Zhai Hua felt warm inside. “Wei De, I know you care about me and my family. But our family is like this, and everyone is used to it. We will not drift apart just because we don’t spend time together.” More importantly, she was brought up by her grandpa. She spent very little time with her parents.

In the past, she felt comfortable when she was alone with Zhai Sheng at home.

But right now, if Zhai Sheng was not at home, Zhai Hua felt particularly awkward with Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing around.

If Miao Jing decided to have a chat with her, Zhai Hua would wish that she had a pair of wings so that she could fly back to the camp. She felt very uncomfortable around Miao Jing.

What happened with Qiao Nan was also a chance for Zhai Hua, who felt awkward at home, to find a reason to cancel her leave and return to the camp. In that way, she did not need to force herself to stay at home and she could return to the camp to spend more time with Wei De.

There was a flicker in Wei De’s eyes. He smiled and touched Zhai Hua’s head. “Little fool, have you heard of a saying that sometimes, the parents pa.s.s away before the child has a chance to repay their kindness? I know you are not used to it, but when you finally get used to it, you may not have the chance anymore. By then, you will have regrets.”

“Wei De, you think too much.” Zhai Hua smiled. “My parents are in good health. What you said will not happen.” She was only twenty-seven years old this year. Her parents would live to old age.

However, what Wei De said was true. Even if she was not used to it, she should gradually get used to it. It would not do to avoid it.

“Alright, it’s fine as long as you know what you are doing. I don’t want you to regret it in the future. The thought of that pains me.” Wei De let Zhai Hua lean on his shoulder. “By the way, I heard from you that Regiment Commander Zhai has a girlfriend. How is that lady? Regiment Commander Zhai does not have much experience in dating. You are his elder sister. You must keep a lookout for him. People used to say that women are good at judging other women. Even if the lady is all pretenses, and Regiment Commander is being carried away by love and loses his judgment, I believe that you will stay clear-minded.”

Zhai Hua, who was used to putting up a strong front since a young age, seldom leaned on someone else’s shoulder. However, after trying it out, Zhai Hua had grown to like this feeling of leaning on others.

Zhai Hua stretched out her legs to get into a comfortable position. “You can rest a.s.sured that the young lady has a good personality. Not only does Zhai Sheng like her, but our family likes her very much as well. Even though Zhai Sheng and I are still young and are not a good judge of character, my parents can tell if she is a good lady or not.”

Zhai Hua dared not tell Wei De that after his reminder last time, she had been observing and sounding out Qiao Nan.

In the end, it did not prove that Qiao Nan was pretending to be nice. Instead, she had angered Zhai Sheng such that he told her off and reminded her of the foolish deeds that she did in the past.

“Being able to be with the young lady, Zhai Sheng is in high spirits. We don’t have to worry about him. I have already told you that it all depends on the young lady whether we can be together in the future.” She was hoping that Zhai Sheng’s relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Nan would turn out well. When everything was settled, she would bring Wei De to meet her parents.

Wei De knew of Zhai Hua’s plan.

Wei De was thrilled at the thought that he could become a family with Chief Zhai and Madam Zhai. “You shouldn’t be thinking that way. I believe Chief Zhai and Madam Zhai are open-minded. Besides, we are in the modern age. What is important is that both parties have feelings for each other. Their family background and social status do no matter. I believe that as long as I am good to you and want to spend the rest of my life with you, they will agree to our relations.h.i.+p. It has nothing to do with the relations.h.i.+p between Regiment Commander Zhai and the young lady. Even without them, I am confident that Chief Zhai and Madam Zhai will be moved by my sincerity.”
