“Don’t worry. Zhai Hua is very quick-witted. She will be fine. It has been so many years. Have you seen anything happen to her before?” Zhai Sheng kept silent for a while before comforting Miao Jing.

“Yes, it’s just that nothing serious happened to her. Nevertheless, she is a young lady. I am worried that n.o.body will want her with her scars.” Over the years, Zhai Hua might have been fine, but she still had her share of injuries and scars. It did not look good on her to have so many scars.

As her mother, she felt sorry for her daughter.

“To soldiers, scars are their medals.” Zhai Sheng disagreed.

“What c.r.a.p are you talking about!” Miao Jing could not help but use Qiao Nan’s tone of voice. “If you are so capable, no matter how difficult the mission is, you should not hurt yourself. You are clearly a rookie. Hence, you suffered those injuries. It has nothing to do with glory.”

“Rookie?” Zhai Sheng looked up toward Miao Jing. He had never heard Miao Jing used this word, but from her tone, it did not seem to be a good word. “Where did you learn it from?”

In order to be comparable to his father, his mother specially learned etiquette. She had stopped using all those swear words and dirty words.

Those who did not know his mother would have thought that his mother had a good family background.

Of course, Zhai Sheng heard this from Old Master Zhai. Old Master Zhai was worried because Miao Jing spent all her time on Zhai Yaohui and neglected her children. He always shared with his grandchildren about what happened when Miao Jing and Zhai Yaohui were young, and that Miao Jing did not have an easy time.

It was all thanks to Old Master Zhai that Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua never once complained about Miao Jing.

“What do you mean by that? Stop evading my question.” Miao Jing refused to admit that she learned it from others.

Since Miao Jing refused to admit, Zhai Sheng did not probe further. He could easily guess the answer.

His mother’s life revolved around his father. Apart from him, she did not have many friends and she did not have many chances to interact with others. Come to think of it, his mother led a life revolving her husband and had no time for herself.

But Zhai Sheng was elated that Qiao Nan would have such a huge influence on Miao Jing.

“But you’re right. Zhai Hua and I should be more careful. Mom, is there anything else?”

“I want to talk to you about Qiu Chenxi. I have said that as long as you are unwilling, I won’t force you to be with Qiu Chenxi. But your biggest problem now is not me, but your dad. If you don’t intend to be with Qiu Chenxi, you must do something.” Miao Jing was anxious for her son.

Miao Jing was worried that Zhai Sheng’s engagement with Qiu Chenxi would be finalized without him knowing.

“Don’t worry. Dad may be very happy to see us married, but the engagement doesn’t count if I am not present. In the future, there is no way that we can be married if I refuse to sign the papers. If my dad could make that happen without my agreement, I would have to hand it to him.”
