Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1200
Chapter 1200: The Present That Came Late
She was originally a young lady who was a college student. Were they compatible? Not at all.
However, this lady’s reputation had been ruined and she could not find a good partner in her hometown. She could only choose an old and unmarried man who did not have a good family background.
“When I went back last year, I heard that she had been married to that man for a year. After marriage, there were no signs of pregnancy in the first half of the year but she finally conceived in the second half of the year. When the child was four months old, it did not survive. They said that her health was damaged when she first had an abortion. One year has passed. I doubt she has become a mother.”
Encountering a scum was not a big deal, but having abortion casually could affect one for life. If it was not handled well, one could lose the eligibility to become a mother forever.
Xu Shengnan did not hate that lady. Clearly, this trouble was caused by two people. However, after conceiving, only the woman would bear all the pain and suffering. That friend of hers had to pay such a huge price for just one relationship that was a mistake.
Looking at that scum now, he was still studying in college. Similar to her, he would graduate from college in half a year. He would then find a good job, earn relatively well, and happily start a new phase of life. He could find a lady with compatible qualities, have marriage talks, and have children. His life would be so bright and wonderful.
At the thought that the male and female ‘leads’ who were involved in the same matter had such a huge difference in their lives, Xu Shengnan strongly objected to having pre-marital sex from the bottom of her heart.
The meaning of Qiao Nan’s engagement was, in fact, the same as marriage. Even so, the woman had to love and take care of herself more. She had to be more self-aware in protecting herself.
Unless they were certain that they would give birth to the children after conceiving, they had to take preventive measures. It did not feel good to wear condoms? Don’t do it then!
Why was there so much nonsense!
Facing Xu Shengnan’s sense of justice, Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Senior Xu, I understand all of your words. I know that you mean well. Don’t worry. I love and cherish myself very much. Senior Xu, you will be graduating in half a year. You should be remaining in the capital to work, right? At that time, I will invite you to my house.”
Qiao Nan could feel Xu Shengnan’s care, love, and concern for her.
Qiao Nan was someone with a biological sister. However, for two lifetimes, Qiao Zijin only had oppression and bullying for her. There was no care and concern at all. Their relationship did not resemble that of biological sisters. They resembled more like enemies from previous life who met again to continue the battle in this lifetime.
Qiao Nan had never experienced what it felt to have an elder sister despite the existence of Qiao Zijin. Nevertheless, she finally experienced it from Xu Shengnan. It was very heart-warming to have an elder sister.
“Your house?” Your maternal family’s or in-laws’?” Xu Shengnan had to clarify.
“In-laws’ house.” Maternal family? If it was possible, she did not even wish to return to her maternal family. Why would she invite her friends there? She did not wish to cover up the fact that she had a biological mother like Ding Jiayi and a biological sister like Qiao Zijin. However, she was not interested in airing her dirty linen in public.
“Fine,” Xu Shengnan nodded and replied. She was a little curious as to why it had to be half a year after her graduation. At the thought of Qiao Nan’s temperament, she believed that Qiao Nan would not do things without a reason. Hence, Xu Shengnan did not question further. She had been invited as a guest. Of course, she had to accommodate the timing of the host. “You should know that I am graduating in half a year. You have to find a time when I am available. Otherwise, I will reject you, and you can’t push the blame to me.”
At this juncture, Xu Shengnan, who was joking with Qiao Nan, did not expect that Qiao Nan would give her such a big and pleasant ‘surprise’ half a year later: three fair, chubby, fleshy, and nice-smelling babies with big-eyes and pink tiny mouths. The little hands were grabbing things. Two chubby legs squatted on the ground and stood up in an unsteady manner. They were shouting ‘mama’ with unclear pronunciation.
It was only until that moment that Xu Shengnan finally found out that those well-meaning words that she said previously were wasted. She had said it too late!
She was still concerned that Qiao Nan’s man would not be able to control the beast in him and caused a ‘life’ to be at stake. In actual fact, these three little lives were already born at that time.
After Xu Shengnan visited her house half a year later, Qiao Nan parted ways with Xu Shengnan.
It was approaching the end of the year and there were many joint ventures in Gao Yan’s company. They were minor projects and not major ones. Although margins were low, sales would be high. Word of mouth would help build the company’s publicity.
Xu Shengnan had annual leave, and students like Qiao Nan only had about one month of school vacation. However, Xu Shengnan only had one week of leave. After taking into account the traveling time, she could only stay at home for five days.
“Nan Nan is back?” Knowing that Qiao Nan’s winter vacation was coming, Miao Jing did not look too happy. She even looked a little depressed. “It’s vacation time. The three babies will definitely be happy to see you at home.”
Qiao Nan put down her backpack, removed her coat, and washed her hands clean. She then carried San Bao, who had already been shouting ‘Ah! Ah!’ for some time and fed her with milk. “Mom, did anything happen?”
“This… I think it’s better if you take a look at them yourself.” Miao Jing did not expect Qiao Nan to notice that something was amiss so quickly. Just right. Anyway, she could not make a decision. She might as well pass the items to Qiao Nan and let her decide for herself.
Miao Jing passed three little red boxes to Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan was carrying San Bao with one hand as she opened the little boxes with the other. Inside the box lay a very exquisite and cute little bracelet. “This is… from my dad?”
“Yes, your dad got someone to send this here.” At the mention of Qiao Dongliang, Miao Jing had a very odd expression on her face. She really took her hat off to Qiao Dongliang.
During the initial stages of Qiao Nan’s pregnancy, the Zhai family and Qiao Nan hid the truth from the Qiao family. They did not break the news to them too early.
Qiao Nan could hide the news during the initial stages of pregnancy but not when the children were born.
As soon as the three babies were born, Miao Jing took the initiative to call the Qiao family the next day to inform Qiao Dongliang about the good news. Qiao Dongliang was the one who picked up the call. Once he heard that Qiao Nan had given birth to three children, two sons and one daughter, he sounded overjoyed. He even happily exclaimed that he was a maternal grandfather now, and Qiao Nan was really capable to give birth to three babies at one go.
At that time, Miao Jing, who had just been promoted to a grandmother, was in a very good mood. She did not take issue that Qiao Dongliang was muddleheaded and sincerely wanted to share this good news with him.
His maternal grandchildren were born and it was a joyous occasion of having triplets. As the maternal grandfather, Qiao Dongliang should be present, no?
Bizarre it was, though!
On the day of the triplets’ full-month celebration, no one from the triplets’ maternal family came.
Fortunately, at that time, everyone was too focused on Qiao Nan and the triplets. They did not question much about who from the maternal grandparents’ family came and what they gifted the children. Otherwise, Miao Jing felt that her in-laws would embarrass themselves very badly.
Even if no one was coming, they should at least give them a call and explain the reason for not turning up, no?
