“Zhai Sheng, didn’t you just come back from the Qiao family? How’s Nan Nan?” Miao Jing felt a little guilty. She knew that while she slept well last night, Qiao Nan did not.

At the thought of the look on Qiao Nan’s face this morning, Miao Jing even started to suspect if the way she looked when she slept had deteriorated recently. Otherwise, why would Qiao Nan become like that?

When Miao Jing mentioned Qiao Nan, Zhai Yaohui gave Zhai Sheng a glance. He was very displeased. This lad was keeping it from Miao Miao because of Qiao Nan.

Zhai Sheng ignored the interrogative eyes of Zhai Yaohui. “Quite good. Uncle Qiao knows how to take care of Nan Nan well. He even prepared soup for Nan Nan. Nan Nan is studying in senior high school now and the stress level is high. The good thing is that Uncle Qiao is very attentive. With Uncle Qiao taking care of her, there shouldn’t be any major problems.”

Most importantly, Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi were not in Ping Cheng. This greatly reduced Nan Nan’s stress among other factors. She was not only more relaxed but was also in a much better state than before.”

Miao Jing smiled. “That’s good.”

Zhai Yaohui frowned. Three vertical lines appeared on his forehead. Miao Miao was too simple and honest. She had no idea that she was kept in the dark by these two kids, Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan.

As if he had guessed Zhai Yaohui’s thoughts, Zhai Sheng threw him a glance and hinted at Zhai Yaohui not to kick him to the curb after he had outlived his usefulness. Zhai Yaohui snorted coldly and retracted his gaze. If the person that he had promised was Zhai Sheng, there would not be any problem.

However, he had an agreement with Qiao Nan. As the chief of the army, how could he not keep to his words and lie to a young lady?

Zhai Yaohui flipped the newspaper that he did not manage to read at all. “Miao Miao, I’m meeting Qiu Qin tomorrow. Are you coming with me?”

“It’s not good for me to go. It won’t be nice if I disturb Qi Minlan and you from reminiscing about the past.” It was another meeting with the Qiu family. Of course, she would not go!

In the future, as long as Qiu Chenxi and Qi Minlan were present, she would not join in the fun. Since she could not afford to provoke them, she would just avoid them.

This time, after Miao Jing sorted out her thoughts, she particularly detested Qi Minlan and Qiu Chenxi. Even Qiu Qin was affected.

In actual fact, ever since Miao Jing sorted out her thoughts, she did not understand why Qiu Qin did not seem to have any feelings in regard to the relations.h.i.+p between Zhai Yaohui and Qi Minlan. As a woman, she did not feel at ease and was extremely unhappy about it. However, Qiu Qin was even willing to marry his daughter to Zhai Sheng. Was he still considered a man?

“Qi Minlan won’t be going. It’ll just be Qiu Qin and me tomorrow.” It was rare that Zhai Yaohui was patiently explaining this to Miao Jing.

Miao Jing hesitated for a while. “What do you wish to talk to Qiu Qin about? Qi Minlan will not be there, yet you want me to go along?”

“Since none of you are willing to, then let’s forget about the matter between Zhai Sheng and Qiu Chenxi. However, the two families have been talking about this for years. Even if it’s not going to happen, we should formally discuss this with the other family to express our apologies. It’s not good to hold back Qiu Chenxi.”

Zhai Yaohui was accustomed to having a proper closure in everything. Even if the matter did not work out eventually, they should formally inform the other party and not leave any doubts or areas of uncertainty.

If the Qiu family misunderstood their intentions and Qiu Chenxi did not find another boyfriend, they would be holding her back during her prime years. That would not be good.

It was not an issue if they did not become in-laws, but they should not become enemies.
