Chapter 1069 - The Domineering Zhai Hua (1/2)
The men in the Zhai family, including her father-in-law, did not voice out any opposing views at the mention of Tian Dong. Hence, Miao Jing felt quite hopeful about Tian Dong.
Everyone in the Zhai family was happy except for Zhai Hua, who was pulling a long face. She almost wrote four words on her forehead: I am very displeased.
Who was Tian Dong? Why was it that she did not have any impression of him?
It was only when Zhai Sheng physically subdued Zhai Hua and carried Qiao Nan back to his room did Zhai Hua lay on her bed sullenly and yell all of a sudden, “Don’t tell me it is Dongzi?”
“Dongzi? Who is Dongzi?” In the other room, Qiao Nan was nestling in Zhai Sheng’s arms and looking at him with a pair of bright eyes. “I don’t think any of you have mentioned him before. Is he good-looking?”
Zhai Sheng narrowed his eyes. “You’re very concerned about his looks?”
“Of course I am. Although we should pay more attention to one’s inner substance, wouldn’t it be better if the other party also has exterior beauty and good looks? Otherwise, I am worried that your future nephew will be too horrible to look at.” When she saw Zhai Sheng’s expression changing, Qiao Nan was slightly angry as she patted him. “Don’t tell me you’re jealous? I am asking out of concern for Sister Zhai Hua, aren’t I?”
It was always better to face a handsome guy than a frog.
“Although Sister Zhai Hua has climbed out of a huge pit like Wei De, her mood hasn’t recovered fully. If this Dongzi is good-looking, wouldn’t the chances of a successful relations.h.i.+p be higher?”
Zhai Sheng was quite satisfied with Qiao Nan’s reply. “I take it that your words make sense.”
“Since you feel that my words make sense, quickly tell me about Dongzi. You said that Dongzi is the little husband that Sister Zhai Hua had decided for herself. If that is the case, why was Sister Zhai Hua involved with Wei De? Moreover, she couldn’t even recall who Dongzi is.” She had a feeling that this would be a very long story.
“When we were young, Zhai Hua and I had a lot of playmates, including Dongzi.”
“They were all childhood friends.” A bunch of them. “Does that mean Dongzi and Sister Zhai Hua were childhood sweethearts?”
“Not really. Dongzi moved away from the quad when he was quite young. His whole family migrated to America and only came back this year. When Dongzi left, Zhai Hua was only seven years old.” Twenty years had already pa.s.sed. There had been so many people surrounding Zhai Hua over the years. One could not blame her for forgetting who Dongzi was. “To be specific, Dongzi was not Zhai Hua’s little husband. He should be her little wife.”
Zhai Hua had a very outgoing and boyish character since she was young. She grew up by Old Master Zhai’s side. Hence, she had always lacked a senior female figure to guide and influence her.
When Zhai Hua was very young, she knew the difference between men and women. However, she did not have a very strong sense of gender awareness.
If Zhai Hua was akin to a fake young lad when she was a child, then Tian Dong, who was older than Zhai Hua by just two months, was like a fake young lady.
In comparison to Zhai Hua, Tian Dong was much quieter and not as noisy. Zhai Hua was naughty and outdoors every day whereas Tian Dong could follow Old Master Tian quietly by his side all the time.
When someone shouted for him, Tian Dong would respond with a shy smile, revealing his baby teeth.
In comparison to a bunch of naughty kids, Tian Dong was famous for being obedient at that time.
Zhai Sheng was also not as naughty as Zhai Hua when he was young. He was also quiet but his temper was not as good as that of Tian Dong. He would never respond to anyone’s teasing. If he was provoked, he would face the person with the back of his head.
As Tian Dong was too quiet and accommodating, occasionally, people would joke that it would be wonderful if Tian Dong was a young lady.
He was so fair, crisp-looking, and handsome. He had a good and quiet temperament. He did not behave like a boy at all.
