of Qiu Chenxi. But this time, Peng Yu did not refuse. He felt that it was time for him to seriously settle down and get married. “Fine. Why don’t you and Mom help me look for one? As long as she’s okay, I’ll get married.” It was not easy to find someone who was better than Qiao Nan in every aspect, but it would be much easier to find someone who was much better than Qiao Nan in only some aspects.

“Deal. So we’ll find you such a lady. But will you suddenly stand us up once we find such a lady?”

“No.” If he still did not marry, by the time he had a son, Zhai Sheng’s sons would already be bringing home a girlfriend. He was probably used to comparing with Zhai Sheng. The mention of having kids in the future naturally made him compare his children with Zhai Sheng’s children.

As soon as Peng Yu finished his sentence, the Peng family immediately released news that they were picking a daughter-in-law the next day.

The Peng family’s background was not bad to say the least, but all those young ladies had all married because of Peng Yu. Peng Yu might want to get married, but he had never seen his blind date. Could the young ladies really be assured of their marriage? Besides, Peng Yu often stayed out and did not return home. It was not easy for the two of them to establish a relationship, but he would not even reply to messages for two weeks or even a month, much less physical meetings.

No matter how good Peng Yu’s background was, with such an attitude, there was not a single young lady who was willing to devote herself to Peng Yu. Of course, they would choose not to follow Peng Yu, but instead, find a suitable person to marry while they were still young. There was no reason to hang themselves on a tree that they had not even seen before.

But this time, as soon the Peng family released the news, there were several girls who were moved. In comparison to the past, the Peng family made it clear that this time, they wanted a young, obedient, and educated young lady.

The more explicit the requirements made by the Peng family were, the more young ladies tried to compare themselves to see if they fit the criteria and stood a chance in fighting for a place in the Peng family.

Now that two old people had passed away in the Zhai family, the Peng family obviously wanted to fight until the end with the Zhai family. Since the Zhai family was organizing a funeral, the Peng family would organize a wedding. The contrast was obvious.

While Peng Yu was going on blind dates, he was still concerned about Old Lin.

Unknowingly, the news that Old Lin had left his entire fortune to Qiao Nan had leaked, evoking strong responses from the Lins. Those people scolded Qiao Nan in all sorts of ways, each one even worse than the previous one.

Upon hearing those words, Qiao Dongliang was in deep sorrow. “Nan Nan, you weren’t even hankering after any of those things when you acknowledged Old Lin as your master. Old Lin was so kind to you, and now that you’re married to Zhai Sheng, why don’t you just return Old Lin’s things to them?” It could not be good to have such a ruckus every day.

If they were to anger the Zhai family and pull them into this mess, what would happen if the Zhai family turned against Nan Nan?

And what Qiao Dongliang was most worried about was whether the four children in the house would be affected by such a rowdy situation and be traumatized by it, affecting their future.

No matter what, money could never be more important than family. Besides, he did not think that Qiao Nan lacked money.

“No.” Qiao Nan refused. “All these were left to me by master. No matter what master means by that, I will never give away whatever he left to me. This was his last arrangement. I won’t disappoint him.” No matter what other people said about this, she would never back down on this matter.

“All these people have never even been good to master in their whole lives. They’d only done things that hurt and disappointed master, even repeatedly asking for money from him. They’d always mocked master for being alone in his old age, saying that they’d still be the ones claiming his body after he died. It was just a matter of when master’s possessions would become theirs. Master was so angry that he almost went to the hospital. The money that master gave me can be used for anyone but those Lins. They won’t even get a dime.”

Qiao Nan knew all the bad deeds of the Lin family like the back of her hand.
