Chapter 966 - You Are Not Anxious, But I Am (2/2)
Seeing that Qiao Nan was so serious, her expression extremely solemn, s.h.i.+ Qing, who initially did not take this matter to heart and purely felt uneasy, was greatly taken aback. “Please don’t. I will. I will call him myself. Will that do?”
s.h.i.+ Qing did not expect that when she told s.h.i.+ Peng about this, her biological father’s reaction was more exaggerated than that of Qiao Nan. “Alright, I know. Next time, if the Feng family asks you to go to their house again, don’t go. Even if your mom requests you to do so, don’t go. Understand?”
“Yes,” s.h.i.+ Qing said softly. “Dad, don’t keep working overtime. Quickly rest.”
“I know.” s.h.i.+ Peng rubbed his forehead. A ball of fury was forming in his heart.
He had allowed his wife to return to her maternal family in the capital because the s.h.i.+ family did not treat her nicely. However, the Feng family seemed to be taking his politeness for granted. They dared to make plans about who his daughter was going to marry in the future. They had forgotten their boundaries.
Besides Qing Qing, who could decide for herself who she was going to be married to in the future, and as long as he was unwilling, the Feng family did not even have the right to intervene in this matter!
After hanging up the phone, s.h.i.+ Qing had not come to terms with this matter. “Dad is angry. He forbids me from going to the Feng’s residence again.” This was most surprising to s.h.i.+ Qing.
“Alright, your dad will handle this matter from now onward. You just have to listen to whatever your dad tells you to do.” Facing the silly s.h.i.+ Qing, who did not know the gravity of the situation, Qiao Nan was both angry and amused. “Remember. Regardless of whom the Feng family or your biological mother brings to see you, you have to make excuses and say that you are not available. Just say that you don’t even have time for lunch.”
“Do I really need to do that?” Were Qiao Nan and her father being too paranoid that they were apprehending danger at every bush and tree they saw?
“Unless you think that after Brother Zhai and I are engaged, you do not mind marrying any man that you have just met, you don’t have to take me and your dad’s words seriously then.” Qiao Nan felt her head hurt. The Feng family actually used this tactic. What exactly were they trying to do and what was their motive?
Upon hearing this, s.h.i.+ Qing was frightened. “Don’t worry. I will remember them.”
She would rather do without than to have something substandard, not to mention that she sincerely gave her blessings to Brother Zhai and Qiao Nan. How could she give up on herself to the extent that she did not care who she would marry because of their engagement?
Did not matter?
It mattered too much!
“s.h.i.+ Qing, have you caught up with the lessons at Zhu Baoguo’s end?” Qiao Nan could not help but feel worried. She was pursing her lips tightly.
“I’ve caught up. Zhu Baoguo sent me the examination papers that he had just taken. I scored better than him,” s.h.i.+ Qing said proudly.
“That’s good. Fortunately, Brother Zhai and his family are still in the capital. I will ask Brother Zhai to find a way to transfer you to PLA National Defence University.
After the Zhai family left, it would no longer be possible for her to help s.h.i.+ Qing transfer school. She did not have the capability to do so. The Feng family would be the only ones left who had the capability to do so.
s.h.i.+ Qing’s eyes lit up. “You’re sending me to be cla.s.smates with Zhu Baoguo? Actually, I am not anxious about it.” Of course, it would be best if it could happen earlier.
