Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1316
Chapter 1316: I Heard That Someone Confessed His Love to You
Miao Jing had been watching everything from the side with a wide smile on her face. “Although Nan Nan is very young, she is definitely the best mother that I have seen all these years.” She could not be compared to Nan Nan. She was too lacking.
“That’s true.” Zhai Hua felt invigorated after drinking porridge. She felt refreshed after one night’s sleep, and gone was the exhaustion that she felt yesterday. “When Nan Nan just gave birth to the triplets, many people praised Qiao Nan for giving birth to the triplets, but they were laughing at her behind her back, saying that she was very young and was just a child. It was good enough if she could take care of herself. How could she care for the three children? The truth proved otherwise.”
Nan Nan’s children were smarter and cuter than other children.
Other mothers might be older.
But it was useless to be older!
“Alright, let’s not talk about me. Sister Zhai Hua, you are getting married. Are you nervous?” Qiao Nan blushed at the praises. She changed the topic by reminding Zhai Hua that she was about to become a bride. Instead of gossiping about her, Sister Zhai Hua should think about her life once she was married.
Zhai Hua waved her hand nonchalantly. “It is merely a marriage. What’s there to be nervous about? Life will just go on. If Dongzi dares to rebel, I will show him what I am capable of!” Zhai Hua clenched her fists confidently.
Qiao Nan took out the dress that she had made halfway for San Bao and began working on it, pedaling on the sewing machine. “Sister Zhai Hua, you must not underestimate your enemy. Some people might be useless despite being older. But it might be a different case for people who are taller and stronger.” Tian Dong seemed to be easygoing. Apart from being very tall, he still had a good temper like when he was young. He was still as mild-tempered as Sister Zhai Hua had described.
However, Qiao Nan felt that things might not be that simple.
In particular, when Zhai Hua made the comment, she noticed that the corners of Zhai Sheng’s lips curled slightly, as if he was smiling at something.
Since she had a good relationship with Zhai Hua, and Qiao Nan had noticed something odd, she must remind Zhai Hua about it.
Qiao Nan could do nothing about it if Zhai Hua chose not to believe in her.
If Zhai Hua was forewarned, she would not be shortchanged. However, if she was too confident of herself…
Qiao Nan shook her head. Since men were physically stronger than women, Sister Zhai Hua might be ravished by Tian Dong on their wedding day.
Tian Dong had a close relationship with Brother Zhai. Qiao Nan believed that Tian Dong was not someone to be trifled with. Like Brother Zhai, he must be full of vigor and vitality.
Since she had given Zhai Hua a gentle reminder, she had done her part. It was up to Zhai Hua to believe it or not. She had no time to waste. She had to hurry up to complete the dress that was for her daughter.
Zhai Sheng walked quietly to stand beside Qiao Nan. His back faced the rest of them while he gave a small bite on Qiao Nan’s earlobe. “I heard that Tian Dong is giving you one percent of shares? If you continue to make trouble for him, he might not work hard to earn money for you in the future.”
Qiao Nan blushed. She darted to the side and looked around with a guilty conscience. She was worried that other people might have witnessed the scene. “My husband will support me. I do not lack money. Moreover, I am already in my third year. I will graduate soon. After I start working, although I will not be able to make lots of money, I will still be able to support myself. As for Da Bao, Er Bao, and San Bao, you will have to provide for them.”
Qiao Nan had been married to Zhai Sheng for quite some time. They were open and frank with each other about their finances. Now that they were married and became closer to each other, their feelings for each other did not fade. Instead, they were more in love than before. They had a harmonious and loving relationship.
Zhai Sheng grinned at Qiao Nan’s reply. There was a teasing note in his tone. “Now that you are a mother, you have improved. You are good with words.”
“Is it okay that you came back for Sister Zhai Hua’s wedding?” Qiao Nan was worried as she knew that Peng Yu had set himself against Zhai Sheng. “I am not very sure of the situation in the army. Brother Zhai, you must be careful. The triplets are very young. They need their father to be by their side. Brother Zhai, I could not help but be in a slight panic.”
Zhai Sheng had encountered quite a lot of trouble after he arrived in the capital. Peng Yu, in particular, was quite a bother.
Zhai Sheng had never had such issues when he was in Ping Cheng. Qiao Nan could not imagine the troubles and challenges that Zhai Sheng faced when he was in the camp during this period of time.
There was another matter that Qiao Nan was very troubled about.
Whenever Zhai Sheng was back, he would be particularly ‘busy’ at night. Although he was naked, Qiao Nan was in a daze and not in her right mind, so she could not really see for herself how he looked.
Even so, she could tell when she touched him that he had a lot of scars on his body.
At times, Qiao Nan’s hands would come to rest on his skin. They used to be smooth, but recently, she could feel scars on his body.
However, whenever she chanced upon his scars, Zhai Sheng would grab her hands and held them down over her head.
Although Zhai Sheng had this habit in the past, he would do this more frequently now that they were in the capital.
Previously, Qiao Nan did not have the chance to talk to Zhai Sheng about this topic. Today, she finally had the chance to have a good talk with him. She no longer wished to avoid the topic. She was very direct about it and told Zhai Sheng that she was worried and frightened. “I heard that Peng Yu is ruthless…”
This kind of person was the scariest of all.
After she married Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan knew that it was common for ‘accidents’ to happen to soldiers during their military drill. Death and injuries were seen as common.
Qiao Nan was not worried that Peng Yu would fight it out with Zhai Sheng. Instead, she feared that he would resort to underhanded methods to catch Zhai Sheng unaware.
Zhai Sheng held Qiao Nan by the waist, taking in her unique smell. He felt particularly calm and peaceful at this fragrance. “I can’t hide anything from you. Yes, Peng Yu had used some underhanded methods, but I have survived them.”
“What kind of underhanded methods?” Qiao Nan wanted to know what kind of underhanded methods Peng Yu used to catch Brother Zhai unaware and for him to suffer serious injuries.
There was a flicker in Zhai Sheng’s eyes. “Are you sure you want to know?”
“Yes!”
“I heard that someone confessed his love to you when you were in school. He even knelt on one knee and prepared nine hundred and ninety-nine roses to prove that he was sincere and for you to become his girlfriend?”
