“I dropped out of school early and had a lot of time to earn money at work. The first time I spent my salary of more than twenty years was to buy back the Qiao family’s courtyard which was sold to support Qiao Zijin in her university education. Then, she took all the money away and bought a house for Qiao Zijin as her dowry. I, who had worked hard for more than twenty years, was left with nothing.”
“I lost my money and even had to tolerate their humiliation and abuse. No matter how good-tempered I am, there’s a limit. After hearing their conversation, I left the hospital with the one hundred thousand yuan that I’ve finally managed to raise. However, in the process of leaving, she found out and we ended up in a tussle on the road. This caused me to be in a car accident. Speaking of which, I’ve always thought that that driver was pretty unlucky. If he didn’t accidentally bump into us arguing, even if he had to send his car for an examination, he wouldn’t have gotten into such big trouble and lost so much money.”
Three years had passed. Qiao Nan still felt sympathetic toward that driver. She felt that he was extraordinarily unlucky.
Zhai Sheng patted her back lightly as if coaxing a child. He said silently that those things had passed. No matter who it was in the future, they didn’t need to think about harming her again as he was guarding her by her side.
Qiao Nan, who didn’t feel upset, cheated quite a bit of comfort from Zhai Sheng. Qiao Nan wanted to laugh. Could it be that she had benefited?
“Brother Zhai, nobody knows that before I woke up from the coma of that car accident, I had a dream. An extraordinary dream!”
“Did this dream have something to do with your attitude toward Zhu Baoguo?” Zhai Sheng still couldn’t understand their relationship until now.
“Yes, I was forced to drop out of school when I was in the second year. I don’t know if the resentment in my heart was too deep, but in my dream, I returned to the summer vacation of that year when I was forced to drop out of school.”
Qiao Nan selectively shared her dream. “In the dream, Zhu Baoguo wasn’t dead. I saved him. Although I was only a teenager in the dream, I always felt that I was a forty-year-old auntie. I looked at Zhu Baoguo like he was my son. After that, Wang Yang continued to have bad intentions. Indeed, he even tried to scheme against Zhu Baoguo several times. If not for Wang Yang finding Zhu Baoguo earlier on the day of the middle school examinations, I feel that Zhu Baoguo wouldn’t have been so late. Wang Yang might have caused Zhu Baoguo to miss an examination on purpose!”
Middle school examinations were different from college entrance examinations. There was no such thing as repeating.
Zhu Baoguo’s grades weren’t top-notch, but under Qiao Nan’s lead, they were considered excellent.
In this premise, once Zhu Baoguo lacked an examination score in one of the subjects, his results would look horrible. Zhu Baoguo would have to spend some money to get into an ordinary college, let alone a top-notch one.
Wang Yang only had one motive, which was to harm Zhu Baoguo. If he couldn’t harm him to his death, then he would at least make him a failure in school. Of course, because of Qiao Nan’s appearance in the dream, not only did Zhu Baoguo stop keeping in contact with those people from the society, but he was also positively influenced by Qiao Nan to study hard and improve his grades.
In order to kick Qiao Nan away from Zhu Baoguo so that he wouldn’t be brought up well by her, Chen Jun appeared again. What was different was that this time, Qiao Nan didn’t fall for his tricks. What was more peculiar was that at about the same time, Zhai Sheng had already started to reveal his feelings for Qiao Nan.
“In my dream, I had a good relationship with Shi Qing. Uncle Shi didn’t pass away early. He watched Shi Qing marry Zhu Baoguo and she even gave birth to a son with him. He became a grandfather. To others, Wang Yang might have only caused Zhu Baoguo his death. To me, Wang Yang has harmed two families, causing them to lose their happiness. I heard that Shi Qing adopted a child from the orphanage. One has to know that the child Zhu Baoguo and Shi Qing gave birth to was good-looking and smart. Since young, he had grown up together with our triplets. He was such a good child…”
Zhu Baoguo was gone, needless to say about his son.
“Do you understand it now? I feel that Wang Yang killed my son and caused my grandson not to be born!” Qiao Nan treated Zhu Baoguo like a son. If that was the case, Zhu Baoguo’s son would be considered Qiao Nan’s grandson.
Because of Wang Yang, so many people who originally had a close relationship with Qiao Nan couldn’t lead a happy life. In this lifetime, Qiao Nan felt that Wang Yang, Qiao Zijin, and Ding Jiayi were three big existences. She never had a happy day with the three of them around.
Wang Yang wanted to curry favor with her or pretend to be obedient in front of her. Both wouldn’t work with Qiao Nan. As long as Wang Yang didn’t make a mistake such that she had something of his in her hands, she wouldn’t do anything to him. Of course, if Wang Yang refused to live honestly, no matter what he did or who he harmed, Qiao Nan expressed that she would eliminate this scumbag on behalf of justice!
Before this, Zhai Sheng might have been a little jealous. There wasn’t a choice. Zhai Sheng was jealous even of his biological son, let alone an unrelated male. However, after listening to Qiao Nan’s explanation, Zhai Sheng felt comfortable in his heart. He categorized Zhu Baoguo together with Da Bao and Er Bao.
“How was I like in your dream then?” In reality, Wang Yang, Zhu Baoguo, Zhu Chengqi, and even Chen Jun, this ‘ex-brother-in-law’, had appeared in Nan Nan’s dream. As Nan Nan’s husband and the father of their children, what kind of a character did he play in Nan Nan’s dream?
Qiao Nan laughed. She couldn’t help but bite Zhai Sheng’s lips. “Oh, what shall I do? It was rare for me to have a dream of a different life. However, why did I fall into your hands twice? Aside from me, at least you got married to Qiu Chenxi once. Look how pitiful I am. When I was in high school, we fell in love. When we were in university and upon reaching the legal marriage age, you pulled me to register our marriage and get the certificate. I couldn’t even have more experience of dating. After just one relationship, I got married and gave birth to the triplets quickly. Brother Zhai, don’t you think that I lost out?”
Brother Zhai and Qiu Chenxi were married for a short three years while she and Chen Jun just got into a relationship. Brother Zhai and Qiu Chenxi really got married, and thus, it was his second marriage with Qiao Nan.
Both of her first marriages were with Brother Zhai. Brother Zhai’s first marriage partner wasn’t her. She had suffered a huge loss, alright?
Zhai Sheng pinched Qiao Nan’s nose. After confirming his guess, he felt comfortable in his heart. Indeed, it was like this.
