1277 Do You Want To Take Revenge?

Miao Jing did not care about the considerations and thoughts of the elder son of the Tian family. The Zhai family would not take them to heart.

When the two sons of the Tian family had formed their own families, they had already gone separate ways.

Many years ago, the second son of the Tian family had been disadvantaged. Although he had let down his resentment toward Old Master Tian and returned to the country, given his intelligence, he did not leave any chance for his elder brother.

Didn’t Old Master Tian ask his second son to go into business?

The second son lacked anything but money. Although he had just returned to the capital, he could afford a huge house in the prosperous capital. After he set his eyes on the house, he paid a reasonable price and moved in on the same day of the purchase.

He had his own house and did not move into the huge mansion that was allocated to him by Old Master Tian. Even if the elder son of the Tian family had bad ideas on his younger brother, it was not so easy for him to achieve his aims.

If Tian Dong’s erratic behavior was purely due to the influence of his elder uncle, Miao Jing could not help thinking about the Tian couple’s stance on this matter.

If Hua Hua and Dongzi were going to be together in the future, given the nature of Hua Hua’s job, the frequency of meeting the elder son of the Tian family in a year could be counted with one hand.

On the contrary, the Tian couple would be Hua Hua’s in-laws. When Hua Hua was not at home, they would have the greatest influence on Dongzi. If the couple’s thoughts were aligned with that of the elder son of the Tian family, no matter how devoted Dongzi was to Hua Hua or whether he would have a change of heart, she would not shortlist Dongzi into her potential son-in-law name list again.

Tian Dong understood what Miao Jing was inferring. He smiled. “Auntie, don’t worry. Earlier on, my grandpa had a relapse and insisted that my parents stay by his side to take care of him. Many years ago, my parents have endured sufferings before and their health is not very good. Now, they are much better and don’t need people by their side to take care of them, so they hurried me to look for Hua Hua and even made it clear to me that I am not young anymore. Hence, I have to make good use of time to resolve my personal problems.”

With a lady like Zhai Hua, it was not only Zhai Hua who was a little proud and sensitive. It was the same for the Zhai family members.

The Zhai family did not pay much attention to Tian Dong’s situation recently. Hence, they were unaware of how much suffering Tian Dong had endured in the past few months.

The biological elder uncle made use of his authority to benefit himself under the guise of serving the public, creating troubles for Tian Dong. This caused Tian Dong to face difficulties in the initial stage when he s.h.i.+fted his businesses from America to China. He faced obstructions in every matter and almost screwed up a few major business contracts.

To put it bluntly, he had only suffered so greatly during the first few years that his father started the family business from scratch in America. They were plotted against by outsiders in America. Who would have known that, twenty years later, the person who made him reminisce and go through the pains and nightmare that his father had once suffered would be his biological elder uncle?

One could imagine how furious and annoyed Father Tian and Tian Dong felt.

If they had known that this would happen, they would definitely not return to the country because of Old Master Tian’s illness. They would not have s.h.i.+fted everything that they had to the home country to allow the elder son of the Tian family to get a hold of or threaten them with it.

The elder Tian brother had been creating troubles for his nephew’s company. Old Master Tian was also truly unwell. He had been spurred on by his elder son to insist that Tian Dong’s parents guard him by his bedside. The couple was so exhausted that they had relapses of past illnesses.

Hence, Tian Dong had to simultaneously handle the issues in his company and take care of his parents who fell ill due to his grandfather.

How did Tian Dong overcome these problems in the past few months? He was the only one who knew.

“Your parents are unwell? Why didn’t I know about this at all?” Miao Jing turned pale in shock. When the Zhai family first moved to the capital, the Tian family of three had visited them before. If she had known that the Tian couple was unwell, she should represent the Zhai family to visit them, even if Hua Hua and Dongzi could not be together.

Tian Dong gave a bitter smile. “My parents had been worn out for a period. We didn’t let outsiders know about this at all.” It had been covered up well by his elder uncle. In fact, he only found out about this with Zhai Sheng’s a.s.sistance recently.

After receiving Zhai Sheng’s phone call, Tian Dong then shockingly realized that his elder uncle had done so many ‘good’ things without his knowledge.

His company met with trouble as his elder uncle had obstructed him through the government authorities. Tian Dong had never thought of relying on the Zhai family’s a.s.sistance. As a man, he wanted to start up a company. How could he burden the woman that he liked on the success and development of his company?

However, when the Tian couple was unwell and he was struggling to juggle to make both ends meet, the Zhai family did not express any concern. Even Zhai Hua did not appear to give him any word of encouragement. His heart was not made of stone. Facing such a situation, Tian Dong had been dealt with a great blow. He had wooed Zhai Hua for one year. He even began to doubt whether Zhai Hua’s heart was moved by him or whether she had ever liked him.

Fortunately…

Everything was over now!

Tian Dong did not go into details but Zhai Hua and Qiao Nan did notice that something was amiss.

Qiu Chenxi, who had been slapped in the face in public, changed her expression slightly but she reverted to her normal self very quickly. “Dongzi, so you didn’t tell Sister Zhai Hua that uncle and auntie had been unwell? Sister Zhai Hua, why don’t we do this? Dongzi is very busy with his company recently. If you wish to visit uncle and auntie, I will bring you to them. Anyway, I am very familiar with their place. They are quite good to me.”

Tian Dong was the next man after Zhai Sheng that Qiu Chenxi finally fancied.

Zhai Hua was dark-skinned. Tian Dong was fair but he was tall and big. He looked thin when he was dressed but he was not entirely skinny. No one would mistake Tian Dong for a woman despite his fair, flawless skin and beautiful facial features.

Facing such a good-looking and wealthy man, Qiu Chenxi could not help feeling tempted. One had to know. To many women, looks were everything, not to mention that Tian Dong had money in his pocket. There was nothing that Qiu Chenxi could be picky about.

There was another reason why Qiu Chenxi accepted Tian Dong as her marriage partner so readily: She had heard that Tian Dong was dating Zhai Hua as friends.

Many years ago, Zhai Sheng hurt her by ruining the marriage arrangements and abandoning her. As a result, she became a laughingstock in Ping Cheng. She could only leave her hometown, Ping Cheng, for Mo Du dejectedly and seek a life with her maternal grandparents.

Although she was out of the dark times, Qiu Chenxi had never forgotten the pain and suffering that she had endured over those few years.

If she could s.n.a.t.c.h Tian Dong away from Zhai Hua, wouldn’t Zhai Hua become upset and despaired? After taking revenge on Zhai Sheng, she was even able to slap the faces of all the Zhai family members.
