1001 As She Had Guessed

It might not be right to think in this way. However, Qiao Dongliang was very conscious that the Zhai family was much more well-to-do than the Qiao family. He was also worried that he would affect the relations.h.i.+p between Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng.

Qiao Dongliang had heard of what happened between Zhai Hua and Wei De.

His daughter did not come from a well-to-do family as well. Qiao Dongliang would not crack wise, saying that even though Wei De did not have a good family background, it was fine as long as he was true to Zhai Hua.

Qiao Dongliang did not express his opinion on this matter. It was up to the Zhai family to decide if they should break up.

However, Qiao Dongliang did not expect that his daughter played such an important role in this matter.

Zhai Hua refused to listen to anyone except for his daughter. Thankfully for that, otherwise, even if Zhai Hua had a good family background and was the only daughter in the Zhai family, once she married such a man, her life would be ruined.

If she married Wei De, she would have a terrible life ahead.

“Dad, how is it?” Qiao Nan, who was worried sick, calmed down slightly upon seeing her father.

Judging from her father’s expression, Qiao Nan was certain that Zhai Hua had yet to do anything rash to Wei De.

Qiao Dongliang’s expression changed. He pulled his daughter with him into the house while he motioned for others to close the door, lest the onlookers see what was going on inside. He lowered his voice and said to Qiao Nan, “Zhai Sheng has put aside Zhai Hua’s gun.”

Fortunately, he put it aside in time. Otherwise, Wei De would be lying on the floor now.

Qiao Nan turned ashen. Sure enough, Sister Zhai Hua was seriously thinking of getting rid of Wei De, that sc.u.mbag. “What exactly happened?” Why was Sister Zhai Hua so furious that she disregarded that she was a soldier, took her gun, and left the camp with the single thought of killing Wei De?

“Didn’t you know?” Qiao Dongliang was surprised. He heard that Nan Nan was the first person to find out something amiss about Wei De.

Qiao Nan was at a loss for words. “I felt that there’s something amiss about him, so I asked Brother Zhai to investigate him. Is there really something wrong between Wei Wei and Wei De?”

In the Wei family, there were the two elders, their son, Wei De, and their adopted daughter.

The adopted daughter had a son that was born out of wedlock. Wei De did not mind and brought his nephew with him and asked his girlfriend to find a good school for him and to make sure that he grew up into a useful person.

It was said that children would be small-minded after they had their own family.

Wei De was not a giving and generous man. On the contrary, he was very selfish.

Someone so selfish would not be willing to raise someone else’s son and give him the best of everything.

It was true that Qiao Nan had a lot of Wei Wei’s and Wei De’s photos.

However, even if Qiao Nan had her doubts, after failing to spot any similarities between Wei Wei and Wei De, she dared not tell anyone of her suspicions.

“Ssss… You knew about it indeed.” Qiao Dongliang sucked in his breath, amazed at his daughter’s intelligence. “That child does not resemble Wei De. How did you find out?”

Qiao Nan smiled reluctantly. “The Wei family is not complicated and the family is not big. Moreover, since there is something wrong with Wei De’s personality, I made a bold guess.”

Wei Wei was not Wei De’s nephew but his son!

Since Wei De’s so-called sister was adopted, she was not related to Wei De at all.

When Qiao Nan heard that the Wei family adopted a daughter when the country was going through such a tumultuous time, she could not help but think of the idea of a child bride.

But they were in modern society, not ancient times. The idea of a child bride seemed to be a thing of the past and would only be seen in books.

Therefore, even though Qiao Nan had thought of such a possibility, she had never shared her thoughts with anyone in the Zhai family, including Zhai Sheng.

She might dislike Wei De, but she would not speak badly of him.

“Just because of this?” Qiao Dongliang refused to believe.

Qiao Nan sighed. “Wei Wei may not resemble Wei De, but after careful observation, I notice that when Wei Wei smiles, he looks very much like Wei De.”

That was purely her gut feeling.

Whenever she had time, she would stare at the photos that Zhai Hua sent her. It was through this that she came to this realization.

Now that it had been determined that Wei Wei was the son of Wei De, Qiao Nan felt that Wei De was indeed daring.

Clearly, he wanted to marry Sister Zhai Hua, yet he dared to bring the son that he had with another woman around and he even wanted Sister Zhai Hua to educate him. Wei De was too much…

Qiao Nan felt a sharp pain in her heart. It was no wonder that Sister Zhai Hua was full of hatred and was bent on killing Wei De.

If not for her, would Sister Zhai Hua have married Wei De and listened to what he said, putting all her effort and attention on educating Wei Wei, her stepson?

The more Qiao Nan thought about it, the more fl.u.s.tered she was.

In her previous life, she was not on close terms with the Zhai family.

It was her mother who would bring up Zhai Sheng occasionally, saying that he was very capable and lived in the same quad as them. He followed his father’s footsteps and brought the Zhai family to greater heights. If not for her mother, she would not have known that Zhai Sheng had been promoted to chief.

Qiao Nan was not clear of Zhai Sheng’s situation in the previous life.

Even though she was in her late thirties when she pa.s.sed away in the previous life, she had no idea what happened between Zhai Hua and Wei De.

What Qiao Nan was most concerned about was that Wei De might have deceived everyone in the Zhai family and married Sister Zhai Hua, becoming the Zhai family’s son-in-law.

Qiao Nan was in a terrible mood at the thought of this.

Apart from Sister Zhai Hua, she also had the impulse of killing Wei De.

Chen Jun might have betrayed her in the previous life, but Qiao Nan felt that Wei De was much worse than him. He killed by subtle means.

“Sister Zhai Hua.” As soon as she entered the room, Qiao Nan saw that two persons were in a confrontation. Zhai Hua’s eyes had turned so red that she might shed red tears. Qiao Nan’s heart ached for her.

Qiao Nan hurried forward without another word. She hugged Zhai Hua tightly, patting her back lightly. “Sister Zhai Hua, it is okay. Everything will pa.s.s. Don’t be angry. Don’t be upset. Don’t be hard on yourself. It is not worth it.”

Qiao Nan spoke to Zhai Hua in a soft, gentle, and rea.s.suring voice. She was like a mother who was coaxing her child to sleep, singing a lullaby to the child.

Qiao Nan, who hugged Zhai Hua tightly, could feel that Zhai Hua was all tensed up.
