Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1222 - Whipped on the Buttocks

Chapter 1222 Whipped on the Buttocks

He could only quench his thirst by carrying someone else’s children.

It was like quenching thirst by drinking poison. They were other people’s children. No matter what, he had to return them to the parents.

It was even more painful when he held other people’s children in his arms, but his daughter did not have her own child.

He had known it long ago that once Shi Qing joined the army, she would work as hard as how he was back in the army. Therefore, Shi Peng was very against it when Shi Qing said that she wanted to follow his path.

He might be stubborn, but his daughter was even more obstinate than him. She transferred to the military school secretly. By the time he found out, it was too late to change anything.

Shi Peng fumed at the thought of this.

Zhai Sheng could tell that Shi Peng was upset. Since he was his master, Zhai Sheng would not go overboard. “You have good fortune as well. Shi Qing has chosen well.” Zhai Sheng darted a glance at the foolish Zhu Baoguo, who was teasing Er Bao.

He was willing to help Shi Qing as he owed it to her. Besides, it was better for him to make the arrangements than for her to keep it from everyone and make the transfer.

If that was the case, when something happened to Shi Qing, nobody would learn of it. There would be no one to help her and she might not be able to return safely.

It was useless to keep stopping her. At times, one had to go along with her as well.

Zhai Sheng knew that Shi Qing was a courageous person. Once she had decided on something, she would do it no matter how other people objected to it. She would even keep it from everyone to get what she wanted, going all out to accomplish her dreams.

It was true that he had interfered in this matter, but he also gave Shi Peng and Shi Qing time to deal with it and accept her decisions.

Given how determined Shi Qing was, they had no other alternative. This was the best solution.

Shi Peng understood Zhai Sheng’s intentions, but he was unable to forgive him easily. “Let’s talk about this later.” He would deal with his daughter later. As for his disciple, he would not let him off so easily either.

Shi Peng had taught Shi Qing a lesson at the Zhai family’s residence. Qiao Nan had no idea how Shi Peng punished Shi Qing when they went back home, but she heard that Shi Qing was unable to get off the bed on her third day in the capital. She had to stay in bed for an entire day before she was able to move about.

Qiao Nan knew that Shi Qing must have been whipped on the buttocks.

It was the Lunar New Year’s eve. Every family in the capital was preparing for Lunar New Year. Some were happy while some were upset.

In the past, when Feng Cheng did not stay in the same city with her husband and daughter, she would spend Lunar New Year at her parents’ home.

This year, although all of them were in the capital, she stayed at the Shi family’s residence to spend Lunar New Year with her husband and daughter. She would visit her parents’ home on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Shi Qing was still in school, but she had completed the mission and was awarded a medal. The Feng family was especially thrilled when they learned of the good news. They made several calls to the Shi family, asking about Shi Qing and instructing Feng Cheng to prepare nutritious food for Shi Qing, hoping that she could regain her strength during the Lunar New Year.

The Feng family also invited them, saying that although all of them lived in the capital, it was still necessary for them to keep in contact.

Shi Qing was the only young lady in the Feng family. They hoped that she could join them for dinner during the new year and stay over for a few days to catch up with each other.

The Feng family might have it all planned out, but Shi Qing had other plans.

Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan had to part with the triplets on the first day of the Lunar New Year to take the plane back to Ping Cheng, paying a visit to the Qiao family. Shi Qing decided to take the same flight back to Ping Cheng with Qiao Nan.

Zhu Chengqi might have been transferred to the capital, but the rest of the Zhu family, especially Elder Zhu, was still in Ping Cheng.

Since Qiao Nan and Shi Qing would be going to Ping Cheng, Zhu Baoguo told Zhu Chengqi that he would make a trip back to visit Old Master Zhu, assuring him that the father and son were doing well in the capital.

Zhu Chengqi welcomed his son’s suggestion.

Zhu Chengqi had no time to pay his father a visit. Even if Zhu Baoguo did not make the suggestion, he would tell his son to make a trip to Ping Cheng. Since he offered to go, Zhu Chengqi gave him a sum of money for his trip to Ping Cheng.

Now that Zhu Chengqi and Zhu Baoguo were not in Ping Cheng, most of the time, it was Wang Yang and his family that took care of Old Master Zhu.

When Zhu Baoguo was back in Ping Cheng, he had to take care of Old Master Zhu as well as be nice to the Wang family.

Zhu Baoguo had to give some money to the Wang family so that they would help look after Old Master Zhu if he felt unwell. If he had to be sent to the capital for treatment, Zhu Chengqi would take over to take care of him.

A year had passed. Apart from visiting Old Master Zhu, Zhu Baoguo had to visit the Lee family as well as his maternal relatives.

Zhu Baoguo had more valid reasons to go back to Ping Cheng than Shi Qing, who was there for fun.

Shi Qing said that it was because of Qiao Nan that she went back to Ping Cheng.

However, upon reaching Ping Cheng, instead of accompanying Qiao Nan to visit the Qiao family, she spent all her time with Zhu Baoguo. She accompanied him as he visited the Zhu family, the Lee family, and other relatives.

Qiao Nan was amused at Shi Qing’s behavior. “Is Shi Qing taking the initiative to visit her in-laws?”

She had yet to marry Zhu Baoguo, but she had fulfilled her duties as Zhu Baoguo’s wife. “Brother Zhai, do you think it is good that Shi Qing behaves in this way? Will the Zhu family and the Lee family look down on her in the future? Will she be bullied by Zhu Baoguo?”

In the matters of the heart, the party who was in love first was doomed to be the loser.

Shi Qing was more mature than Zhu Baoguo. Qiao Nan was worried that her only good friend would be bullied after she was married.

“Don’t worry.” Zhai Sheng was very confident. “Apart from getting confused back when she had feelings for me, Shi Qing is, in fact, a very sharp and smart girl. In general, people would be witless with regard to things that concerned them. But it is the opposite for her. She is able to think clearly about the matters related to her. She will make a good soldier. It will be a loss to the army and the country if she is a normal office worker.”

Shi Qing was exceptionally calm when she was on her missions. This positive trait of hers worked to her advantage.

“Alright, now that we are back, should we go to the Qiao family’s residence?” Nan Nan kept worrying about Shi Qing. Was she using this to avoid meeting the Qiao family?

Qiao Nan’s countenance changed. She turned to hug Zhai Sheng.
