Chapter 1392 Offer Advice

Qing Qing had already done that, but the Feng family did not do any reflection, and worst still, Feng Cheng had never once thought about this issue at all.

s.h.i.+ Peng and Feng Cheng had a closer relations.h.i.+p during the times they were in Ping Cheng. It was as if they were back to the times when they were dating. But their relations.h.i.+p turned sour when they moved to the capital and they had different opinions of the Feng family.

s.h.i.+ Peng hoped that Feng Cheng would calm down and ignore the fact that the Feng family was her parental family and see through their true colors as well as the Feng family’s hidden intentions toward s.h.i.+ Peng and his family. If Feng Cheng did not trust her husband, she should trust her daughter, s.h.i.+ Qing.

Qing Qing was a good and well-behaved girl, but she was not close with the Feng family. Since Feng Cheng was the mother, why could she not see the reality? Her daughter could see through their true colors, while Feng Cheng was deceived by them. It was absurd.

s.h.i.+ Peng could not understand women. Although they had been married for more than twenty years, it was only during the times when they dated and the period where they lived together in Ping Cheng did they have a closer relations.h.i.+p. Once they started quarreling, s.h.i.+ Peng did not know what to do with Feng Cheng.

To s.h.i.+ Peng, Qiao Nan was more than a niece. s.h.i.+ Peng was used to treating Qiao Nan like a tree hole where he could confide and share his worries. He would seek Qiao Nan’s advice blatantly at the Zhai family’s residence, sharing his concerns with her.

s.h.i.+ Peng and s.h.i.+ Qing already had the habit of confiding in Qiao Nan back in Ping Cheng. Qiao Nan had already gotten used to it. After she moved to the capital, she was not the least surprised when s.h.i.+ Peng came looking for her. In fact, she had already guessed that he would seek her advice.

Qiao Nan still remembered the Feng family’s behavior four years ago.

Since s.h.i.+ Peng, the son-in-law, could be of great help to the Feng family, they would not let go of such a good chance. It was alright that s.h.i.+ Peng was not close to the Feng family. The Feng family could get what they wanted through their daughter, Feng Cheng. Unless s.h.i.+ Peng divorced Feng Cheng, s.h.i.+ Peng had to listen to Feng Cheng.

After s.h.i.+ Peng came looking for Qiao Nan, she offered him some advice. Firstly, she told him to put in extra effort at work and make sure that Feng Cheng could see that he was exhausted at work. Secondly, when Feng Cheng felt that she was being neglected, s.h.i.+ Peng should take one week’s leave and go on a holiday with her. Thirdly, during the holiday, s.h.i.+ Peng must make it known to Feng Cheng that he had worked very hard to make the trip happen for the two of them. Fourthly, he must let her know that after he was transferred to the capital, despite having many issues at work, the Feng family had never helped him in politics or business.

If Feng Cheng reb.u.t.ted him, given s.h.i.+ Peng’s intelligence, he should know how to use her words to apply to the Feng family.

It was inappropriate for the Feng family to help s.h.i.+ Peng, and it was the same for s.h.i.+ Peng as well.

If the Feng family ‘s excuse was that they wanted s.h.i.+ Peng to toughen himself and attain a strong foothold in the capital, then s.h.i.+ Peng could tell Feng Cheng that he was considering the interests of the Feng family as well.

Qiao Nan did not know much about the political situation in the capital, but s.h.i.+ Peng knew better than her. s.h.i.+ Peng could come up with several political reasons why he could not be close to the Feng family or help them.

It was easy to tell one what was right, but when dealing with Feng Cheng, one had to use heartfelt words to move her first.

All women would love it when her husband treated her well and loved her.

Come to think of it, s.h.i.+ Peng and Feng Cheng had been married for ages, but they had not gone on a holiday by themselves. Feng Cheng would be glad to go on a trip with her husband. After knowing all that s.h.i.+ Peng had gone through to make the trip possible, Feng Cheng would definitely be moved by him.

Moreover, Feng Cheng loved s.h.i.+ Peng and her daughter.

Last but not least, Qiao Nan told s.h.i.+ Peng to give s.h.i.+ Qing a phone call and update her about the current situation. To Feng Cheng, apart from the Feng family who was her parental family, s.h.i.+ Peng and s.h.i.+ Qing were the two dearest people to her.

Feng Cheng had been living with the Feng family for a long time and she had a close relations.h.i.+p with them. This was why the Feng family was able to influence her.

Similarly, as long as s.h.i.+ Peng and s.h.i.+ Qing were willing to work on strengthening their relations.h.i.+p with Feng Cheng, it would not be easy for the Feng family to PK s.h.i.+ Peng and s.h.i.+ Qing and for Feng Cheng to listen to the Feng family.

Qiao Nan did not know about politics. s.h.i.+ Peng would have a better insight than her.

However, after dealing with Qiao Zijin all these years, Qiao Nan was experienced with how to deal with siblings who fought among themselves as well as the mind games and schemes within the family. If she were to give a lesson, it would take days to impart all the knowledge to s.h.i.+ Peng.

Luckily, for certain cases, once one grasped the fundamental point, all the rest would follow. After chatting with Qiao Nan, s.h.i.+ Peng thought hard about it, and he felt enlightened and was invigorated. He used the tactics that he used in his work on Feng Cheng.

s.h.i.+ Peng used to treat Feng Cheng as his wife and he had never thought of using the tactics that he deployed at work on her. After heeding Qiao Nan’s advice, and being annoyed by the disgusting behavior of the Feng family, s.h.i.+ Peng had no choice but to use the tactics on his wife.

After being cornered by her husband and her daughter, Feng Cheng had no choice but to surrender.

The Feng family had been living in the capital for ages. They should have a deeper influence than the s.h.i.+ family. Like what her husband had said, under such circ.u.mstances, it was very good of the s.h.i.+ family not to seek help from the Feng family. They did not become a hindrance to the Feng family or create trouble for them. If so, would it not be too much of the Feng family to seek help from s.h.i.+ Peng?

A married daughter was like water spilled. Qing Qing was her only daughter.

If the Feng family did well, she was not certain if it would have a positive impact on Qing Qing. But her husband had said that if the s.h.i.+ family did well, it would definitely do Qing Qing good.

After brainwas.h.i.+ng Feng Cheng, s.h.i.+ Peng’s family of three distanced themselves from the Feng family. Compared to the relations.h.i.+p they had when Qiao Nan first came to the capital for her studies, they were not as close to them now.

s.h.i.+ Qing and Zhu Baoguo performed very well in the army, particularly s.h.i.+ Qing. There were more men than women in the army. Under such situations, s.h.i.+ Qing, who was outstanding and competent, stood out among the rest. Since she had major meritorious performance in the army in her previous a.s.signment and she made minor contributions in three other a.s.signments, she would no longer be a normal soldier in the next half of the year. She would be getting a promotion.

Given Qiao Nan’s strong friends.h.i.+p with Zhu Baoguo and s.h.i.+ Qing, although she had just graduated, she would not be considered as a leader without a following. She had very competent partners and companions. However, apart from people who were close to Qiao Nan, outsiders like Deng Wenchang were clueless.
