Chapter 607: Will You Accept Someone Like Qiao Nan?Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You want Dad to help you clean up the mess that you’ve created. Aren’t you being too much with this att.i.tude?” Zhai Hua sat down hard on the sofa. The soft feel on her bottom made her sigh. True enough, home was the most comfortable place. “Dad, when Mom was with you outside in the past, was her temper always like that?”
Zhai Yaohui did not deny.
At this juncture, Zhai Hua laughed. “Dad, why didn’t I hear you mentioned this before? All these years, I have been thinking that mom was the one accommodating you. She doesn’t even bother about Zhai Sheng and me anymore. So, you’re the one who became mom’s scapegoat. Given Mom’s such temper, it seems that you didn’t live as good a life as Zhai Sheng and I thought for these twenty years.”
So what if his wife was always by his side? The wife was occasionally muddleheaded and had an extremely strong temper.
She did not understand what her grandfather saw in her mother that he insisted that her mother married into the Zhai family.
Zhai Yaohui gave Zhai Hua a look of warning and hinted at her not to go overboard. No matter what, Miao Miao was Hua Hua’s biological mother. Could Hua Hua treat her elder in such a manner?
“Mom, did you see that? My dad treats you much better than what we think. He has to see your frowning and sulky look occasionally, especially when the Qiu family visited us. You looked so bitter as if you’re nursing a deep hatred. I really once believed how much Dad made you suffer. Mom, you have to cherish your fortune. It’s not easy to meet someone like Dad. Don’t be too much.”
Zhai Hua only knew today that the way her parents got along was not as simple as what she thought previously. Her mother, because of her family background, not only had low self-esteem but was also looked down upon by people around her.
Moreover, her father was also not the kind of male chauvinist that would entirely disregard his wife’s feelings and turn a blind eye to her mother’s pain.
So, over these years, it was not her mother accommodating her father but her father tolerating her mother?
After all, every time the Qiu family visited and left, her mother would flare up. Also, each time, she and Zhai Sheng would cast ugly looks at their father as they felt that he had bullied their mother. It had been so many years and her father had endured it silently. Hence, the one who was really suffering was not her mother but her father.
Zhai Hua looked at Zhai Yaohui with eyes full of empathy: To have such a worrisome wife and two biased children…’Dad, you’re so pitiful.’
Zhai Yaohui saw through Zhai Hua’s thoughts immediately. He was so furious that he nearly threw the newspapers in his hands at Zhai Hua’s face. Pitiful? How was he pitiful? His wife was virtuous and he had few worries. Moreover, both his children were capable and completely unlike those from other families who had so many bad habits. “The matter regarding the Qian family, I’ve already contacted them.”
Miao Jing, who nearly stood up upon hearing her daughter’s words, felt a little surprised when she heard this good news. “You’ve contacted them?”
“Yes, the Qian family understands now.”
The minute Miao Jing stepped out of the door to look for Qiao Nan, Zhai Yaohui had found out what the phone number of the Qian family was. He gave a call to Secretary Qian and expressed that Zhai Sheng did not inform the family that he was in a romantic relations.h.i.+p. Hence, Miao Jing was unaware of this matter and thus arranged the blind date. Everything was a misunderstanding and they were very sorry to have wasted Qian Mufang’s one day of time.
As soon as these words were out, it was clear that the Zhai family did not object to the relations.h.i.+p between Zhai Sheng and his current girlfriend.
Secretary Qian was not willing to give up yesterday because of Miao Jing’s att.i.tude.
