Chapter 1572: You Have Heard It
Zhou Zheng’s father took a glimpse of his wife, wanting to see if she was serious about her words. She loved Ying Ying so much. How could she bear to send Ying Ying away to the capital? It would be difficult to visit her in the future.
She didn’t look at him and held tight onto the little girl who was still asleep. “Zijin, we’ll meet again when the time comes. Bye-bye.”
“See you.” Zhou Zheng’s father nodded to Qiao Zijin and followed behind his wife. He tossed his jacket over his granddaughter before heading back.
Throughout the conversation, Zhou Zheng didn’t once look at Qiao Zijin, let alone talk to her. He marched forward as if Qiao Zijin was invisible.
As a man who was cheated on, Zhou Zheng never wanted to have anything to do with Qiao Zijin anymore.
He had never loved Qiao Zijin, but he settled down and treated Qiao Zijin the best he could. However, Qiao Zijin turned out to be the one cheating on him! If it were legal to kill, Qiao Zijin would have been burned to ashes.
The Zhou family left without looking back. All they cared about was Zhou Ying, and Qiao Zijin was like a stranger to them. Qiao Zijin stomped her feet. She knew that the Zhou family wasn’t as righteous as they acted. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have treated her so well all these years.
Once she had taken care of Qiao Nan, the Zhou family would realize that she valued more than they could imagine. When the time came, she wanted to see if the Zhou family could still keep their calm.
In the middle of the starry night, Qiao Zijin had no choice but to call a taxi to a bus stop before taking a bus home.
The worst situation that Qiao Zijin had in mind was to take the Zhou family’s car to the Qiao’s residence. She even imagined that the Zhou family might take her in and try to revive her marriage with Zhou Zheng.
The reality was far from her dreams, and she didn’t seem to have any luck. The Zhou family didn’t even bother to offer her a ride. They left straight after taking Zhou Ying, and Qiao Zijin didn’t even get a chance to say anything.
She also knew that mentioning anything that hinted at the Zhou family to give her a ride would make her a laughingstock. If that happened, she could never stand up against the Zhou family again.
Someone as prideful as Qiao Zijin would never allow that to happen. Therefore, she changed transportation twice to save the cost and arrived at the Qiao’s residence at one in the morning.
Qiao Zijin’s target wasn’t the Zhou family. Although she believed that Zhou Zheng must have missed her deep within his heart, she had to deal with Qiao Nan first before coming back to this.
When her true value was revealed, the Zhou family would all come running to her again. She could prove to everyone that she was better than Qiao Nan. No matter what position Qiao Nan held, she was the one at the top of the food chain!
Qiao Zijin cheered herself up as she fell asleep.
Qiao Nan knew about Qiao Zijin leaving the capital. When Qiao Zijin bought a train ticket to the capital, Qiao Nan knew about it as well. The one who relayed the message to her was no one but Zhou Zheng’s mother.
She knew that Qiao Zijin wanted to control Qiao Nan, but she never once thought that Qiao Zijin would succeed. If Qiao Nan were so easy to defeat, she wouldn’t be the minister today.
Moreover, if Qiao Zijin were smart enough to defeat Qiao Nan, it would be her who married into the Zhai family and Qiao Nan that married into the Zhou family.
Everyone could boast, but boasting would never be turned into reality. Therefore, Zhou Zheng’s mother stood firmly by Qiao Nan. Just a short call would get her a favor from Qiao Nan, and the Zhou family could live well without Qiao Zijin.
From that perspective, the Zhou family did benefit a lot from Qiao Zijin. If it were from her foolish son, it would have been even better.
Qiao Zijin cheated on Zhou Zheng and caused the divorce. If Zhou Zheng were depressed after the divorce, the Zhai family would have to compensate as they were the ones that introduced Qiao Zijin. Qiao Zijin was out of the family anyway. They might as well make use of her to make a fortune.
Unfortunately, her son’s intelligence couldn’t even compare to his father. He was beyond foolish. The moment he divorced, he started planning the marriage with his ex-girlfriend. It was like he wanted to tell the world that he never had feelings for Qiao Zijin, and he could finally escape her grasp.
If Zhou Zheng were happy about the divorce, there would be no reason for the Zhai family to give them anything. Zhou Zheng first secured a job thanks to Qiao Zijin and found true love thanks to the divorce. He sure was a lucky man.
Zhou Zheng’s mother figured that she couldn’t stop her son, who was in his thirties, from making his own decisions. If she hadn’t spoiled her son, he wouldn’t have been so foolish. After all these years, she had finally decided to let go.
Zhou Zheng was the one to bear the consequences anyway. He would learn to make wiser choices after experiencing failures.
After ending the call with Zhou Zheng’s mom, Qiao Nan lay in Zhai Sheng’s arms. “You have heard it.”
