Without clearing this obstacle, his mother would never accept Nan Nan as her daughter-in-law. Before that, he and Nan Nan must not tell his mother about their relations.h.i.+p.

Since Zhai Sheng had given her a warning, Zhai Hua was tactful enough to keep her silence lest others heard about what she said.

Qiu Chenxi paled at Miao Jing’s words. “Auntie Miao, are you serious?” Miao Jing would rather choose Qiao Nan than her?

Qiu Chenxi took a few deep breaths and turned to look at Zhai Yaohui reluctantly. “Uncle Zhai, you have always seen me as the daughter of a good friend. I’m not angry that Auntie Miao misunderstood me, but I want to know your thoughts on this.”

Zhai Yaohui sighed. “Qiu Chenxi, it doesn’t matter what Auntie Miao or I think about this. What matters is how Zhai Sheng thinks about this. Do you understand?”

He was helpless that Zhai Sheng did not like Qiu Chenxi.

In fact, as long as Zhai Sheng was willing, Qiao Nan would not be in the picture.

He might have already been engaged to Qiu Chenxi even before he knew Qiao Nan.

“Does it mean you agree that it’s over between Brother Zhai and me?” Qiu Chenxi had a look of absurdness on her face. They had already agreed on it years ago! How could they have a change of mind now?!

Zhai Sheng did so as he had someone else in mind, but what about Zhai Yaohui?

Zhai Yaohui should be trying means and ways to please her because of her mother.

Once Zhai Yaohui made a decision, he would never regret it. “Chenxi, you are still young. You are educated and beautiful. In the future, there will be lots of opportunities to meet boys who are suitable for you. When you get married, I will definitely prepare wedding gifts for you.”

He had watched Qiu Chenxi as she grew up. If she married in the future, he would be willing to prepare some dowry for her, let alone wedding gifts.

Qiu Chenxi’s face was as pale as a sheet. Her frail body trembled slightly. She was a pitiful sight.

After thinking for a while, Qiu Chenxi gritted her teeth, trying to maintain her broken self-esteem. “Uncle Zhai, according to what you just said, does it mean that as long as Brother Zhai likes me and is willing to marry me, you will still accept me?”

“Yes.”

“Nonsense!” Miao Jing glared at Zhai Yaohui. “You may have agreed, but I don’t agree. Anyone can marry into the Zhai family but her. If she wants to marry into our family, fine, she will move in, but I will move out right away!”

Miao Jing, who left no room for discussion, did not know that in the previous life, Qiu Chenxi married Zhai Sheng with the help of Zhai Yaohui and her.

In fact, even if Miao Jing did not fall out with Qiu Chenxi and Qi Minlan, since the first day Qiu Chenxi married Zhai Sheng and moved into the Zhai family’s residence, Miao Jing moved out of the house and would rather live by herself in a small quad than seeing Qiu Chenxi every single day.
