Chapter 577 - Shi Qing Had No Hopes (2/2)

“I don’t care if it has been ages ago. I am afraid that someone will forget about it without my reminder.” Could he easily let go of the feelings that he had for his old lover?

Miao Jing had her Achilles heel and so did Zhai Yaohui. Zhai Yaohui was defenseless at the mention of the Qiu family.

Zhai Yaohui ma.s.saged his temples. “Alright, must you harp on this? Okay, say no more, will that do?”

Miao Jing snorted and pulled a long face. There was a look of hurt in her eyes. If Zhai Yaohui really did not care about Qi Minlan, why would he have such a big reaction at the mention of her? To put it bluntly, the woman who Zhai Yaohui was most concerned about was still Qi Minlan.

No wonder Qi Minlan was so smug. She had reasons to be happy.

Even though she was married to Zhai Yaohui, his heart belonged to Qi Minlan.

Miao Jing felt that theirs was a hopeless marriage.

Miao Jing felt hopeless, but Qi Minlan was in a worse state than her!

“Are you saying that the people in the camp drove you out? And your uncle didn’t help you?” Qi Minlan ground her teeth in fury and hurled the cup that she had with her.

How could this be!

It was fine in the past.

Brother Zhai had said that Chenxi was a well-behaved child and she was a good match for Zhai Sheng. They were childhood sweethearts and their relations.h.i.+p was built on a strong foundation. It would be good if they could marry each other.

She was all ready to be the relative of Chief Zhai, yet someone threw a wrench in the works and the people from the Zhai family changed their att.i.tude completely.

Because of her, she knew that Miao Jing, that vixen, would never truly like Chenxi. But how could Brother Zhai change overnight? It was just like what happened back then. One minute, she was Brother Zhai’s girlfriend, and the next minute, Miao Jing turned out to be the one that he was going to marry!

People used to say that women were capricious, but men were the ones who were fickle-minded!

“Help me?” Qiu Chenxi sneered. “Do you know who the first person who pulled me away was? It was s.h.i.+ Qing! Didn’t she leave with Qiao Nan yesterday? Why was she back at the camp today? That’s it! It must be because s.h.i.+ Qing hasn’t gotten over Brother Zhai and as she knows that Brother Zhai and I are having some problems, she intends to avail herself of the opportunity to come in between us. Since she pulled me away, she must have the same intention as me. She wants to stay by Brother Zhai’s side while he is injured and take care of him. She is downright shameless and despicable!”

“Don’t be angry. You can rest a.s.sured that s.h.i.+ Qing can never marry Zhai Sheng.” Qi Minlan took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

“Why, why are you so certain?” Qiu Chenxi refused to believe her words. Since s.h.i.+ Qing had liked Brother Zhai for so many years, now was a good opportunity for s.h.i.+ Qing to come in between them. How could s.h.i.+ Qing give up at this time?

“Don’t forget. Zhai Sheng has a girlfriend that he likes but can’t go public. Besides, the most important thing is that your grandpa will never agree to the marriage between s.h.i.+ Qing and Zhai Sheng. s.h.i.+ Qing is the only child of the s.h.i.+ family and your uncle is very obstinate. He refused to have a second child with your auntie. Your grandpa’s thinking is outdated. He has already planned to take in a husband for s.h.i.+ Qing. She can never marry into another family. I heard that your grandpa is already on the lookout for possible candidates for s.h.i.+ Qing. Besides, given the Zhai family’s status, even if Zhai Sheng breaks up with the vixen, do you think he will marry into the s.h.i.+ family? That being said, it is impossible between s.h.i.+ Qing and Zhai Sheng. You don’t have to worry about her.”

“Mom, are you sure?” Qiu Chenxi’s eyes lit up. There was a look of joy on her face.
