1127 Eating out of Hand

“If it were a few decades ago, I could kill him in one gunshot. He is committing the huge crime of playing rogue!”

“Old Zhai, father is right. I am not worried about other matters. Wei De came to the capital because of Hua Hua. What if he keeps appearing when Hua Hua is attending matchmaking sessions or dates with other guys?” If that really happened, Hua Hua could really forget about marrying in this lifetime.

“We don’t need to be afraid of this.” Old Master Zhai looked calm and composed. “The blind dates that we find for Hua Hua will not be cowards. Hua Hua is already of this age. Many people in society have already divorced, not to mention having dated before. If this person gives up on Hua Hua because of Wei De’s appearance and pestering, this kind of lousy goods can forget about being the son-in-law of the Zhai family.”

Wei De was very annoying, but from a certain perspective, he had become a touchstone.

Until now, Old Master Zhai firmly believed that there was no hurry. His granddaughter could take her time and she would still be able to find a good man that she fancied to get married and have kids with.

“What? Wei De came to the capital?” When they were upstairs, Qiao Nan raised her voice and shrieked when she heard Zhai Hua’s confession.

“Shhh. My little ancestor. I specially chatted with you upstairs because I don’t want the three ‘masters’ downstairs to know about this.” Zhai Hua quickly covered Qiao Nan’s mouth. After confirming that Qiao Nan had calmed down, Zhai Hua then released her hands. Her own face was in a grimace. “Tell me. What should we do about this matter? I am so vexed. I am suspecting more and more if my eyes have been blinded by a ghost in the past. Otherwise, why would I have taken a liking to a thing like Wei De?”

Although only about two months had passed, Zhai Hua had been busy with Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan’s wedding. She was so occupied that she had forgotten about Wei De.

Now that she mentioned Wei De, Zhai Hua had a feeling that it had happened so long ago.

After confirming that Zhai Hua was filled with annoyance and disgust when she mentioned Wei De and that there were no longer any feelings, Qiao Nan felt much more at ease. “Do you still remember my previous advice to you? Who has not loved a few scums before in their lifetime? As long as you don’t forget how lousy Wei De is, you don’t need to worry about other matters.”

“Wait… Do you mean that you bumped into Wei De when you were out on a date with Tian Dong? Wei De followed you? Did he speak anything in front of Tian Dong?” Wei De refused to give up. That meant he had not given up hopes on Sister Zhai Hua. He still wished to become the son-in-law of the Zhai family.

After Zhai Hua and Wei De had broken up, the Zhai family, including Qiao Nan, no longer paid attention to Wei De. They just let him perish at his own course.

However, the Zhai family knew in their hearts that Wei De’s life was definitely not good.

He did not have money and connections. Most importantly, besides sweet-talking Zhai Hua, he did not have any other capability. The only thing left of him was his most ludicrous ambitions.

A person like Wei De could only buy lottery tickets every day and wish to run into one-time good luck. If Wei De could strike it rich, no one would starve to death in this world.

The more Wei De behaved in this way, the more no one looked up to him.

On the contrary, if Wei De could appear like a man in front of the Zhai family, even if it was in the fit of pique, the Zhai family would say that he had some backbone.

“He did not utter a word. He was just fixing his eyes on and glaring at Tian Dong and me.” Zhai Hua was extremely sullen. “If Dongzi was not by my side, I would have run up to him and given him a beating. How dared he appear before me? Has he forgotten that when I just found out that his younger sister in his hometown was actually his wife who had borne a son for him, I nearly shot him dead?”

He was really not afraid of death!

Qiao Nan touched her chin. “What is Tian Dong’s reaction?”

To the Zhai family, Wei De posed a threat all because of Zhai Hua’s attitude.

Now, Zhai Hua’s expression looked as if she had seen a smelly worm whenever she mentioned Wei De. Qiao Nan could completely cast Wei De aside and ignore him.

Until now, Wei De still could not cause any waves in the Zhai family.

“I didn’t pay attention to that.” Zhai Hua looked a little lost. At that time, she was only occupied with being angry with Wei De, this shameless guy. She did not have any impression of the reaction of Tian Dong, who was standing by her side.

“When Tian Dong sent you back, did he behave oddly?”

“No. He looks almost the same as usual.”

Qiao Nan’s eyes swirled a little. “There is no hurry in this matter. We will wait and see for a few days.”

Zhai Hua scratched her head. “Wait and see for a few days? What do you mean?” Did they need to wait for something?

“Do you mean that Wei De may still come knocking at our doors?”

“That’s for sure.” Qiao Nan patted Zhai Hua. “He won’t give up without creating a din and causing you to be left on the shelves. After marrying you, his hard life will be shortened by fifty years. After marrying you, his life will come into place and be fulfilling instantly. Do you think he will give up? Right, you have seen Wei De today. How is he?”

“Nothing great.” Zhai Hua’s tone was full of disdain. “Can we not talk about him anymore? Each time I mention him, I can’t help thinking how stupid I was half a year ago. He can kick up a fuss as he wishes. He may even be of some help to us. I find some people quite annoying too. If they leave because of Wei De, this will save me a lot of trouble.”

Qiao Nan held her chin and did not comment on Zhai Hua’s words. “Let me ask you then. Did Wei De’s appearance help you chase Tian Dong away?”

Zhai Hua was heartless in her reply. “Wei De just appeared today. I am not even sure if he knows about Wei De’s matter. Will he not leave after he finds out about it?” Even if he did not leave now, he might cleverly scram as far as possible as soon as he found out.

Although her chat with Qiao Nan could not resolve some practical problems, at the very least, Zhai Hua did not feel so panicky now.

After settling her own matters, Zhai Hua started to be concerned about Qiao Nan’s situation. “Right, how are you doing in school? Did anyone bully you?”

“If I say yes, are you going to take revenge for me?”

“Why not?” Zhai Hua laughed like a ruffian. “It’s not as if I have not studied before. The children nowadays are very scheming and domineering. They also get jealous very easily. Zhai Sheng is not at home. If anyone dares to bully you, of course I have to help him protect you.” Who did not open their eyes and dared to bully the Zhai family? She had to deal with them.

Qiao Nan smiled sweetly as she leaned her head on Zhai Hua’s shoulders. Her soft and gentle demeanor made Zhai Hua’s face turn red. Zhai Hua was having goose bumps all over. She pushed Qiao Nan away uneasily. “Scram, scram, scram. Stop using this tactic on me. Do you treat me as Zhai Sheng?”

It was no wonder Zhai Sheng liked Qiao Nan so much. When Qiao Nan was acting coquettish, even a woman like her could not help feeling soft and numb.

She already felt this way. No wonder Qiao Nan had Zhai Sheng ate out of her hands.
