Chapter 531: Both of You Are Too OutstandingTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Wrong, I am a warm-blooded animal.” So there was no need for hibernation. “Okay, from the looks of it, you seemed to have had a good talk with your dad. You should know that you can’t do anything about it, so stop dwelling over it.”

“Qiao Nan, you are a strange person.”

“How am I strange?”

“I couldn’t stop pondering about my dad’s resignation, yet you could accept it right away.”

“Bystander is always clear-minded.” She was not strange.

“No, that’s not what I mean. Don’t you think that your att.i.tude regarding this matter is too mature?”

Qiao Nan paused momentarily and was slightly nervous. “When you came asking me for help, you were already without reasons. If I were irrational as well, the two of us would only create more trouble for your dad. Daughters should be more sensible and caring. You should at least do that for your dad.”

“Go ahead and cook up stories.” s.h.i.+ Qing snorted, not taken in by Qiao Nan.

“I finally understand why Brother Zhai likes you so much. That’s because both of you are too outstanding, abnormal. Qiu Chenxi’s tactics and plots seemed so foolish and childish in front of both of you. Do you know why I like to stay in the army and why did I have such good results?” s.h.i.+ Qing had given up. Her father was right. It was true that she was not as good as Qiao Nan.

“Why?”

“Because of Brother Zhai. I have fallen for Brother Zhai the first time I saw him. In order to show off to me that she would marry a man who is very outstanding in the future, Qiu Chenxi always told me about how outstanding Brother Zhai is. He always ranked first in the exams and is very athletic. Though he is young, his fitness level is better than that of the special force in the army. He does not rely on his family. He has the ability and skills. Do you know why Brother Zhai was willing to send me to school amidst his busy schedule last time? Actually, Brother Zhai is too young to be the regiment commander, but my dad pushed for it. My dad said that Brother Zhai deserved it. It’s just that those people who were against Chief Zhai tried to prevent him from being promoted and insisted that he’s too young to take on the position.”

Of course, s.h.i.+ Peng pushed for it in the end, and that was why Zhai Sheng became the regiment commander at such a young age.

As s.h.i.+ Qing had said, Zhai Sheng had the capability to be the regiment commander, but without s.h.i.+ Peng’s help, he would only be promoted a few years later.

Zhai Sheng owed s.h.i.+ Peng a big favor.

“Qiu Chenxi did not expect that she has brought disaster upon herself.” Because of Qiu Chenxi, s.h.i.+ Qing had fallen head over heels in love with Brother Zhai. She would use Brother Zhai as her benchmark and would discipline herself to be as good as him in everything she did.

Qiao Nan remembered that Qiu Chenxi wanted to learn from Lin Yuankang back then. It seemed to be for similar reasons as well. Qiao Nan felt ashamed at that.

She had to admit that before she was in a relations.h.i.+p with Brother Zhai, she had wanted to carve out a good future for herself. Now that she was with Brother Zhai, her pressure was indeed greater and she wanted more so than ever to become a better person.

Men indeed did people great harm!
