Rebirth To A Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Chapter 863 - Made the Move Too Early

Chapter 863 Made the Move Too Early

“Are you sure?” Old Master Zhai, who frowned deeply, relaxed at Zhai Hua’s words.

He was not very satisfied with this answer, but at least, it did not disappoint him terribly. It was better than Hua Hua saying that she would marry Wei De.

“I’m sure.”

“Alright, then it is settled.” Zhai Yaohui made the final decision. It was rare that his daughter was not muddleheaded. Given the way she behaved in the past year, Zhai Yaohui did not have high expectations of her.

Zhai Sheng raised his hand to make his stand. “I support it.”

“Me too.” Qiao Nan followed suit, standing on her husband’s side.

“Alright. The Zhai family has always been democratic. Everyone has voted to go ahead with it.” Old Master Zhai felt much better now. “Comrade Wei, I am sorry. We are having a personal gathering today. It is inconvenient to invite you. It is late, and the child is tired after eating his fill. You should go back now.”

“Brother Zhai, I should go back too.” Qiao Nan pulled at Zhai Sheng’s clothes.

Zhai Sheng grabbed Qiao Nan’s disturbing hands. “You can stay.” Now, Nan Nan could stay at the Zhai family’s residence openly. n.o.body would dare to gossip about her.

“No, I have to go back.” Qiao Nan insisted. “My dad is waiting for me at home.” The most important thing was that s.h.i.+ Qing might be waiting for her as well.

If she did not go back today, s.h.i.+ Qing would tease her even if nothing happened between her and Brother Zhai. She would let her thoughts wander.

Qiao Nan could not afford to be misunderstood.

“Yes, Nan Nan’s att.i.tude is right. Even if the two of you are engaged, you cannot do as you wish.” Zhai Yaohui had to set the rules straight for Zhai Hua. “Unless you are married, it is wrong for a single man and a woman to stay together. You can’t blame other people for misunderstanding you. You have to behave with propriety. Particularly for girls, you have to learn to protect yourself. I don’t care what the social norms are. In the Zhai family, you have to follow the rules and be conservative. We do not accept the so-called modern and latest trends.”

Zhai Yaohui used Zhai Sheng to set a good example for Zhai Hua. Qiao Nan smiled secretly at Zhai Sheng. She did not insist on it. It was Chief Zhai who said so.

Zhai Sheng gave Qiao Nan a pinch. She could keep the smug expression to herself. His father might have said that, but he would do as he pleased. If anyone provoked him, he would make Qiao Nan stay by force. No matter what, Uncle Qiao could not object to it from today onward.

However, since there were outsiders around, Zhai Sheng preserved Zhai Yaohui’s dignity and listened to him.

Zhai Sheng could not be bothered to feign civility with Wei De. He did not deserve it.

Zhai Sheng stood up and reached out his hand to Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan blushed slightly. She clasped Zhai Sheng’s hand as he helped her up. “Let’s go. I will send you back.”

“Okay,” Qiao Nan replied softly.

The man had a tall and upright frame, looking righteous and strong in his green military uniform.

The woman was pet.i.te, looking feminine and delicately pretty in her bright pink cheongsam that reached her knees.

True enough, they were a perfect match.

On his way out, Zhai Sheng gave Zhai Hua a meaningful glance as if to say, ‘It is your fault that I have to send Nan Nan home today. I will remember this and settle it with you in the future.’

Zhai Hua’s scalp felt tight. Her brother was good at bearing grudges. He was not young anymore and he had a girlfriend, yet he could not do what he wanted as she was still young.

He had waited for four years before they were finally engaged. But he was implicated by her and now, he had to behave properly toward Nan Nan.

As his sister, Zhai Hua felt sorry that Zhai Sheng had such a difficult love life.

But she could not help it as well. She did not ask for things to turn out like this.

If it was up to her, she would forbid Wei De from showing up with Wei Wei.

Zhai Hua could sense Zhai Sheng’s warning stare, but she felt that she was an innocent victim as well. She was misunderstood by so many people today. They thought that Wei Wei was her son with Wei De.

Zhai Sheng ignored the distressed expression in Zhai Hua’s eyes. Since Zhai Hua was ready to ignore what happened today, Zhai Sheng would not breathe down her neck anymore. It was more important to send Qiao Nan home.

As for Wei De, Zhai Hua had made her decision. Without her support, Wei De could not come up with any more tricks.

Zhai Sheng sent Qiao Nan back home in the car. Perhaps they were perturbed by Wei Wei and Wei De, keeping their silence on the way back. They had their thoughts on the Zhai family.

During the journey, Qiao Nan was the one who broke the silence. “Brother Zhai, do you find that Wei Wei bears a resemblance to Wei De?”

If Wei Wei did not resemble Wei De, why would Auntie Miao… her mother suspect that Wei Wei was the child that Sister Zhai Hua had with Wei De when she saw him for the first time? All the outsiders thought so as well.

It was not a given that the person who carried the child must be the parent of the child. If not, human traffickers would have an easy time abducting children.

There was a flicker in Zhai Sheng’s eyes. “I did not pay attention just now.”

“Brother Zhai, it could be a woman’s intuition. If possible, can you send someone to check on Wei De’s hometown and keep an eye on Wei Wei’s mother?”.

Upon seeing Wei Wei for the first time today, Qiao Nan observed that Wei Wei was wearing new cotton clothes.

In general, men would not know how to take care of children and they would not pay attention to small details. Besides, there was no one to guide Wei De. He must have learned from others that it would be better for children to wear cotton clothes.

Moreover, Wei De had been carrying Wei Wei all the time. He only allowed him to walk by himself when they were at the Zhai family’s residence.

Wei De was furious when she gave plain water to Wei Wei. He was not merely angry at her for being stingy. There seemed to be other reasons as well.

In general, people would be angry under such circ.u.mstances. They felt furious as they were being looked down upon and not recognized by others.

It was different in Wei De’s case. He seemed to be angry because she was stingy with a small child like Wei Wei. He felt angry that she did not want to offer the child a gla.s.s of juice or soda.

There seemed to be a different reason behind his anger. There were so many possibilities behind it.

“Okay.” Even if Qiao Nan did not say anything, Zhai Sheng could sense that Wei De seemed to value Wei Wei very much.

Wei De had yet to be approved by the Zhai family. To put things bluntly, if Wei Wei was the child between Wei De and Zhai Hua, he might be able to make use of the child to gain the approval of the Zhai family.

However, the Zhai family had not accepted Wei De. It was unsuitable for him to bring Wei Wei to the Zhai family at this time.
