Chapter 887 Anxious. I Am Old

If he did not have any substance, one would feel ashamed to address him as master!

Regarding this point, Qiao Nan was aware even if Zhai Sheng did not say it.

Zhai Sheng used this kind of indirect way in consideration of that pitiful pride of hers. He then spoke the truth. As such, Zhai Sheng was still the one who took care of her the most in the end. “I’m going to stay alone?” Qiao Nan was no longer declining.

“When the time comes, Shi Qing will also go through the administrative procedures to move out of the school.” How could he possibly let Nan Nan stay alone outside? It would be unsafe.

“That’s true.” Qiao Nan smiled with ease. If she had Shi Qing by her side, she would feel much more assured. “Does Shi Qing know about this?”

“She knows.”

“So, I’m the only one who doesn’t know?”

“I’m afraid that you will be stubborn.” As such, right from the beginning, Zhai Sheng did not intend to persuade Qiao Nan. When Qiao Nan had sorted out her thoughts, this matter would be easier to settle.

Qiao Nan pouted. “Do you have divine foresight?” It sounded as if she was in Brother Zhai’s clutches, like the Great Sage Heaven’s equal, who could not escape from the Wuzhi hill of Gautama Buddha. “Brother Zhai, did you utilize all your war tactics on

me?”

“If I didn’t use them on you, would I be able to be engaged with you successfully?” Zhai Sheng said, sounding helpless. It was not so easy to get a wife. If it were others who were competing with Zhou Jun, the children given birth by Nan Nan in the future would bear the surname of Zhou then.

Qiao Nan felt unjustified. “Why are you exaggerating? I’m very easy to woo!” She did not have any extraordinary requirements for her other half. She only wanted the other party to be down-to-earth. House, car, and money-she was not particular about any of them at all.

Zhai Sheng smiled gently. “Regardless of whether you are easy to woo, it is fine because you are my fiancée now.” Easy to woo? She was not easy to woo at all.

Before he had taken action, there were already a few people hitting on Nan Nan.

At the thought of Chen Jun’s current situation, there was a flicker in Zhai Sheng’s eyes. “Chen Jun and Qiao Zijin have become a couple. I heard that Chen Jun was the one who wooed your sister first. You should know that half a year ago, Chen Jun was hitting on Qiu Chenxi.”

At that time, Chen Jun simply did not take a liking to Qiao Zijin.

Who would have known that in less than half a year’s time, Chen Jun would change his mind and take the initiative to woo Qiao Zijin. Was Chen Jun willing to give up on Qiu Chenxi?

Qiu Qin had been imprisoned and the Qiu family had fallen. The problem was that although Qiu Chenxi did not have the support and backing from the Qiu family now, she still had the Shi family. The things in Old Master Shi’s hands had all been passed to Qiu Chenxi. Even if Qiu Chenxi did not become very successful, given her future achievement and status, she would still be a very difficult target for Chen Jun to reach in this life.

Qiao Nan gave a sarcastic laugh. “He gave up on a difficult target and took whatever he had on hand, lest he ended up empty-handed.”

“He wishes to be your brother-in-law?” Upon Qiao Nan’s reminder, Zhai Sheng, who had never treated Qiao Zijin as part of Qiao Nan’s family, now understood Chen Jun’s thoughts. “Wishful thinking.”

“There’s a saying that the ligaments are still intact although the bones are broken. Not to mention Chen Jun, Qiao Zijin certainly bears such thoughts too.” In particular, her mother was so certain that she would always remain as her mother. Regardless of how much her mother had let her down, Qiao Nan still had to abidingly obey her without any defiance and be filial to her in the future.

Qiao Nan only wished to say one thing: Why was she so shameless?

She did not have any feelings for Ding Jiayi. Qiao Nan felt that even though Ding Jiayi had given birth to her, she had repaid her in her previous life. Ding Jiayi gave birth to her but Ding Jiayi also caused her death. A life in return for a life. Hence, she did not owe her mother anything.

When Ding Jiayi was old, Qiao Nan would definitely not shirk the responsibility of giving her living allowances.

If Ding Jiayi wanted more or intervened in her life, Qiao Nan would just take it that Ding Jiayi was singing a song.

“Brother Zhai, Chen Jun-no, the whole Chen family is good at scheming. If he really becomes Qiao Zijin’s boyfriend, I’m worried that Chen Jun will make use of you or the Zhai family to do things. Brother Zhai, pay more attention to this.” If that was truly the case, she would also be ruined by Chen Jun and Qiao Zijin.

Zhai Sheng asked the junior soldier who was taking care of him to leave. “Don’t worry. Since I already know about Chen Jun’s plan, I won’t let him create any waves. Nan Nan, you seem to have a good understanding of the matters of the Chen family?”

Qiao Nan hesitated for a while. “I was targeted by Chen Jun. Hence, I did a lot of homework on Chen Jun’s family. At the very least, when Chen Jun started to woo me out of the blue, I started feeling suspicious of him.”

Qiao Nan had long told Zhai Sheng that Chen Jun had wooed her before. Chen Jun wooed her because he was under Wang Yang’s orders. Wang Yang’s real target was everything that belonged to the Zhu family.

How could Zhai Sheng believe these words of Qiao Nan? If investigations alone could reveal a family’s character so clearly, why would they need the police?

“The matter regarding the Chen family and Chen Jun should be settled by me. You should focus on your studies without worries. Of course, you will also let me feel assured, right?” Zhai Sheng did not hold on to the matter of the Chen family. As long as Qiao Nan did not have any positive feelings toward the Chen family, Zhai Sheng was not willing to dig too deep either.

“I will make you feel assured. If I have not told Tang Jiayun that I am already engaged, would she bully me in such a bold and fearless way?” Tang Jiayun felt that she belonged to someone else. Therefore, even if she bullied her, at the very least, the male students would not jump out to defend her. There was no ‘market’ for people who were already engaged.

Zhai Sheng said bluntly, “Even if you are not engaged, you won’t be able to get along harmoniously with people in this dormitory.”

Despite being engaged and not being a threat, Tang Jiayun bullied her. If she was not engaged, she might snatch away the limelight and pursuers. As such, it was only fearful that Tang Jiayun would attack Qiao Nan with more vicious means.

Upon hearing Zhai Sheng’s analysis, Qiao Nan admitted that it was true. However, she was also both angry and amused. “So, I still have to thank you. Fortunately, I have gotten engaged to you. This has greatly reduced the intensity of attacks from Tang Jiayun.”

Toward Tang Jiayun, this kind of people, Qiao Nan really felt very vexed and annoyed.

“Naturally, a lot of your troubles have been lessened with me around. So, Nan Nan, you were late in being engaged to me.” When Qiao Nan was in high school, he had long wanted to put a stamp on Nan Nan, lest Zhou Jun had to mention to him from time to time over the past three years about what that ‘young partner’ of his was doing, etc.

Qiao Nan rubbed her forehead. “Did we go through too many unnecessary routes? Aren’t I already wearing the ring on my finger?” Brother Zhai was still harping on stubbornly that she should have worn them a few years ago. “Brother Zhai, are you very anxious?”

Zhai Sheng sighed gently. “Anxious. I’m already old.” Given his age, not to mention engagement, he should have gotten married long ago. A little kid would already be running around his legs and calling him father.

“Hahaha...” Qiao Nan was amused by Zhai Sheng’s tone that was full of resentment. “Why did you say that you are old? You’re still young, okay? You skipped grades because you are smart. Others of your age have just graduated from college.”
