Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 2137

Chapter 2137: Perfect

With a big belly, Nan Nan’s movements would definitely not be convenient and she shouldn’t do anything hasty, right? Nan Nan didn’t look like someone insensible who would joke around with her and her children’s lives.

The auntie hesitated a bit. She didn’t know if she should tell Qiao Dongliang about Qiao Nan’s situation. The auntie faintly felt that Qiao Nan didn’t have a good relationship with the Qiao family. The only person Qiao Nan still kept in contact with from her family was Qiao Dongliang. However, the Zhai family didn’t mention this name from the Qiao family often either.

Based on this complicated relationship, the auntie didn’t know what could be said to Qiao Dongliang and what couldn’t.

“Is it Nan Nan? Did something happen to Nan Nan?” Qiao Dongliang’s face changed. “Didn’t you always say that Nan Nan is in good health and both she and the children are alright? Did something happen? Did someone bully Nan Nan?”

As a pregnant woman who had always been in good health, Qiao Nan’s and the children’s situations would have turned grim only if Qiao Nan suffered interference from the outside world. Upon thinking that Qiao Nan’s birth was very ordinary as compared to Zhai Sheng’s, Qiao Dongliang wasn’t the least bit surprised that someone would bully Qiao Nan. But it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t be angry at all. Whose children were not raised by their parents? So what if their Qiao family’s conditions were a bit poorer? This didn’t mean that their children could be casually bullied by others.

“Mr. Qiao, don’t be nervous. Nan Nan is the Zhai family’s treasure. Who dares to bully Nan Nan? It’s just that Nan Nan is no longer young and she’s pregnant with three children. Pregnant women who are carrying multiple children are inherently at a higher risk level compared to pregnant women who are carrying a single child. As such, Nan Nan went to the hospital in advance to protect her children.” It seemed like Mr. Qiao’s concern for Nan Nan was genuine.

“Went to the hospital to protect her children?” Qiao Dongliang grasped the keywords. “That means to say that Qiao Nan’s situation isn’t very optimistic indeed? How are Nan Nan and the children? Are there any improvements? What did the doctor say?” Qiao Dongliang was so anxious that he felt his heart was on fire.

His daughter wasn’t before him. It really wasn’t too convenient for him to find out more about Qiao Nan’s situation. By asking over the phone, the other party might not be able to share details clearly. In short, if he didn’t see for himself that his younger daughter was indeed alright, his heart couldn’t settle down.

“Which hospital is Nan Nan in now? I’ll go to the capital to see her.” Since he wasn’t feeling at ease, he should make a trip down to see for himself personally. Qiao Dongliang always thought that with the Zhai family taking care of Qiao Nan, Qiao Nan’s pregnancy would be smooth-sailing and there wouldn’t be any issues.

When he heard the auntie mention today that Qiao Nan was getting older and it was even tougher on pregnant women with multiple children compared to pregnant women with a single child, Qiao Dongliang thought of Qiao Nan’s actual situation. Qiao Dongliang heard of the term ‘geriatric pregnancy’ before.

If it were in the past, Qiao Dongliang would never be able to ‘travel’ on a whim. Thankfully, after obtaining two hundred thousand yuan from Ding Jiayi, Qiao Dongliang became more confident when he said these words. He no longer needed to ask anyone else for money. If he wanted to go to the capital to see his daughter and grandchildren, he could.

As he had money in his pockets now, Qiao Dongliang was completely capable of arranging a place for him to live in after reaching the capital. He didn’t need to trouble the Zhai family and throw Qiao Nan’s face or be looked down upon by the Zhai family.

“This…” The auntie wanted to say that the matter wasn’t that serious and Qiao Dongliang didn’t need to make this trip. The auntie personally heard Qiao Nan telling Qiao Dongliang over the phone previously that Qiao Dongliang should come to the capital as her children’s grandfather only after her confinement to celebrate their one hundred days of birth.

Anyway, if Qiao Dongliang came over, he wouldn’t be of much help or change Qiao Nan’s situation. At that time, there would be one more person who knew about this matter and it would be more troublesome. As such, it was better for him not to come over.

It was just that before the auntie could finish expressing her opinions, the anxious Qiao Dongliang had long made his decision and hung up the call. After hanging up the call, Qiao Dongliang rushed to the train station and bought a ticket to go to the capital for the next day. After buying the ticket, Qiao Dongliang rushed home again and packed a few pieces of seasonal clothing and a thick coat for himself. After making all the preparations, he was just waiting for the train to go to the capital tomorrow.

“Dad, what are you doing?” Ever since that failed conversation, Qiao Dongliang’s attitude toward Qiao Zijin became colder, returning to the state that it was a few months ago. Qiao Dongliang dared to do so but Qiao Zijin didn’t. As long as she still wanted to have a good relationship with Qiao Nan, Qiao Zijin couldn’t lose either Qiao Dongliang, her father, or Ding Jiayi, her mother.

As long as Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi were alive, she and Qiao Nan were still close birth sisters. Once their parents were gone, it would depend entirely on each other if they would still be close or not. Qiao Zijin could guess what Qiao Nan was thinking about without waiting for the day their parents were gone. It was precisely because of this that Qiao Zijin knew clearly that as long as Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi were still alive, Qiao Nan didn’t need to think about getting rid of her. More or less, Qiao Nan had to let her benefit in some way.

Based on this situation, Qiao Zijin didn’t pay less attention to Qiao Dongliang than before their argument.

Seeing that Qiao Dongliang spent quite some time in his room alone, Qiao Zijin felt extremely curious and entered his room. After that, she saw Qiao Dongliang’s packed luggage. “Dad, are you going on a holiday? Why didn’t I hear you mention this before?”

Her father was becoming trendier as he became older. When he was young, he didn’t head outside often. Now, he was going to be in his seventies but he could leave his family behind and lead a carefree life outside alone.

However, that was good as well. Once her father left, it would be more convenient for her to do certain things. Also, once he left, it would be impossible for him to find out what happened to Qiao Nan’s pregnancy. If her father didn’t know, he wouldn’t create trouble and ruin her plan.

Upon thinking about this, Qiao Zijin felt that it was desirable. “That’s right as well. Dad, at your age, you should let go. While you can still walk, go out, see more things, and have fun. If it wasn’t inconvenient, I would have accompanied you outside. Oh right, Dad. It has been tough on Mom to be with you for half her lifetime. Bring her along as well. I’ll fork out all the money.”

She would pay for her mother’s expenses. She could also fork out her father’s share. At that time, both her parents wouldn’t be at home. With her mother keeping an eye on her father, he couldn’t create trouble. Her mother could also control the situation between her and Qiao Nan remotely via mobile. Before Qiao Nan died, she could request a little something as well. Perfect!
