Chapter 835 - Still Dreaming (1/2)
His maternal granddaughter was the only person who was qualified to be engaged to Zhai Sheng. No other person’s granddaughter could be engaged to him.
“…” It was Qi Minlan’s turn to be silent. She did not know what to say.
She did not know how she should put it across that Zhai Sheng was indeed getting engaged, but the young lady was not her daughter. Instead, it was someone whom they had the least suspicions and that she came from a humble background.
Qi Minlan was not willing to say all these as it would mean that Qiu Chenxi had lost to someone who was not as good as her. It was too shameful.
“What’s wrong? Hasn’t Chenxi made up with the son of the Zhai family? If that is so, Chenxi is not moving fast enough. It’s been more than two years. I know that there isn’t any girl around that man. As long as Chenxi works on it, their relations.h.i.+p will work. Tell Chenxi to put in more effort.”
“Dad, what I am telling you now is regarding my marriage to Qiu Qin. Do you think I should get a divorce?” Qi Minlan directed the conversation back to her original topic.
She also wished for her daughter to be engaged and to marry Zhai Sheng, but it was impossible.
Zhai Sheng had filed the marriage report. He would be engaged soon. In the past, he did not like her daughter, and it was all the more impossible now.
Qi Minlan knew that it was impossible to create a done deal.
The men from the Zhai family were blockheads. They would never be intimate with any other ladies. Back then, Zhai Yaohui did not do so, and now, Zhai Sheng would not do so as well.
Otherwise, her daughter would have been pregnant with Zhai Sheng’s child, and Qiao Nan could have never got in the picture.
“You definitely have to get a divorce.” old Master s.h.i.+ sighed. “He has done such illegal things. Like you said, if you don’t get a divorce, it would implicate s.h.i.+ Peng.”
“…” She meant that she would be implicating the s.h.i.+ family, while her father said that it would implicate s.h.i.+ Peng alone. Could it be that to her father, s.h.i.+ Peng was equivalent to the entire s.h.i.+ family?
No, it could not be. s.h.i.+ Peng said that her father had some connections. Therefore, her father must be the person who was in charge of the s.h.i.+ family.
Although s.h.i.+ Peng was not a good brother, he never lied to her. “Dad, you have to help me. I have to get a divorce as soon as possible. We cannot allow things to drag any further. Zhai Sheng only agreed to give Chenxi one month’s time. I feel that it is better that we settle everything within this week. What do you think?”
“Look, Zhai Sheng still treats Chenxi very well. He is a sentimental man. Since he can give her one month, it proves that he is fond of her.” Therefore, it was highly likely that they could be in-laws with the Zhai family.
It was useless to discuss it. As long as Zhai Sheng liked Chenxi, n.o.body would be able to object to it.
