Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief - Chapter 913

Chapter 913 Silver-Tongued

Fortunately, Qiao Nan came fully prepared. As a freshman who just finished college entrance examination this year, she was not afraid of sitting for tests.

Qiao Nan finished her written test and oral interview in a very short period of time and she did very well in them. Right now, Qiao Nan was finally given the position that she had been waiting for a long time.

Regardless of nationality, gender, or age, everyone enjoyed the company of beautiful people.

Not only was Qiao Nan beautiful, but she was also young and cheerful. She had a beautiful, sweet voice and a good temper. She was also fluent in English. The tourists found it a joy to speak with her and it left them a good memory.

Several tourists were very satisfied with Qiao Nan’s service. They offered to give her tips as this was what they did in their country to commend good service. However, Qiao Nan refused politely.

Qiao Nan was a newcomer. She felt that it was not right of her to accept their tips.

By the time Qiao Nan ended her day, she was still in high spirits although she felt tired to the bones. She reached the Lin family’s small quad and to her surprise, Shi Qing was at home. “Aren’t you supposed to be at the Feng family’s residence, being treated like the heiress of the family? Why are you back so early?”

Shi Qing propped her head on her hands, staring at Qiao Nan with a gloomy expression on her face. “That’s not it. They want me to bring you with me tomorrow. My grandpa said that if there is any misunderstanding, things will be fine once we meet up and explain clearly.”

In short, the Feng family had yet to give up. They still wanted to meet Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan was amused. “I am just an outsider to the Feng family. At most, I am your classmate and your friend. I am not someone important. Even if we have any misunderstanding, so be it. I understand what they mean, but why do I have to join them for a meal? Doesn’t this seem like a treacherous plot?”

Shi Qing was put in a difficult position. “Qiao Nan, how will I know? Do you know anything?”

Qiao Nan was not someone who spoke indiscriminately. She must have known something to say that the meal was a treacherous plot.

Qiao Nan shook her head. “Not for now. But the Feng family’s attitude is indeed strange. They are elders, while I am their junior. According to our Chinese customs, the elders would not apologize to me. Talking to me would be seen as giving in to me. If you were me, wouldn’t you find it odd that the Feng family is so insistent on treating you to a meal?”

Qiao Nan touched her chin. She was not so charismatic that it made the Feng family be interested in her.

“Shi Qing, let me ask you a question. If you feel that dirty linen should not be aired in public, you can choose not to answer. If you feel comfortable, you can tell me as much as you like. How about that?”

“Sure.” Shi Qing hesitated and thought seriously about it before she nodded.

“Back then, what was the Feng family’s attitude when Qiu Chenxi said that she wanted to be engaged to Brother Zhai? The Feng family knew that Qiu Chenxi kept bullying you in the Shi family, and Old Master Shi was biased toward Qiu Chenxi. Did they say anything about that?” The more Qiao Nan thought about it, the more she felt that what the Feng family wanted had nothing to do with herself.

Since the Feng family was not interested in her, it would only mean that the Feng family was interested in the people around her—for instance, Brother Zhai.

“Well…” Shi Qing thought about it carefully. “They would be angry on my behalf whenever they heard that I was bullied by Qiu Chenxi and grandpa was biased toward her. They would feel wronged on my behalf. They said that my grandpa was blind to like Qiu Chenxi more than me, that I am actually so much better than her.”

“Then, did they teach you to fight for what you want? For instance, did they tell you to retaliate when bullied by Qiu Chenxi, or that when Old Master Shi was being biased, you had to point it out on the spot?”

“No.” Shi Qing shook her head honestly. “They told me that grandpa is old and muddleheaded, that I should not anger him since he is advanced in years. They also said that if I suffer any grievances, I should tell them instead. Since he is my grandpa, it is unnecessary for me to anger him and lose my temper. As for Qiu Chenxi, she was a guest at the Shi family and would have to leave eventually. My grandpa would not be biased toward her forever. I am the one who would have his love and attention in the end. Similarly, Qiu Chenxi would only bully me for the time being and would leave the house sooner or later. Since she is my sister, I couldn’t provoke her. The only way out was to avoid her as it would be narrow-minded of me to take issue with her.”

It turned out that it was because of the Feng family that Shi Qing was so tolerant of Qiu Chenxi.

If not for the Feng family who persuaded Shi Qing to give in to Qiu Chenxi, causing her to develop the habit of tolerating Qiu Chenxi’s obnoxious ways, given Shi Qing’s temper and physical abilities when she fought with Zhu Baoguo back then, she would have duked it out with Qiu Chenxi long ago.

Qiao Nan sighed. She patted Shi Qing on her head. True enough, the Feng family was insistent on apologizing to her and treating her to a meal because they were after Brother Zhai.

She did not expect that after becoming Brother Zhai’s fiancée, she would be given special treatment. The family who used to look down on her now treated her like a special guest.

Qiao Nan had to admit that it was indeed good to have a capable fiancé like Zhai Sheng. It was no wonder that after learning about Chen Jun’s family background, Qiao Zijin used all means and ways to gain Chen Jun’s affection in the previous life, and her mother cooperated with her to help her achieve her goal.

Having a capable and outstanding fiancé was so much more useful than working hard by oneself.

As a student of Peking University, she was looked down upon by the elderly couple in the Feng family. However, as the fiancée of Zhai Sheng, the Feng family insisted on apologizing to her and treating her to a meal.

“What are you up to?” Shi Qing stifled the bitterness in her heart and slapped Qiao Nan’s hand away.

“Such a pitiful girl.”

“Hey, I am in no way pitiful. I admit that grandpa is muddleheaded and Qiu Chenxi is a bad person who is bent on bullying me. But my maternal grandpa and his family treat me very well. They have their difficulties as well.” Shi Qing refused to admit that she was pitiful. She was in Mo Du while the Feng family was in the capital. They had no way to help her.

That must be the case.

Qiao Nan could not stand that Shi Qing kept deceiving herself. “Poor kid, let me tell you a story.”

“Tell me a story? Do you take me for a three-year-old kid?”

“I don’t doubt your intelligence. On the contrary, a three-year-old kid will definitely not understand my story.”

“Go ahead.” Shi Qing took a few deep breaths. She knew that given Qiao Nan’s personality, what she said right now would not be pleasing to the ears.

Qiao Nan thought for a while, organizing her thoughts before she started. “There were a mother and a daughter. The daughter grew up and had a job and a boyfriend. The mother asked the daughter about her boyfriend. The daughter said that her boyfriend was a good man.”
