As such, Qiao Nan had never thought that such an incident was shameful or would spoil the Zhai family’s image in her mind. It was only when faced with her own matters that she became irrational and subjective.

Qiao Nan sniffled as her voice turned hoa.r.s.e. “Then, what about the old chief and Auntie Miao? Will they agree to it?” She was not that brilliant student in her dream. She did not have the t.i.tle of coming out on top in the college entrance examination, and neither did she have an impressive mentor like Lin Yuankang, much less entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to become a female diplomat. Of course, she had not graduated from Peking University since she had not even graduated from high school!

Would the Zhai family still treat her as well now that she was facing them with a different status and had nothing to her name? Would they even accept her? She had already said that marriage was not just between two people. It was between two families. Qiu Chenxi was the best example of that.

After her divorce, Qiu Chenxi had allowed herself to go wild and had even hurt her own body, thus losing the right to become a mother. Qiao Nan felt that if her marriage to Zhai Sheng would only end in divorce, she might be even less able to control herself as compared to Qiu Chenxi, and she might even give up on herself. Having happiness was nice, but it was devastating to lose it after having it.

Zhai Sheng laughed and moved to sit beside Qiao Nan, hugging her in his arms. “Don’t you know my family well enough? Can’t you feel my family’s att.i.tude toward you?” Not only would the Zhai family not reject her, but the whole family also hoped that he would act quickly to bring her home.

“But at that time, I was just a caretaker who had taken care of you for a few days. Zhai Hua treated me as a friend and Jiajia treated me as an auntie.” If she were to get together with Zhai Sheng, her ident.i.ty would completely change.

Seeing Qiao Nan’s reddened and watery eyes, looking all pitiful, Zhai Sheng could not help but peck Qiao Nan. “You little fool. Do you really think that my parents came all the way back from the capital just to see their unfilial son? They came back to see their daughter-in-law. Why do you think Wei De had such a great reaction the other day? It’s not because Wei De misunderstood our relations.h.i.+p. It’s because the Zhai family already knew that I liked you at that time and were trying to help me get into your good books. Do you understand that now?”

Qiao Nan was in a trance. She had never considered that the Zhai family had all gathered at the Zhai family’s old villa for her. She had always thought that the Zhai family had only come to show concern for Zhai Sheng because of his injury. “Do you mean that the old chief and Auntie Miao have both agreed?”

They had agreed to someone like her being with their outstanding son?

“Don’t look down on yourself. You’re the best in our eyes.” Besides, their family had no reason to disagree. The Zhai family had long ago come to the point where they would agree to anyone as long as he was willing to marry them. “So, you don’t have any more concerns now, and I can go ahead and write my marriage report?”

It was still that same old sentence. They would get married before dating. Getting married was more important and took priority over dating.

“All right.” Qiao Nan mustered up all her courage to reply to him. Yes, at their age, they did not have much time to waste. She wanted to be a mother, even if she could not be a mother to triplets. It would still be good being a mother. If she did not give birth now, it might really be too late in the future.

Now that he had officially confirmed this relations.h.i.+p, Zhai Sheng was over the moon. Because of that, he moved closer to the person he loved and did something that he had wanted to do for a long time, which was to hug Qiao Nan within his embrace and kiss her as much as he wanted.

All right, his soldiers were right. Women were fragrant, soft, and sweet. There was nothing that could compare to this. Zhai Sheng did not like sweets, but this sweetness was immeasurable!

When Qiao Nan sent Zhai Sheng off, she was completely out of breath and her lips were swollen.

Looking at Qiao Nan’s red lips, Zhai Sheng could not help but lean in for another kiss. “All right, there’s no need to send me off. Go back and have a good rest.” As a man, he did not need someone to send him off, but it did feel nice being sent off by his partner. Zhai Sheng could not wait to get married so that Qiao Nan could live with him.

“Okay.” Qiao Nan nodded. Brother Zhai had already said that he would handle their marriage. Qiao Nan did not know how much conflict other women had after marriage, but she had got along well with the Zhai family. With her experience from her dream, Qiao Nan was not at all nervous. She only felt that everything had moved a step closer to aligning with her dream.

Only after seeing Zhai Sheng drive off did Qiao Nan shut her door and sit on her sofa in a daze. It was only when she heard a series of rapid poundings on her door did Qiao Nan return from her trance and realize that she had been rather foolish today.

She glanced at the clock. It was already nine. Who could that be? Could it be Brother Zhai had left something behind or had returned to tell her something?

Thinking that it could be Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan quickly stood up. But upon seeing that it was Qiu Chenxi and not Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan’s heart sank and she shut the door without hesitation.

Unfortunately, Qiu Chenxi was prepared, and before Qiao Nan could shut the door, she had already kicked the door open, forcing Qiao Nan to back down.

Qiao Nan frowned. “Are you crazy? This isn’t the Qiu family’s house. This is a private residence. You’re trespa.s.sing. It’s illegal. I’m sorry, Miss Qiu. You’re not welcome here. Please leave.”

“You shameless vixen!” Qiu Chenxi’s face was extremely sour. She had come with the intention to beat someone up. She was not Qiu Chenxi if she did not deal with this caretaker today. She was just a mere caretaker! How dared she seduce her master! Had she watched too many drama serials?

Thinking about what she had gathered from stalking Zhai Sheng throughout the day and the scene she had witnessed at Qiao Nan’s doorstep, Qiu Chenxi was burning with rage. In the three years that she had been married to Zhai Sheng, he had never even been willing to touch a strand of her hair, but he had been so intimate and affectionate with a caretaker at the door and had even kissed Qiao Nan!

Qiu Chenxi had experience, and even with the limited lighting, Qiu Chenxi could tell that Qiao Nan’s swollen lips had not been a result of a single kiss.
