Chapter 2018: Refusal

Chapter 2018: Refusal

When Qiao Nan’s child was born, more than half of Jiajia’s pampering would definitely be shared.

Jiajia could laugh and say that she liked younger siblings and would take good care of them now. With the arrival of such a child, Jiajia would understand how much she would lose. Qiao Dongliang wasn’t sure if Jiajia could still tell him then with a pure and innocent expression that she was still that good sister from before.

Jiajia didn’t understand the complicated feeling in Qiao Dongliang’s heart. She said as a matter-of-fact, “Both are equally good. As long as they are born to my aunt, I will like them. A brother’s cute but a sister’s prettier. It’s the same.” After being subjected to a family where boys were preferred over girls, Jiajia expressed that she wouldn’t discriminate against younger brothers but would dote on younger sisters more.

Qiao Dongliang hesitated for a while before giving a faint ‘oh’. It sounded like this child liked a sister more?

Forget it. There was no use thinking about it now. Nan Nan just got married to Zhai Sheng and wasn’t pregnant with a child yet. After the child was born, he would help Nan Nan watch over him or her and see if there were changes to this child. If there were no changes, he wouldn’t be a wicked person. He would say nothing at all. However, if this girl changed, he had to remind Nan Nan to pay more attention to her.

Didn’t someone say a few days ago that Old Chief Zhai’s son was beaten to death by a group of gangsters then? Nobody knew if this was accidental or intentional. What everyone knew was that after Old Chief Zhai’s son passed away, the nephew surnamed Wang from the Zhu family would undoubtedly be the final winner.

Qiao Dongliang couldn’t help but worry if such an incident would similarly happen to his grandchild. Once Nan Nan gave birth to his grandchild, as long as it was possible, he had to help Nan Nan take good care of him so that no one could hurt him and make his grandson the second Zhu Baoguo.

“Oh? Who is this? What a handsome aunt!” Jiajia didn’t have much to talk to Qiao Dongliang. Since Qiao Dongliang was remaining silent, Jiajia couldn’t continue the conversation and her bright eyes wandered around. At this moment, Jiajia heard a little commotion. The people who attended the wedding seemed to be discussing something.

Jiajia looked up and saw a handsome aunt in a green army uniform just like her uncle’s walking over. Jiajia blinked. After thinking, she said, “Grandpa, take a seat here and eat whatever you want. If there’s anything you need, you can ask our aunt. A guest just arrived, so I’ll go take a look.” Her mom would definitely recognize this handsome-looking aunt. She was going to ask her mom about her.

“Shi Qing, why are you here today?” Zhai Hua was very surprised to see Shi Qing. It was rare for her to have a good impression of this woman. “Today is Zhai Sheng’s big day. Do you remember how I used to bring you around in the army when your dad was still around? You have to give me face.”

That being said, Zhai Hua was still confident about Shi Qing. Shi Qing wasn’t Qiu Chenxi. She wouldn’t do things that wouldn’t allow her to lead a good life but also wanted everyone in this world to accompany her. The truth was that when Zhai Hua first saw Shi Qing, she didn’t like her. Who asked Shi Qing to be Qiu Chenxi’s cousin and Qiu Chenxi was Qi Minlan’s birth daughter?

After that, Shi Peng became Zhai Sheng’s master. After interacting more with Shi Qing, she realized that Shi Qing was totally different from Qiu Chenxi. There wasn’t any trace of Qi Minlan on her. Instead, they were quite in sync. It was precisely because of this that when Shi Qing went to the army with Shi Peng later, Zhai Hua was especially willing to bring this younger sister out to play and let her train together with her.

It was just that after they grew up, a lot of things had happened. She obviously knew that Shi Qing, like Qiu Chenxi, liked Zhai Sheng. However, Zhai Sheng married Qiu Chenxi in the end. After Shi Peng was gone, Shi Qing followed her mom to Mo Du first and then returned to the capital. She didn’t come to Ping Cheng again.

They were playmates who got along well when they were young. After they grew up, they lost contact with each other. When they met again, her daughter was already at the age when she and Shi Qing knew each other back then.

Shi Qing smiled. “Sister Zhai Hua, you have thought too much. Do you think that I’m still eighteen years old and would bring a gun over to snatch the groom?” Actually, even if she was really an eighteen-year-old, she wouldn’t do such a crazy thing.

When she was young and most frivolous, had she not watched the man she liked marry her cousin? After that, she left quietly. She wasn’t so impulsive back when she was in her second year of junior high school. Now that she was past that age, it was more unlikely for her to do such a thing.

The only man who had touched her heart was going to marry again. She was just here to see what kind of woman could touch her male god’s heart such that he was willing to remarry.

As a single old woman in her forties, Shi Qing was also facing a headache as she was being urged to marry. In the past, Shi Qing often used Zhai Sheng, her senior, as a shield. Now that even Zhai Sheng was getting married, Shi Qing had a headache. She didn’t know what kind of reasons and excuses she could use to reject her mom the next time she urged her to get married again.

Really, she was already forty-one years old. What else could she not let go? Even without getting married, she was still leading a good life and was more carefree than anyone else. She didn’t need to rely on men. However, she managed to do things that some men couldn’t do!

Every time she thought of this, Shi Qing felt extremely proud. So what if she was a woman? She was looked down on by her grandpa and her maternal grandpa’s family. However, which one of them, who used to look down on her, wasn’t holding her up, flattering her, or seeing her as pride? Upon thinking that her maternal grandpa’s family nearly wanted to ‘sell’ her away when she was young to fulfill her uncle’s career, Shi Qing’s gaze turned cold.

She couldn’t rely on these relatives. As such, she wouldn’t let them rely on her as well. There was no use in saying any good words. Even if her mom was invited, she would still refuse!

“Brother Zhai’s getting married. I’m just here to attend the wedding. Brother Zhai’s the only disciple my dad has accepted when he was alive. Rather than saying that I’m here to attend the wedding, I’m actually attending it on behalf of my dad. Before my dad passed away, aside from caring about me, he was most concerned about Brother Zhai’s marriage.”

That day when Brother Zhai married Qiu Chenxi, her dad didn’t enjoy the wedding. When they returned home, her dad told her that he was worried that even though Zhai Sheng married Qiu Chenxi, this marriage wouldn’t last long. Zhai Sheng was his disciple. He knew clearly what kind of temper Zhai Sheng had.
