Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief - Chapter 2016

Chapter 2016: A Good Day for Marriage

To say that he treated Qiao Nan badly wasn’t true as he seemed to care about her. To say that he treated Qiao Nan well wasn’t true either as his uncle didn’t seem to give Qiao Nan face for some matters.

After all, based on his uncle’s capabilities, if he really wanted to give Qiao Nan face, Qiao Nan could get more than everything she had today. In the face of such a complicated old man like Zhu Chengqi, Wang Yang started to worry that if Zhu Chengqi were to live for a few more years, wouldn’t he be tortured by Zhu Chengqi so much that he became bald?

“Excuse us.” Zhai Sheng was still anxious to get married. He was willing to offer Zhu Chengqi tea to thank him for being willing to step out and help them. “Nan Nan, let’s go. We have chances to visit Old Chief Zhu in the future.”

Zhai Sheng’s words made Wang Yang’s legs go soft and he nearly fell. It wasn’t enough that they took advantage of the Zhu family today? They were going to come again and continue taking advantage? Could they not come to see that old man? He really didn’t welcome Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan to visit him. Who could be sure that they wouldn’t sense any problems from their repeated visits?

“Bride, bride…” After the wedding car drove out from the Zhu family’s house, it drove half a circle around the quad in Ping Cheng before returning to the southern quad, just like in her dreams. Children were naturally happy when they witnessed this scene. They stood in their way and asked for a lot of wedding candy so that they could fill their own pockets fully.

When Zhai Sheng carried Qiao Nan out from the car and into the house, Qiao Nan saw Qiao Dongliang, who was dressed in a refreshing suit, sitting at the main table and smiling at her. Qiao Nan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At least, it wasn’t that she didn’t have someone from her family attending the wedding today.

It was just that Qiao Nan was pretty curious how Qiao Dongliang managed to shake off Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin and attend the wedding banquet alone. Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin were only upset that they didn’t get to see her. Upon knowing that she was getting married, they would only become more fearless and confident and use this to threaten her so that she would satisfy their greed.

In short, if Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin weren’t around, they wouldn’t cause a scene at her wedding. This was considered something great to her.

“Congratulations. Wishing you happiness for a lifetime.”

“The bride’s quite pretty. She looks gentle.”

“The daughter-in-law of the Zhai family naturally couldn’t be too bad.”

A few conscientious individuals had already specially promoted Qiao Nan’s existence previously. Those comments were naturally bad, trampling Qiao Nan to her death. After hearing a lot of bad things about Qiao Nan, a number of people didn’t have a good first impression of Qiao Nan. They even thought that her image was particularly bad and that Zhai Sheng had no choice but to marry Qiao Nan after being conned by her.

However, after seeing for themselves how the bride looked like today, they didn’t feel that the bride was the kind of person as rumored. A person’s eyes couldn’t deceive anyone. If they couldn’t even tell from this, they would have lived their lives in vain all this while.

Also, all of them were men. They could tell if the bride had conned Zhai Sheng so that she could marry him or that Zhai Sheng really cherished his bride and wanted to marry her. It was obvious that Zhai Sheng was relatively satisfied with this wife and loved her.

Zhai Sheng didn’t cherish Qiu Chenxi. As such, they got a divorce after being married for three years. They guessed that this bride would remain in the Zhai family for a long time.

After confirming this, the wise individuals were naturally enthusiastic about Qiao Nan and even complimented her in an exaggerated manner. As such, the Zhai family had a great sense of judgment as well since they fancied such a daughter-in-law.

Once the attitude of the guests changed, the atmosphere became so good that it was as if Qiao Nan was equally outstanding and compatible with Zhai Sheng. The changes of these outsiders actually had little effect on Qiao Nan and the Zhai family. However, Qiao Dongliang felt relieved.

Qiao Dongliang felt guilty for sitting at the bride’s table and was lacking confidence. The bride today was his daughter. As a man who was going to marry off his daughter, he didn’t prepare anything at all. He was like an outsider, and he was actually thick-skinned enough to attend the wedding. It was estimated that such a way of marrying off a daughter was extremely rare.

All the guests the Zhai family invited were high-profile. Qiao Dongliang felt even more inferior in the face of these big shots who he couldn’t usually see. He understood that he had such a chance like today because Qiao Nan and the Zhai family weren’t calculative. Without Qiao Nan and the Zhai family, he would never be able to come into close contact with these people in his lifetime, let alone sit in a better position than these people.

Qiao Dongliang felt even more ashamed when he faintly heard people discussing that the Qiao family had benefited from raising a daughter like Qiao Nan. The truth was that not only did outsiders think this way, but Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi thought so as well. Those two women in the family were thinking of how they could make use of Qiao Nan to get more benefits after she married Zhai Sheng and became the Zhai family’s daughter-in-law.

Thankfully, Qiao Nan’s attitude became tougher and she refused to see Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. This minimized their chances of doing evil. Otherwise, Qiao Dongliang would be having a headache on how to stop the perverse behaviors of this mother-daughter pair. The more they did and the more benefits they got, the more precarious Qiao Nan’s and Zhai Sheng’s marriage would be.

If Qiao Nan really got a divorce from Zhai Sheng, Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi wouldn’t think that it was their fault for harming Qiao Nan. They would only think that Qiao Nan was useless for not securing Zhai Sheng’s heart.

Qiao Dongliang only felt a headache when he thought of those two women’s misdeeds. Even if he was drinking Sprite now and was attending his younger daughter’s wedding banquet, he only felt that the Sprite was sour and the dishes were bitter. As the head of the family, he couldn’t even control at least one of the two women. What kind of head was he?

No wonder Ding Jiayi didn’t treat him as a husband and discuss matters together with him. When something happened, she would make the decision alone. In his elder daughter’s eyes, her father was useless and she couldn’t wait to not have a father like him.

When Qiao Dongliang’s thoughts were wandering, Jiajia walked over. After sitting down, she addressed Qiao Dongliang. “Grandpa.”

“Oh, hello.” Qiao Dongliang became nervous when facing a child. He didn’t know how this girl before him was related to the Zhai family. As such, he knew that it was just a polite greeting that this girl addressed him as grandpa and that he wasn’t really like one. “Are you in high school yet?”
