Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1004
Chapter 1004: She Was Too Blind in the Past
Right from the beginning, he disliked Qiao Nan. There were so many obstacles between him and Hua Hua all because of Qiao Nan’s evil doing. In particular, later on, Hua Hua was already ignoring him.
If someone were to ask Wei De who he hated most during the period of his relationship with Zhai Hua, his answer would undoubtedly be Qiao Nan.
This was because he and Qiao Nan had been in similar circumstances—their family backgrounds were incompatible with the Zhai family.
On what grounds could Qiao Nan succeed when the Zhai family refused to acknowledge his existence all this while?
He had pleaded with Qiao Nan a few times for her help but she rejected him flatly without even considering or giving him any face.
Eventually, Qiao Nan cunningly caused Hua Hua to break up with him. Hua Hua declined to meet up with him and contact him. Even after he persisted and wrote to her for half a year, Hua Hua did not write back to him.
All the statuses of the Zhai family members were above that of Wei De. Wei De’s ploy did not work but he dared not hate them. Of course, he had to vent it all on Qiao Nan.
In the face of Wei De’s malicious stare, Qiao Nan gave a mocking laugh. She then watched as her father, out of anger, gave Wei De a hard kick and worsened the latter’s injuries. “Sister Zhai Hua, don’t ever forget that you’re a soldier. Even if you are part of the Zhai family, in the eyes of the law, you don’t have special rights. Moreover, in my opinion, it is meaningless to kill him. One won’t have any feelings after one dies. He won’t suffer. He won’t be tortured. Damn, he will be relieved!”
Qiao Nan closed her eyes. She thought back about the outcome of Chen Jun and Qiao Zijin’s relationship. Her voice started to turn cold. “You should understand now. Wei De is together with you not because of love. It does not have anything to do with that. Wei De is an ambitious person. He has many wants and only you can give it to him. Therefore, he pesters you and refuses to let go. Since you can make him successful, of course, you can also take back all that you have given him. Being alive is more terrible than being dead.”
Chen Jun could not resist Qiao Zijin’s temptation and secretly had a child with her. He betrayed her—no, right from the start until the end, Chen Jun had never been true to her. He dated her because of unspeakable and ulterior motives.
In the end, it did not end well for Chen Jun.
When she was forty years old, the Chen family was considered one of the prominent and powerful families in Ping Cheng.
Unfortunately, despite the status of the Chen family, Qiao Zijin actually dared to cheat on Chen Jun. The whole world knew about this matter. At that time, the Chen family, especially Chen Jun, had become a huge joke.
All those acquaintances of Chen Jun who had previously been trampled by him looked at him differently just because of this matter.
The Chen family had taken great pains to attain such a high status. They wanted to be respected and admired by others. Unfortunately, they made the mistake of accepting Qiao Zijin into the family. They could not even retain their basic dignity and reputation thereafter. All their past efforts went down the drain.
To Chen Jun, nothing was more unbearable than the derisory glances of others.
What was more painful than losing something that one had finally achieved after working hard for a long time? It was as if they had risen to heaven from hell only to fall into hell from heaven.
Given the situation of Chen Jun, he had been battered so badly that he even returned to look for her with the intention to reconcile, let alone Wei De’s situation.
Qiao Nan was too experienced in this. She had a much better understanding of the situation than Zhai Hua.
Having understood what Qiao Nan meant, Zhai Hua gritted her teeth as she grabbed the phone and called her childhood friend. “Hello, it’s me. Yes, I am back in Ping Cheng. Alright, don’t ask me about anything. In short, Wei De and I are over. I don’t want Wei De to do well. Help me inform the rest.”
After dating Wei De for such a long time, how could Zhai Hua possibly not know what kind of person Wei De was?
In the past, she naively believed that Wei De’s motivation for success was all because of her.
Now, she had completely understood. Wei De had been working so hard for himself—he wanted to be part of the upper social class, he wanted power, he wanted money!
Qiao Nan was right. She would make Wei De fall the same way that she made him rise.
The peak of success that Wei De would never be able to achieve in his entire life, Zhai Hua could easily destroy all of it with just one phone call.
“Hua Hua, listen to my explanation. I have my difficulties. I didn’t tell you anything about this because I was terrified of losing you. I am already of this age. You… you should understand me. I just think that I have a responsibility toward Wei Wei. That’s why I… If you don’t like it, fine. I will send Wei Wei back and won’t meet him ever again. You called your childhood friend as you wish to destroy my company and make me lose everything. It’s okay. I am not angry. No matter what, I am the one who didn’t do enough. I have disappointed you. To me, nothing is more important than you!”
It was not an issue to lose the company.
As long as Zhai Hua was still his girlfriend and he could reconcile with her, he would only gain more than what he had lost now.
Wei De had always been very clear about this important premise.
With Zhai Hua, he would have a future where the sky was the limit. Even if he had lost everything that he had in his hands now, after some time, he would be able to retrieve them.
If he lost Zhai Hua…
Wei De felt appalled as he remembered the years of his bitter struggles in the army. There was never a day where he could succeed. He was only waiting for the day of his retirement. At the thought of this, Wei De broke out in cold sweat.
In the past, he loved the army and wanted power. Now, it was impossible to return to the army anymore. It was also very good to rely on Zhai Hua and hold on tightly to money.
If Zhai Hua was gone, he would have neither power nor money. He would not be able to set foot in Ping Cheng again. In that case, his hard work and persistence over the years would become a huge joke.
He was used to the debauchery in Ping Cheng. He was used to a different kind of life. Wei De was truly terrified of returning to the countryside to be a farmer.
Even when he was doing business, Wei De was not down-to-earth. He had been relying on the power of Zhai Hua and the Zhai family to get to the top.
Once he lost Zhai Hua, this powerful one, Wei De might not even be willing to take on a job seriously and earn a meager salary, let alone doing business.
After all, he had once led a life of a millionaire with his own company and dozens of employees.
The more he thought about it, the more fearful Wei De felt. He was so scared that he could not wait to write off Wei De’s existence in order to appease Zhai Hua.
Wei De, who was in his early thirties, loved children, especially son. As there had not been any progress at the Zhai family’s end for so long, Wei Wei naturally became his darling.
At this moment, Wei Wei had become the stumbling block of Wei De’s ambitions. As such, the first thing that Wei De thought of was how to get Wei Wei out of the way.
“Scram!” Initially, Zhai Hua did not think that she would feel better by doing this. Nevertheless, when she saw the fear and horror in Wei De’s eyes, she felt instant pleasure. Thereafter, she was surrounded by surging feelings of hate and regret.
