Rebirth To A Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Chapter 1797 - Expectations

Chapter 1797: Expectations

No news reports or interviews could reveal so clearly about Zhai Sheng’s preferences. How had she gained such an understanding of Zhai Sheng? What was the basis for her dreaming of Zhai Sheng’s habits?

“Don’t. Don’t give it to him. He doesn’t exercise much now. I’m afraid he’ll get too bloated if he eats any more. Are you Xiao Xu? The weather is rather pleasant today. It doesn’t seem good for him to sit there all day. Why don’t you bring him out to the yard for a walk?” Qiao Nan, who happened to overhear the conversation as she walked out, was taken aback. Zhai Sheng would probably not be able to keep his figure if he were to continue eating.

In her dream, Zhai Sheng had an intense training regime in the military. Even at home, Zhai Sheng had never forsaken training and ran so much that it scared others. But now, everything was different. Even if there were no major problems with Zhai Sheng’s leg, there were probably other minor problems.

In the two days that she had been here, she had never once seen Zhai Sheng stand up. As to how Zhai Sheng crawled onto his bed to sleep or how he managed his nature calls once she went home, Qiao Nan truly had no idea. What Qiao Nan knew was that Zhai Sheng had never asked her to help him with these matters.

It was not as though Zhai Sheng was under her watchful eye for the whole day. From Qiao Nan’s calculations, there was no way Zhai Sheng would only use the toilet once a day. Since Zhai Sheng did not require her help in this area, she was not worried about it either.

But since Xiao Xu was back now, Qiao Nan felt that she should a.s.sign him some tasks too. “It’s not good to always stay seated. You should let him soak his feet, help him ma.s.sage them, or help him walk around from time to time.”

“Yes, you are?” Doctor w.a.n.g looked at Xiao Xu. After learning of Qiao Nan’s surname from Xiao Xu, he quickly answered, “This… Madam Qiao… I know what she’s saying about the chief’s condition. Indeed, moderate exercise can help you recuperate faster.” The chief had already pa.s.sed the stage of absolute rest. “Of course, it was right for you to decrease your exercise in the first few stages of recuperation, but you should start increasing it gradually.”

Knowing that he would soon have work to do, Xiao Xu was elated. “So it turns out that the chief can walk around already! Alright, chief, I’ll help you!”

Not only was Zhai Sheng tall, but he was also extraordinarily muscular. Of course, this meant that Zhai Sheng weighed quite a lot. Qiao Nan did have such a plan, but she was a single lady, while Zhai Sheng was a divorcé. Qiao Nan had no strength to help Zhai Sheng around, and neither was it appropriate for her to be so physically close to him.

Now that Xiao Xu was back, all their problems would be solved.

When Qiao Nan saw Zhai Sheng reading about his medical records in his study room yesterday morning, Qiao Nan had already had such an idea.

When the four of them saw the harmonious atmosphere, the remaining Sister Zhao felt extremely awkward. She would not need to cook since the chief was not hungry. The chief would need to learn to walk again with the doctor’s guidance, and Xiao Xu would be helping him with that. Although the other woman was not in the picture, that woman had been the one who had arranged all these. At that moment, only she had nothing to do.

Sister Zhao frowned. Officer Xu had not told her that the chief’s wife would be around. If Xiao Xu had known that the chief’s wife was around, he should have given her a heads-up. Gaining the favor of the mistress was way more important than gaining the favor of the master.

Thinking about that, Sister Zhao got close to Qiao Nan. “h.e.l.lo, Madam Zhai, my surname is Zhao. You can call me Xiao Zhao. You can simply instruct me on how to take care of the chief or if you need help with making anything for the chief to eat. I’ll definitely do my best as long as I know how to do so. If I don’t, I promise that I’ll do my best to learn it well.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

In an instant, the other three people were rendered speechless because of Sister Zhao’s words. Xiao Xu was so angry that he had to cup his forehead. He had never once mentioned that the chief was married, much less that the chief’s wife was taking care of the chief. How could Sister Zhao have such a vivid imagination? He wondered if the chief would be infuriated by such an a.s.sumption.

“Chief, this has nothing to do with Sister Qiao!” Neither does it have anything to do with me!

How could he possibly tell Sister Zhao that Sister Qiao was the chief’s wife? He was the one who had found Sister Zhao. Before today’s meeting, Sister Zhao did not know Sister Qiao at all, and Sister Qiao had no time to mislead Sister Zhao either.

So it was entirely out of Sister Zhao’s imagination that she had addressed Qiao Nan as the ‘chief’s wife’. Both Sister Qiao and he were innocent. Neither of them had ever sent a wrong signal to Sister Zhao to mislead her!

“I don’t mind, but I wonder if Miss Qiao will be affected?” Zhai Sheng was extremely calm. “Miss Qiao, although there’s no one here apart from the five of us, if word gets out and your husband gets the wrong idea, I can explain the situation for you.”

“I…” Qiao Nan opened her mouth but did not know how to respond. Or perhaps it could be said that she wanted to simply reply with a vague ‘yes’. Qiao Nan felt a little weird having to talk about whether she was married in front of Zhai Sheng.

Qiao Nan had not wanted to talk about it and had even wanted to simply gloss over it, but unfortunately, she had a noob ally, Xiao Xu. “Don’t worry, chief. Sister Qiao is just like you. She’s still single.”

“Oh…” Zhai Sheng answered meaningfully yet normally. “It’s good that there’ll be no misunderstanding. But even if there is any misunderstanding, don’t worry. We’ll be able to explain it.” It turned out that she, too, was divorced.

Zhai Sheng himself was not sure why he suddenly felt at ease after he had brought up this issue out of the blue and had gotten such an answer.

Zhai Sheng, Xiao Xu, and the rest of them had already gotten a hold of the situation, but Sister Zhao was only getting even more confused. So this was not the chief’s wife? But no one had gotten angry by the slip of her tongue! The chief’s temper was too good! Besides, according to what Officer Xu said, the chief had no wife?

As a normal woman, the sight of a similar-aged man who was outstanding in every way would evoke some feelings in her heart. Otherwise, that woman was abnormal. Even though she had gotten a divorce, Sister Zhao was not prepared to spend the rest of her life alone.

Her ex-husband had already found his match for his second marriage before even getting divorced, so there was no reason she could not think about this personal problem now that she was already divorced.

Of course, these were all just her own thoughts. She would still need to make a tremendous amount of effort to get a man like Zhai Sheng.

Thus, such a thought disappeared in a flash. She knew very well of her own position, what she should do, and what she should not do.

But Qiao Nan seemed a little embarra.s.sed at this moment. She had heard the words ‘chief’s wife’ many times in her dream, but this was the first time that she had been mistaken for one in reality. It was truly a first. She had not even graduated from junior high school. How could she ever expect to become the wife of a chief?
